Executive functions. Our exami nation of the Pardon• Report does not detect a single case in which, in our judynent, the Covemor has not had good and sufficient 7VaSODS : for his action. In the cele brated case of. Rester, Vaughn, there is, per haps, too strong an endorsement of the previous character of the prisoner, and a state ment of , tie relative guilt of the father and mother of the murdered child not borne out by the real facts,of the , case ; but the " five thou sand respectable petitioners " .who solicited that pardon did SO on the simple basis of mercy to a young woman; lying under sentence of death in a foreign land, and' there will be no fault found, if the mantle of Executive cleniencv has been stretched to cover sin which really lay as much at the door of Rester Vaughn as at that of the scoundrel who was the father of her The rardon.Report is satisfactory and very creditable. The i restricted exercise of the par_ (toning power which it proves as the rule_ of 1..-;overnbr Ceary's administration, while it nal; ill not preclude , proper and just applications for pardons,. ought to serve as a practical pro test against the growing evil of pursuing the lioverlior,With unreasonable demands for, his intervention in Mideserved cases., We purpose a further diseiliSion of this subject, at a suitable time. We - ,: haNe especially noted the influence cwhichthe,consideration of doubt has had upon the Ekeentive , mind, \in the bestowal of par ,donS,llecause Governor Geary has now before !him - the interesting , and important case or Dr. Schoep . pe, a case about which the element of doubt has gathered and strengthened it has almost reached that point where 41oubt of guilt transforms itself into conviction cl innoeenee. The cases from which we have tuoted :ivero all for minor offences, and the idea of doubt weighed successfully in favor of the condemned. In this case, altunan life is at stake ; and we receive a fresh assurance from theperusal of the document now before us that with all the doubts which hang about the nature and cause of Miss Steinneke's death.; with the, absence of any sufficient proof of ! Dr.., Schoeppe's connection with it; with the dissi pation of that " doubtful circumstantial evi= deuce " which was made to hang about the will, now proved to be genuine, Governor 4 easy will adorn the•early pages of the Pardon Report of his new term of office 'with the re cord crfapardon for which there is as clear and strong a title as •can be found upon all the re-' cords Crf,his past Administration. WILE TELEGRAPH STRIKE. The fact that the . :Western Union Telegraph Companyis, practically, a monopoly, and that its buSiness inlay sometimes be done in ways not most satisfactory to its customers, certainly formed no excuse for the strike among its operators .which is now endangering life and property, and causing ;incalculable business inconvenience and doniestie diitrem through ' out 'this county: Vire, have rarely bad a stronger illustration of the iniqiiity and folly of the " striking" busi ness than is exhibited in this case. The or dinary trade strikes are bad enough in their demoralizing, (Areas -- Upon Workmen and in their deningeruent of particular branches of business.' But for the operators of a great sys tem of, telegraphing suddenly to refits, to work, for cactse or without cause, and so cut ell from the entire - public this VIM important channel of inter-communication, an' outrage which ishould* tnilowed 'hy the deepest condemna tion and kite severest punishment. Most of , these telegraph operators are young Alen. '.Pioffinsing fidelity to their employers : and to tlic,public, they. have bound themselves by a fieereioatarto "forsake their allegiance to corporations antl'ilmliVidtials;" and to " act in whaled inciriney ybe required" by the, l'elegriapho* kap& ; Upon a frivolous pre treat, staited4, sortie dit3iatisfied clerk in , San whfre, as it beisr,:tipearsi no change ersidMiniSfiatiOn has ocinired, except in a slight increase of pak," , theiihOle business of the country, • the, safety, of railroad travel, the thoutinitpri4afeintereSts or life and death,, fill • dependent on the ooations,,of the telegiaph; are innme,diateli jebpardy, with flip-, pant disregard of the greallnerests at stake in the `cOniniercialf and' of the, countryo , • ; , r„, t. The Western Fillop Company has displayed 'conamendkble energy and promptness in dping that is possible' to' tiVert troin the public the 'disastrous consequences of this insane , , folly, and it is to , be hoped that it will take such: measures as Will , secure the public' from, a . repetitiori of such proc,eedings. :, -No corpora , lion or,_ individual this country deed be at 'the mercy of snail a reckless combination, and the Western:Union, , Telegraph Company; will -be frilly justified in protecting .itself against men who have; thins , proved themselves unworthy of the high trust cot traittedto them. *e believe that this Company ' has already • giVen considerable encouragement to the em ployment ,Of female operatorsond this on couragement might to be greatly extended. Is a business in which a large number Of, women might be advantageOusly occupied, 'and the Company will do well: to 'offer every inducement to secure such,a Corps of 'operators, men and women, as can be relied on for a faithful pcirformance of duty, for which it, can, of course. have no further confidence in the members of the Telegraphers' League. Had there been any real grieva,fice in this case, it could have,been redressed by a proper repre sentation and remonstrance, or if not, it would lime !been time enough to inflict all this danger 'and inconve n ience upon the country; when , othentneau bad been exhausted. As the case stands, itpresents a. picture of culpable folly. which deserves 'nothing but universal con demnation. A GOOD MINING DILL, The recent mining disastersin this State, and the conse4uent forcible demand of the people' for reformation .of the abuses which made 'those dreadful - a6Adents possible, have induced prompt action on the part of the Legislature. In :the State ' Seuate, oh Wednesday, ' Mr. Turner, a representative of the Avondale dis-. trict, introduced a bill providing, that each mineshall have two openings; that a map of each mine shall be furnished to an inspe.ctor; that upon' complaint of an inspector of thd dan gerous condition of a mine, the Courts may interfere; that, ventilation, pumps, &c., shall be controlled by an overseer; that safety lamps shall be used as well, as, speaking tubes ; that the hoisting apparatus shall have a safety' catch, and that the car• shall be covered ; that boilers shall be inspected ; that there Shall be a separate Inspector for Luzerne yid Carbon, and that the Schuylkill Inspectot:shall extend his sway over Columbia, Northumberland and Dauphin. The Inspectors are to be appointed , on recommendation of a Board of Examiners. This Board to be chosen by the Governor, by practical coal miners and mining engineers, and the Court of Common Pleas. As well as we can judge from the brief atr; stract of. Senator Turner's bill, furnished' by telegthph, it is in every respect satisfactory. It provides completely for the special eauses.which induced the Avondale disaster; and, by placing in the . hands of competent inspectors authority to examine the general condition of mines and to appeal to the courts for redress, it arranges to meet any other emergency that may arise, and to reform any other condition of insecurity that may become . apparent. It was, easy enough to draft a bill which - would cover this much of the ground ; for the demands of the newspaper press upon this subject have been explicit and clearly defined; and Mr. Turner, besides enjoying the advantage 'of fanriliarity with the subject, had the advice and co-opera tion of the LnierneMiners' Union, The only diflicidty 'that was to be apprehended was that the appointment of Inspectors' would be placed , in the hands of politicians who would use their power rather .for the advance:flier:it of _their personal interests than foi the perfect fulfillment of the general designof the, laW. ' Whether the one political, par ty or the other secured control of such ap pointments, the result would be unsatisfactory to the people, arid we fear that the work would' not be done with intelligent and conscientious' thoroughness. We 'give to , Senator Turner, who is a Dembcrat, credit for a sincere 'desire to secure the perfect administration of the law, and to obtain absolute protection for the miners, without regard to any political end.' His bill removes the appointing power almost entirely from tbe,sphere of politics, and requires - that candidates for Inspectorships shall submit to an 'examination by a , board com posed of men selected by three different parties, - some of them necessarily dlsinterestedi all of them likely to'choose honest men. This we regardas the, best Arad Most'important fea ture of the bill t and we hope it will commend itself to the Legislature as in every,respect ex cellent and:Satisfactory to the' public. The' members,nray be sure that any other disposi tion of the appointing power which seems to be less disintereirted and just than this is, will not find favor with the community. We hope,- bow ever,that the entire bill will prove acceptable to a majority of the Legislature, irrespective of Party, and that It will be passed immediately. TIME MISSION; :f We commend to benevOlent people in this city the rather fuelaneholy, report of the Mid night Mission. This institution, for' a year or two past ; has been doing, a great and noble work in a very , quiet manner among fallen women. le has reclaimed many of these most unpromising subjecti from their horrible gradation, and hasfound for them comfort4ble homes where they are removed from temptation ' - aidto permanent reforniation.. Besides This it has brought More than two dred of the , poor outcasts 'within the influence, of the mission, and is now. laboring with earn estness, tact and delicacy to deliver theiti'frOm the slavery in which they are hound: We are, afraid that theOnost(mtatious chp'aotoi of' this charity deprives it of that cordial public sym pat by which is. necessary to• the 'existence of any such undertaking, for we find 'that the mission, after a year of narrow economy, is in debt.. We appeal to the' henevolent'M respond liberally to the appeal of the - manag . ers for assistance., Surely no other :WOrli claims the generous sympathy and support of Christian men and women as this does. When money is needed for hospitals, for asylums, for associations for supplying food .and clothing to the poor or for foreign missions, people Pour out their money lavishly ;.but here is a "charity that is as much nobler than common alms giving, as the degradation hito which these. women have fallen is mere piteous and dre,ml-', THE DAILY timusugmhzall , tut , Mire stdrerplg.

The balance 'is made, still Mote even by', the doubt that exists , as to Senator Lowry's, vete: The purchase of 'One Sena* will 'be all-suffi cient to defeat the:bill, amiiit stands to reason that the effort; vill be , made. We 'have not seen the bill, and 'we dt) not feel confident that it is perfect; but the police reform; is needed, and if the bill is defeated by Republican votes, it will be very hard io convince the public that somebody haS not i nained and received his price.

If the question of , Papal Infallibility comes up, it will be the sig naller a protracted and bifter debate, unlcss. as Las been suggested, it should be smug led through by the :Jesuits, who ,are not, a little, crestfallen at the unlooked-for , .olistacles that hale come in the - way to the realization of their projects. Their strategy, how ever, will • be met ,in the +Council with all the Arts, of ecclesiastical diplomacy. Their opponents are men perhaps no' less sub tle and wily than themselves, and • certainly with more bf,the influence thatgrows out of a reputation for. integrity. of purpose and dignity of character. Should the question Of Papal Infallibility he, pertnittcd to subside; it would doubtless make -a great chasm in the pro granime of business. It mould be a sore dis appointment to His Holiness. His interest in the Council would lose its principal spring. He is said to be confident of the success of the seheme. lie has cherished the illusion,. if it he an illusion, so long, that it, seems like a reality. But, iu fact, of the Issue of the plot, he knows no more than the' man in the moon. No down, too, he-is lust as igno rant of how, long the Council will last. Mecin time, some of the scribes, and seothsayers,and. chronologists are prophesying from the expe rience of past Councils as to the duration of the (,present: They tell us that with the ex ception of the Council Of Trent, which lasted sixteen years,- and the fifth Lateran ' which took, five, the great Councils of the Church have despatched their • business with remarkable speed. The first Council of Nice, for instance, broke up in about three months; the first of Constantinople in two ; the Colin- , cif of Chalcedois, in three weeks; the first Lateran, in eleven days; the second Lateran, in seventeen days ; the third Lateran, in four teen days; and the foarth Lateran in twenty days. Thus the Councils in Rome have been remarkably short-lived, and perhaps from this analogy, the ecclesiastical almanac-makers are disposed to predict the brevity of the Vatican Council, and wish to prepare the minds of the faithful for its dissolution at no distant date. • An unexpected obstacle to the facility of debate is said to have been found in the con fusion of tongues which pre.vails in the Council. The scholastic ecclesiastical Latin, with its antique perfume of primevaltimes, it seems, would not answer the purpose. The Bishop of Mantchooria could make no head way with the Bishop of Minnesota. Con stantinople and Cincinnati were barbarians to each other. The ancient misunderstanding between Paul and Peter was a trifle to that between the venerable fathers from Brazil and . the prelates of Australia. Each nationality pronounces Latin after the fashion of its own. language, • even sup .posing it so familiar to the, mass . of the Bishops'as-to enable them to handle it freely in grave discussions. In this dilemma one of the members of the Council suggested the adoption of French as the universal lan guage, but his motion savored of sacrilege, as it seemed profane to treat.of diVine things in such a secular language. According to pub lic minor, which is not, howeVer, to. be too much relied on, the Fathers fell back on the language of the Vulgate, as the nearest ap proach to inspiration ; Latin it has been from .the beginning. and Latin it shall remain for ever world without end.

' WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.—Rear-Admiral C. H. Poor informs the Navy, Department, under date of December 26, off Key West, that the . Severn, his flag ship, in company with the ' Dictator, left Tybee 'toads on M,onday, De cember 27, for hey West. - At first they had clear -weather and enioeth water, .the Die : tator, under the -favorable circumstances, ' steaming seven knots: easily—the inert being able towalk abOut the deck without inconvenience. Next day the wind blew strong from the southwest, 'freshening gradu ally to' a stronggale; with a heavy sea, the sea making a constant breach over the decks of the monitor, and the spray dying as high as the turret,gallery.. The men were unable to . sh ow - themseh - es. • She was apparently making about 4 knots headway.. The Severn was not ' able to keep up mow than steerage-way, and When she pitched it brought the 'proliellors so much out of the water that the'engin&S raced to such an extent, the propellor 'striking the iVater so. forcibly, that there was great danger, of giving way, and the ship wasltaided to under canvass. , The monitor was enabled to hold het posi tion durisg the night, the Severn being at least ten isles to leeward of, her at dayligh During the ile and most of the passage i . t would have been impossible to communicate or render any assistance, as a boat could not .possibly have approached the monitor, or could any ,one With sa4ty have stood on her deck.
