Tuesday, Itiareh 2, 1869. LAAAN.IINE A Paris despatch of yesterday announces the death of Lamartine, iifir French poet. Had this been announced twenty-one years ago it would have made a profound sensation throughout the world; for Lamartine was then looked upon as the main hope of liberty pa France. Of late years, however, he has been looked upon as a doting, conceited, ,Uperannuated sentimentalist, only appearing before the world occasionally as a literary mendicant, telling a piteous tale of personal onble, in order to induce people to subscribe funds to enable him to indulge his taste for a luxurious Marie Louis Alphonse Prat de Lamartine was born at Macon, France,October 21,1790, so that he was in his 79th year. Hie family suffered hardships during the Reign of Ter ror, of which he retained some recollection. He was educated at the college of Lea Puree eie /a Foi, at Belley, and afterwards traveled in Italy, which country he visited a second time in 1818. He thought of becoming an actor, and studied under Telma for a while, but abandoned the idea and turned his at tention to literature. In 1890 he pub - Fished a volume of lyric poems called "Meditations Peetiques," which made a pro found sensation. It obtained for him a place in the diplomatic career, and he was for a time attached to the French legation at Florence, where he married a rich English lady. He was afterwards Secretary of Lege lion at Naples and at London. He then abandoned diplomacy and devoted himself to letters, rapidly taking the front rank among the French poets of the time. liiii"Last Canto of Childe Harold" contained some bitter verses upon Italy, of which these two are examples : •' Je vale thereher ailleure (pardonne, ombre Romaine) Des butomes, et non pae de la ponaalere kamuine." "I go elsewhere (forgive me shade of Rome I) To look for men, and not for human duet." These provoked an Italian Colonel Pepe to ekallenge him to a duel, in which Lamartine was wounded. In 1826, for the coronation of Charles X., he wrote a Chant du Sucre, for which he was made Chevalier of the Le gion of Honor. He had just been appointed Minister to Greece, in 1830, when the revo lution broke out. borne advances made to lim by the government of Louis Pailippe were politely refused. But he occasionally indulged in political writing as well as in poetry. In 1832 he vesited the East, re maiLing sixteen mouths, during which he suffered a grievous affliction in the death of his daughter Julia. lie traveled and lived sumptuously in Palestine. ills book of travels in the East is the most captivatiug of his prose writings. Ills longest and best poem, Jocelyn, appeared iu 1835. Ile wrote many other things, still occasionally appear ing in the political world. In 1847 appeared Lis " history of the Girondius," the republican sentiments of which made him very popular when the revo lution of the following year broke out. On the 24th of February, 1848, when the Duchess of Orleans appeared in the Chamber of Deputies with her son, his voice Was first raised in favor of a provisional gov ernment, and he was made one of its mem bers. On the next day, before a vast meeting in frontof the Hotel de Ville, when there was a question of adopting the red ifq, he mal t a thrilling and effective appeal in behalf of the Ui-color. It had, he said, "made the tour of the world,with the Republic and the Empire, with your liberties and your glories; while the red flag has only made the tour of the Champ de Mars, dragged through pools of the people's blood." Under the new Republic Lamtirtine was made Minister of Foreign Affairs. He became very popular, but the outbreak of June overthrew him along with bis colleagues. Although he retained his seat in the Assembly, he never recovered his old influence, and he failed of re-election in 1849. After the coup (taut he retired to private life. Re engaged again in literature, but also in financial speculations which ruined him. Several times, his friends have contributed large sums for his relief; but he wasted them all. Recently be took up bin abode iu a little villa near Palls, and issued a circular in re- Potence to a proposed new work.

". The Commercial= Exchange Association yeaterday took possession of their magnitl , cent building on Second street, and the 000 - Mon was one in which PhiladelP hia at large, feele a just pride. , It' Is only within a few years that the commercial interests of Philo,— delphia have taken any important organized form, and the point was well made by Mr. McKean, in his speech at the dedication ban quet last evening, that it was out of the shock of war, that the peaceful organization of the Corn Exchange, parent of the Commercial Exchange, sprang into public notice, and _ - gave practical evidence that the merchante of Philadelphia were imbued with a degree of public spirit and enterprise, not recognized or appreciated before. The raising of the 118th Regiment P. V., better known as the • Corn Exchange Regiment," in 1862, was indeed the foundation of all thoFe succesfes which have since been achieved by this association of Philadel phia's business men. It bound its member ship together with new ties; it attracted pub- lie attention, largely, to this class as a puni tive power in the community; it excited a new civic pride among our people; it appetled at once to their public spirit and their patriot ism; it taught the business men their own power, and sbowed them what they might accomplish by their combined efforts. This principle of combination was pushed forward, ar.d out of the consolidation of the Corn Es- change, the Coal Exchange, and the Drug Excliange,the present Commercial Exchange as been developed, and, under its auspices, lifdElphlit's "Clitimber of Commerce" now takes its place among the great centres of the world's commercial powers. There is no trifling significance in the fact that at the dedicatory banquet, last evening, prominent representatives of the trade of New York, Chicago, Detroit, Mil waukee, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Boston and Newark met to congratulate Philadelphia on her advances to the position which of right belongs to her, but which she has been so slow to occupy. It shows very plainly that it needs nothing but an enlargement of the spirit of our own people to attract to Phila delphia her full share of the great trade of all parts of the country. Philadelphia is incalculably benefstted by all that serves to set her before the business men of America as the great manufacturing centre of American industry. Such an occa sion as the dedication of our beautiful and spa cious Chamber of Commerce is one of general public interest, because it marks a great era in the march of commercial prosperity. The gentlemen to whose liberality and enterprise we are indebted for this fine building, have done something of far more value to Phila_ delyibia than merely to make an important addition to the architectural attractions of the city, though this, alone, would constitute a cause for much congratulation. They have raised the whole grade of the business of Philadelphia. They have demonstrated its growing importance. They have given a practical proof to those who have had too good reason to rate Philadelphia according to i:s old-fashioned conservatism that "old things have passed away and behold all things have become new." The influence of such an association as the Commercial Exchange is two told. It stimulates our own people to a higher estimate of their own business capa cities, and develops, among them, a spirit of liberal enterprise; and it causes Philadel phia to be honored abroad, and dispels the prejudices and mi4apprehensions which have prevented, in thousands of instances, the for mation of those business relations which should exist between this and every other business centre of this Continent. We heartily congratulate the merchants of Philadelphia upon the successful completion of this important undertaking, and trust that the same spirit of pleasant harmony and in telligent enterprise which has characterized the Commercial Exchange hitherto, will go with it into its new Palace of Trade, and prove the harbinger of ever-increasing pros perity to all who share its benefits. THE NAVY YARD INVESTIGATION Before finally dismlssing the subject of the charges of fraud made against the Engineer in-Chief of the Philadelphia Navy Yard, we desire to say a few words in reference to the reports of the Naval Committee of Congress and of the manner in which part of the inves tigation was conducted. The Naval Com mittee of the House of Representatives made an elaborate examination of the matter, ques tioning witnesses for both sides, tutting the testimony of experts, and listening to the ar guments of ceunsel. As the result of their labors we have two reports; one signed by five members of the Committee, completely exonerating Mr. Zeller, and commending his purchase of the tools; the other signed by three members, sustaining the charges of dis honesty and censuring Mr. Zeller severely. It would seem rather singular that two bodies of intelligent men, supposed to be disinterested, should arrive at such opposite conclusions. Either Mr. Zeller's transactions were fraudulent or they were not; and the difference between rascality and integrity is not so ill defined that eight unprejudiced men could possibly fail to determine it in any given case. But the majority report says that Mr. Zeller purchased excellent tools at fair prices, in an honest transaction; while the minority report says the tools are worth less, and that the prices paid for them were greater than those at which new tools were offered l a cy other makers. There are pretty plain insinuations also that Mr. Zeller was influenced in the transaction by very dishon orable motives. It is fair, therefore, to con clude that some other motive than a desire to arrive at the exact truth actuated either one party or the other. The majority is not always right, but in this case we think it is. Messrs. Wm. D. Et hey, Bt.evens and Ferry were appointed a sub Cr muoittee by the Naval Committee of the 11 , use to come to Philadelphia and in vestigate the alleged frauds. Mr. John Birk beck, of Merrick & Sons, was one of the ex per a examined by them. Ile says, over his own signature, that his examination was decidedly not such se to elicit from him a correct xxpiession of his opinion of the value of the tools purchased by Mr. Zeller. This, ! • - THE DAILY EVENiNG Y LLETIN------PHILADELPHIAz-TITE"'S "1- of .itself, sufilees.to itrOw smpieion upon all the they taken' by 'the . it&cominittec., If they refused to let John.l3irkbeck eipiess hh3 views fifeely,jt is fel; tp.qttestion whether any of the witnessed viereekarained as they should ,have been.

It appears to have been the :wish , , of, the • sukkommittee to induce Mr. Birkbeck to state only his ob jections to the tools, and to prevent his say ing anything in praise of them. This very great injustice becomes more' evident, when. we turn to the report made by the subcom mittee to the Naval Committee-- , a report, by the way, which the enemies of Mr. Z3ller were very careful to spread before the public. In this document, Mr. John Birkbeck's testi mony, finding trivial faults with three of the tools, was given in fulti but, although there were sixteen other tools involved in the charge of fraud, all of which Mr. Birkbeck is said to have commended as wholly good, not one word is presented in the subcommittee's re port in relation to them. Is this just or hon est ? We think every righteous man will say that the sub-committee were guilty of a very serious breach of faith and of gross partiality in suppressing any of the evidence; and will admit that the entire report is worthless and not entitled to confidence. If it does n ot give the whole truth, bat a distorted, twisted fragment of it, it is no better than a libel. The three gentlemen who formed this sub committee, and who framed this report, were Messrs. Wm. D. Kelley, Stevens and Ferry, the men whose names are affixed to the minority report of the Naval Commit which Mr. Zeller is condemned. Of course they were bound by their former action, and could not, consistently, agree with their col leagues; but we find fault with both reports, because we know them to be unauthorized by the evidence. We leave it to an intelligent community to judge whether the second re port is worth anything when it is proved that the first one, with which it exactly coincides, is so manifestly unjust? If it were not that Congress is about to dissolve, we should like to have another investigation made, this time into the machinery by which this whole mat ter was set in motion. We have discussed this subjest hitherto simply from a desire to have the exact truth established. The charges of fraud involved the Philadelphia Navy Yard ; and, it was al leged that influences were at work to injure Philadelphia manufacturing interests. After careful investigation, we were satisfied that the charges were not true, and that Mr. Zel ler was an honest man. We have had no ac quaintance or communication with him, or with any of his colleagues ; but we find that he bears a high reputation as a talented, capa ble and efficient officer, and that he has re ceived warm testimonials from Admirals Porter and Davis, and from the Secretary of the Navy. If he had been proved guilty, we should have demanded his severe punish ment. Now that his innocence is declared,it is but fair that his vindication should be made complete. He was held up before the country, in Congress, as a scoundrel of the worst character, and he has been unable to defend himself excepting before the Naval Committee. We are glad to publish his ex oneration, and to reprobate the ungenerous conduct of his accusers. President-elect Grant declines to be placed in a carriage along with Andrew Jfilinson when he goes to assume the solemn respon sibilities of the office to which the American people have elected him. Some superfine and super- ~ ify Democrats pretend that this is an incivility and a breach of etiquette. But there is, as General Grant says, nothing in the Constitution or the Laws requiring en incoming President to keep company With an outgoing one, either in or out of a carriage; and as there are many decent men all over the country who would consider it disreputable to be seen in the company of Andrew John son, and who would therefore refuse to drive down Pennsylvania Avenue with him, the President elect has a right to do as they would. Besides,Johnson might be tipsy, as he was March 4th, 1865, and it might be neces sary for the Police to interfere and take him to the Station House. Just now the prinicipal Democratic organs of the country are devotiig special articles t) the celebration of the virtues, the purity, the statesmanAip and the general excellence of Andrew Johnson. It would be well for the managers of these same journals to overhaul their own tiles of about four years ago,and to reprint from them some of the editorial arti cles then devoted to this same Andrew John.. son. From the 4th of March until the 15th of April, 1865, when Booth made Johnson President, the Democratic organs abused him with a coarseness of vituperation such as was never before heaped upon an American public officer. It may be worth while to ex plore these old files of four years ago, for the sake of reproducing a few of the earnest,elo quent and picturesque allusions to Andrew Johnson just after inauguration day. Two days more of Johnsonism remain. The mere thought of it is encouraging. No country on earth, except the great Republic of America, could have lived and prospered through nearly four years of Andrew John son's administration. Fortunately, there was a Congress true to the people that elected It, and it acted as a check upon the base man who betrayed the people that elected him. Johnson 'goes, day after to-morrow, to ob scurity via Tennessee. If he cold go to oblivion, by even a shorter route, his best friends and well-wishers might be better Fail di ed. But the tender obituary line of the Ledger, "Gone, but not forga.en," will not apply to him. His treachery will be re membered, and the scorn in which he is now held by the people that elevated him will be a warning to other politicians that may be inclined to betny the people. Have the Democrate and the Bread and Butter Republicans of Philadelphia not taken any steps to entertain Andrew Johnson be fore be goes hack to Tennessee ? HI is open to invitations and ready to swing round a nr.w elide on his way home. The ex-rebels of Baltimore have pt ahead of their friends hero and are going to make much of Mr. Johnson while•behopors their =city with his presence. Suirely, there ought to be a &win dividuali at Ninth andA:reb; or at the Club on Chestnut street, willing to be civil to him here. Besides we have a Democratic Mayor, who does not go ullshing, And Who might be induced to be polite even to' Johnson. Cer- tainly. he oughtto be invited to come to Phil adelphia. • The name of James E. Murdoch has be— come so intimately identified with the pa triotic work which the Rebellion left for the American people to do, that it seems very natural to announce him for a new entertain ment in a patriotic cause. Mr. Murdoch is to deliver an address or lecture at the Academy of Music on Tuesday evening next, the 9th inst., for the benefit of the Soldiers' Orphans in the Lincoln Institu tion and the Northern Home. His subject will be, "Recollections and Impressions of Abraham Lincoln; illustrated in poetry and prose." The fame of Mr. Murdoch has placed him at the head of American eloentionfsts,and the fact that his rare powers of eloquence are to be exercised on such an inspiring theme, ar,d in such an excellent cause, will be sure to fill the Academy of Music with a brilliant audience.

Commercial Intercourse with Prince Edward's Island. THE REPORT OP THE SELECT COMMITTEE. IFrona Washington. Wentramaros, March 2.—General Butler, to-day, made a report from , the Select Committee ap pointed by resolution of the House, lu July last, in regardlo Prince Edward's Island. The Com mittee, in Tursuance of lostruetions, wont to Prince Edward's Island, in the Gulf of Se Law rence, One of the colonial dependencies of Great Britaln. Arriving at Charlottetown on the 29th of August, they found there every disposition to aid them in au investigation, and to meet them on terms of most liberal spirit, so far as was in their power. They met a portion of the Executive Council, . and exchanged their views as to what wan desir able by both parties. In conclusion, the commit tee say they desire thus publicly to express their sensibility of the courtesy, kindness and hospi tality with which they were received and treated by the people of Prince Edward's Island and its authorities. They returned thence deeply. Impressed with the desirableness of the promotion of reciprocal trade between the Island and the United States, with no doubt of its feasi bility, and had it been within the scope of their instructions, would have reported a bill to carry ou t that object; but they have no doubt the subject will receive thatconsideration by the Commit tee on Commerce to which it le entitled. The re port is signed by Messrs. Butler oeMaseachusetts, Poland of Vermont. and Beck of Kentucky. , The New York City Council's delegatiene, thirty-five in number, under escort of a Com mittee of Washington City Councils, repaired to the White House this morning to pay their re spects to President Johrson. The latter, how ever, did not make his appearance, and the visitors having waited an hone, departed for the purpose of visiting Arlington and Mount Vernon. Henry C. Hail, Esq., United States Consul at Matanzas,. Cuba, bas taken temporary charge of the United States Consulate-General at Havana, in pursuance of instructions from Washington. No event of great prominence transpired at army headquarters. There is no decrease in the number of 'loiters, and a constant stream was kept np during the entire forenoon. Many la dies were present. A delegation from Texas,pre ceded by General J. 8. Reynolds, and a delega tion of Republicans from Alabama, accompanied by Senator Warner, called early in the day. The interviews were brief and of no particular interest, the object of the visitors being to pay their respects to the General. °elud' A. Grow, of Pennsylvania, was among the visitors. Great numbers of others called, incldding members of Congress, bringing friends ui elltb them, officers of the army, Governors of 8 tea, members of State Leglibsturee, ete. George T. Brown, Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate, had a short interview with General Grant. The multitude of visitors to attend the inaugn nation who have already arrived are engaged in visiting different places of interest throughout the .city, the Capitol, Executive Mansion, Army Headquarters and Treasury Department being the principal places of attraction. The Secretary of War has ordered Major How land, 2d Cavalry, before the retiring board at St. Louis. Thelma Cabinet meeting under the present ad ministration was held to-day. The members were all present. The amendment of Mr. Brooks to the miscella neous bill appropriates 0200,000 towards the commencement of the New York Post-office, but contains nothing about the plans or commis sion as in the bill heretofore reported on that subject. Mr. Butler (Mass.) also succeeded in obtaining a like sum for the Boston Post-office. Should the Senate acquiesce in these amend ments, the work will be at once commenced. Representative Schenck to-day obtained a Com mittee of Conference on his gold bill, which places it in a condition to become a law. Telegraph Difficulty. HARRISBURG. March 2.—The Keystone Tele graph Company, subsequently merged into the Pac'fic and Atlantic Company, when erecting their wires along the Pennsylvania railroad be tween Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, over a year since, finding it inconvenient to complete their lines In the usual manner, placed them on over 600 of the Western Union Company's poles, without their previous knowledge or consent. These wires were removed from some of the poles on Monday last, and an injunction has been ap plied for, restraining the offending party from again using the poles.

Cabinet Guesses. figPeehtl Dereatch to the Philadelphia Evening Banditti Weanumrox,March 2.—Although the galleries are crowded, both Houses are engaged upon the dry details of the ippropriation bills. There is nothing interesting except the incessant discus sion of the Cabinet. Probably Mr. Fessenden Is not without hopes of. being called to the State Department, though he thinks the only New England man in the CabL net will come from Massachusetts. 'Mr. Sumner has not been consulted at all about the State De partuient, as he thinks his position demands he should have been, and be therefore holds himself aloof from General Grant. Both Hooper and Botitwell have hopes of being invited to take the Treasury portfolio, and the friends of each are active. James Wilson, of lowa, has some expectation of getting the Interior Department. His name bas generally been used for the position of At. torney-General, but he has given his Mends to understand be would not ateept MEL The Marylanders and Southern Republicans continue to urge et-Senator Cresswell. There is a movement for Judge Roll, and he is much talked of both for the Treasury and State Depart. mutts. The rumor Is very current that a Cabinet posi tion Is to be tendered Governor Hayes, of Ohio, and that Governor Dennison will not, after all. be offered the Post-office Department. The latter said, last night, that as yet he had received no in timation from General Grant concerning a Cabl ' net position. The Ohioans are not so sanguine as heretofore that Governor Dennison will go into the Cabinet. It is impossible, however, amid so many conflicting rumors, to ascertain anything reliable. Several Republican Senator' manifest no little annoyance at General Grant's continued reti cence, and expressions are freely made that unless the suggestions of the leaders of the party are followed, a weak Cabinet is sure to be appointed. It is useless to deny the tact that such an appre hension exists in the Republican ranks, which will either disappear entirely or assume a more open aspect after next Thursday. The stlabtamts Treaty. [Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Balletin..l WASHINGTON. March 2.—Mr. Sumner this morning moved an Executive session, but failed to get it, and it now looks as if no executive business will be done this session, though the Foteign Relations Committee are anxious to get the Alabama treaty and the other treaties off their hands. This committee have determined to ask to be discharged from the further consideration of Mr. Sherman's Cuban recognition resolution, as they think it impolitic, especially after the re cent resolution expressing sympathy for Spain.

Ring/au—Continued from Second Edition.] Several amendments reported by the Com mittee on Appropriation were agreed to. Mr. Merritt (Vt.) moved to strike out the clause providing that female clerks in the departments shall receive equal pay with the male clerks when they de equal work. He said the result of the previous increase of the compensation had been to greatly multiply the number of applicants for such places, and he predicted that if the increase now proposed were made it would result in the abandonment of the employment of female clerks. Mr. Trumbull thOught it just that clerks of both sexes doing equal work should receive equal Pa Y 2 Mr. Ferry took the same view, Mr. Howe said the reason wily female clerks were not paid as much by the Government as male clerks was because,. under the existing or ganization of society their labor does not com mand anywhere as high pay as the labor of male clerks. This general inequality could not be re moved by raising the pay of the female clerks in the employ of the Government. Mr. Trumbull read from the acts regulating the employment and pay of clerks in the departments to show the discriminations made against females, and again urged the justice of paying them the same as males. fliouse—Continued from Second Edition.) Mr. Benjamin moved to reconsider the vote ap propriating $200,000 for the Now York Post office. Mr. Spalding moved to lay the motion to re consider en the table. The latter motion was agreed to without a division. The amendment offered by Mr. Arden, appro priating $160,000 for the Branch Mint at Sun Franeisco,was agreed to—yeas 78, nays 67. Mr. Bchenck said he thought it must be obvi ous to any one who coneidered the condition of the business, that one whole night's session was absolutely necessary, and he thought it best that that session should be to-night, when members were yet fresh, and when there welt likely to be less confusion tbun on the last night of tile ses sion. II the House would meet at nine o'clock to-night and bit for two or three hours a good deal of business would he despatched in that time. He hoped that gentlemen on the other side,who did rot feel the responsibility which lay on members of his side, would not object. FIFTI DIT : ,0!Oloolcir Bir'rEVgG:AAX'lls INPORTANT - ffr''CAßLß j..

The Speaker Informed the House that he de sired to present to the House, at the hour of meeting to-morrow, his reslenation of the °Moe which, by their kindness, he held. On motion of Mr. Butler (Slass.),the rules were suspended. The Senate amendments to the Indian Appro priation bill were nor-concurred in, and a Com mittee of Conference was asked. Subsequently, the Speaker appointed Messrs Butler, of Mass., Scofield . and Windom each Committee of Confer ence. Mr. Orth, from the Committee of Confeyence on the Consular and Diplomatic Appropriation bill, made a report. which, after a brief discussion between Messrs.
