tlemen with all. fairness and impartiality, set
ting aside for the present the respectiNfe Plat
forms and principles of the parties while h they
represent, and, , viewing the question in a per
sonal light entirely, . endeavor to ascertain
Whether General Geary or Judge Packer is the
better fitted to discharge the duties of the Exe
cutive Of the State.
John' , lW. Geary, the standard , bearer of the
Republican party, is a living type of our Arne,
rican inStitUtions. While: 'yet a boy, by the
death of his father he was thrown upon his
ewn resciorces, with a mother and several
younger children dependent on him for sup
port. -Essentially a self-made man, he owes
the success which he has attained through life,
entirely to his , own energy and perseverance.
While acting with the Democratic party, pre
vious to the rebellion, lie was ever steadfast in
his opposition to the extension of slavery.
His services in the Mexican War and his ca
• reer as Mayor of San. Francisco, are too fa
miliar lO'need repetition, while the history of
his adininistration as Governor of Kansas forms
• one of the'most thrilling chapters of our coun
try'ii history.
When`Sumter was bombarded, Geary was
among the band of able and brilliant men who;
regarding fidelity to country as paramount to
all partisan considerations, left the Democratic
party and rallied to the support of the, admin
istration in the prosecution of the War. for 'the
- "Union. Among the first, to -respond to the
President's call for troops, he was commis
sioned Colonel by Governor , Curtin,autlaorized
to raise a regiment,• and, in an almost incredi
bly short space of time,, was ~on,, his way to
Washington. He early distinl,ruished, him
self as a quick, dashing, stubborn
fighter, a perfect.-soldier in manner, bearing,
coolness, courage and energy. After au un
usually brilliant caner in' connection, with the
army of the Potomac,, as commander of the
fammis White Star pa
Division, he accom nied'

• • eFinit - the - maa %Lk, had - brought order out
of confUsionln-bloody Kansas was eqtfal - to the
emergeney; The citizens of that city testify
that his adrrdnistration was distinguished by a_
course of firmness and impartiality - seldom sur
passed by a military Governor. -
Governor Geary is a politician, in the best
sense of that much-abused term. His training
has been broad and comprehensive; his ex
perience varied and. thorough. That he pos
sesses an inordinate greed for office is disproved
by his whole political career; that he is am
bitiMis to flo . tisess the approbation of his fellow
t eitligns-Ip not only legitimate but corn
,
Mendable.
GoVerpor Gear3r's popularity , with his party
is attested by the almost unprecedented una
nimity of the Convention which nominated
him. Economy has been a distinguishing
feature of his administration, the State debt
having been materially reduced since he be
curie Governor, while his veto has been
frequently interposed to
_prevent iniquitona
legislation. To assert that he has never made
onistakes would be equivalent to asserting that
.he was more than human. Taken as a whole,
bowever, his course has been peculiarly ac
ceptable to the 'people of this Commonwealth.
iHe.is a thorough, consistent, Republican of un
doubted integrity, possessing , the . unlimited
trust and confidence of President Grant, as he
did that of President Lincoln, , That he is in
corruptible is a well authenticated , fact, which

could be cledi&l, full, complete and satisfac

and slavery. Both men are 'able repreSenta

General Gbary is a piogressive Republican;

ot realize that slavery has'been abolished, and
the, slave oligarchy overthrown.

In the English House of Commons, on Fri
day night, the Home Secretary, in answer to a
question, -stated that the pressure of public
bAsiness hadsprevented the introduction of a
bill to establish a unirolm marriage law in the
United Kingdom, but that the government in
tended shOrtly to deal,with the question upon
liberal and unsectarian.principles. It is quite
time for some reforin: in this direction. The
Biitish marriage laws,' a tangled, discordant,
unjust and illiberal set of enactments, arA " dis 7
graceful to the nation and, to modern
It Is strange that a: country which claims
to be, and is, one of the - most advanced and
enlightened in , the World, should have neglected'
'so long to regulate properly the institution
which is of supreme importance, and which is
the very basig of_ all laws and social systems.
But England, ScOtland andireland have mar
; 'lane laws which differ widely from eacirother,
ailci conflict with each other, so, that, as in the
fatuous Yelverton case; it is not diffieult for clui 7 --
fling lawyers to prove in England the in
validity of marriages celebrated in other•
Of the grand divisions of the
, kingdoin'. r The
aggregate amount of fraud; inisery and injus
tice which has resulted from this scandalous
ncongruity
,is 'enormous. The difference be
tween the laws has.,been used mereileasly by
- rives ' against their husbands and husbands
against the.' wives, to, the torture, degradation
and pecuniary loss of the - persecuted persons;;`
and ,the histories of the more. flagrant cases
lave excited - the indignation of world with,
until recently,- any elltift, onthe
part of the
__Eritish_ to bring,aliout a reform._
Our 'own divorce laws, differing in thevarious__
States, are - bad enough and tnntild enotigh;but .
a marriage made in Pennsylvania, for instance,.
- is - valid in any-part - of - the - country, and .cannot
"be successfully - disputeti-if it has-been cele
brated in accordance with our civillaws. . The
experiences, of • various well-known 'trials in
England, prove that such is not the case,in
Great Britain, but that a woman may go
thrOugh the most elaborate forms with greatest
care, and yet be made the victim of an inge
nious villain.
It would be a hopeless task to attempt to
give here anything like a complete explanation
of the diflerenees'between the marriage laws
Ofthe British Islands. But we may state the
principal peculiarities of each. In England a
marriage may be either civil or religious: If
the latter, the ceremony must be performed in
church during the "canonical hours," between.
SA. M. and 12 A. M.. If the rite is celebrated
in a dissenting chapel, the superintendent
registrar of the . ; ,district • must be
Present. Orie of the .contracting parties
must reside in tte parish . in which
the ceremony is performed, from seven
to fifteen days beforehand, and a license must
be.procured unless the banns are read aloud In
church. In every case the parties must be
married bet Ween S mid 12 in the Morning, or
the marriage is void. ••This is thelliost ridicu
lous provision of the laW. It 'ls' even worse
than silly, it is tyrannical and unjust, .
In Scotland, the laws are, much More Ilk..
Marriage is purely a civil contract. EiMa clan
deStine marriages are valid, although the parties ,
are liable to a small fine. "No"`prelmunary no-`
tice or license is necessary, and no particular
fimm is PreScribed. The contract may be ver
bal or in
, :writing. A man may point to
woman and declare her to be his wife. If she .
assents to his statement, they are married as
well as if an archbishop had read the church
service at them. Indeed, the mere fact that a
man and woman live together, and are by corn—
mon repute man and wife, is suflicient evi
dence of marriage, without any ceremony or
eontract whatever.
But Ireland is oppressed far more than either
England or Scotland. In that unhappy land
the cruelty of the British gdvancie t et,feaches

marriage. The most extraordinary of the

Vri When General Roseerans ' went to White

to humble himself at the feet, pf unrecon-
styucted rebeli, a good' many :peonle ,thought,

;before* the battle. They, , calcUlated upon

knowing well that something more than the
ordinary inducements would he necessary to

IlOsecrans.
;The resuscitation of Andrew Johnson and his
elevation to the United States Senate' cannot
be regarded as an umnitigated calamity if it is
eVer.consummated. To be sure, if A. J. ever
ydantS his foot upon the carpet of the Senate
chamber, he will.stir that quiet and peaceable
old apartrnent as it has not been stirred fOr
many years before.. He has, many ancient
grudges to revenge upon the Republican Sena
tors, and we may expect to have the reports of
proceedings so stuffed, with ,his -insolence,
coarseness, and blackguardism r that respectable
newspapers will be compelled to apologize for
publishing thein. There is something in the
very atmosphere of the Senate chamber which
excites Johnson to indecency.. is a kind of
Circe's palace in which he takes on his original
swinish nature. 'But this, goed tiling will' come
out of his conduct : He Will stand there as the
representative man of :the American Demi:>•
craCY, and in,that capacity he will - do more, to
bring that: faction into disgrace and contempt
before the civilized world than the Democratic
papers could ever have done by united and per
siStent effort. . His presence will be.unpleasant,
but we will bear with the humiliation for the
saite of the consequences.
The eclipse was a success. The chances in
this cliniate were against the day being clear,
bait. as far ,as we have heard, along the whole
line , of the. obscuration, from Alaska to North
Carolina, the sun was :visible during the larger`
part of the time of the eclipse. tinseientifie
and commonplace,humanity enjoyed excellent
opportunities to examine the phenomenon
through smoked-glass,-.Mid what is much more
'to the purpose, the astronomers who were stn
tinned along the line of totality, were able
study the, various phases of the eclipse and to
secure good Photographic :views of
,them. The
number. of scientific attics ei Red in these
Pils:rvations 15":18.,_v_ely * _ large, and the : prepa.
bonsmade for the event were so elaborate, -
that we may expect:,m6St—satisfactory results::
from their_lalMrS. 'For-this reason the eclipse-
Saturday.may be considered one of the most
impoitant of late years, and it gains in

an precisely in ratio -with the advances made
in - astronomical science since the period of - the -

YONKERS', N. Y., August 9. --Shortly after
,
midnight a fire broke out on 'Wills avenue,
and prea4l. rapidly, involving a large number
of buildings in an extensive conflagration, and
in spits of all efforts, a large amount of valua,-
.; blo property" was destroyed, involving: very
heavy loss, amounting to $70,000 or $l,-
- 00000.
The felloNving buildings were destroyed:
Pareon's limber yard; J. B. Wlllards's lumber
ard; B. F. Brevoort's coal yard; A. Austin &
Co.'s "four and fe.eit store; yin. A:Ackerman%

Win.. cobin &Co.'s pickle manufactory;
three new frame buildings, belonging to J. &
4;. Stewart, and J. R. Van Harlen's' carpenter
The loss Is rendded heavy by the fad? that
the fire was fed with most combustible mate
rial, and that the firemen had' not sufficient
apparatus to, enablethem to stay the progress ,
of the flames. •

Ncw Yong, August, 9.--;The suspension of
the eminent dry goods . cornmiesiert firm or .
Bowers, Beekman & Co., announced to-day,
created considerable surprise in financial cir-
Ao.s. Their liabilities are estimated at 53,000,-
Thee - failure is' Attributed to the steady' de
elinein woolens and .the depreision. in the
woolen trade since the war. The firm at the
close of the war was estimated as worth over
one million s and they have made large.
,ad
vances' to woolen mills, whicb the manufac
tured goods have not paid, owing to :the fall
in values. ThC firm always stood . very high,
being regarded as one , of the staunchest Id the
dry-goods trade.
It IS stated that a Boston capitalist offered
to advanceoll the - money required to Trq :
.the
house for a year to come, -but on con
sultation it was decided to suspend and ask
extension: The offsets are reported large, and
the friends of the Ann say they, can pay in

15r.s - ner, Aug. S.—The money market worked steadily
and easily throughout the week. at live • fewen per
cent. as the extreme rates on call loans, and 734a10 per
cent. on discounts. The ruling figure on. governments
was six per cent, but the transactions at fire were more
.than exceptional: The purchase - of two millions of
bonds by the government paid for In two-thirds na
tional bank notes and one:third legal tender, having in
creased the supply of currency in the banks, of 130 value
to hold as n reeerve,leading stock houses alto easily
accommodation in that description of money below"
lbo legal rate. The statement Of the associated banks
for the week ending yesterday makes rather ea unfa
vorable exhibit in the continued reduction of the /eget
reserved, and is against_ the expectation of any greater
ease in money than at present exists. Notwithebtuding
the gain of 41,000400 in coin from the b a lan cet amount
during the week by the Government of specie
bad decreased 31,%5 with total shipments for the
•week amounting to _only 81,5w.000, whit. the legal
tenders had likewise decreased in the neighborhoOd
•of forty.fixo thousand-making a total loss of lawful
money reserve of ei.913,000. Agninet this is an increased
expansion of over four and a !quarter millions in the
item of loans. The gain in national batik note currency'
Is represented by an increase in the deposits of over three •
and three-quarter mullions, thus adding to the liabilities
of the banks without strengthening their ,conditiou.
The amount. held in lawful money -in excess of the
twenty-tive per cent. legal reserve allows a reduction of
