EVENING BULLETIN.

PRESIDENT GRANTS
The Republican party marks an important
era in its existence by the election of General
Grant. For eight years it has ruled the coun
try, or so much of it as has not been under
the domination of the rebellion. During that
time it has successfully prosecuted a gizantle:
war, and has saved this Union from the die - -
ruption that threatened it. It has abolished
slavery, and so taken away the reproach
which had so long rested on the American
name. It has added largely to our territory,
by the acquisition of Aliaska, and has or
ganized the three new States of Nevada, Ne
braska and West Virginia. It has opened
the way for populating our vast West by the
construction of the Pacific Railroad, and has,
by the same great enterprise, prepared a peace
able solution of the problem of Mormonism,
slavery's twin relic of barbarism. ''lt has ad
vanced the United States to a position of
dignity among the nations, never before oc
cupied; and has developed those grand prin
ciples of human freedom and of a progressive
civilization which are the very essence of a
true Republicanism:
In doing all this, the Republican party has
necessarily committed some faults. Its great
est fault was the nomination of Andrew John
son. It had a true and faithful Vice Presi
dent in Hannibal Hamlin, who was sacrificed
to the mistaken notion that the border States
needed to be .conciliated, and so Andrew
Johnson, in an evil hour, became Vice Presi
dent. It is needless to expatiate on all the
long train of evils that have followed that
terrible blunder. Years of distraction and
disturbance; a long arrest of the return of
peace and prosperity; a blot and a stain upon
the national reputation; a lowering of the
dignity of high •office; a fearful spread of offi
cial corruption and demoralization; these are
some of the consequences of this great fault
and mistake.
But there are other sins which the Repub
lican party ought to look steadily in the face
at this time. The long enjoyment of power
in the affairs of a great nation like this brings
with it inevitably the gradual departure from
the strict practices of official probity,
economy and impartiality which are funda
mental principles of the Republican party.
• The corruptions of the Democratic party had
reached a pitch in 1860 which contributed
largely to the grand revolution of public sen
timent which elected Abraham Lincoln.
That election was a protest against official
extravagance and dishonesty, and the
Republican party is solemnly bound by the
terms of that protest. But the great army
that has moved forward upon the grand high
way of American progress, during these past
eight years, has gradually attracted to itself a
swarm of camp-followers, who have lived
and are living by what they can pick up from
the leakage of the public treasures, and from
those arts and tricks by which clever and
unscrupulous politicians of all parties are
wont to fill their pockets.
The masses of the Republican party have
not only no sympathy with or participation
in the doings of these• camp followers, but
they have no toleration for them. They re
gard them with the intensest disgust, and
only desire to see the whole class swept from
the skirts of Republicanism. There is a sub
lime foolishness in the minds and conduct of
men who have looked to the Democratic
party for the reform of any abuse. That
party, even when it was an honorable and
respectable one, grew so corrupt that the
country repudiated it with an inexpressi
ble disgust. And the man who
would turn to it now, when it has
ceased to be commonly decent; when
it has stamped itself with every dishonor;
when it has descended to every low and de..
grading practice; when it has become almost
grotesque in the magnitude of its openly
j practiced frauds; and would expect it to re
store anything that may be wanting in the
;Republican party, or to administer the Gov
ernment with more economy or purity, is
-simply deficient in the ordinary powers of
human intellect. The Democratic party is
savage with hunger. Eight years of famine
have been in its camps. In the last period of
Andrew Johnson's term it has managed to
snatch, here and there, a meagre supply of
that public plunder which is its natural pabu
lum; but it has only served to sustain life
enough to wage one more desperate struggle
for the public treasures, one more frantic as
sault upon the position which it lost eight
years ego. The idea of public reform as
possible through a return to Democratic rule
is too.absurd for any thinking man to have
entertained it,.
Bnt.the Republican party must reform
itself. it is young, healthy and vigorous.
It is Bound in all its members. It is true in
all its instincts. It is honest in all its fir=-
poses. When in 1860, in 1864, in 1868, the
Republican party avowed the principle of
strict economy in expenditure and strict in
tegrity m official administration, it meant
precisely what it said, however lightly into
rested peliticians may have esteemed those
pledger. And now the grand opportunity
has arrived to make those pledges good..
President Grant has already proved his
practical belief in the righteousness of those
pledges, and he is not the man to be swerved
from his determination to fulfil them by any
power that can be brought to bear upon him.
Addrew Johnson has turned the offices of
this country into one great Augean stable,
that reeks with the foul odors of corrnpion.
And ihrotigh it President Grant must and will
turn the tido of a sweeping purification that
Win - Cleanse it from its defilements, and - place
in office honest men, who will not look upon
their public positions merely as so much ma
chinery by:which the public treatmies are to
be robbed.
The Republican party will stand by Prig
dent Grant in every measure that looks to
ward radical reform. So far as it has been
able to do, it has striven bard to keep Anwn
the, public expenditures. But the Democracy
has piled a huge public debt upon the conn. 7
try, and this debt has compelled a great in
crease of public offices, • and a consequent
great increase of the temptation to public
cmuption. It will be's gratid` spectacle for
the whole world to look upon and admire,
when President Grant, with his faithful Re
publican Congress, seta to work , to remove
every vestige of the bad results of Andrew
Johnson's maladministration, and to exercise
the power with which the Republican party
has clothed him; to purify, to elevate, and to
ennoble that party. If it' shall be proved
possible for the party in power to carry
out the principles of strict economy
and stern integrity for which General Grant
has won so high a name, it will be a glorious
thing for the whole cause of American pro
nress and for the perpetuity of American in
stitution& We believe that it is not only
possible, but that it is certain to be accom
plished. Useless offices will be abolished.
Useless expenditures will be prohibited.
Honesty and ability will be demanded of all
public servants. The policy of the Govern
ment will be directed toward the removal of
the burdens of taxation, the payment of the
public debt, the development of the national
industries, the establishment of national pros
perity and peace. •
There is a grand future before the Republi
can party, in the new era which President
Grant is to inaugurate, and we hail it with
joy and hope and faith. The Republican
party needs only to be true to itself to make
itself immortal.
JOHNSON AS A CONFIDENTIAL AD
VISER.
The egotism of President Johnson is
magnificent. The first article of his creed is,
that his opinion is more valuable than that of
tyo other :iftan, and that acceptance of his
adidce is positively essential to success. His
attempt to enforce what he called his
"policy," in direct opposition to the ex
pressed will of the people whose servant he
is, furnished disastrous evidence of his self
"conceit, for it nearly ruined the country.
But he is not contented to control his own
administration ; he intends now to give Gen
eral Grant the benefit of his wisdom and ex
perience, and so has proceeded to offer a few
friendly suggestions in regard to the formation
of the General's Cabinet. He thinks General
Grant had better retain at least two of the
present 'Secretaries, and he inclines to the
opinion that Mr. Seward and General Scho
field would be the most available. If Johnson
had not such fervent faith in his
own influence and importance, we should
believe that he disliked these two men, and
desired to ruin their chances with the next
administration. Andre* Johnson'e praise is
like Satan's blessing—it has the effect of a
curse. The fact that he recommends a man
is a sufficient cause for laying that unfortu
nate party on the shelf forever and ever. But
in this instance, the tender of advice to Gene
ral Grant is especially impertinent. The
election of the gallant soldier was not more a
compliment to him, than a stern and terrible
rebuke to Andrew Johnson. It fixed the
seal of popular condemnation upon his
Presidential career, and General Grant was
chosen as the instrument by whom every por
tion of Mr. Johnson's national work is to be
undone and executed properly.
Coming from a less egotistical man, under
these circumstances, this counsel could be
regarded only as a premeditated impertinence;
but we believe Mr. Johnson actually con
siders himself better capable of arranging
these little matters than General Grant is. It
is not at all likely, however, that the General
is of the same opinion. He has had some
experience with President Johnson in select
ing Cabinet ministers, and the latter's conduct
was not by any means satisfactory. At
least one of his present favorites is sure of
rejection. Whatever General Grant will do
with Secretary Schofield, he will without
doubt permit Mr. Seward to retire to private
life simultaneously with the man to whom he
sold himself. The people have no faith what
ever in this ancient Auburn politician. While
he was faithful to the noble principles which
he advocated throughout a long political
life, he was honored and respected;
but after he rose from that sick bed
on which Payne's dagger, gashing his throat,
spilled his loyal blood, he forsook the party
of freedom, and, for the sake of office, clasped
hands with the enemies of his ktountry, and
gave earnest and hearty support to all the
infamous villainy of an administration whose
baseness has no parallel, in the history of
this country. Even now he does not display
regret for his conduct, and when, only on
last Saturday, he announced his reaffillation
with the Republican party, he maligned that
party with bitterness and untruth which sug
gested the theory that he drew his inspira
tion from Andrew Johnson. His belief in
our principles is too half-hearted; his con
version is too sudden—too obviously the
suggestion of expediency, to inspire faith in
his sincerity.
General Grant knows him well, and will
hold the same opinion. On the 4th of
March next, Mr. Johnson will tumble front
his present proud position into gloomier ob
scurity than that which envelops even poor
Frank Pierce. Mr. Seward may as well
make up his mind to conclude his political
career at the same time. The nation will
part with them both without a regret, and
without any sympathy for them in their
_ ownfall.
The people of the Western States have
been grossly libelled by the Pendletonians
and the framers of the Tammany platform,
who declared that they were in favor of
repudiation. Every one of the Western
States has pronounced in favor of Grant and
against repudiation. The aggregate majority
in those States will be in the neighborhood of
250,000. The only States, of those whose
people were considered loyal through the re
bellion, that can be claimed by the repudia
tionists, are New York and New Jersey, and
in them fraud had tolbe resorted to to carry
them. New England, Pennsylvania and all
the Western States have repudiated repudia
tion by .a popular majority of over four hun
dred thousand.
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1868.
Peverdy Johnson has found opporthu
.
ity while singing the praises of o ur. English
eziemies to express his approbation of Gen
eral Grant's , . election.- - The fact that Mr.
JOhnson commends their course, will, not
bring to the American people any ihrther con
viction of having done their duty. It will
assure them, however, 9f Mr, Johnson's anx
iety to be upon the winning side, no matter
if ho has to turn a complete somersault to
reach it. It is not that he loves General
Grant mud!, but office more,that he is pleased
tqth the result of our elections., He is too
old a politician not t o turn to the East when
the sun rises.
Pnenrcmsr Ixerrrtrrn Lscrungs.fly , an ad
vrirtisement which will bo found in our present
Wine, it appears .that the Prankiht Institute is
about to recommence its usual course of Winter
lectures. •!These have formerly been -so instruc
tive and interesting that we hail the announce
ment with sincere) pleasure. We are glad too
US find that a serious difficulty, previously con
nected with these lectures is about to be obvi
ated. The lecture-room of the Initituto will only
accomodate about 800 persons, but again and
again we have seen it overcrowded, while many
were obliged to retire, failing of getting even
standing room. To avoid this difficulty it is pro
posed that the lectures shall be repeated; on
each Tuesday a lecture for the members of the'
Institute, and on the following Thursday the
same lecture for those who are not members,
but desire to availlhemselves of the opportunity
of instruction in the branches of science ex
plained and illustrated. This plan can 'hardly
prove otherwise than popular and successful.
The Managers of this venerable Institute do
servo great credit for their steady endeavor to
advance science, and, place the means of instruc
tion in the natural sciences within the reach of
all citizens. The terms of subscription to the
reading-room and lectures are very moderato,
and ample provision is made for the wants of all
who desire information in the various branches
of science. Gentlemen who have sons can hardly
do a wiser thing than subscribe for their children
and secure for them the varied privileges of the
Institute. The series of lectures opens on
Tuesday, Nov. 10th, with a course by Professor
Morton, on Light. This subject, so brilliantly
treated by the lecturer at the Academy of Music
during previous seasons, cannot fail to be most
interesting, as new departments of the Subject
will be treated of, and new experiments exhibited
at this time.

that they clubbed each others heads, as might
have been expected; but they joined hands, and
united torches, in a great proCessson, and the
banners were inscribed

likewise proceed through the streets of Philadel

"THE CAMPAIGN CLUB," and

To carry out the Idea of

wasegein very severe to-day. and in some Instances as
high as 12 per cent was paid on the street for "call loans"
on Government eollateralt, bet the general , quotations
were from 7to 10 per cent. The banks are powerless to
afford any extensive relief. but they continue to discount
to the extent of their moans to their regular customers at
the legal rate. Capitalists are remarkably cautious, and
demand extremely, heavy margins on miseellaneouo oecu-
Mies. The stock speculators are the priocipal: borrow

a panic, the pressure tb Sell both government and other
seetirltice for cash having been extreme to an extent
rarely if ever before witnessed. In United abides clocks
the decline at the first cal, WOO equal to from three to
four per cent. since yosterdaymorning, and those who
were obliged to sell necessarily did so at a sacrifice. The
tzar:tractions were enormous and bonds were thrown over
board a ithout regard to price. At the same time wide dif
ferences were made between cub and regtdar, the rates
ranging from-n to% per cent. and for buyers' optiotei of
fifteen days Nell per cent , were paid. The beading deal
ers very truly Bay that the panic bas been brought on by
the great scarcity of money. and that so long as thus
scarcity continues there fa no hope of a better market,
operators having for the time being no confidence in it,
and considerably lower prices are freely ;indicted. , The
upward reactions seem only to bring out fresh
sellers, and the prominent housesgive no
encouragement to buyers on margins, Hut in rho midst
of all this excitement it must be remembered that Vie
came in menet'," y stringency, aed that whenever this re.

about one per cent from the lowest figures of the morn
ing but before the clots there wasp a relapse of about a i
half per cent., and the pressure was still to sell, while
the principal dealers made no effort whatever to stem
the downward tide, apparently deeming itpfutile.

the money market, engineered by the combined action, of
the Treasury Department and stock-lobbing beam locking

which government deaf issue currency bonds bearing a
small rate of interest, say 3.65 per cent per annum,
convertible at par into greenbacks at the option of the

SEN6IILAR OUTBAGE.-Mr. John Shirley, of the

Christian street, in the Third Ward. He is a
staunch Republican, and has done good service
during the past campaign. Last night, at about
8% o'clock, his door-bell was rung and upon the
door being opened by the servant, fonr men
rushed in, masked and armed with clubs. They
looked hastily round, as if In search of Mr. Shir
ley, but not finding him, shouted up the stairs :
"Nagger, shoot!" and ran out of the house. The
police have been notified of this singular outrage
and are on tie look-out for these Ku-Mazes of
the Third Ward.
QUANTE*. SESSIONS—JUDGE PEIROF.—ThIe morning the
case of Michael Mcßride. Dennis Mcßride, Thos. Cleve
land. Joseph Cleland and Thomas Rolland, charged
with the murder of Michael Bailee. in Juno last, was
again called up on the application for their discharge
under the operation of what is known as "the two term
rule."
Mr. O'Byrne, for the prisoners, stated that the final
commitment was made on the 24th of June Mat. Since
then the July, August. September and October terms of
the Cowt had been held, and under the act of 1785 , the
prisoners were entitled to their discharge, as the delaY in
the trial bad not been caused by the acceued.
Mr. Mann. who had been invited to be present by Div
triet Attorney Sheppard. said that he had frequently ex.
pressed to the Court his opinion that the act of 1786 was
notdesigned to be compulsory, but lett to the Court the
discretion to decide upon the ground for the application
for a discharge The object of the law wad to prevent
opt ression or malice on the part of the protecution; but
whets it was clear that there bad been no opportunity
for a trial these would be no discharge. Under the old ,
law a prisoner might be kept in prison for six or nine
months without trial, and as there was not a great
press of business. the stet was designed. to
prevent oppression. Mr, Mann quoted from
the records of the Curt for
.1784. showing that there
was little bitififees, and therefore no excuse for delays in
the trial of CRUBer. The record road by Mr. Mann con
tained cases for,honie-stealing, where the sentence of the
Court was that the defendant was to stand in the pillory.
rscrtve thirtymine lashes and nave both ears cut oft).
the act of 1867, changing the terms of this Court, did not
affect the act of 1585. Mr. Mann referred to..the fact that
during the summer months It was the universal request
of members of the bar that homicide cases should not be
tried during the warm weathor.
OP iop to Mr. Catyrne , s engagement the further-argu
ment of the case was adjourned until to-morrow morning.

WAIMINGTON, Nov. 6.—By direction of the
President Major E. 8. Latimer • 19th Infantry,
has been detailed ae Professor of illittay Science
at the Bishop Seabury Mission, Faribault, Minne
sota.
General orders have been issued from the
Army Headquarters in pursuance of the order of
the President, relieving General Reynolds from
command of the Fifth Military District, and di
recting General Canby to turn over his present
command to the officer , noxt in command to
himself, and proceed to Austin, Texas, to relieve
Brevet Major General Reynolds.
The following order from the War Department
has been published: • •
Soldiers may, for certain offences, not strictly
military,•be sentenced by general court-martial
to confinement in a Penitentiary. If any State
in a military departMent has made provision by
law for confinement in a Penitentiary, thereof of
prisoners under sentence by court-martial of the
'lfnited States, the Department Commander may
designate such Penitentiaty as a place of execu
tion of any such sentences, to Penitentiary con
finement; but if no such provision has been made
by any State in the department, the record will
be forwarded to the Secretary of War for desig
nation of a prison. The authority which has
'designated the place of confinement, or higher
authority, can change "the place of confinement
or mitigate or remit the sentence. The same
reties apply to prisoners sentenced by military
,commissions, so long as the law under which the
Military Commission acted is in force but when
that law ceases tO \be operative, the '
,President
alone can change the place of confinement or
mitigate or remit the sentence; . '
`General Grant having been 'informed,of the
preparations which 'are 'being made in Me city
to tender him &popular reception upon lus re
turn, has written to a friend' in • Washington ex
pressing his cordial thanks for the evidences of
friendship, on the part of the citizens. but
at the same 'time expressing a preference
that no public demonstration be made Immedi
ately upon his arrival. The General would'nOt
saYpositively at what time he would reachyWash
ington. It is probable that the public reception
which it is designed to tender the General will be
deferred until he has recovered from the fatigue
and discomfort incident to travel, and become
comfortably loelited at his home.

Hecht said she would take a dose of pills and said that
she believed it, neceesarY fo: the sake of her baby for he •
t'. take the pills; she asked me if I would go up sad get'
them, and at the same time She advised Mb to get a box
and take them myself, as ehe thought that d needed
them on Tuesday' morning, about eight o'clock.
' I got her one box of the Dille from Mr. Bower's eon; he
told me that the pills-u ere soft and might get out of
shape. and then he did not want to add anything, as it
would make too large a pull for her to take; I took them
home and laid them on the table ; she asked me for some
apple butter. which I gave her ; I then went down stairs;
in about ten minutes she told me she had taken
