TIIE DIMMER r
While there is much reason for honest regret
at the result of the contest for the District, At
torneyshiP, the - unanimous decision of the
. court of Common Pleas will be accepted as
law, by the law-loving people of this commu
nip% The regret is two-fold : first, that the in
' vestigations into the frandS of--the election of
1568 were not pressed a little further, so that
tbe'will of -the - majority of the legal voters of
Philadelphia Night have been executed; and
seciind, that, whatever Mr: Sheppard's per
sonal' merits and professional fitness may be,
we lose, for the time, an officer who, during
the short time of his office, has accomplished
more for Philadelphia, in breaking :up the
- gambling-houses_and_lottery-offices and other
Iniquities which curse this community, than
any officer who has preceded him.
Mr: Gibbons has adorned/his official station
by a career of integrity, courage and ability
which we .can ill aflord to lose from any de
partment of public service, and .we tiust that
his supersedure, by Mr. Sheppard or by any, one
else, will he beta temporary one. The Repub
lican party owes it. to itself to take Mr. Gibbons
up, and re : elect him by such a majority as
will leave all contest out of the question.
The past contest hag been a most protracted,
comp:heated _and laborions --- business. - Time,
money, and talent have been freely. expended
upon the difficult task of USearthing the
rascally plot to defeat the will of the people of
- Philadelphia, and after all, it'is shown that, the
laborers stopped short of success, whether un
able to go farther, or believing_ that' they had
gone-far 'enough, we know not.
Mr. Sheppard will undoubtedly endeavor to .
_ discharge the arduous duties of the office thus
asssigned him, honestly and conscientiously.
If he shall 'succeed in carrying out the good
work of reform which Mr. Gibbons has so
_
well' begun, it will be - a fortunate - circum
stance for Philadelphia, and will go far to
temper . the disappointment which the un
avoidable conclusions of the Court have
necessarily caused among a large body of our
best citizens;
THE DELAWARE RE VOLIITION.
The certainty that the negroes will vote next
fall has caused a greater Commotion in Dela
ware than in any other of tbe Northern and
Riddle States. The noble soul of the model
Senator Saulsbury not only is filled with rage
and•anguish at the thought that black men will
attain to the dignity of citizenship, but he is in.
keen distress because hp, foresees that such an
accession to the Republican vote will destroy
Lis power in the State. The Saulsburys and
the Bayards for years have divided Delaware
between them ; and each family has ruled in
its own section with imperial power over sub
missive and unquestioning vassals. While voters
could' be openly botight in the lower counties,
as they are bought at every eleetion, and While
Delaware was filled with a race of Democrats
so bigoted and ignorant that the proverbial
Berks county Dutchman seemed a miracle of
iiberality_and intelligence compared with them,
there was nohope for Delaware. She was
bound band and foot in the thrall of her rulers,
and her respectable people were doomed to the
constant humiliation of being represented in
the Senate of the United States by a hopeless
.41ebauchee._The_negro vote will change all
this; itwill kick Saulsbury out, and give the
State into the hands of Republicans who will
wake the people from their lethargy.and recon
struct the government.
__lf the better men of the State get into power
they will abolish the whipping post - and pillory; -
they will organize a common school system,—
for Delaware never had one, under State
direction; they will send decent men to Con
greMand overthrow the authority of the Sauls
bury-Bayard clique ; they will have a Legisla
ture which will encourage every enterprise that
will develop the resources of the State and add
to its wealth, and will take some measures to
bring the benighted people of the
lower counties into cont r act with that
outside world with which , they are at
present in little sympathy. In all that
makcs a:State rich and powerful and entitled
to respect, Delaware is fifty years behind — her
sisters; and the fault is chai•geable entirely to
the Democratic party; and its miserable bigotry
- and•conservat4m. We believe that in future
years rum will' date the beginning of a new
era for the. State from the day the. first negro
vote is cast. The blacks themselves may not
possess gr9ter enliglionient than the mass of
the white people; but they will vote with the
Republican party, and the success of that party
is Delaware's direst need at this moment.
CIVIL SEILVICIL
Mr, Jenekes has at last got his Civil Service
bill up, .irtthe Rouse. The subject of the re; -
form•proposed in this bill has been exten
sively discussed, for a year past, and the essen
tial principle_ of competitive examination for
the twenty 7 odd,thousand offices comprised in
the bill, is generally Understood. The Civil
Service' reform, has been : very deliberately
matured, 'and will be fully discussed in Con
gress before it is put upomits,passage. It is, in
some aspects, one of the most important.mea

3JIE iLiGwr, OF -1111 E MINN
The editbr and publisher of the New York
Sim, dal d snnott need, in his salutatory, on Sat
urday last, that his quarrel with Mr. Dana, of
the 'Sun, could " allord to wait." Mr. -Dana
(Ices not se(fn satisfied with this postponement,
and opens new volleys of abusive Billingsgate.
ttFon alr. Young. Whetempon, the latter oon
eludes that waiting has ceased to be a virtue,
and I etut us the fie with a pieliminaiy broad
side of most damaging effect. This first broad-,
side, which loses some little of its force by the
usual typographical blunders of a new news
paper,gives that interesting letter of Alr.Dana's
in which be recommended himself to President
Julinsoulor the Collectorthip of New York,
ar.d a running cotament upon his journalistic
and aii6ial career, exceedingly unpleasant to
lead. if one has happened to, indulge any admi
ration for Id.r. Dana's character or past ser-
vices.
It 'is needless for us to repeat our often
expressed distipproval of newspaper 'personali
ties, but 'Mr. Dana's has cliosen to find his
plait in the most violent personalities against
all who oflend him,' and it is hardly to be ex
,ected that he will not be repaid in his own
The New York ,qvn has done nothing to
elevate-American-journalism_or_to improve
Ateeticaii political or social morals under its
present management. It has wholly and per
t•istently disappointed the hopes and wishes of
its real friends.. It delights in professing that
it "shines for all." But it shines, unfortu
nately, chiefly as the face of the Jacob Marley
did on Sciooge's door, "like a bad lobster in a
dark cellar:"'
FAST ItAIkLUOADIN

the fast mail train, leaving here at 12.30 P. 11.,
and the corresponding train from Pittsburgh.
This train stops nowhere between the two
cities except at Harrisburg, Altoona and .Gal
litzin. The stoppage at the latter place is. in
compliance with the rule of the road, which re
quires every train to stop • there, on aount of
the heavy Mountain grade each side. The
run from . Philadelphia to Hanisburg, 107
miles,_ is made in three hours and
twenty minutes. From Harrisburg to Altoona,
132 miles, and from Gallitzin to Pittsburgh.
Iosmilesrare-the other long stretches; and the
time on them is correspondingly short. On no
other railroad in America are . such long dis
tancesmade 'without stopping - for wood and
water. But they are made on the Pennsylva
nia Railroad 'without inconvenience. A day
or two .ago, when the train from Altoona
arrived at Harrisburg, there was still a good
supply of water in the tank, and this after a
continuous run of 132 miles. The New York
companies tried this year, as usual, to make
shorter time over their roads to the West than
the Pennsylvania. But the latter, having the
shortest road, the best and the safest, started
tlils train, which is one vvith which the New
York lines cannot pretend to compete.
A very sensible article in the Press this
morning upon the necessity for the immediate
application of radical sanitary measures to
Bedford street, has this language in its conclu
sion : " All this is based upon the rumor that
the relapsing fever is alarmingly prevalent in
Bedftird street. • It may or may not prove -
true. " The remarks of the Press were pro
voked by the description of the infected dis
trict published in this paper yesterday. • That
description was the result of careful personal
observation, arid was strictly correct in every
particular. But if the Press questioned the
facts it could easily have removed its doubts by
visiting the locality. It is a queer sort of a
newspaper that does not know anything of the
existence of a contagious disease which has
stricken down two hundred . victims in two
weeks within three squares of its office.

HAvw, May 4.--Governor _English
was, inaugurated this afternoon. , , There wai a
large assemblage present at the ceremonies.
Governor English communicated ' his message
to the Legislature. He assumes the duties
of the' °Mee With 'a profound - sense
of gratitude and an earnest desire to co-ope
rate in whatever legislation the public in
terests may demand. 'As - the past, year has
not been.marked with events specially calling
ter legislation, he .suppeses the term of the
session will be short.• , .
Ile recommends that the 'necessarrsteps
be taken for , calling , it convention . at the
earliest practicable moment foram-revision: of
the State constitution. This he:considers
necessary arid exptalient. r , '
If the State dettirmines to facilitate.hy; any
act of its own the Operation of the Fifteenth
Amendment, it is necessary id alter the Con
stitution for such purpose.
The nght to vote is &constitutional . privi
lege in Connecticut, and the qualifications of
an elector are prescribed by the State con.sti
tallow. The General Assembly has now 'power,
over the subject. That instrument, 114 it now
stands, prescribes no qualification for ,any
others than white citizens:
The GoVernor is not insensible to the cir
cumstances attending the'adoption'of the Fif
,teeuth Amendment as„ proclaimed by the
`President of the. United States. The fact is
notorious that the ratification of several of the
States was accomplished by chicaner,y -- and
force, which would properly vitiate any, con
tract between one'cinzen and another.
In its object and "effect, too. it is revolution=
ary of that system of government which
recognizes local self-government as necessary
- to- the stabilityand-i ntlispensable- to-the prac—
tical working of republican institutions.
By the power of approuriate legislation
Which it gives to Congress it commits to 'the
absolute control of the general Government
theright to•vote in every , State, and the mock='.
cries of elections which haveln the past few
years been held in the Sonthern States, under.
the bayonets , of the F ederalGovernment,are a
sufficient 'commentary . upon the liability to
abuse such an important power. ,
But still,tlai forms of law in the adoption of
this amendment have been complied with,
and it bas been officially proclaimed as an in
tegralportion of the organic law. The State
of Connecticnt would never give up the right -
to manage her - own affairs in all_times
.past,
in ber own 'way 1 should -not :hesitate to
• recommenda—W -for-ytmr acToptiom ; but :T=
know of no way in which this can be accent
pl6hed., The State is powerless for that par
pose; -but, as nearly two centuries ago, its his
' toric oak preserved its chartered liberties, so"
should: ts people now treasure in their hearts
tbis vital principle of free government, for
the time will surely come when it will he
again-recognized as the safeguard of the Re
, cowmen& the Legislature• to express its
qpinion for its influence upon the Represen
tatives of the State in Congress that a general
amnesty for all merely political offence,s - be
forth with proclaimed.
The financial condition. of the State con:
times. good. During the past year the funded
debt has been seduced $346,600. -The entire
liabilities of the State at

of the present fiscal year were $6,727,406 69.
