It would be difficult to select any feature of Governor Gcm'y'S administration, More , entitled to: the approbation of the people dian his exercise of his pardoning.prerOgative, and the cause must, be desperate indeed that has recourse to attacks upon a position as invulnerable as is Governor Geary's on this point. His reeprd is bright and dear, and,lds'public services in this:connection deserve Csiae.clal praise. • 'The credit - of - putting, a stopto the wholesale' ilispensation grown up in the form of the remission of sentences by the Criminal. Courts of Philadelphia belongs entirely to the administration of, Governor Geary. This power of remission claimed by our Criminal Courtswas challenged and ,`con tested, carried to the B.npreme Court by the Attorney-General and decided tit) be unconsti tutional The, pardoning power was thus apin re stricted . Vilithiri the centrel of the Governor, and' so , far from atonsimg . It,' one of his earliest acts was to proVide a well-digested rule of procedure In all cases otapplications for dens, by w hich 'secret appears Tor par do are prohibited, and all parties concerned are forded . an opportunity of ,being heard. The; detailed anntud report of the ; pardons grantea showed, that Governor - Gbat'y has con-. scientiOusly Carried ont the ProViSions, d his'own rule. The history of each pardon, with, the names of those recommending it, and the reasons on Which it is based, Is published, and very few persons will be disposed to deny, after an examination of these, reports, that' while there has been apropenconsideratinn of the dietates of. mercy, therehas been a dice re gard,to the public welfare as well as. to ;the rights Of the condemned.' , Governor Geary has granted fewer pardons than almost, any Governor who has ever occu pied-the Execntive chair, \while he has cut off the exercise of the pardoning-Tower from the Criminal Courts. During .1867, notwithstand ing the,greatpressive brought to bear on thim, only fifty-picro' pardons were granted in all. In 1868, one hundred and six pardons' were granteA, and in the present year the number has reached only forty. Thus the.whole list of pardons granted during Governor GearYt's ad ministration - amounts to the-small number of 198, or' an average of one (for each County in the State per. annum. ,Of this small number a very considerable proportion were the cases of electimi oflicera convicted by Petriocratic, juries:ter • rethsing to receive the votes of de serters, and hi every case . pardon was granted on the application of responsible citizens or the representation of facts fully justifying Exec*, tive interposition. Governor Geary has on various 'occasions; displayed a firmness in resisting the pressnre of applicants for pardons, worthy of all praise. - The cases of Hester Vaughn, Gerald Eaton and George S. ,Twiteltellmo flesh in the public mind The impudent interference of a party of feeble-minded:llnd ignmant philanthropists in New York; in the case of ...Hester Vaughn, was met-with a ; dignified tetnikefrom-Governor Geary .who sent back the =Cooper Institute emissaries, with the polite , assurance that Pennsylvania was fitly competent to admin ister both mettcy and justio,e •withont the aid of the "strong-mirided" women „ef 'New 'York. The—tremendous—and--persistent--efforts--in- behalf of Eaton' and ,-TWitchell are well remembered. • Governor Geary was not only beset by all Sorts of iperBOrial impor-. tunitiesiinthe case of - these two:murderer:% - but.ahill was actually got:through- -the Legis lature _lfavingfor its object their release. __Gov ernor Geary vetoed the bill, and the Legisla ture respected his objections; and :he resisted the many-sided pressure of personal applica tion, steadily refusing to extend Executive clemency where it, was not *deserved, or de manded by any 'considerations or publiC Governor Geary haS done the State eminent service in his exercise of the pardoning power, and fOr this alone he deserves - the, hearty Sup port of the people. It is a power soallnicult in its just exercise that it is almost impossible that no mistakes should ever be Made In it. :But that it has been prudently; honestly, moder ately and very firmly used by Governor Geary* is abundantly proved by the whole history of his administration. THE SPANISH ItIEIGN OF TELROtt. The condition of of in Spain is anything but, gratifying to those who hoped that the overthiv of Isabella and the establisbment of constitutional liberty would be followed by an .earnest, united effort on the part of the ',-Spaniards to place theS'r country side by side with its sister nations in the race of civilization. , But instead of witnessing harmonimis progress, we find the unhappy laud torn with the strife of contending factions, and the prey of lawless ness and'anarchy. The Carlist conspiracy, from its national character.and the hnportance of ifs possible results, for a while distracted at tention from the minor evils with which Spain is afflicted, but-.now:that. this movement 'has becmcruslied with a cruel but weak band, we hear .cf assassinations and robberies; of or ganized bands of outlaws, .svlio despoil the cities,and towns without feariof punishment; of gross outrages against .the civil laws, per yetrated In the very strongholds' of authority; ,djsc.qutent and threatened rebellion in 'some :of the prol*ices; of financial nun inn the trea sury,' ,and of, desolation, starvation Ai! misery ilverywhere , in ate land. s o the, experiment of free govern- Th e 1 4 .41 Spain a sad and wretches'} failure.

'Even 5 a `liberal inimarchy • was a • dangerous e x periment• with the most laggard race hr' Europe. 'BM this , 'might have sue deeded if a sagacious and temperate ruler,. true to the„power that ,elevated him, had been placed upon the throne. The Regency is`not, a sufficient substitute for the - monarchy. It does not !command popular, respett, and, , its operations are crippled by the knowhidge that it is. ,but a temporary expedient, and by the jealausies and rivalries . of its' (*poems, who fear the ambition of its members. The only reasonable hope of the Spanish people snow, is in the speedy selection of a king; who will fill his high office with dignity and ability. None of the old candidates----Ferdiriand,lontpensier, ...losta and the rest, are available. It Must be i strong man—not a mere royal lay figure; a, -man-whobas princely-birth, reputation,-to-win_ initiatory respect, intellect to master the per plexed and difficult situation, and broad, liberal views which will conform to the new Constitution and compel Spain to conform, to it. But one Man has been mentioned recently who seems at all capable of meeting these :re quirements. it is said that General Prini• and some other of the, Spanish leaders 'have 'deter- . Mined to :nominate Prince Napoleon , to the tbrone, and to press hininpon the SpaniSh peo pie. The Prince prefesse.s to be ,an extreme liberalist, and; if the record Of, hislife, is to he accepted as trustworthy evidence, he is abetter democrat than any member of. any royal, fitmily.in Europe. If he shotild TadeepttlM kingship of Spain, and remain true to his prin. ciples,he - cVnuld be the very best man for .the `ftlace thatfould be selected. He has ability and force enough to make Spain a great :It .tion, Withotit .doing - violence to, hey newly- adopted free institutions; and he is so 'widely at .varkince. the Emperor. Of . the French, that, there / wou'd be no danger of the latter acquiring dangerOus influence ever Spanish affitirs. The difficulty is, that Prince Napoleon's democracy might not be able to withstand the temptation which would offer itself when the opportunity came to seize absolute power. Ahin in his position nearly always are liberal, 'nit they nearly always be come ' devout believers in the Divine right when they mount to power. Louis ,Napoleon professed liberality until the time came to seize the crown. But there "is thiti safeguard that the universal ten ency at this time is toward freedom, and a king, even of Spain, would be less likely now than ever to find the people willing• , to submit to usurpation. - At any rate, Prince Napoleon is the best man yet nominated for the 'position, and it will be Worth while to try him as an experiMent. Even: a littW whulesome despotism will be better for Spain than the anarchy which, now prevails. AN ABUSED errin.

Neither are there any mysterious currents to terrify the timid and destroy the bold. The deaths by drowning last summer were the result of recklessness and Inv Wise daring. There have been no drowning cases this -yen, and there need never be any, if bathers will keep close to the shore, and refuse to venture into deep water. Men are drowned in Ilk.!•surfonly when they trifle with the awful forces,of the sea.

The Temperance organizations - . of 'Philadel phia are numerous and. pii'Weiful,, Kiley coin prise thousands of earnest. men ',apd wonlen, honestly desirous of doing all they can to pro mote their good cause.' Why , can (;liey not unite their forces upon this central point, and take u . p the enforcement of the negleetea both as to the Unlicensed and half-licensed liquor-dealers, and the 'stile,of liquorS to minors? The field for such a work lies all arOtind them; and the difficulties. of; acConitiliShlng it are not so insuperable but that they would Yield'before the judicious and determined efforts of such a combination as the friendS of temperance and public morals could bring, tb pear upon them. The State is losing Six - Hundred Thousand Dollars ! every year . by the un licensed and half-licensed liquor-selling in Philadelphia alone, and 4ociety is losing in a way not to he reckoned in dollars and unts by the unlaWful training of minors in habits of intemperance. These evils to the State and to society are of the gravest character, and 'the public mind needs to have them impressed upon it with great plainness and earnestness. The reform needed in this direction is an at tainable one, whenever rightly-ftanized eflort is turned in the right direction., ' The election in Tennessee yesterday re suited inthe success of the Seater ticket. Sen ter is chosen Governor, 'and - there is likely to be a majority of his adherents in bah branches of the Legislature and in the Congressional delegation. This is to be regarded as a Demo cratic triumph—but a triumph gained, like most•of those by the same'party, by means of tr?kery and fraud. Nomina ly there was no Democratic candidate in the field in Tennes see; but, as in the late Virginia campaign, both the aspirants to the Executive chair called themselves Republicans, and stood upon professedly Republican platforms. .But Stokes really was the candidate of the Republican party, .and be bad the endorsement of the leading members, of the national administra tion. .Senter wore the fox's skin. He is at heart a Democrat, and his assumption of devotion to Republican principles was, a clever trick to win votes, .and to avoid the odium which at taches to the corrupt and disgraced Democratic Fatty among the loyal men of Tennessee. It is well established that he .received yesterday the support of large numbers of Republiains who were weak enough and foolish enough to trust his Professions of loyalty to the party and the administratiOn. It - may be that Senter would have been elected without the assistance of what may be called the Conservative divi- Sion of the __Republican _party„hut„_ . this Is at least doubtful. As it is, his triumph is a'fikeil Tact now, and we must accept grace possible - . it will 'not be vcry.long,:how 7 .: ever, before the unwise Republicans will find that they have gone after _false_gods, and put their faith in an unrighteous cause. If we had no better evidence of Senter's rmworthinessi it be sufficient - that Andrew Johnson sup ported him-and voted for him:- That- fact_ought_ to seal the fate of any political candidate in this country. And nowit tiu'ns out, after all, that President Grant did not •tgrateffilly receive" those fifty acres of ground offered to him at Brieksburg, New Jersey. Consequently the universal howl of indignation raised by Democratic and doubtful Republican newspapers over the con trary report was entirely Unnecessary, and without provocation. If President Grant had. chosenlo .accept the offer, and become lord and Master of half 'a hundred acres of desert wild, we do not know that it would have been any body's business but his own at any rate. He has as much right to accept a present as any other citizen, and he is not accountable to his friends or-enemies for such acceptance. The Thicksburg presentation was a clever scheme of the proprietor of sundry sandy acres to secure gratuitous advertisement of his improvements. That this incident, and the President's presence at a watering-place should form the ground work of all the assaults made upon him by his political enemies, is, in the highest degree, creditable to him.. These innocent trifles are. magnified and dilated' upon; because in the eXecutiOn of the man's official duties there is absolutely nothing of Which his opponents can reasonably complain. In a three-hours' speech delivered recently'in Jackson', Tennessee, the late Andrew Johnon' declared that "Bather than see the, wicked ride of Congress perpetuated, he would 'finch pre 7 fer to be the subject' of, some wise or just prince or emperor." If Mr. Johnson should conclude to emigrate and become the sUbject of some "just prince," nobody in this country would tear their lair or shed—any tears of anguish. But when he arrived in the do minions of any "just prince" in the world, he would find. thdt •• bldekgbardism of. the 'Execu tive, libel of •the government, and factious at tempts to stir up disaffection among the people Would insure his speedy imprisonment or exile. of. in this land we know him too well to regard. his demago: ism:With any feeling hut that contempt.

A number' of distin guished educators from different sections of the country will be present. Hon. Harry Houck, Deputy. Superintendent of Common Schools, who has charge of the arrangements, has received letters from every section of the Commonwealth, indicating a much larger attendance than usual. Some forty or fifty teachers in Rhiladelphia, of .both sexes-have signified their purpose to leave that ,city on Monday evening for Green.sburg. The various railroads have agreed to return free all teachers, duly certified, who pay full fare going to the Convention. At the cTose of its sessions, which will be on Thursday, arrance ments will doubtless be made for a pleasure excursion. ' . Frout - Ciettymburr.. U F.TTv_surno, August 6.—bieu.

An arclurological investigation of the coun try around 6ettyabarg,conducted by a learned antiqualian, has proved the truth of a belief long entertained by residents, that the battle field 21 Gettysburg had in the distant past been the scene ,of it bloody struggle between the Indians or of sonic unknown or long extinct race:- This fact Is attested by the exhumation of the. military implements of the combatants the.remairs of the dead in what is known as the Indian Meld, about a mile southwest of 1 Top and of, the .

Pennsylvania Coal Company in resuming work at their mines in the anthracite region, and that by the end .of this Week the entire coal region of 'the State will be again actively at work. From tho Richmond Whig of August 4 1 There is a strong probability that the price of anthracite coal will recede from present figures, rather than advance, with the ap- ' preach of autunin. The speculators and col liers, who imagined ,that they could control the trade to suit their owirgrasping designs; have discovered that "they have overdone the thing," and provoked the repeal of the duty on foreign coal. We-learn from the PhiladelL phia .IVorth American that "in the Seltnylkillr 0-, mon all parties seem to be thoroUghl3r aware of the mischief that has been clone, and: of the • danger threatening, and they are working with zeal and effect to rush their coal tti ket, in immense nantities.
