Wednesday, fiepternper VEIMON The splendid charge which the '•Grand Army of the Republic made yesterdny upon the rebel repudiators of Vermont .thrills the whole land to-day, as,the first bugle note of the coming national victory The little , Green Mountain State, always' true; always to be trusted, has out-done herself, rolling up a majority which exceeds the hopes of the most sanguine, and which strikes a well grounded terror through all the ranks of the Democracy. It is the very signal of doom,- the first grand uprising of the people against . the second rebellion,' the first practi cal demonstration of what the peo ple mean to do w ith, Ulysses Grant. A majority of Thirty Thousand in Vermont sets a ball in motion that will "go rolling on" from State to State, until it rolls up the grand aggregate which is to be the foundation of that Government of Peace, which the great warrior of the age is to inaugurate in March nest. It kindles a fire which, streaming from the beautiful green hills of Vermont, lival be answered back by the beacon fires of Maine, of Pennsylvania, of Ohio and Indi ana, and so from State to State, until the country shall be all a-glow with the fervid enthusiasm of a people rejoicing to do honor to the man of' their choice, and to re-affirm the, great principles which lie at the base of a true Republicanisin. Tire glorious victory won yesterday by the brave men of Vermont lifts the curtain upon the Trend drama of the coming Presidential struggle, and reveals the real temper and pur pose of the American People. Thousands of anxious Republicans, who have mistaken quietness for apathy. will read to-day's ne urs and cast away their idle fears with a con sciousness of the great victories whieh Ver mont prefigures. It starts life, courage, en thusiasm pulsing through every artery of the body politic, and awakens a spirit which will sweep like wildfire through every camp of the Republican army. It palsies the heart and un-nerves the arm of the enemy with its glaring evidence that the People, and not the politicians, have taken the great issues of the day into their own hands. The victory in Vermont makes victory in Pennsylvania certain. It will inspire every Republican in this city and throughout the State with the determination to make our tri umph complete. Philadelphia must move up to - the most advanced position she has ever held. She must cast her full, solid Ten Thou sand - Majority, in October, for Tyndale, Gib bons and Good Order; and, in November, add to that whatever shall seem good in her sight, for Grant, Colfax and Peace. Penn sylvania must answer back to Vermont such' an echo of greeting as the Alleghenies can send to the Green Hills. All hail, little Ver mont In the distribution of brev . et promotions (luring and immediately after the war, there were so many gallant soldiers to be re warded that it was not remarkable that, in the crowd, there were a few promotions conferred upon very undeserving cases. Men who never "set a squadron in the field," and who hate yet to smell gunpowder for the first time were, in more than one instance, foisted upon the War Department as "gallant and meritorious officers," and either igno rantly or good-naturedly raised to high brevet rank, by the side of men who won their stare by dint of brave service and hard fight ing. The attention of Congress was at last called to this abuse, and a law was passed forbidding the conferring of brevet rank ex cept for gallant service in the presence of the enemy. That such mistakes should have been made, in the midst of the overwhelming pressure of war times, was not at all remark able, but there is no possible excuse for repeating them in times of peace. And hence we watch with care every movement toward securing army promotions for men, at this late day, who did not fairly win them in the burden and heat of the rebellion. It is wrong in itself, and it is a sore injustice to brave and meritorious officers, who are thus seduced•to a level with men who were either utterly incompetent, or who came safely through the war only by means of a clever cowardice. Our attention has been culled to this subject by the announcement that an application is being urged at Washington for a brevet rank otßrigadier-General for the first colonel of the /83d Regiment P. V. This regiment was raised by the Union League of Philasielphia, and cOnsitited of excellent material. But its principal officers proved lamentably inc „taint in all respects, and, until the commAud THE DAILY' E _ _ finally devolved upon the gallant - Colonel Lynch, the regiment was = only a'source of mortification , grid trouble to the patriotic body which had organized and put it in the field. — The - colonel to - whom - the -- contmand was originally committed' was, after numerous reprimands for neglect of his duties, ordered before an examining board, whereupon he tendered his resignation,which was promptly accepted. He received notice of the acCept: ance of his resignation while his regiaient was marching toward the field of the battle of the Wilderness. He announced his inten tion of going into the fight with his command, and was about addressing the men, who were drawn up under cover before being ordered into action, when a shot struck the tree ,under which he was standing, and he immediately galloped from the field and was seen no more. This we learn from responsible officers of the regiment. That there may be no doubt as to the char acter of the present claim for promotion, we quote from the official report of this aspirant's brigade commander, with the , endorsenient of his corps commander. General Nelson A. Miles t in report to 'his superior officer, says " I will mention •incidents which may suggest reasons why this officer shduld have lett the ser vice during the time the regiment was in camp at Eitevensburg, from the 28th of March until May 3d (1864). It was then new, and needed every at tention; bid aces, grossly neglected. There was d watt of system and discipline in every depart ment,' which la accounted for by the incompetency of its commanding officer, who nexlected to In-, struct his ' officers and had no schools for officers, as required by existing orders, until reprimanded several times. His officers were without, and much' in seed of Army Regulations, tactics and blanks of all kinds, when it was discovered that the Colonel had received the regular allowance of all these, but allowed them to remain boxed up in his office for two or three weeks." Here follow quotations frorn the Inspector- General's report s shoiviiv the wretchedly neglected condition of the regiment. General Miles then gees on to say : . "I considered him totally unfit and incompe tent to command a regiment, and therefore ap plied-to-have him ordered before the examining behrol, of which Brigadier-General Webb was preaftlitt, for examination. Thereupon, he ten dered his resignation, which I approved for the good of the service." General Francis Barlow,commanding First Division, Second Corps, at the time, thus en dorses General Miles and his report : "The officers mentioned were grossly unfit for their positions, and the interests of the service imperatively demanded their removal. General ?Aiwa' action in the matter that with my entire approval." "I will say that this officer (Gen. Miles) has been lately promoted for distinguished and meri torious conduct in this and all other campaigns. That no officer in the army, of his age, is more distinguished and honored as a soldier. That he has the confidence and esteem of every good officer and soldier who ever knew him, and that the attempt of worthless and disgraced officers to impute unworthy motives or action to him ex cites only contempt in this army." We have no interest in this particular case other than we have in whatever effects the standing of the brave men who, by their patriotic bravery, have won the lasting grati tude of their countrymen. The Military Committee of the Union League dia its best to after its regiments with brave and effi cient men, and, in most instances, it had great cause to be proud of its selections. But it sometimes failed, and in no case, so grie vously as in the 383 d Regiment. The officers who brought discredit for a time on that brave regiment should be content to leave their military record to tha obscurity which time is gathering about ' and not revive such a page of history, by eeking, at this late day, for honors which th nsier-won. The Seymour and lair men are pretend ing that they did not expect any gains in Ver mont. But the Age of yesterday had a des patch which said: "The Democrats are very confident of largely increasing their vote of last year, and are making great exertions." The World of Monday had one concluding: "Vermont• will give five thousand Demo cratic increase." Many similar predictions were made, so that it will not do to pretend now that the Democrats let the election go by default. THE ALEXANDER. CASE. The case of Alfred Alexander, now under sentence of death in this city, has excited un usual attention from the ' peculiar circvm stances of the case, which, • since they have become generally, known, have created a strong conviction that the verdict of "murder in the first degree" was not warranted by the facts which have been developed. The fort night's reprieve granted by the Governor met with the entire approval of this community, but that approval will certainly not follow an execution of the sentence of the court. The Dail,y _Ski& _G_uarl, _occupying a setni-official position at Harrisburg, made a labored attempt, last week, to secure the banging of this miserable man, by a course of argument from which the element of mercy is carefully excluded, and in which the worst, instead of the best, interpretation is placed upon every doubtful feature of the case. Governor Geary is absent from Harrisburg, and the complimentary reference in this last plea for the execution of Alexander to the "concurring opinion of the Deputy Attorney General" indicates pretty clearly that this production is inspired by the same brilliant though flippant mind that availed itself of the absence of the Attorney-General to borrow his official dignities for the purpose of hurry_ ing Alexander to the gallows. It is not necessary to repeat the considera tions which we have urged in this wretched men's behalf. They have appealed to the humanity and love of justice which pervade this community, and have everywhere met a cordial response. The man has committed a crime for which he should be severely pun ished. The prevailing sentiment here is that he has not committed murder in the first de gree, and this sentiment will only be made stronger should the law now be permitted to "take its course." There is too much doubt about the case to Warrant the taking of a human life, even though it be only that of a poor, friendless, deserted negro ; and we therefore urge once more upon Governor Geary the exercise of the high prerogative with which he algae is 'clothed, by the extension to Alexander of a reprieve without time. Common humanity as well as common law demands that every prisoner shall have the benefit of every doubt, and no one Ns , ill pretend to say that there are not grave doubts hanging about all the circum stances of the assault upon Paillis Proctor, And of her subsequent death, ENIgG'aIi,Li,TI , PItILAbt . A correspondent ()Pone of our Democratic cotempbraties, writlak frOmliermont a few days since, said "we expect to reduce the I?epublicatz maj9ritylP,ooo votee.'i• The result showilthe `fallacy' of Democratic pre dictions.' The daily copperhead Organ• of this city, in its anxiety to make out - ,,a case against the Republican party _for its administration of municipal affairs; speaks of the' increase of the debt of the 'cltydming the 'seven years that harnblipsed since the Augustan era of Mayor Vaux. Witb4rue Copperhead ingen . uousnelas all this increase is charged to Re publicanism, not one word being said con cerning the millions that were expended for bounties, for the support of the families of volunteers and for the defence of the city. This large increase - tolhe iMblic debt might have been avoided it there had been no ob stacles thrown in the way of the march of the Southern wing of 'the Democracy under Lee, from Gettysburg or , Astletam, to Phila delphia. ,This might have suited our local Democracy, but the mass of the people, thoUght differently; hence ,the millions that were expended' directly and indirectly for fence. AttemPting to held' the Republican administration of city affairs responsible for the large Outlaye caused' by an insurrection that , was, the logical ; 'result of 'Democratic teachings and tactics, is simply reviving the old story of wolf and the iamb. Vermont sent forth her son's to fight for freedom and the maintenance of the, Union, and votes for Grant,and Colfax. 'Kentucky helped to' fill . the armies of the ; , South. to butcher Northern .men, and- votes 'for Sey mour. If the Board •of Presidents will Inot deter mine upon the total prohibition of smoking in the city railway cars, they should do the next best thing and require that all - smokers shall take seats inside. Then the open win dows would . give other passengers some small chance for a mouthful of fresh air, while non-smoking riders could gaze at their leisure upon the features of the gentleman who is nauseating them. The present sys tem of confining the smokers to the front platform insures the passage through the car of every whiff of singlre, and there is no escape from its fumes. Beside this, the smoker on the front' platform has his back toward his victims and he does not see their disgusted faces. By all means compel the smokers to take seats inside. Slave-bound Kentucky proclaims for the rule of Blair, Wade Hampton, the Butcuer Forrest and another war. The hardy Green Mountain Boys of Free Vermont proclaim for Grant, and say "Let us have peace." In the general rejoicing over the grand vic tory in Vermont, little Delaware must not be forgotten. - Wilthington held her municipal election yesterday, and returned her Repub lican Mayor Valentine to his seat, with. a largely increased majority over last year's vote. Seymour and Blair may see in_these first eddies the coming of that "whirling tide" that is so soon to sweep them out into the ocean of political oblivion. Good for Wil mington ! The "eyes of Delaware" are upon her! Kentucky and Seymour demand shinplasters and a continual paper currency. Vermont and Grant ask for specie and loiver prices for the necessities of the laboring man. Vermont heads the column for Peace and Freedom, synonyms for Grant and Colfax. Keep the ball moving. OFFENBACH'S OPERAS. It must be a source of regret to every one in this country who desires education of popular taste to genuine appreciation of good music, that the demand and the supply of opera bouffe in the United States are constantly ineteasing. We are threatened this - season - witti - performances by no less than four different companies, and the aggravation is intensified by the fact that the scanty repertoire of each of these is furnished only with the compositions of Mr. Offenbach. At a time when Americana were beginning to feel a lively interest in musical matters, and when their capacity for comprehension of the better class of compositions has been enlarged by familiarity with good music, interpreted by skilful native and foreign artists, the introduc tion of Offenbach to the stages of our Academies, and hie quick popularity, can be regarded as little lees than caltimitous. Offenbach is not a great musician, and hie compositions are unworthy of a place beside the meanest productions of the men who are entitled to rank among leading composers. Possessing a thorough musical education, he is a master of all known styles, and is capable -of—all—possible- effects;-but-he has not the faintest spark of genius, and none of that creative power which is its highest attribute. He is an absorber of other men's ideas. 0012StI8 gathers into itseit the best of e 4ery kind, focalizes It and gives it added intensity and beauty, and more powerful life. Offenbach's talent is sponge-like; it holde all, and at every squeeze it yields a medley of precisely the kinds it contains. This quality le perceptible in the tiresome similarity of all hie productions. The same general tone pervades La Grande Duchesse, La Belle Ltelene, and Barbs Bleue. If we except the few melodies, and a half dozen odd concerted pieces in each, one bf his operas is nearly the counterpart of the others. He exhausts the varieties of effects in one, and has no alternative but to give the same general styles from the same reservoir of accumulated material in all the others. His melodies may be 'accepted as the best evidence of his title to rank as a musician. But these are contemptible. He has not written an air superior to "Champagne Charlie," or "Tramp, Tramp," and there are multitudes of our negro melodies that for plain tive sweetness, oddity and originality, are as much better than his compositions as Ossian's poems are superior to those of Walt Whitman. If Offenbach deserves fame, our own Foster is entitled to immortality. The plea that he is an artist in burlesque will not avail. Whatever his special field of opera tion, ho claims to be a musician; it is as a musi cian he comes before the public, and in this char acter we must judge him. It is not necessary, moreover,that a composer of comic opera should be a fantastic trickster t —a whipper of harmonic syllabubs that are froth and nothing more. Real humor and pure and harmleed fan are more likely to be the offspring of genius and correct taste than the creations of talent which indulges in road pranks and recklessly defies the laws of order and more than that, of decency. Auber, Rossini; and Donizetti have written comic operas, and wedded humor to immortal music. These men rank with the old masters of English comedy, while Offenbach is in the position of those petty farce writers who are engaged by the theatres to tickle the public fancy with drahlatizatione of the MA, WEDN ESD AY: SEPT p. . atest.ecut4llob. Hle..musie is sometimes funny, but it is Oftener contemptible. - -He to- the spectacle of a man who:hai risen to - popularity without a particle of genuine merit,and by , purely factitious• means, 'While other composers, whose _genius is unquestioned, languish in . comparatiVe obscurity.), There le:more mina exhlblted In one of Btransfi's, waltzes than In the, whole of Offen bach% com positions, and yet thereare , thousands who - know of Offenbach who never heard of &raves. And Offenbach is entirely incapable of doing anything better. Ho mule one attempt to con tribute to legitimate comic opera in Pal is, and failed disastrously. A second effort was made to compose music for a new ballet at the Grand Opera, and again his utter want of respectability was. demonstrated. He does not know the true meaning and mission pf music, as a musician should. Ho does not comprehend' that it is a rich, various and emotional language which speaks to the inner consciousness of men, ivith an expression as wide as the range of human feeling, and as enbtle as the sense& He seems to perceive the outward existence'ithout its deeper significanCe, and ,he whirls his chords and ca dences into:disjointed fellowship, with as little comprehension of the resources - and ' application . of musical language, as if some one should rifie the dictionary of Its odd words; and firm them into an array of queer, unconnected sentences. That such a musician as this shouldoNe crowded from the stage the noble composers of the day,,, Is not creditable to our taste and cultivation ' . But if musical incapacity and folly were tho most Aonotts' of M. Offenbach's finite, ho might, perhaps be forgiven. Unfortunately hie:offence -is greater. •Ho IS the Mail who has prostituted the. divine ;art to giving ,a false at tractivenetts, to pruriency. Ats ad English jour nal expresses it, 'lte lathe troubadour of ladlei t of dpubtful- repntation" ' All his' operas, excepting the failure alluded ';to nbove, were written , for a theatre of very questionable respectability . In Paris. It - is the haunt of fast 'Men,' lewd men, wOmen•of bid ~,gharifeter, and the grossly sensual iif both sexes. • M. Often bach 'citir 'obtain representation'nowhere die in, Paris. The,text of MS,operas bears'endificient evf deuce of the fact that they were Written to stni the tastes of the frequenters - of the Boaffes Partfiennes. La Belk Reline is a gross caricature of a story that is in itself not impure; but Offen bach's ppmpilers have represented it in scene s which are vilely indecent. The heroine of Barbe Bleue is a common woman, and the' text of the librettols filled from first to last with obscenity and filth. Gineekve de Brabant is a lewd story of intrigue, and the libretto is not less shameless in its use of terms than that of Barbe Bkue. La Grande Duchesee is the purest of them all, but the opportunity for indecent action Is largo, and in this city at least it has not been enfirely ne glected. This "cast off slough of a polluted and shame (Tß French theatre" has been presented night, after night before American men and women who have found strange pleasure in witnessing the antics of actors and actresses who reproduced here in our Academies of Music the wanton per formances of a French concert saloon, and the lascivious dances of a French wine garden. Mlle. Tostee, without voice, facial beauty, figure, or any claim to our favor as an artist, was: cheered at every representation, because, with her nn. clad legs, she indulged in a vulgar kick that was not even amusing, but only disgusting. A cer tain disregard of decency, consequent upon her faithful interpretation of M. Offenbach, and a knack of twisting her,, fat form into unwomanly positions, together with a vivacity altogether French, constitute her entire artistic stock in trade. It would be rather harsh to say that the favor with which these representations have been re ceived is the result of a popular inclination for pruriency, but it is wholly incomprehensible why respectable men and women should applaud lan guage upon the stage, which in social life would insure the ostracism and the disgrace of the user. If the actions of Tostee and her Sisters would bring a blush to the cheek in our parlors, they are not fit for the stage, and an assumption of modesty in the parts of those who applaud In .decency in opera Loup is entirely inconsistent with common sense. But Offenbach and his operas are the fashion, and we expect them to retain their popularity— whatever may be the cause of it—until the pre sent mania for sensationalism, legs and lascivi ousness has worn itself out. When that blessed time shall come, we sineerely-hopeOffenbach and his compositions, Black Crook dramas and their nymphs, will be neglected and despised, and we shall turn once more to legitimate drama, and the stage will move nearly approximate to its true purpose and' destiny.

Murder in New Jersey, tFrom the Trenton American.] We are compelled to chronicle another case of murder in Middlesex county, which, from' the de tails which hate reached ns,appears to have been wilful and premeditated. The murdered man was a Prussian, named JeanZadginiski, and had been employed for some time past at the Brick Manufactory at French's Landing. On Saturday night Jean Zadginiski, with a friend by the name of Willoby, went oxer to Washirigteiff, - B.R , and started on their 'return , about eleven o'clock. From Washington they were accompanied by four or five- other men, who left them at French's saloon. Jean and his friend continued towards their lodging-house, and, as they turned a corner, two men who had been following, came up to them. One :of the men said: "I believe you are my men. h . At this moment two other men came up to where they were standing, one of whom carried in his hand a huge club. They stepped up to Jean, who, upon recog nizing the person with the club as the man with whom he had a--quarrel on the Saturday night previous, drew up his hand and slapped - him in the face. whereupon he raised the club and struck Jean a crashing blow upon the head, idling him senseless to the ground. Willoby, Jean's friend, then started to run away, but was followed, overtaken, strack with the club, and knocked upon his back. The four men then started off in another direction. Jean was picked up and carried to the shanty, which is the term given the lodging-house, where he died at five o'clock Sunday morning. He re mained unconscious, and did not speak after re ceiving the blow from the club, which crushed in his skull on the left side of the head, The names of the two men who first accosted Jean and hiefriend we have not ascertained, bat the named — of . the - two men whb came up after ward,are Henry Bottgar and Carl Kopp. Which one of these used the club is not known. Both escaped, but officers have been despatched after them. QBAKER "SWEET CORN—ES BARRELS JUST RE 1.3 ylved and for rale by JOSEPH B. BURSIE.R di CO Uer.th. Delaware arcane, 2:go O'cloo*. .
