SrATESMANSHIP.
The partisan eulogists of the late Jame B
Buchanan are acting unwisely when they
classify him among the great statesmen of
the past - generation. They thereby challenge.
a comparison with Jefferson, Madison and
Monroe; with Clay, Webster and Calhoun;
all of whbm had commanding genius, which
quality can never be fairly claimed for Mr.
Buchanan. So, too, it is school-boyish to
lament the deceased as “the last of the race
of the statesmen of the olden and better times
of the Republic.„ The olden times, were not
the better times.' They were the times of
weakness in statesmanship and in patriotism; f
the times of grovelling subserviency to a
vile anti-republicah system; the times of dis
graceful compromises made' to conciliate an
aristocratic minority that had gradually
usurped the control of the whole nation.
With all due respect to the. talents and the
memories of the statesmen of past genera-
tions, among whom Mr. Buchanan’s rank
was not high, true patriots in this age need
not . deplore the fact that there are no such
.men prominently before the public now. The
doctrine pt “principles, not men,’’ is now
generally reqeived as the true one on which
to labor for ( the. security of the Union and the
prosperity of the nation. Measured by the
old standard of statesmanship, Abraham Lin-.
• coin would not be placed among them by his
most devoted admirers. But he represented
true republican principles. He was faithful
and brave in upholding them. He was honest,
unselfish and. unambitious. No one could
have filled the Presidential office more nobly
and honorably than he did. No one could
have carried the nation through its period of
greatest trial more wisely than he did. His
predecessor,.who is" claimed as a type of the
old fashioned statesmanship, kicked the very
qualities that Mr., Lincoln possessed. Had
he continued President, Disunion would
have triumphed. Without being such a states
man, Mr. Lincoln was able to Bave the State.
He was the representative of great principles,
which are immeasurably above all individual
ideas and all individual genius.
Neither one of the existing great political
parries of this country pins its faith now to
the skirts of any prominent man or set of
men. The Republicans, in choosing, with
entire unanimity, General Grant as their can
didate for the Presidency, have not claimed
' for him any of the vaunted qualities of the
great politicians of a past generatiou.
They recognize his invaluable ser
vices to his country, and they know
that he is and always will be
faithful to the great fundamental principles of
Republicanism, fer the permanency ot which
he so long and so bravely battled at the heal
of the Union armies. If he were not a true
and tried patriot, he could never have been
nominated, even if he had possessed the kind
of statesmanship whose decline is whined
over by that class of people who can see no
glory and greatness in the events tnat have
occurred Bince 1800. Nor is Schuyler Colfax
a statesman of the old fashioned kind. He is
one of a much better kind; of .the kind that
may be said to have been created by the war
for the Union, and that is henceforth to bo
recognized as the truest and best kind of
statesmanship for a greatJßepublic.
The Democratic party, in choosing a can
didate for the Presidency, may try to bring
forward a man pretending to be of the old
Btyle of statesmen. If they do, their defeat
will _be even more easy and certain than if
they choose a progressive man, with intelli
gence enough to appreciate the wants of the
times and the changed ideas of the people.
They have, among their leaders, men of even
better talents than James Buchanan’s. But
they could not elect one of these,
‘ because -people —have- ceased- -to— wor
ehip individual genius in politicians,
and ask for fidelity, truth and sound political
principles in their candidatesffor high offices.
The statesmanship of the United States for
the future must be a . totally different.,
from the statesmanship that usfelj-td be wor
shipped in the persons of Webster, Calhoun,
Buchanan and others; that: truckled con
tinually to a Southern oligarchy; that brought
on the first rebellious movements in 1860jand
that acknowledged, in the words of James
Buchanan, that the Federal authority could
. not and dared not attempt to coerce a rebel
' lious member of the Union',
OENEUAI. OBANIiS ACCEPTANCE.
General Grant's letter of acceptance of the
nomination of the National Republican Can
: vcntion iapublißhed,and is every way worthy
; of its'distinguished author. Very brief in its
' language, and very sensible and open in its
suggestions, it will go direct "to the hearts of
the American people. Within the space off
three compact paragraphs It embodies the j
well-known viewß.of theVehoaen leader of thft;
great Republican party. Like all true sol-:
diera, General Grant desires, above all things,,
peace. . And, like all loyal men, he acknowl
edges, that peace must come under the direc
tion “of those who sustained the . country
in its recent trials.” To the mind of a man
like General Grant, there are bat two parties;
those Who were for the Union, and those who;
were for the Rebellion. He gladly, casts 'in
his lot withyflnPformer, and he recognizes
them as expressing their principles and pre
ferences in the utterances of the recent Con
vention at Ohicago. He says truly that the
Conception represented the Wisdom* modera
tion and patriotism 'of the country, and he
takes up the banner of the Republican party
with! a hearty endorsement of its principles,
and assumes his new leadership with 'the
samp modest aaaurance'lhat has marked him
in every position he has been called to fill.
General Grant has never been a politician
and never will be. If placed in the Presi
dential chair he will occupy it simply ns an
administrative officer, studying to execute
the will of the people. He takes the manly’
ground that no honest man will bind himself;
in advance to an inflexible policy which
•must run . through. four years of admiuistra-,
tion. lake his great predecessor Abraham;
Lincoln, General Grant will alwaysj
be found going before the people, not
obstinately seeking to drag them after hip,:
or madly attempting to -oppose his single
judgment to their willjbut,with cool head and
right heart and steady hand, studying always
to win the confidence and loye of the people
•by an honest devotion,to duty, andby,so
governing as always to show that he holds
himself tobethcygUllng and ,faithful servant
of the people., TiMmottO is ‘ ‘Peace!” “Let
us have peace,’’•’aM the prosperity that fol
lows peace. Pew know better than does
General Grant how the sweet genius of peace
has been frightened away from the country
by' the .the man who
now reigns supreme over the destinies
of this country, by the treachery of the
renegades. of the Senate. No man could
have been chosen by the people, more deter
mined in his notiohsof public economy, and
more inflexible in his abhorrence of corrupt
and incompetent men. General Grant’s
letter maps out his proposed administration
. bs fairly and fully as if he had filled a dozen
•columns of the newspapers, and.it will be
hailed everywhere aB a platform so broad,,
clear, simple and satisfactory, that no man
who really loves his country, no man Who
honors sterling worth, no man who recog
nizes" the great services which General Grant,
has done to this nation, need hesitate, torgive:
him his heartiest support. ' . •
BREACHES OF PBOffIISB.
The recent divorce suit in Providence,
Khode Island, illustrated very plainly the' dif
ferent , estimate which, broken-hearted and
perchancelmpecuniouß ladies, and unfeeling
and perhaps hard-hearted juries place upon
the value of lacerated affections. The plain
tiff, a widow, with surprising nicety, vcalcu-
lated that her repertoire of holy emotions
had been damaged precisely one hundred
thousand dollars’ worth. The dozen shame
less men in the jury-box thought fifteen hun
dred dollars an ample sunfzo enable her to
make repairs sufficient tojepel effectually the
next lover who should assail the fortress of
her heart* The defendant got off very
cheaply. It was worth half the sum de
manded to escape Union with creature,
and fifteen hundred dollars is a small penalty
for the infatuated folly that could contract an
engagement with her. 1 ■
But may there not, nevertheless be some
injustice in compelling him to pay even this
much? It is not by any means certain that
the breach of promise laws are not framed in
the interest of a class of persons who are not
entitled to legal protection in this direction,
and who use the statute very much as the
i gambler does loaded dice, to gain an unworthy
' and dishonorable end. It may be confidently
! asserted that US' woman who truly loved a
j man ever pursued him into court when he
i proved false to her, and disregarded his
■ plighted troth. Genuine affection cannot be
] reduced to figures.'". Cupid’s arrows do not
! leave a dollar mark, and that ancient young
i deity never was and never can be a pen
i sioner. A woman who has that fine
: sensibility which love, the, true leveller,
! gives alike to highest and lowest, could
hot endure that the details of her courtship,
, the history of each sigh, the portent ot each
| soft whisper, the text of every tender letter,
should be given to the world, . and all that
every human being holds sacredest and best
in life should be exposed to the scoffs and
sneers of an unsynfpathizing public. This
would be greater torture than the sense oi
loss and desolation consequent upon deser
tion. .
' A man cannot do a meaner or more das-,
tardly thing than win a woman’s affection and
then desert her. ‘ Society owes it to itself to •
place him under ban . and-'mark him as a
scoundreL But if the woman can gain no
consolation from the reflection that she has
fortunately escaped union with an unworthy,
man, she must bear her burden unles
sched. Greenbacks are moderatelyserviceablo'
as a circulating medium, but as assuagers of
grief they are an entire failure. If there is
pure love, and consequently sincere distress,
money is not a recompense for the bereave
ment. Jlf there is not genuine attachment,
there certainly
the case cited above, the plaintiff was really
j in love, one hundred thousand dollars was a
! hundred thousand times too little compenaa
! tion for her suffering; if she did not lo ve her
, suitor, fifteen hundred dollars was much too
I great a sum to award her. Indeed, the fact
| that she instituted the suit should have been
j prima facie evidence of her insincerity, as
j it Bhould have been the of the
; man’s good judgment, wisdom, and release
j from all moral responsibility in
I the matter. If, after parties have
contracted a matrimonial engagement, either"
of them Bhould discover qualities in the
' other which would render the obligations of
marriage insupportable, it is the manifest
duty Of both to break the contract. This is
just as much a moral obligation as any in
cumbent" upon them after wedlock.. The
.lispoßition of a woman to claim pecuniary
damages after separation- is sufficient

, The breach of promise laws, then, in
addition- to that general imperfection com
mon to ail.human.enactments, are grossly
defective "that they not only, fail utterly to
compensate those, who are truly sufferers, I
but they afford to criminals an Opportunity 1

is unworthy even. of a blind goddess. She
not Only lightens the weights of her scales,
but she adulterates the article which she
places upon, thejather end of the beam. In
this view a proper sense of propriety, the
true interests of justice, and the good of
society demand' that the breach of promise
laws shall at least be greatly modified,if they
are not wholly repealed.
CongreSß seems to have awakened at last to
the absolute necessity of reducing the tars on
whisky. Every private citizen who pos
sessed ordinary means of information has
long been familiar with the fact that tbe
cnormously'kigh tax upon distilled spirits
not only nullified its own object, but that it
was the positive source of boundless misehie £.
The.utter impossibility of collecting the tax
of two dollars a gallon, the temptation it of
fered to the dishonest distiller, the ruin it
worked to the honest /manufacturer, its
Wretched effect upon the health of those who
consumed the vile stuff manufactured,and the
wide-spread- demoralization it'' worked
among ' government officials,- form an old
story that has been ' too often rehearsed to
need repetition, andi which is so truthful that
it challenges contradiction.
For some.reason Congress could not be in
duced to look at this question as the masses
of the people looked upon it, and every effort
to bring abpiit a reform by reducing the tax
has hitherto resulted in failure. /Bat. the
scales seem to,have fallen from/, the eyes of
the advocates of a high tax, that cannot be
collected, and which breeds corruption by
wholesale and they are now. found upon the
side of those who go for a low tax that can
be collected, that discourages dishonesty and
that tends to lessen production while it in
creases revenue. Whisky set up to be King,
Politically as well as commercially,daring the
impeachment trial. The moral influence
of the “King” made all the capital which
Andrew Johnson had to rely upon outside of
the natural sympathy of the Democracy with
the.treachery of a man who.had.betrayed the
Republican party which elected him, and
there is scarcely a reasonable doubt that the
money which was ÜBed in the defence and
acquittal of the apostate President was fur
nished from the same corrupt source. It is
high time King Whisky was dethroned, aad_
it is now generally conceded that this can
only be accomplished by the redaction of the
tax to a minimum figure. Congress eoflld
not be better employed than in the prompt
settlement of this important question/
It was well that Congress should express
its formal thanks to Edwin M. Stanton for
his noble services, during and .since the Re
bellion; Andrew Johnson , has no word of
-approbation-for the-maiy ■ to' whom- - he --owes -
so much, and whose example of unblemished
fidelity' casts such a shade over the men who
Were once chosen with him to be the coun
sellors of Abraham Lincoln. But the people
■and his own conscience approve his course
and the Senate but feebly echoes the nation’ B
gratitude.
The debate in the Senate on the vote of
was ajingular one. While Fessen
den and Trumbull affected to see no connec
tion between the resolution and the impeach
ment trial, and stultified themselves, with
Van Winkle, by voting for it, Henderson,
Fowler and Ross were too far demoralized to
make even an effort to regain a momentary
footing, and bowed their necks again to their
new yoke. Their consciences told them that
the resolution condemned them and they
voted against it, and Henderson was silly
enough to add to his past follies the fresh one
of introducing a resolution of thanks to Chief
Justice Chase I For this brilliant piece of
statesmanship the poor Missouri Senator ob
tained eleven votes, including those of Ross,
Fowler and himself y.
The keen tests that are being passed
through and through the knot ot conspirators
who acquitted Andrew Johnson are thus do
ing their sure work. Grimes 1b politically, and
almost physically, dead. Fessenden, Trum
bull and Van Winkle have forever lost their
prestige and place in the Republican party.
Bpt Henderson, Fowler and Ross seem to
sink deeper at each step that they take,
and - to be seeking a fuller mea

probation. . _ . I;
It was bad enough for. the Congress, of the

Washington, June 2.— Cpto a very late hoar
last nlßht It was thought that the Democrats.had
carried this city yesterday by a very large ma
jority, and they were parading the streets in con
sequence lost night,and having a grand glorifica
tion over their supposed success.
Corrected returns, however, changed the result
and gave Mr. Bowen, the Badiual candidate for
Mayor,- thirty-sir majority. The Democrats
have one majority in City Connell, and they have
power- by throwing ont a sufficient- number of
votes to give tbe certificate of election to tho
Democratic candidate for Mayor. The Intelligen
cer thls mornlng claims that this will be done,
and charges corruption upon the Radicals.

1 Bpcclal correspondent of the Herald in Abyssinia
furnishes interesting letters from the kingdom, •
just to hand here, dated on the bank,of the
riyer Tacassa on the 30th of April, This
special intelligence conveys important but ra
therjnelancholy accounts of the present effects
produced by the British expedition, under General:
Napier, oh the political and social condition of
the -country. ■ Civil war, with its consequent
anarchv, reigned all over t%e territory at the date •
of writing. The native chiefs released from the
centralized sway of Theodoras, many of them
set personally free from his dungeons,had organ
ized and raised armies. to fight against the new
dynasty, of Gobazzq, of Lasta, the nominee of the
British as the successor of the deceased monarch.
Gobazze called out all his force, in order to main-;
tain his position. His commanding General,
named Hashesba, set oat .at.,the head of a strong
force in pnrsnit of a released chief named All,
: .who was in gctlvo hostility against the sovereign ■;
(y of Gobazze. The 'opposing, forces met and a
furiobs" battle took place between them on the
26th Of April. Gobazze’B force, under Mashesha
had many good, spldiers of the Walda-Gallas
country in its ranks, but as soon as the Wulda
ja-.n beheld their old chief, All,they, immediately
reversed their spears in the very heat of the en*
gagement, raslied to him with Ney’a.
r a my to Napoleon I.—turned their weapons
against their late commander,' Mashesha, and de
feated his army. General Mashesha was made
* prisoner by the fraternized legions of AIL Queen
Mnstevatl, supported by twelve thousand horse-;
"inen of the GaUaa country, has possession of'the
• alto of Magdola and the minis 'evacuated by the
- British soldiers." The native-priests declare that
Menelek, of Shosta, is the legitimate king to suc
ceed Theodoras, on the Debra''Tabor, or ithe
“Mountof Transfiguration.” :
'The Herald's correspondent winds up his com
munications with very sad reports of the cruel
ries practised by the late Theodoras. ■
- "i; The writer concludes ‘by stating—a most iai
.portant fact—that when the British army under
Napier has left the country completely the
Egyptians will go into it m force.— N. Y. Herald.
■ Quarter SEssioNs-Oudgo Ludlow.—Barney
’ Cannon was convicted of a charge of stealing.
Sentenced to two months.
, James Hagan was charged with committing an
assault and - battery with intent to kill James
Moon. The prosecutor alleged that-the defend
:i ant while under the influence of liquor came into
"his stored demanding more drink. „ He refused it,
; and when defendant.beoame abusive he was put
' out.,. Shortly afterwards, when Mr. Moon
stepped outside his Store, he was attacked by Ha
gan and Btabbed In two places. After the testi
mony was heardthe defendant offered to plead
" ROUty to the chargo of assault and battery. ; He
was acquitted on the second count; charging the
intent to kill. Sentenced to six months’ impri

Sbockfing Affair In iVewarbylf*
dcr aml Suicide.
(From the Newark Advertiser of the Ist!
At about half past eleven o’clock on Saturday
morning. Alonzo McCormick, of this city, killed
his wife, Maty, by shooting her through the head
with a pistol, ana? then fired a shot front-,another
pistol Into bis left breast in the region of the
heart. Although his injury is considered of a
fatal character he was still alive yesterday, with
no prospect, however, of recovery.' The facts
connected with this horrible and melancholy af
fair arc as follows McCormick was dissipated at
intervals, end when. i- -ostcatcl vas always:
crazed by thellqoor und .ordered unaccountable
for bis actions. ' , ’
, A short time since.-without the knowledge of
his patents, he married a beautiful orphan girl,,
‘ seventeen yCare of age, "who res' ‘cd with friends
in •Brooklyn. Two or three weeks ago he in
formed t'3 f.itber of the marriage, and after
wnrdsbrought his wlfo to his i. -me lit this city,
where she was kindly received by her new pa
rents and soon gained theirs affections. Last
week she returned to Brooklyn. For ttfo months
he had abstained from dissipation. On Friday
evening last he left this city to join his wife in
Brooklyn,and itis supposed that In the evening ho
met some companions who tempted him to drink.
It appears that he did not reach his wife until
about 11 o’clock on Saturday night Then she
saw him comiDg to the house, and noticing that
be was under the influence of liquor, let him in
at the basement door, and conducted him to the
room they occupied on tho second floor.
She made up a bed on a sofa and some chairs
for his accommodation, and, while thus engaged,.
it seems that he came np behind her and shot her
in the head. She fell forward, dropping on her
knees and her body resting on the bed, face
downward. He immediately thereafter shot him
self with another pistol, and also fell upon the
, bed beside his expiring wife. ’ln his coat pocket
Was found a razor, neatly wrapped up in a piece
.of paper, from which And othgr circumstances it
'is plate that ho' intended to accomplish the pur
pose he had in view with that weapon, if the'
pistols failed.. His relatives being telegraphed for
arrived yesterday. He was still alive,. and
although" greatly exhausted from the loss of,
blood, was able to recognize them. That this
action is due lo the Influence of liquor is plain
from the fact that when sober he was of a kindly
disposition,-and seemed to have the tenderest re
gard for his yonng wife.
Disaster in Wisconsin—Orcat Fires in
the Pine Woods — Sl Whole Village
Destroyed.
[From the Democrat]
, Chicago, May 29. —From the Green Bay ,-ld
cocafe of yesterday I have additional particulars
of the great fires in the pine woods, on the upper
Peninsula. Parties who saw thh {fire at Day’s
river describe It as having the appearance of a
vast whirlwind in' the shape of a funnel, travel
ing through the'woods at railroad speed, burning
everything jn its way. The first pile of wood the
fire two thousand cords of
green beoch and maple, cut during the past win-,
ter. Tho entire lot was one sheet of flamo in an,
instant, although a large quantity of water was,
thrown upon it. Help was summoned from;
Eschvava and Negaunec. Six trains were on the;
track, and with all the help they could command
it was six.or seven hours before they could get
control of the fire. ", ,
At about three o'clock tho next morning,.. after
the fire had been subdued in the wood, the fire
was heard agaiu coming from the peninsula, and;
immediately -set in flame another pile of wood,
about a mile from the flrst-named completely.
Such was its force that it jumped clear across a
small, opening and the. railroad track, before it;
reached the wood, and many of the men had their
hair and whiskers singed before they could es
cape. Tbe entire lot of wood wub destroyed. At
Palmer’s Falls. five my cadistnnt.thowholevU
lage of Charnlate was also considerably damaged.
Theentire destruction of the wood is about seven
thousand cords. Oh . Tuesday night it coto
menced.raining, which has. probably arrested the
destruction.
