«VB VICE PBESIDESTS.
The people of the United States have
aot been particularly felicitous in their
choice of Statesmen to fill the position of
Vice President. The office has generally
been deemed rather ornamental than
nseful, and without thinking of possi
ble, and of late years, probable contin
gencies, all parties have been disposed
to consider it rather as a make-weight
to equalize the two sides of Mason and
Dixon’s line, on the respective electoral
tickets, without any special reference to
the important part that the second man
on the ticket might be called on to per
form in the affairs of the nation. Aaron
Durr, the third Vice President, not only
proved a traitor to his immediate political
friends, and thereby foreshadowed An
drew Johnson, but he contemplated trea
son against‘the country at and he
therein showed himself a worthy pre
decessor of the Great Apostate. John
C. Calhoun, another of the earlier Vice
Presidents, was the father of Secession,
and but for the firmness of Andrew
Jackson, he would have anticipated the
rebellion by a third of a century.
John Tyler, almost the meanest
of the entire crew of treacherous Vice
Presidents, obtained his nomination by
shedding crocodile tears over the defeat
of Henry Clay in the Harrisburg Con
vention, and he had scarcely got warm
in his accidental presidential seat before
he commenced to persecute every Mend
of his .great patron, just as Andrew
Johnson now proscribes every lover of
the great man through whose patriotic
virtues he was elevated to place and
power.
Fillmore was another Vice President
of the United •States who through an ac
cident stepped into the shoes of his prin
cipal. He signed the Fugitive Slave
bill, while he was President, and when
he ceased to be President he grovelled
down into the profoundest depths of
dough-faceism. His latest public per
formance was figuring prominently in
the reception of Andrew Johnson at Buf
falo. If both he and his latest successor
in the accidental presidency only felt
as mutually ashamed of each other as
the circumstances warranted, justice
would have been measurably satisfied.
George M. Dallas, one of our own
townsmen, was another of the Vice
Presidents of the United States. ; Mr.
Dallas’s record as a Senator
is not very clear upon the United States
Bank question, and as Vice-President
he gave his casting vote in the Senate in
favor of the tariff of *1846 and against the! 1 -
revenue laws of 1842, .thus running di
rectly counter to his own declarations and
to the pretended principles of the party
that elected him during ithe exciting
contest of 1844. Mr. Dallas was a very
respectable man and he has gone to his
final account. We make an unwilling
allusion to his career; but'as he was a
leading public man,his record cannot be
ignored when writing of the Vice
Presidents of the United States who
have failed -to meet the expectations
of the people who elected them to
office.
John G. Breckinridge was Vice
President of the United States. To say
he proved a traitor ia to use a very weak
and feeble phrase to convey a very for
midable fact. Petted and favored by
the nation above any other man of his
age, he turned traitor to it in its hour of
sorest need, and he not only failed to
defend it in its extremity, but he
raised his treasonable and parri
cidal hand against the people who
had trusted and honored him.
Like the blunt Englishman who refused
to accept an introduction to Benedict
Arnold, and who afterwards refused to
cross swords with the arch-traitor in a
duel, we leave JolinC. Breckinridge to
v the hangman, whose proper guest he is,
AnA Andrew Johnson i The last of
the Vice Presidents who have brought
-disgrace 'upon the country and sum
moned the blush of shame to the cheek
of every honest American! There is but
one man in American history whose
case even feebly resembles bis, and that
one man is John Tyler. John Tyler was
chosen as the candidate for Vice Presi
dent because of his pretended devotion
to Henry Clay, and the great name of
the latter carried the false Virginian
into office, just as the illustrious name
of Abraham Lincoln brought Andrew
Johnsonoutfrom comparative obscurity.
John Tyler’s pigmy soul prompted him
to make w;ar upon the political friends
of Henry Clay, when he had the power
to persecute them; just as the ma
lignity and treachery of Andrew
Johnson prompt him to war
upon the friends of Abraham Lincoln,
and upon the great principles of which
they are the advocates and representa
tives. John Tyler, after betraying his
party, turned traitor to his country in
the hour of its greatest extremity, and
Johnson strikes hands with
red-handed rebels while he persecutes
loyal men. So far the account is pretty
evenly balanced between the two apos
tates. But there is a still different as
pect of the case. John Tyler was a
traitor to the glorious Henry Clay, and
Henry Clay, at that time, meant politi
cally, Fiscal agent and Protective tariff,
and but very little more. Andrew John
son has turned traitor to the memory
and the principles of Abraham Lincoln;
which in this connection, mean Union,
Loyalty,* Humanity, Fdir Dealing, Love
of Country, and the Perpetuity of the
Hation itself. Just in the same degree
that Abraham Lincoln and Union
Loyalty, Humanity, Fair Dealing, Love
of Country and the Perpetuity of the
‘ Hation itself, exceed Henry Clay, Fisca
agent and- Protective'tariff in import-

ance, just- to that extent has Andrew
Jobiison fallen below John Tyler:
; "Aefisr below ftte eternal centre hurled,
j Ab fromthat centre to the etherial world." ,
The specimens of Vice Presidents
whom we have named should prompt
the people of the United States to be
more considerate of contingencies in the
election of persons to fill thiß important
place. Let them bear in mind what
some rhymster has pHt pithily and well
into verse as follows:
“The vices called Burr And Calhoun, though the first
Of our plagues sent by Heaven.were far from the worst;
Vice Tyler. Vice Fillmore, Vice Breckinridge—Bee,
These vices like their vicious graces agree!
To eclipse the bad past, the had pi esent suffices, '
Tor Johnson, I hough last, is the first of the vices.’!
We are not unmindful of the fact that
John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, George
Clinton, Elbridge Gerry, Daniel D.
Tompkins, Martin Van Buren, Bichard
M. Johnson, William R. King and Han
nibal Hamlin have been Vice Presidents
of the United States. We have endeav
ored to point but only the black sheep
in the Vice Presidential flock,and to urge
upon all parties to renumber for the fu
ture that when a wise and tried states
man is taken from Massachusetts or In
diana as a candidate for the Presidency,
it will not be sagacious and prudent to
balance the account by taking an unwise
and a doubtful nobody from Illinois or
Connecticut, for the purpose of being
run hpon the Viee Presidential ticket
With him. We have had lessons enough
in that direction. Let us profit by them.
THE VOTE OF PESSSJI.ViSIA.
At the election held on the Bth of.this
month the total vote of Pennsylvania
was about 597,000, or, in round numbers,
600,000. This is the largest vote ever
cast in the State. The increase is mainly
in Philadelphia, Allegheny and other
manufacturing counties, anff in those
where coal, iron and oil are produced.
The heaviest vote ever-polled before was
in the Presidential election of 1864, the
total then, including the army vote,
being 572,707. If a President had been
voted for at the recent election, the total
would probably have reached 620,000.
At the Presidential election of 1860,
the total vote of Pennsylvania was
476,442. In sfaat year the United States
census was tfijsen, and although we do -
not believe that justice was done to
Pennsylvania in that enumeration, the
vote for President in 1860 and that for
Governor in 1866 afford some data-by
which to estimate the present popula
tion of Pennsylvania. The reported pop
ulation in 1860 was 2,906,370. A corres
ponding ratio of the voters of this year
to the inhabitants will make the present
population about 3,647,000. If a Presi
dent had been voted for, a similar ratio
would have made it 3,700,000, and this
we believe to be about the actual num
ber of in Pennsylvania.
This corroborates the other evidences
that our State is advancing in population,
and of "course in wealth, more rapidly
than any of the old States, and at a rate
hardly surpassed by any of the young
States of the West. The population has
grown in six years about 650,000. In four
years, when the next census is taken, it
will have grown about 500,000 more,
amounting to about 4,200,000, closely
pressing New York, and threatening,
before another decade, to deprive her of
the title of the Empire State.
NEW YORK MORALS.
A writer in the North American lie
view has written a very full and free
article upon the subject of the corrup
tions and rascalities of the New York
city government. The author of the
article has gone very fully and
thoroughly into his subject, and giving
dates, names, localities and figures, he
makes out a very bad ease for the officials •
of the “Metropolis.” Scoundrelism is
the rule, and honesty the rare exception;
and villainy, that simple fair dealing
citizens would stand aghast at if they
could thoroughly understand it, is
systematically practised. In the Board
of Aldermen, and in the Common
Council, there are a few honest men
bers; but their voices are unheeded and
their votes avail nothing. Vile
scoundrels, who would not be trusted
within reach of a private pocket-book,
have the control of the revenues of a great
city; and coarse, vnlgar,ignorant fellows
from the lowest grades of society, whom.
no man of ordinary business tact and
prudence would trust with the simplest
concern of trade, have the propertyand,
incidentally, the very lives of the people
of New York at their mercy. But
the commercial metropolis gives thirty
thousand majority for the Democratic
ticket, and as a consequence, the Sixth
Ward rules Wall street; Mackeralville
takes Fifth avenue under its protecting
wing; Broadway is given over to the
tender mercies of Cow Bay, and the
people of the first city in the Union en
joy such protection in their most vital
business interests as the bullies of Moz
art, the buffers of Tammariy and the
Dead Rabbits, of the slums and "stews
will vouchsafe them.
Let only such portibds 6f the people of
New York as own real estate vote at
elections for offieials.who have the inter
ests of property umler their care; let
only those vote for officers connected
with the management of prisons, alms
houses and reformatory establishments
as have to pay the taxes ne
cessary for the support of these
institutions; limit the right of suffrage,
in respect to the officials who contiol
the expenditure of the public funds, to
those only who contribute to the raising
of these funds,and there would no longer
be thirty thousand Democratic majority
for city officials, with Dead Babbits
where there should |be intelligent busi
nessmen, and dishonest boors where
there should be honorable men with
some stake in what they are controlling.
By way of cotemporary evidence upon
this point,we clip the followiitg from an
article in the New York Times upon the
same subject:
“We believe it to be universally conceded
by .those who have given the subjeet.any at
tention .(hat the'. Government of the Oity of
; New York is the most utterly corrupt, in
efficient and disgraceful to be found in the
world. It ia not simply that it costs the
most, bnt the people receive the least in re
turn. There is no branch of it which is not
a disgrace to its rulers. The streets are
filthy; the pavements are wretched; the
public accommodations of all sorts utterly
inadequate to the public wants; jobbery,
favoritism, and open robbery characterize
every department. No public enterprise
can seoure attention or lavor but by the.
most shameless bribery. Men seek office
in-the City Government avowedly for the
opportunities offered for i money-making;
and as a matter of course the offices are
filled by the moßt .reckless and irrespanai
'ble class of onr citizens. Everything that
is done is done with a view to private profit;
and scores and hundreds of office-holders,
receiving nominally small salaries for .their
services, grow rich on the plunder of the
public.” ‘
We repeat that New York usually
gives 30,000 Copperhead majority. Per
haps this fact affords a clue to the con
dition of things municipal, as described
so mournfully by indignant Oothamite
editors and disgusted writers for re
views.
GOVEBSOB SWANS.
There are strong reasons for believing
that Governor Swann, of Maryland, in
tends to abolish the present Board of
Police Commissioners,andthus throw the
ballot-box’open to the crew of secession
ists and traitors who butchered the men
of the Sixth Massachusetts regiment in
the Btreets of Baltimore on the 19th of
April, 1861, and who strove so hard to
take Marylandont of the Union. The
Baltimore American says that almost
alljt the citizens of that city who have
taken an active part in the effort to in
duce Governor Swdnn to perpetrate this
outrage, are notoriously rebels at heart,
and many of | [them in action.
The people of the loyal North and West
have a deep interest in this question.
The road to the National Capital lies
through Baltimore, aud as they cannot,
as Mr. Lincoln once said, go around it,
or over it, or under it, they intend to go
through it. They would prefer that the
city should be in loyal hands; but they
will not have their way to the capital
barred now, anymore than they would
jn 1861, even though official and unof
ficial traitors attempt to block the path.
THE LAST DIfCH.
The local Copperhead organ, from
giving utterance to an enthusiastic
belief that the unquestionably loyal
States of the Union would disgrace their
glorious record of the last six years and
vote for traitors, or the representatives
of traitors, has been driven into looking
for comfort in a more congenial locality.
In its issue of to-day, instead of saying a
word of consolation and encouragement
to the “Dead Babbits” of New York,
and spurring on Maeberalville to stand
firm for Democracy, it says nothing to
or for aw section North of Mason &
Dixon’s Tine. It pats Governor Swann
uj&n the back upon the expressed
ground that he is a traitor to the party
that elected him, and upon the implied
one that he designs repeating New
Orleans at the coming election in Mary
land; and it appeals to the Democracy of
Delaware to come to the scratch and
offer a feeble bulwarkto the overwhelm
ing tide of defeat that is rolling onward.
Verily the Copperhead party of the
North has about reached the last ditch.
Tbe Bateman Concerts.
On Monday evening next Mr. Bateman’s’
great concert tronpewill make their first
appearance in Philadelphia, at the Musical
Fund Hall, and the great number of seats
already secured makes it certain that the
audience will be very large and fashionable.
Of course the “bright particular star” will
beMme. Parepa; but the other artists are
also.very fine, and the programme is of the
most attractive and popular character. The
lame of Parepa’s voice and style has long
preceded her, and everyone is expecting,
and justly, too, to hear a vocalist not sur
passed since the visit of Jenny Lind.
Japanese Pheasants in England.—
Eleven pheasants from Japan, lately taken
to England by the captain of a ship, have
been sold for twelve hundred dollars; a good
speculation.

TELE ITALIAN OPERA.
THE GREAT EVENT FOR MONDAY
EVENING. v
Meyerbeer's “Star of the North.’’
Last evening the merry Opera of Crispin/)
e la Coniare was repeated jat the Academy
pi Music; all the artists doing well, and
Ronconi distinguishing himself more than
ever as the cobbler. This afternoon a large
audien'ce is enjoying the Trovatore, the
ladies predominating.; I
On Monday evening Meyerbeer’s mag
nificent opera, L'Etoile du Nord, will be
played for the first time in Philadelphia,
cast to the full strength of the company.
This opera was written lin 1854 for the
Opera Comique, of Paris, where it continues
to be a favorite. Afterwards it was Italian
ized for the opera in London, and that ver
sion is the one we are. now to hear. Much
of the music of Meyerbeer’s Camp of Silesia
is introduced, including a Gipsy song and a
duet with the flute, which Jenny Lind used
to sing. The story of the opera Is given in
the following “argument” prefixed to the;
libretto: ' ■
“At the commencement of the first acta
the curtain rises on a village near Wyborg,
on Gulf of Finland. Danilowitz, a Russian
paatry-cooh, is selling his pies to a group
of shop carpenters, amongst'whom ia Peter
Miccelof, disguised. They challenge him
to drink to the health of Charles NIL of
Sweden. He refuses, and is supported by
Peter. Enraged at this, the workmen are
about to assault them, when the dock-yard
bell sounds, and they are compelled to go
to their labors. Peter remains and engages
Danilowiiz to follow him into Russia. After
Danilowitz has left the soene, a flute is
heard, and «n Peter’s replying, George, the
brother of Catharine , a eanliniere, appears
at the door of the cottage. Catharine has
gone to ask for Prascovia, the daughter of
the village innkeeper, to be given in mar
riage to her brother. Aa they drink to her
success, she comes on the stage. After
telling them that she has succeeded, she
accuses Peter and her brother of their love
for driDking, and tells the former of a
prophecy made by her mother upon
her" death-bed, respecting her future
husband. On meeting him, she
recognized something so proud and grand
in the expression of his face, that she thought
him to-hejtbove her own class in life. He
demands what she thinks now. Catharine
is offended at his tone of command, when
Prascovia rushes in. A party of Cossacks
are plundering the village, hut Catharine
volunteers to save them, and Peter deter
mines upon watching her. She then quits
the stage, and as the Cossacks are about to
pillage George's house, she re-appears in a
gipsy dress. Naming her mother—a Cos
sack fortune-teller—they remember her
After predicting their fortunes, they retire,
and George, with Prascovia, leaves the stage
to make arrangements for their wedding.
Peter and Catharine then betroth themselves
and the act terminates with her brother’s
marriage to Prascovia and his being named
in a conscription imposed npon the village.
Catharine undertaking to find him a substi
tute, for fifteen days disguises herself,
ascends the jetty, and embarks in his place,
as the marriage ceremony continues.
“In the second act, Catharine is in the
Russian camp,-disguised as a aoldier. The
Cossack, whose rise to the rank of a corpo
ral she had predicted, observes her closely
and fearing recognition, she explains to him
tbat this was foretold him by her sister.
Gritzenzo, as he is named, then tells her that
an officer who bad heard him complaining
of the Czar’s decree for shaving their beards
had given him a paper. Since this, hs has
received from him thirty or forty copecks a
day. He cannot read this paper, and Gotha
rine volunteers to explain it to Him. As
she is about doing so, Colonel YermolotT
enters, and tells the officers around hi in
that the Czar’s orders subject the officers to
the knont as well as the common soldiers.
They declare tbat they will not submit, as
Peter and Danilowitz appear in the dress of
two officers. Peter, alter despatching his
aide de camps, to order up two divisions of
the army, enters the tent prepared for his
reception. Sitting down with Danilowitz
to drink, he is recognized by Catharine,
while making love to a vivandicre
As Gritzenzo comeson to the stage to relieve
the guard, he sees Catharine looking into
the tent, and commands her to depart. She
refuses, and on being threatened with pun
ishment slaps his face. He appeals to Peter
who orders her to be shot. She prays to
him, but being intoxicated he cannot recog
nize her, and only when she has been led off
the stage does he recover his memory, and
bid Gritzenzo bring the young soldier back
to him, unless he wishes’ for a closer ac
quaintance with the knont than would be
perfectly agreeable. By this order Catha
rine ia saved, but on her return to Peter’s
teni, escapes from Gritzenzo by jumping
into the river and swimming across it. Be
fore doing so, she has thrust a paper for Peter
into the Corporal’s hand. It reveals the plot
that is on foot to cause the troopß to join the
Swedes. Yermoloff and his soldiers appear,
when Peter declares himself the Czar, and
they return to their obedience as the Tartar
grenadiers arrive.
“The third act opens with a room in the
Czar’s palace. Danilowiiz, as a special mark
offavor bybis master, has been admitted
into it. it is a model of Peter’s -workshop
In Finland. Gritzenzo enters to tell the Czar
that seme Finnish carpenters invited by
Peter, himself, as they say, have arrived,
-and is bidden to allow them to pass into
Russia. He thensupplicatesforpromotion,
in consequence of the slap bestowed upon
him by Catharine, At once recollecting
him, Peter orders him to produce the young
soldier on the morrow, otherwise he will be
shot. Amongßt the other emigrants from
Finland, George &nd Prescovia have arrived,
and Georye shows the papers of his
conscription .to Gritzenzo, who imme
diately arrests him us a sub
stitute for Catharine, and hands him over to
Danilawitz. As he is led off the stage, Peter
rushes on it. Passing the apartments of the
latter, he has heard the voice of Catharine.
Danilawitz has discovered her, but she has
loßt her reason. Peter determines to endea
vor to recall her to herself. The large doors
at the back of the dtage are thrown open.
The house of Catharine is seen, workmen
are there and advance towards her, as she
appears upon the stage. The favorite of
Peter enters dressed bb a pastry-cook once
more, then, George and Prascovia with a
wedding procession appear. Peter's flute is
beard and Bhe reoognizes it at once. Her
restoration to reason has been completed
and the curtain falls.”
