oppressive feeling in the head, which gradually
merges into a severe, heavy pain in the tempinesses,

taste in the month, and offensive breath, end the tongue

Ike Inane in the head and pain in the temples, take a
large dove of Sehenck's Mandrake Pills, and in an hour or
Iwo they will feel as well as ever. This has been tried by

will not be troubled with it once in three months.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills are composed of e a number

THE REPUltiLitecV CONVJENTIori.
The Republican State Convention trine.
seted its important business, yesterday,
promptly and well. The re-nomination of
General Hartranft and Colonel Campbell as
Auditor-General and Surveyor-General meets
with universal approbation. The continuance
of these two good public servants it office is
not only a well-merited compliment to them,
but it indicates that the Republican party is
ready to endorse and reward those who prove
themselves honest and capable.
The nominations of Gen eral Grant for the
Presidency and Governor Curtin for the Vice
Presidency are also highly gratifying re
sults. The name of Grant, strong as it is,
gains additional strength, not only in Penn
sylvania, but throughout the loyal States,
from that of Andrew G. Curtin. During the
whole war it was his good fortune to wield the
great influence of Pennsylvania, and the whole
country knows how steadfastly he bent
every power of the State toward the one great
end of crushing out the Rebellion. There is
no man in all this great Commonwealth who
is, to-day, so deservedly popular as Andrew
G. Curtin. There is no need to rehearse his
shims to this popularity at this late day.
Suffice it to say that no nomination can be
made at Chicago that will make so strong a
lieket for Pennsylvania as the nomination of
Grant and Curtin.
The resolutions adopted by the Convention
are broad, clear and national in their tone
and - spirit. The sacredness of the public debt
and the purity of the ballot-box, which have
so recklessly assailed by the Democratic
ray, are strongly affirmed. The impeach
ment of the President is approved, and the
bold attitude of Secretary Stanton is com
mended and endorsed. The platfordi is a
very simple one, and suggests a good model
for the National Convention at Chicago.
The prospects for the future are bright
indeed. The signal-gun from New Hamp
shire was answered back, in the enthusiasm
which pervaded the Republican Convention
of Pennsylvania. Rarely has there been a
political assemblage in- this State com
prising so large an element of the
talent, integrity and patriotism of the
people. The debates were marked by
a high degree of ability, and indicated
that, in the coming campaign, there will be
no:scarcity of earnest and eloquent men to
carry the banner of General Grant through
the State of Pennsylvania. Upon that ban
ner we hope to see, also, the name of Andrew
G. Oilcan, and with "Grant and Curtin"
there can be but one result, and that a glo
rious one for the principles of the Republican
party.
'EST POINT IN THE WAR.
The position which the graduates of West
Point occupied in the war of the rebellion
hail often been commented upon, but it is
not, by any means, generally or fairly under
stood. General Cullum's Biographical Regis
ter of West - Point; - just published, gives some
most valuable and interesting statistics on
hia whielielninfd
and well remembered. 1245 graduates of
West Point were living when the rebellion
broke out. Of these, 425 were in civil life
and 820 in the army. Of those in civil life,
only 99 joined the rebellion, all of whom, but
one, were from slave territory ; of the 820 in
the army, only 184 joined the rebellion, but
a little over one-fifth of the number. Of the
3150 graduates who were in the
linty, from the South, only 168 joined the
rebel ranks. Of the West Point graduates
who served during the rebellion, one-fifth
were killed and one-third wounded in deffince
-of their country's flag.
These figures form a noble record for
West Point. The proportion of its graduates
who remained loyal to the flag in the coun
try's greatest peril was wonderfully large,
and the value of such a body of trained Offi
cers at such a time, when the nation had to
take up a military position at a moment's
Warming, cannot be estimated. Not
only did the mass of the North
ern graduates stand firmly to
their allegiance, but one hundred and
sixty-two officers, whoa had been born on
tionthem soil and reared in the pestilent poll
tkal atmosphere that bred secession and re
bellion, were saved from the vortex of treason
• by, the yfholesome and loyal training and in
, finance of their West Point educafiOn. w.
This iesulf Ni l es the morarremarkable Whegi
cOMparedWith the effect of the - rebellion
upon men trained in other departments of the
Government, both civil and military. Four
Presidents were living when the Rebellion
began. Tyler joined the rebels; Buchanan's
influence was all in their favor; while Pierce
and Fillmore did nothing to help the cause of
the Union. Four Southern Judges were
on the Supreme bench. Wayne and
Gatrob remained loyal, while Daniel and
Campbell went over to the enemy. •Iu the
Senate, one man from the South, and he
Andrew Johnson,remained professedly loyal,
and in the House, three members only hold
fo their allegiance. In theiitate, Treasury,
Interior and Post-office Departments nearly
all the southern agents joined the Rebellion.
In the Navy, one-fourth of the whole number
of officers on the active list resigned or were
dismissed, and a very large proportion of
them enterell the rebel-service. In the Army,
-- of - thourwho-had-been—aPpointed — from - civit_
life, nearly one-half abandoned their duty and
enlisted in the rebel cause.
By such comparisons as these, it may be
seen that the Military Academy of the United
States has well deserved all the credit it has
received, as a nursery for truly loyal soldiers.
It ranks all other branches of the public
service in the substantial results of its per
manent effects upon the young men of this
country.
It is a very striking fact that out of more
than 2,200 officers graduated at West , Point,
only about two per cent. have been cashiered
or dismissed from• the army, in a period of
more than sixty years. This is a fact which
goes far to remove the impression that has
obtained some currency,that the moral tone of
the Academy is low and injurious and that
the Cadets are necessarily contaminated and
demoralized by their associations, and by the
general system of life and training.
The late war produced an extraordinary
number of young men who, coming fresh
from civil life, soon evinced a high capacity
for military service and command. 'the his
tory of the war is a long record of the cour
age, talent, devotion, ability and real military
genius of our citizen soldiers, but the best .0i
these men would be the first to acknowledge
the supreme importance of a thorough mili
taay education. The Military Academy at
West Point became a sort of school in the
field for thousands of young men who, under
the pressure of the times, rapidly acquired
from their West Point associates those prin
ciples of war which their own good civil edu
cation and natural intelligence helped them
to put into practical effect.
AFFAIRS.
The Fenian agitation,and the cost and trou
ble they give the British authorities in Ireland
and England, have at last driven Parliament
to serious consideration of the question of
reform and pacification among the Irish sub
jects of her Majesty. In the course of a de
bate on Tuesday night, Lord Clinton intro
duced a resolution the substance of which is
that the discontent of Ireland is a source of
uneasiness to the empire, and must be rem
edied; that the laws for Ireland should be
framed to suit the wishes of the people;' that
the present church, school and land Tenure
system is unjust, and that, in the opinion of
the House, these wrongs should be righted.
Here the whole subject is plainly and
moderately stated. In this country, where
education,' religion and suffrage are free, such
a system as the British have imposed upon
the Irish would not be endured for a day.
Public opinion on these subjects has ad
vanced rapidly in England of late, and with
the new Reform bill in operation and a
new Parliament chosen under it, great con
cessions to the Irish may be expected.
Already their' grievances have been put into
brief and comprehensive language by Lord
Clinton, and it remains to be seen whether, on
such a basis,a plan of relief can be devised and
adopted by the present Parliament. There is
no better way of putting down the restless
and mischievous spirit of Fenianism, in and
out of Ireland, than to give the Irish freedom
in suffrage, in representation, in religion and
in education. All malcontents would be dis-
armed by such grants, and in a few years
the island would be pacified, prosperous and
loyal to the British crown. It would be a
great blessing to mankind in general if thin
could be effected. Feniauism has been
bloody, costly and vain, thus far. It
does harm in this country, as well as in Ire
land and England, and the many thousands
of dollars, contributed by the poor Iri4ll of
both sexes,bave been wasted in impracticable
enterprises and in paying salaries to incompe
tent leaders. If Parliament can quiet the
Irikt by legislating for them as intelligent hu
man beings, entitled to the commonest privi
leges that freemen possess in other lands, the
Irish in this country, and their friends, will
have good reason for rejoicing.
TROILBLE AMONG SHE FENCE-MEN
N,ew Hampshire, as one of the preluding
shadows_of_coming _events, has carried dis
may and apprehension into the ranks of the
Bre - iffi - 'and Butter—Brigade. As - --for the
"outs," they have gone out of the business of
pursuing loaves and fishes on the Conserva
tive plea; for the chances are so decidedly
against Mr. Johnson's having any more offi
cial pap to bestow that Conservative stock
has gone down far below par in the Tooley
ite market. As for the "ins" they are in a
most perplexing quandary. They are as cau
tious as a party of thieves with a suspected
Vidocq among them; as silent as a squad of
Red Republicans with a known Napoleonic
spy within hearing. But while them is life
there is hope, and there are hungry Micaw
hers among the "ins" who have a linger
ing faith that something may yet turn up to
save the presidential source of bread and but
ter from utter discomfiture. But suppose
that Mr. Johnson has to "yield to inexorable
fate and walk the figurative plank from
which be must step into political oblivion!
"There's the rub!" and consequently there is
sore perplexity in the camp. This morning,
in the Custom House, Mint and Navy Yard,
as the fuller returns came in from New
Hampshire, and as the action of the State
Convention was perused, the Bread and But
terites got up scenes that were as good as a
play. Andrew and his chances of escape
formed the great topic.
"And when they spake of him, they shook their
• • heads. , • •
And wbisper'd one snother in the ear;
And he, that spoke, did gripe the 'hearesAtrristv
Whhet he, that beard, made fearful action, -
With wrinkled brows, with nods, with rolling
eyes." •
We implicitly believe that if an effort were
to be made at this moment to get up a meet
ing of federal office-holders to give aid and
comfort to Andrew Johnson it would prove to
be a dead failure. Not that they love Andrew
less, but that they love bread and butter
more, and men who are afflicted with a
weakness for this sort of official diet do not,
as a general thing, care to' identify them
selves with a lost cause. The`' men who are
astraddle of the fence which separates the
Republican fold from the Copper-Johnson
Democracy are dropping oil one by one into
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.-PHIL 11.,T I `DAY, MARCH 12 1868.
the Ben Wade side; there will be a regular
scramble for safe quarters as soon as the
righteous verdict of the High Court of Im
peachment is given, and then the Democracy
will proceed to kick out Andrew Johnson
and all of his "inclining."
The little State orNew Hampshire and-t
great State of Pennsylvania have spoken
very distinctly, and their utterances arc not
calculated to ' afford much, comfort to the
apostate of the White House. In the first,
the battle was fought upon the clearly defined
issue of the expulsion of Andrew Johnson
from the office which he disgraces. The
popular judgment was distinct and emphatic.
In Pennsylvania, it was but one party that
recorded its abhorrence of the man and his
treachery; but it was the party that elected
him in Ibti4, and every man who voted in
his interest in New Hampshire, and all who
differ from the denunciations of the Pennsyl•
vania Republican Convention as enunciated
yesterday, denounced and opposed him four
years ago. There is scarcely a historical
parallel for the experience of this man; with
DO friends except his old revilers, and with
no other claim upon their regard than his
treachery towards these who had lifted him
into place and power.
It is not generally known that the law now
requires that returns of Incomes should be
made to the United States Assessors before
the lst of March in each year. Those who
fail, to do this are liable to a penalty. The
law does not require notice to be given,
either individually or by publication.

A CONDITION OF AFFAIRS.
Qnr readers will remember that a short time
ago the Honorable Colonel E. Livingston Price
offered,-In-the-Assetubly, a portentious-preamble
and resolution, declaring that the country was
in "a penod of peril." and "surrounded by a
condition of &Haim" which has not been sines
heard from. Mr. Nixon, yesterday revived the
recollection of this funny. resolution, _by intm
&tang the following :
Whereas, The Democratic party Ls "in a period of peril.
and tun minded by a condition Madeira." in New lierup•
abire, "thet may precipitate a revolution" in the Politica
of New Jerrey at anv mmikent; therefore..
Raeford. That the Quartertneater-tiezeral, aided by the
member from Newark. m
instructed to obtain. at. any
Price information in regard to the number. calibre and
condition of the Democratic ordnance !tome andanmin
ml foe
now on hand. and report how long be thinks it will
he Lefore the party will be in a lighting candid :n.
The Democratic members did not seem to ap
preciate the joke,and Mr. Hendrickson suggested
that the preamble and resolution be laid on the
table until after the Connecticut election. This
motion was not acted upon, probably, for . the
reason that the Democratic members were of the
opinion that the farther they went the worse
they would fare.
But es if the joke was not good' enough
already, Capt. Whelan (Dear ), of Union, lent it
additional point by inquiring of Nit% Nixon
if he had heard the election news from
New Brunswick and Orange? This was rather
We hard on the Demoeracy. It was bad enough
for them to have lost New Hampshire, for which
they bad fought SO hard, without being insulted
with an .attern pt at consolation, by the informa
tion that the Democratic constables and pound
iitepers had Leen elected in Orange and New
Brunswick. If it will reconcile Capt. Whelan
to his fate, we will gratify him by the informa
tion that the Democratic candidateA are elected
in the township of West Windsor!
THE COURTS.
—Earl REI2IICII'IS long-expected letter on the-
Irish question has been published. His scheme
for settling the Church question is to endow all
religions alike after having dig-estabUshed the
Protestant Episcopal Church, whose bishops
should no longer have seats In the House of
Lords. As regards the laud difficulty, he Is not
prepared to enter Into what he considers
the confiscation schemes now so much
favored; litit he would meet the tenant with a
compromise, which, without giving him the fee
simple of the land, will protect him against any
violation of the duties of, the landlorol, while se
curing to him a full compensation for improve-.
ments if ejected while still paying his rent.
Lcrd Russell's proposals have not met with much
support.
—" Who steals my purse steals trash," said the
great dramatist, but the editor of the Fayette
(Mies.) Ohm/tide seems to be of the contrary
opinion. In a recent number of his paper he
apolligizes for the infinitesimal amount of
matter which it. contains by explaining that
his pocket had been picked of a wallet con
taining no end of "copy." If the editor was
overwhelmid by his loss, what must have been
the feelings of the thief?

You cannot have passed throw h your several

lions n Ithout having derived very accurate knowledge of
the attire and work to which you think yourselves called,
and you cannot hive been called to this work with
out being imorresed with its itacreduese and
solemnity. The church now is celled upon to
express her assent to your conviction con.
eeinipg this call, and havingi elected von to the °thec
a the holy ministry, are now to determine whether you
are called to the pastoral work. Many . are called to
preach who are not chosen to the Christian pastoral
work; many are called to preach who are not chosen of
God to be Catalan pastors and superintend the general
interests of the church of (*Mist `Ye may preach with.

His the pastoral or ministerial office that ought to en
gross your heart acd employ your hands. This is of suffi
cient importance, to require and receive your absolute de
voternent to its fulfilment.
The question proposed in the Discipline indicate the
views of the church on this subject, as to the qualifica
tion and fitness for the ditties of the office hence
they refer to personal piety and devotement to this work.
Wocannot fulfill the ministerial work properly without
this, We must have the spirit, unction and power in our
• hearts—we mutt know experimentally of the 'tamed
truths we preach, they must permeate our being.
In carrying out our great work we must devote our
selves wholly to this one work We are required by the
book of discipline to road, meditate and pray, to lead the
people, to watch over the flock, to Instruct the children
and visit from house to house.
• My observation upon myself and others have !Relined
me to cell your attention to one or two thing': Firxt—
That nothing that relates to our preparation for
or perfonnance of this work to which our discipline re
fers with great positivenetti,l than habitt of study and
reading.
?deny men who early In life gave attention to study and
reading, with great care in pulpit preparation, who iu a
few years. alter having passed through the examinations
required by the discipline and having gained for them
selves honorable position in the ohareb, and to till what
are Styled the good appointments,feeithat they have news
character and position cam:dialled that will sustain them
•in that class of.appointmente, become more -general in
their reading, less attentive to close study, and resting
•••upon a general impression with the people concerning
them, neglect the closer application to books and prepara
tion, and • the result is that they' soon
begin to decline in mental force and activity, and lu
equal degree low the favor they had in the church and
, the intermit the ee o VKliave felt in them. and beginning

1 have feared, my brethren, that there is growing up
amongst us a eociel tendency that will prove great' Pee

painful apprehension that thin social tendency in depriv

Ilow any minister can chits spend it half day in nodal

the body. Ido not think there can he a greater change,

Rev. Mr. Boehm, of New York, now in his

Father Boehm. by request of the Bishop, ad
dressed a few remarks to the class before him,
and the Conference at large, viz.:
I feel very 'much affected generally in conference

These addresses were listened to with pro
found silence, and responded to with tears and

acclamations of praise.
Dr. Nadal, at the close of the remarks, offered
a resolution that was passed by a rising vote, re
questing that they 'be Inruisboi by the 'Bishops to

A motion prevailed that the election of dele

WAsnumnos, March I . 2.—The Board of Im

examined a number 01 witnesses. and they will
be fully prepared to proceed with the trial to

Stevens were both present at the meeting to

The friends of Mr. Chase say that he will insist
in court to-morrow that time be extended to the
President in which to prepare his case if he shall
so demand; and Mr. Chase maintains that the
trial will not commence for twenty or thirty
days yet.
The President and Gen. Sickles.
Minded Derpatch to the HAMA. Evening Bulletin.l
WASHINGTON, March l2th.—lt was tele
graphed from here several days ago that
General Sickles had been ordered to join
his regiment by the President. It waa
supposed that this had been done by the
President,. because Gen. Sickles was as
sisting the Radicals in New Hampshire. it is
learned at the War Department that Gen.
Sickleti had not been ordered to join his
regiment, but that the mistake arose from
the fact that Lieutenant-Colonel Sykes, of
the sth Regiment, was ordered to report to the
Commander of the Fifth Military District to
assume command of the 20th Regiment, lately
commanded by General Steele, decenAed.

showing how thousands of soldiers were swin
dled out of their pay by claim agents, apparently
with the knowledge of Government officers.
The Illcsrille Case.
(Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, March 12.—The supreme Court
did not commence to consider the McArdle case
until to-day, and there is excellent authority for
saying that no decision will be rendered for two
or three weeks vet, and those who are anticipa
ting a very early decision will be disappointed.

Mr. Grimes (Iowa) offered a resolution that the
present duties on merchandise imported into the
United States having been predicated upon the
internal tax on• domestic. manufacturee, the Fi
nance Committee be instructed to In nire into
the expediency of reducing them in the same
rtello-with-alo-reductlomoLthe
if any should be made.
Mr. Edmunds (Vt.) objecting, the resolution
went over.
Mr. Morgan (N. Y.), from the Committee on
Finance, reported a bill for the relief of certain
exporters of distilled spirits, with an amendment.
It allows alcohol or- rum contracted for and al
ready distilled or re-distilled prior to the passage
of the act of January, 1868, to be exported, if
done within thirty days from the passage of -this
bill on proper proof. The Committee recom
mend the extension of the period to sixty days.
- Mr. Morgan explained that it is intended to
meet the case of merchants who had already
made contracts for delivery in Africa and on the
Mediterranean before the bill named was passed.
Mr. Sherman (Ohio) denied that the bill would
open a door to frauds. All that would be neces
sary would be to show that whisky was inann
factured for exportation. Re believed that some
vessels were waiting in Boston to load with
hisky,and they might load this whisky in Nova
Scotia or some other adjacent country, and thus
the revenue bo cheated oat ot $2 a gallon.
Mr. Morrill (Vt.) thought the 'bill* porovided
sufficient guards, as it was a bill of merely a tem
porary character for the relief of persona Ettb
jected to hardships from the bill in question.
Mr. Johnson (Md.) opposed forcing citizens to
violate their legal engagement, which he
claimed would be the result if the bill was not
passed.
After further debate, the bill went over at the
expiration of the morning hour.

Mr. Van Winkle called up the IlonPA3bill gran&
ing pensions to certain soldiers and sailors of the
war of 1812.
The question wall on amendment by the Com
mittee on Pensions. An amendment striking
out the words "who are'in circumstances which
render them dependent on others for support,"
having been read, Mr. Edmunds called . attention
to the importance of this puopositioti to which
he supposed the Senate would not agree, giv
ing, as it did, not only pensions to the needy
soldiers of 1812, but to those who might be in
good circumstances.

Mr. Logan went on to say that hu would have
a document read to the House in relation to Mr.
Clark, the Superintendent of the Printing Bureau,
Xi hi ch would make "devils" blush, showing the
kind of man who had been frequently white
washed by Congress, and was now again white
washed by the Committee.
Mr. Welker (0.), a member of the committee,
desired to be understood that the committee,'so
far at-least as he was concerned, did not approve
of the manner of book-keeping as shown to have
been practiced in the Treasury in this transac
tion.
Mr. Logan asked Mr. Welker whether he saw
tbe report of the committee, the last statement
that there was nothing irregular in the matter
which was contained in it.
Mr. Welker was understood to say it was not,
but that the chairman, Mr. Van Wyck, was
authorized to make alterations and additions.
Mr. Van Wyck (N. Y.) explained that he had
-written the sentence alluded to, at the suggestion
of his colleague on the committee, (Jenekes).
Mr. Logan referring to a remark of Mr. Van
Wyck's yesterday, as to the probable effect of
hie (Logan's) statement In the money centre
of the country, ridiculed the idea, remark
ing that what either of them might
say would have no more effect upon
the government bonds than a mosquito lighting
on a buffalo born. Ho then bad read from the
minority report made by Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) in
the House several years ago. R o xtracts reflecting
very severely on the character 'of S. M. Clark,
&perk tendent of the Printing Bureau.
Mr. Randall (Pa.), as .n member of the com
mittee, said that be had not had an opportunity
of hearing the testimony or agreeing to .the re
port. lie bad, however, previously looked into
the subject of the Printing Bureau, and into Mr.
Clark's conduct and the system of printing, end
had come to the conclusion that the systemlitts /
very loose ana censurable.
lie hoped, therefore, that the gentleman from
Illinois (Mr. Logan) would not include him in
the category of whitewashing anybody.
Mr. Logan—By no meats, air.
