sVENING BULLETIN.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13.1866.
BOOEBB IH A BISE.
We are sorry to say that Mr. Rogers,
Hon. Andrew Jackson Rogers, of New
• Jersey, is not pleased with the result of
the last election. At the last session,
Mr. Rogers was playful, amusing, talk
ative, and nonsensical, but he was rarely
or never cross. There was an amiability
about his worst madness. He never
became abusive, nor called names. But
since then he has been home and the
people like him so well that they have
decided to keep him there, which he
does not relish, and, yesterday, he made
an exhibition of temper on the floor of
the House, painfully disappointing to
that public which has been wont to look
for a “Rogers” with the same gusto
with which they anticipate Nasby's
next letter. The subject of pun
ishing treason was before the
House, and it seems to have
had the same effect on Rogers that a
banderilla’s red cloak has upon au ill-,
tempered bull. He flew round and
round the arena, amid the shouts of the
delighted spectators, lashing himself
into hotter and hotter fury and kicking
np the dust generally, while, like skill
ful picadors, Kelley and Thayer, and
Wilson and Gfinnell planted their
barbed .fireworks in his flanks and
goaded him on to new ebullitions of
wrath. He calls Congress “a set of
• crazy fanatics;” he tells them that “they
are.worse than a long Parliament;” he
vows that they “disgrace and degrade
the people of, the country;” he de
nounces their “despotic conduct” (with
somewhat profane inaccuracy, unless he
■expects his breath to cease on the 4th of
March.next,);.and he asserts that they
are “morally guilty of treason.”
But he does not reach his climax of
.absurdity until he strikes the topic of his
. .initial-sake A. 1. Then he becomes great
He swallows the President at a single
.gulp; he swings .round the Johnsonian
circle in a single gyration. “He would
stand by the President from one end of
,his policy to the other;” and then he
,gave utterance to a sentence that will
live as long as the name of Rogers shall
survive in the memory of man. He said
that he “believed that the President
would go down to posterity as one of the
brightest jewels that had ever illuminated
the country!" This would have con
tented a common devotee at the shrine
-of our “brightest jewel,” but not so
Bqgers.and when he proceeds, with re
newed profanity, to deelare that the
Almighty would "at least have his name
written in letters of gold upon the altar
-of Christianity,” his audience may be
pardoned if the blasphemy was lost sight
-of, in the extravagant absurdity and
they received his nonsense with “loud
laughter, which- the Speaker in vain
strove to suppress.”
From this, out, this infuriated young
exile from the Fortieth Congress mean
dered off into a bewildered jumble of
.figures and flights that reminded one of
lijwthing’butjSir Boyle Roacft’afamous
■eroration: “Mr. Speaker, I smell a
fat! I see it in the breeze! I hear it
brewing in the storm! But, by the
blessing of Providence, I will yet nip it
in the bud!”
A • London correspondent of a New
York cotemporary, in speaking of the
chances of a general European war,
says:
In England there is some perturbation,
ine army cannot be raised above 50,000,
W1 a uncertain contingent of volunteers
ana militia. There is no organization to
feed or take care of what force might be de
pended upon. Conscription is out of the
question. Parliament will not vote it; the
people will not submit to it; the Government
dare not apply it to Ireland. The colonies
call on England for help in every emer
gency, but never help her in her need.
* •; » • . ■*
“There is want of vigor and loroe in the
central life. The political prestige of Eng
land has declined; her military power Is in
considerable; her credit is shattered.
* * * * » *
Then, if a war does-come, and England
cannot keep out of it, everybody knows
that an army can land on the coast, and in
three marches take London and its great
arsenal, Woolwich, when England would
be utterly powerless and at the mercy of the
invader; for. there is but one great arsenal,
one military depot, and the little army, de
feated in one action, has no line to fall back
upon, and no reserves.”
Unless all signs fail, the writer of this
passage quoted above, is right in his
opinion that England has seen her best
days. Things have changed since the
times when by. the force of cash and
pluck the “tight little island” could go
on adding discovery after discovery, and
conquest after conquest, until the sun
shone perpetually upon her possessions.
During the tunes of thePlantagenets,the
Tudors and the Stuarts, arbitrary power,
exercised over the ignorant'inasses, ena
bled the Government of England to hold
its own in war; but the realm has been
undergoing a gradual change since the
days of the Commonwealth. Cromwell
and his “Ironsides" set a ball in motion
that has not yet stopped rolling, and
that will continue to roll until it has
swept away the last relics of feudalism
which stand in the way of a just pro
gress. The Restoration of the Stuarts
was a short-lived triumph of the friends
of arbitrary power, and it only tended to
strengthen the feeling of determined
opposition to class government, which
obtained a permanent footing when
William 111. landed at Torbay. Eng
land carried on a gigantic struggle
with Napoleon; hut it was done almost
entirely by dint of cash and shrewd
statesmanship. The Continental powers
did most of the fighting and England
furnished the money.
But Great Britain has now quite as
much as she can carry in the way of I
debt. This once proud power presents I
the condition of a professedly free
Government that depends <upon the j
slavish devotion-of its subjects for sup
port, while denying to them the rights
of citizenship and while oppressing j
them by unequal lajVß. The American
colonies led off in a revolt against the I
rule of England, and the latter was un- I
able to prevent a separation; Ireland is
only kept in subjection by the strong j
hand, and were it not for the religious
dissensions among her own people the
strong hand would not be strong
enough to restrain a brave race I
who are restive under oppression. I
The people of the Canadian provinces, I
fully alive to the disadvantages of their
colonial condition,as compared with that
of the free States aiODg their southern
border,are openly advocating separation
from England and annexation to the
United States. India needs a -large j
standing army to keep itß masses in sub
jection, and except for the treasure
drawn from it, it would be a source of
unqualified uneasiness to the British
ministry in the event of a war. J
W. H. DUTTON
W. H. DUTTON.
The dullest English statesman will
not fail to see that England cannot
much loDger block the progress of free
institutions; that Bbe cannot much long
er maintain a form of government which
is founded up6n privilege and class,
without regard for the elaimsof the gov
erned who understand their rights perr
fectly well, and iu the event of a foreign
war, the masses would have “no stom
ach for the fight,” while the comforta
ble shopkeepers would be very shy of
shouldering a musket, or of putting
themselves in the way of needle-guns
or breech-loading rifles.
England does not feel in any better
state of mind in view of the great Ame
rican Rebellion, and of the part which
she took in it. The indecent haste of
her recognition of the belligerent rights
of the rebels ; her shameful disregard of
international law in the e 'sei of the
Alabama and tbe Shen ndoah, and the
open countenance ani aid which she
gave to the rebellious South upon all
possible occasions, are not forgotten
upon either side of the Atlantic. The
tremendous military power which the
war evoked, the complete triumph of
the Republic againstits enemies at home
and abroad, and the vast and unsus
pected financial resources of the coun
try, as developed by the war, have
taught England a lesson which, had she
learned it six years earlier, would have
left the pirates Semmes and Maffitwith
out the means of destroying helpless
merchantmen. England has learned
TT €r t^ n o f! aknesB aad lower of the
United States at about ihe time that she
is discovering that she ranks second to

lovingner.
hard to pi.ease.
The Democratic leaders in Congress
and the newspaper oracles of that party’
are takiDg very much toheart the declara
tion recently made by Mr. Stevens that
there is no peace.” Now this is a little
unreasonable. During the progress of
f? a^ these same people always in

dow when radical Republicans Bay that
thus' far it has not been accomplished,
the Democratic oracles aforesaid “ ’bout
ship” and declare that it has been done,
thns belittling their own pretences of
prophetic wisdom, and demonstrating
that they were either altogether wrong
in their premises, or entirely at fault in
their conclusions. The most curious
feature in the entire business is their in
tense anxiety to convict therr selves' of
blundering. -,V\^
PETBOEEEH IN THE SENATE.
That delightful humorist, Petroleum
V. Nasby, has a rival in Senator Sauls
bury, in his estimate of the proper quali
fications for Suffrage. Petroleum in his
last letter,thus discourses .on the willing
ness of the inhabitants of “Confedrit X
Roads” to extend suffrage to the negro:
“We proposeto bejust to em. We shel
give such nv em the ballot ez are suffishent -
ly lntelhjent, and we shel not put the
standard too high nuther. We she! give
every Wun nv em tbe ballot who is able to
reed the Greek testament fluently and pass
a credible examinashen in Lattin, embroid
erv, French, German, English grammar
and double-entry book-keepin. The path
to the polls yoo see is open to em.”
Saulsbury takes the same . exalted
ground, and yesterday gavehis views on
the proposition to require voters in the
District of Columbia to read and write.
With the fine scorn of one whose own
constituents are fully up to the standard
of Petroleum Y. Nasby, he exclaimed
" What was the test? A person who
could read and write his name. A wonder
ful amount of education to qualify a man
for the discharge of the high office and
trust of voting. Great knowledge of the
system of government under whioh we
It would be interesting to know how

Morrissey’s constituents can really read
