PIRESIDENTIAL PLA YFULNESS.
Cross-grained people enough will be found
so carp at the visit of President Johnson to
the fichUtzenfest at Washington yesterday,
and to set downhis participation in Its amuse
ments as undignified and improper. There
are thousands of well-meaning people who
contend that elevation to office destroys, for
the one, all the personality of the individual,
and who demand the maintenance, at all times,
of s stated decorum—a sort of magisterial so
lemnity which must never be laid aside. Such
a rule of 'official life is stupid, impracticable
and Ivey undesirable. Abraham Lincoln, -
bowed with .a burden, the like of which
never before fell upon man's should
ers, once declared, with unaffected
earnestness, that he should die if
he could not occasionally relieve himself by a
playful joke or a merry anecdote. Mr. John
son has neither the same burden as Mr. Lin
coln's, nor the same keen susceptibility to
mental suffering. His nature is, in all respects,
cast in a rougher, coarser mould. But he has
a right to relaxation. The cares of state un
doubtedly worry him not a little, and if he
finds a temporary relief in mingling in the
festivities of a German Shooting Festival, in
drinking lager beer and shooting at a target,
he has a right to seek it.
'To a character constituted as Mr. Johnson's
*an excess of dignity is wearisome in the
extreme. When he said in his speech at
Cleveland, in September last, "I care
not for dignity," he simply expressed
a fact which all who knew him were
ready to recognize and endorse. Even to
men gifted with native dignity, such playful
relaxation as that in which Mr. Johnson in
dulged
. yesterday, is natural and proper, and
to one who is not so gifted by nature, it is
unreasonable and foolish to deny such en
joyments. There is nothing in Mr. Johnson's
official life which can be deemed agreeable.
Plots and counterplots, wars and rumors of
wars, intrigue and insincerity, apolitical con
science seared or very ill at ease, a sense of
dishonor and defeat, of high fame lost and a
historical future from which oblivion - would
be a blessed escape, are not the elements
best calculated_to make the Presidential chair
an easy one, or the Executive Mansion a
Paradise of peace. In such circumstanees,
Mr. Johnson is right to unbend and to seek
the few pleasures which occasionally come
in his way.
Besides, the enjoyment of a Schtiztenfbst
are, in themselves, very innocent Lager
beer is infinitely less deleterious than whisky,
and the recent Siingerfest in this city demon
strated the possibility of large holiday gather
ings of the German population without vio
lence, disorder or excess of any kind. And
shooting at a mark is a still more harutle / ss
amusement. Mr. Johnson is a practical
marksman. He has been aiming at me i rks
ever since he *as an alderman, and has won
many prizes. Of late, his aim has been less
steady. The constant irritation of his nerves,
consequent upon his contest with Congress '
and the Republican party unsettled him. He
has lost much of his steadiness: The broad
targets offered him by Sheridan and Stanton
have thus far escaped his most deliberate and
deternainsd efforts to perforate them, and his
resort to#iie Schtitzenfest may be regarded
as an admission that he is out of Practice or
in bad condition, and needs some such exer
cise to bring him up to his old capacity for
mischief. All things considered, unfavora
ble comments upon the President's visit to
the SchiAtzenfest are short-sighted, unfair and
altogether hypercritical.
THE JURY OUT.
The Surratt jury is still deliherating upon
its verdict. \ While the public mind, which
has followed the case with enbrressing interest,
has had all doubt removed as to the guilt of
the prisoner, the twelve men who, by a fic
tion of the law, are supposed to be best ca
pable of forming a verdict, are evidently at
variance upon the momentous question. The
speculations which are rife concerning the '
precise attitude of the jury are necessarily .
premature and worthless. All sorts of esti
mates have been published, (including one
which inadvertently gained admission into
the late edition of the 13131.1.rriN yesterday,)un
dertaking to fix the .precise proportions
into which the jury is divided. 'Nothing pos
itively can be known, until divulged by the
jury itself. The delay to find a verdict, in a
case so plain as this, is certainly ominous, but
it does not necessarily prove dishonesty upon
the dissenting minority of the jury. There.
are minds so constituted that they cannot
weigh evidence, and there are temperaments
so contradictory and obstinate that disagree
ment is their natural condition. It is quite
possible, perhaps probable, that there are in a
Washington jury, one or more men so in sym
pathy with Surratt that they are deter
, mined to save his neck, at the
peril of their own souls, but there
should be some evidence adduced,
before the disagreement is accounted for
upon this theory. It may well be questioned
whether twelve men, whose memories are
crammed and confused with such a "mass of
contradietory testimony, running over a pe-
Mod of many weeks, are as competent to di
gest it as those who have read the same testi
mony in print, deliberately and at their
kisure. It is to be hoped that the delay is
caused by n conscientious desire to render
true verdict,but an ultiMate failure to find such
d verdict, while it will not Shake the public
conviction of Surratt's guilt one iota, will
leave upon, a portion of the jury an ineffaci-
Me record' either 'of.the most astounding.stu
pidity or of a criminal complieity with 'the/
accused.
„
Governor Worth, of North Carolina, bb.
written a long letter urging upon the people
the necessity for a full registration of the
white voters of the State. The writer shows
very clearly that his sympathies are with the
rebel element in his State, but he is a philo
sophical and sensibly Copperhead, and in
clined to make the best of what he considers .
a rather bad bargain. In fact, he accepts the
situation, and proves to his fellow-citizens
that if they disfranchise thernselves by failing
to register, because they do not precisely
approve of the system, they will be left more
than ever at the mercy of their political oppo
nents, and will have no right to complain if
the laws enacted by them prove oppressive
and burdensome. But it is upon the question
of negro suffrage that Governor Worth dis
plays the greatest wisdom. His constituents
find this the bitterest pill of all. Ac
customed to treat the negroes as inferiors,
unworthy of any of the privileges of man
hood, it fills them with inexpressible disgust
to find them side by side with the whites at
the polls, exercising an/ influence in the
government that controls them. -This spirit
finds expression daily In persistent cruelty,
abuse, and outrage against the negroes, and
finally in a refusal on the part of the whites
to vote if the negroes are permitted to do so.
Against this silly expression of feeling
Governor Worth argtes sensibly and well.
He says :
"Whatever may be thefinal settlement of the
questions as to the 'deal equality of the two
races, or the superiority of the one over the
other, it is certain that for a long time to come,
unless humanity is to be shocked by the expul
sion or annihilation of one race or the other, this
State is to be inhabited by both races; and it is
the manifest interest of both races to ve together
in peace and friendship, each acting kindly and
justly toward the other. Every good man, who
is a wise statesman, will use all his influence
to avoid everything tending to antagonize the
races."
PIIILADELPITIA.
This is piecisely. the view of the matter
_taken by the people of the North.. While we
deprecate the efforts of politicians to win the
negro vote in behalf of the party that strove
to deny them the right of suffrage, and while
we warn the negro against cajolery and
flattery, we , have always recognized the fact
that the interests of the two races in the South
are as identical as their rights ought to be.
The soonelr the people learn this, and act
accordingly, the quicker will come the
day of perfect reconstruction. If the leading
men of/the. South would do as Governor
Worth as done,throw the weight of their in
fluence/in behalf of law• and order and the
restoration of good feeling, we might reasona- :
bly hope for an entire change of sentiment
throughout the Rebel States.
The effectiveness of the law depends as much
upbn the silent influence that it exerts in the
community as it does upon its physical
demonstration. Its mere existence, coupled
with-the fact that it receives the support of.
respectable men in communities, serves to
deter rogues from the commission of crimes
that they would certainly perpetrate if pun
ishment were not swift and certain. The
moral influence exercised by the law is the
greatest protection to honest men, and it will
become inefficient, and in the same degree,
only when men can violate' it and set it at
deflancelvith impunity. The contimied.open
lawlessness of one man will injure the prestige
of the law, and be a strong incentive to other
evil-disposed persons to do likewise: This is
precisely the position of Alderman McMullin,
and it is full time that the majesty of the law
had been vindicated in his. case. It is unnec
essary to rehearse the story of his misdeeds
and of his escape from punishment. It is
familiar to most persons in this city, and all
feel that a stop must be put now to the inso
lent ruffianism of which he has been the per
ti it' it is to be done at all. The case
of the assault on the Hope engine house has
been presented to the Grand Jury, and they
owe it to them Selves, the people aud..t.:J.s.w,
Li find a true bill against McMullin. NO'
consideration of personal friendship, political
sympathy or fear should interpOse 'in his
behalf. Nobody _made Lim superior to the
law, or even of more importance in its pre
sence than the meanest and most despicable
vagabond in the country. He is the repre
sentative of rowdyism and Killerism in this
city; the exponent of a . class of men who
systematically disregard the laws of God and
man, and it is necessary now to make an
example of him, to prove to his supporters
that the law is supreme 'and inevitable in
visiting .punishment upon , those who sin
against it. _ _
The Fenian leaders throughout the country
indignantly deny the report that "President"
Roberts has leagued himself with the Red
Republicans of Italy. This statement is pro
bably correct, for the Italian Revolutionists
are in earnest in their work,and are apt to be
exclusive in their choice of companions. But
if "President" Roberts is not conspiring in
Italy, what is he doing? Why has he gone
to Europe at all? Ills mission is certainly
not to seek the assistance of any of the Great
Powers in an effort to free Ireland. If he has
any discretion, he must understand that all of
these are likely to be entirely occupied with
continental aflitirs for some time to come, and
will be very much indisposed to meddle with
England just now, if, indeed. they ever will
be, at the instigation bf the ex-President.
Roberts rarely does a foolish thing; his Cana
dian expedition partook of that character,
but then Roberts staid at home,' and he
knows very well that it would be exceed
ingly unwise to expend time and money in en
deavoring to enlist the sympathy of Europe.
As long as Mr. Roberts's champions decline
to tell us what he is doing in Italy, it is fair to
surmise that his mission is of about the same
character as that of Mr. Stephens and the
°Mahoney, which is to expend in luxurious
retirement the money procured from the poor
Irish men and women of this country; whose
love for Ireland induced them to contribute
their earnings to a parcel of rogues, and their
sons to a cause which his brought nothing
but misery, disgrace and death to those who

ers; iS indeed remarkatic. Bitten experience
s generally the best teacher; in this instance,
f ihow.ever, disappointment seems to have had
.no discouraging effect.
The last reports from the plains are very
startling, and if true, urove that the Indians
are more than ever in earnest in their deter
mination to utterly rout the whites and' to de
feat their efforts to make the prairies
a high
way for commerce and travel. Hitherto the
hostility of the savages to the railroads has
been exhibited only in attacks upon detached
bodies of laborers;• no systematic attempt has
been made to check the progress of construc
tion, which has gone on rapidly and uninter
ruptedly. But they have begun to retognize
in the Pacific railroad their , most dangerous
enemy, and they are organizing now upon
the improved, if net entirely civilized plan
adopted by white people. On Wednesday a
large band of Indians collected upon the track
two hundred and thirty miles west
of Omaha, tore up the ties, and placed ob
structions upon the rails. They then hid
themselves, and a valuable freight train
shortly after approaching, it was wrecked,
burned,and the hands upon it murdered with
.shocking barbarity. This is the most serious
phase of the present war. Upon the con
struction of this road depends the civilization
and redemption of the far West, and to it we
look as our most effectual defence against the
Indians in the future. • If they are permitted
thus early to render it dangerous and useless,
we may well despair of accomplishing. our
design.
The recently organized Indian Com
mission is assembled in St. Louis, with
the intention of treating with these
savages, to effect their removal to new
reservations in Texas. Many persons look to
it to institute measures that shall insure
peace. We have no confidence in its
ability to do so, for the Indians will have no
faith in promises to protect them in their
rights. In the present unhappy condition of
affairs, the only hope of peace lies in a vigor
ous prosecution of hostilities, a view that
does not seem to be held by. the Government,
judging from the apparent inaction of our
troops. The Pacific railroad,above anything
else, should be • amply protected along its
whole length. A few more such raids upon
it, as that of Wednesday last, will be apt to
put a complete stop to the work upon it, and
postpone railway connection with California
for many years.
—The following notice appeared yesterday
morning in the "death notices" of the New
York Herald:
LOPEll.—ln Brooklyn, on Wednesday. Aug. 7, Palmer
Loper, in the 27th year of his age.

invited to attend the funeral, from the residence of his
uncle, William Kirkpatrick. 1,2 :Mate street, Brooklyn, on
Friday morning, at 11 o'clock. The remains to proceed to
Philadelphia.
Philadelphia papers please copy.
In Accordance with the request, the notice
of Mr. Loper's death was copied into the
BULLETIN of yesterday afternoon, tAre being
no reason to doubt' the accuracy of the an
nouncement. We are informed to-day, by a
near relative of Mr. Loper's, that the an
nouncement is:without foundation, as will be
seen by the subjoined despatch:

nouncement of to-day.

What motive can havelnquced the publica
tion of such an inexcusable falsehood it is
difficult to imagine. There is no language too
severe in which to denounce such, a wanton
outrage upon the feelings of relatives and
friends. It is almost impossible to trate out
the author pf this mischievous forge
ry, but it would be most gratifying to all con..
corned if he could be detected and punished as
ho deserves.
The new system of infantry tactics adopted
on the first instant by the War Department,
will effect an entire change in the drill of, the
army. A civilian is hardly competent / to
judge of its merits, but it has received the en
tire approbation of General Grant, and a
number of other military men, and we may
consequently rely upon . its possessing in
trinsic excellence. But it hasahver,cwin

purely American system ever introduced into
the United States army., The three systems
prepared respectively by Generals Scott,
Hardee and Casey were, like too many other
things popular with Americans, simple
adaptations from de French. The new sys
tem'was created by General Upton, and is said
to combine great simplicity with the largest
efficiency. The fact that it can be learned by
a body of undisciplined men, in about one
third the time required by the old tactics, is
of itself a strong recoMmendatien, in a
country which depends almost wholly upon
volunteer forces in time of war.

WASIIINGToN, Aug. ,B.—The National Intelli-
oencento-day says'the statement which has found
Its way into some of the public prints, to the
effect that the President has ordered that no
further communications shall be held with
Mr. Stanton, Is, we are satisfied, in
accurate. So long as he is permitted
to remain in office, official relation
must necessarily exist. It does not follow, how
ever, that he will attend Cabinet consultations.
These are,not held in virtue of law, but are purely
'discretionary with the President, who is neither
obliged to confer with his Secretaries in formal
Meetings, nor is he restricted to the heads of de
partments in'
. stx.liing advice on public af
fairs. We learnfrom an usually. well
informed source, that purpose-of-Mr.--
Johnson to allow this whole matter to remain In
abeyance for a few days, giving time for reflection
on the part of Me. Stanton and the friends who
advise him as to the course he should pursue.
If in two or three days he shall still per
sist in refusing to resign, the President
will suspend him, by giving him notice, sub
stantially. that he is thereby suspended front the
further execution of the functions of the office
of Secretary of War, and that the reasons of
this suspension will be submitted to the Senate
at the next session of Congress.

bathing ground. Unfortunately they chanced to
get into a gully, which is two or three feet below
the level of the beach. One succeeded in regain
ing • the beach, but the other two, named
Rosa O'Donnell aed Eliza NicSorley, sank be-.
low the surface. The surf boat was ruu out, and
some desperate pulling, it got alongside the
latter-named girl, barely in time to reach her be
fore•she.went to the bottom: With difficulty she
was lifted aboard in a seemingly lifeless condi
tion, and immediately taken ashore, where re
storative means were at,once applied towards re
suscitating her. Rosa O'Donnell disapp,iared
from view before the boat got near her, and not
the slightest trace of her body has been seen since.
There was ti trot on Wednesday afternoon at

Almost as suddenly succeaded by the sun. Several
times a day these sudden changes occur. Some
of these showers have been the heaviest known
in this vicinity for years past, and during their
continuance the streets have assumed the ap
pearance of creeks, and in localities where the
ground is low all the cellars of the houses have,
been flooded. The rain seems to be confined al
most entirely to Philadelphia, as at places but a
few miles distant the ground is parched, and the
farmers are complaining of the want of raid.
In and about the city there was considerable
damage done by the rains of Wednesday night
and yesterday.
The Schuylkill river rose a few inches during

houses were dangeniusly flooded, and the, occu
. pants had to beat a hasty retreat to the second
story.

the Norristown Railroad crossing, was hardy de'- -
Stroyed. but the injury does not interfere with
the running of the trains.

dam belonging to the Schuylkill Navigation
Company, was filled up with dirt and cinders,
which were washed from the Pencovd trim
Works, belongir! to, A. Roberts & Co. This in

views of Attorney General Stanbery on the Re
construction acts.
President Johnson looks upon this as a be
trayal of Cabinet and State secrets, and as an act
at variance with that comity and courtesy which
should exist between the Chief Magistrate and
his constitutional advisers. He is very indignant,
and quite resolved on the subject of Mr. Stanton's
removal.

railroad depot., The cellars of all of these houses
were flooded.
The bake-house in the rear of the confectionery
establishment of Mrs. John ilarkinson,had almost
two feet of water in it, and considerable loss was
sustained.
There are several stables located along the line
of the creek. These were also overflowed, and
the horses had to be taken out hurriedly.
The cellar of H. B. Bruner's hotel, opposite the
railroad depot, was overflowed.
At Chestnut Hill there was very little rain.
Cresheim creek and the Wissahickon were some
what swollen, but not to a sufficient extent to
cause any damage.
A double house on Highland avenue, owned by
Mrs. Annie Prater, and occupied partly by her
and partly by Alderman Rex,was struck by light
ning, The electric fluid ran down the rod, en
tered all of the rooms, ran along the barrel of ark
old musket and split the stock. No other damage
was done.

heavy showers, but they did not cause any rise In

west of the Philadelphia. Germantown and Nor
ristown Railroad, immediately north of Berks
street, was completely inundated. The juveniles
enjoyed themselveis hugely during the afternoon
by swimming about the lake which had been

The Surratt Trial—No Verdict Yet.
WASHINGTON, August 9. —At half-past ten
o'clock this morning the Surratt jury had not re
ported. They have now been out forty-seven
hours. Judge Fisher has not yet appeared. It
is now fifty-nine days, including Sundays, since
the first juror, Mr. Todd, was sworn. During the
progress of the trial 282 witnesses in all were ex
amined. The prosecution first examined 74
witnesses in chief, then 92 witnesses were ex
amined by the defence; then the prosecution fol- .
lowed in rebuttal, and after examining 73
witnesses, none others appearing,the defence was
allowed to examine 13 witnesses in our rebuttal
,pripcipsily relative to witnesses whose char

cutio resuming, examined twenty-six
witnesses in rebuttal, and the testimony closed
with the examination of four witnesses in stir
rebuttal. The per diem of the jurors to this time
amounts to $1,384. The jurors are allowed $2
per day. Four of them wow- sworn fifty-nine
days ago, and the others two days afterward.
The Government is also responsible for the hotel
bill for the jury. but it has not yet been rendered,
and Its amount is not known. The purely legal
fees to witnesses will amount in $20,000.
The bill for carriage hire amounts
to Besides this, It is said that
the prosecution had a large contingent
fund to draw from, and most of it has already
peen expended. The crowd in attendance is not
so great this morning as It has been on previous
occasions, and includes no females.
At this hour the tumors and conjectures arc
various, but none reliable. Indeed the jury has
been so carefully guarded that it has been impos
sible to approach the door of the room near
enough to overhear their deliberations or con
versations.
- _
At a quarter to twelve o'clock it was reported
that a bailiff in attendance upon the jury had
sent for Judge Fisher, as the jury had some
message to communicate to him. The jury has
now been out over forty-eight hours. The crowd
is again collecting in the court-room and filling
it up as on the trial days.
The prisoner was visited at the jail this morn
ing by his brother, Mr. Isaac Surratt. He is
hopeful and in good spirits. He has not, been
brought from the jail since Wednesday, when the
case was given to the jury.

The aid received frOm the 'U. S. Government in con
structing this portion. of 426 miles is:
1. A donation of 12,800 acres' of adjacent lands to the"
mile (nearly all very valuable), amounting to 5,410,00 e '

The amount of the Company's own First Mortgage
Bonds on 425 miles is $8,800,000. .
It will be seen tkat, exclusive of the land grant, the First
Mortgage Bonds represent
only about one third of , the
vaine of the property oh which they are secured. The
Company is else restrained by Its Charter from issuing its
bonds except as the work progresses, and to the earns
amount on the various sections as are issued by the Go

is made to Hon. E. D. Morgan. U. it S nator, from New

of Representatives, from Massachusetts, as Trustees. who
alone can issue the Bonds to the Company, and who are
responsible for their issue in strict accordance with the
terms of the law.
A statement of the earnings for the last quarter will be
published in detail at an early elsy ; but the accounts are
already,eufliciewly balanced to show that the net amount
is much greater than the gold interest on the bonds that.

remembered that these-earl:um. hre only upon a way bu

intended to show that these Bonds are strictly one of the
safest as well as one of the most profitable securPlca,,and
are fully entitled to the confidence of the public. The
Company make no appeal' to the public to purchase its
Bonds, an the daily subscriptions are large, and fully equal'
to their wants.
Many parties are taking advantage of the present high
price of Government stocks to exchange for these Bonds,
which are over 15 per cent. cheaper, and, at the current
rate of preniium on gold, pay
Over Nine Per Cent. Interest.
