PEACOCK, FETHERSTON & CO. Thursday. May 12, 1870. AFICEBATHOVGH Recorder 'Beckett, inhis charge to the jury at the close 'Of the McFarland trial, said: -", In•a few h ours, this base, which has daily beep prorninentiv,presented to the public eye •atiring - Ave - weelts, - , qUittiy from iys gene: °Dirt() be rtmembered for the precedent which maybe eatablielied by your verdict." , We think the Recorder's prediction more than likely. to be fultilletl, but the question ariseswhether it ought to be. Beyond a doubt - theincidents of this case are _not far behinffthe reaUssueitselLin_point of importance. The whele affair is singularly, sadly and startlingly significant in almost every aspect in which it presents itself. For many years no secular paper in the land has bad a larger share of public confidence as an oracle of wis -dom, a guardian - of — morals, -and---a-repre sentative of philanthropy than the Tribune, It has assumed to have a position on a platform quite above the impure atmosphere of corrupt political strife and ungodly personal ambition, Anil, though, grappling with the great issues of the age, to lie doing so from the elevated stand-point of enlightened statesmanship, pure patriotism, and stern moral conviction: True the faith o the community in all these high prete s was more than a little shocked . wbe Abe Richmond. bail-bond revealed that the- ditor which had done . more- than anyother to produce and perpetuate ---the-war,vas-eager-to_be_foremost_in_the_reseue of the arch-traitor. But this sympathy with the leader of so bad a cause, shocking as it was, was soon, by special pleading and apology, made to "pass quietly from -the -public gaze,". - and a disposition was shown to overlook it a , ' ___.an.offerice_for_which.__znapy.other:lgood.ser, vices rendered a compensation. Shall it be so with the developments made during the - McFarlandWhat - ivere - these --develop-- meats?,__ First,_ Richardson himself was pro- sninently connected with the Tribune as one of ifs editors. Next, Mrs. Sinclair and Mrs. Cal . noun, whom Abe infamotm letters to Mrs,. - McFarland w‘ere written, and by whom such loose sentiments _touching .the marline ?elk Lion and the conditions of social respectability were uttered on . the witness-stand, stood re lated to - that paper as regular contributors and correspondents, 'Next, .among the Tribune's attaches comes Junius Henri Browne, con cerning whom, in hiS appearance as a witness, the following remarkable report was made; Q. M r. Browne, do you believe in a Supreme rieivg:T - A." Q. Do you believe in a system of rewards and punishments? A. Not according to the Cab ' vinistic doctrine; I do believe in a system - of compensation. Q. Do you believe that there is any other consequence of the violation of an oath than the loss of self-respect? A. I believe that a man who would tell a lie under oath would be more or less unhappy hereafter. Q. Tell me what consequence you attach to the violation of an oath? A. Loss of respect, loss of honor, ail(' spiritual degradation ; be .l4ve in the Bib; 1 believe in the Divine character of it, but that there are errors in it. Q. In what part of it do you believe as Di vine? A. If you will give the a week, I will write an essay on the subject for you. - Tile Recorder here interfered. Last of all comes the proprietor and chief editor of the Tribune himself, who not only aided in engaging assistant counsel to have McFarland convicted and executed, notwith standing his oft-repeated protests against capi- ' tal punishment, but, also, as Mr. Reed testi fied, again and again spoke to him of McFar land as " a dirty d—d villain, etc." Such are the Tribune elements brought to light during this investigation. Such are the persons fur nishing the "make-up" of the daily and weekly sheets which flood our land, and - which, perhaps, do as much toward giving shape and color to public sentiment as any other agency that,could be named. Shall this, we ask, be permitted to " pass "quietly from the public gaze?" Not the - Tribune alone, however, is involved in this question, so far-reaching in its results. The PUlpit, in some of , its high towers, is here concerned, as well as the Prem. Near midnight two watchmen on Zion's walls are Summoned to a hotel to unite in matrimony the dying seducer to the woman whom he had estranged from her husband. The deed is done, and the soul of the guilty paramour wings its way into eternity. Shall this, too, be permittedto " pass quietly from the public gaze?" It would seem that there Is a general disposition that it shall. For since this horrid midnight scene, one of those divines has been in our city lecturing in behalf of the Young lien's Christian Association, to a larger audi ence than ever before greeted him here ; he has also, by-request,-delivered a-lecture to the -stu dents of 'the Theological Seminary at Prince ton, which called forth unbounded applause. The other clerical hero of the Astor House also still 'retains his position as pastor of a promi nent church in New York, notwithstanding since his assistance at the memorable and mournful marriage solemnity, he has declared from his pulpit his solemn conviction that the permanence of the marriage tie should depend en the disposition Of the parties_! From these indications it really looks as if the public was inclined to let the profane mockery of the offici ators at the Astor House marriage, for which nothing having the semblance of a truthful and satisfactory apology-has yet been made, "pass quietly away." Poor Smythe,who indiscreetly steps into a restaurant ocr Sunday, with two reporters, calls for lunchi - bidi - theni-order what they please, and 'disks for a-fourth of a to, t cstore - his - irldeti powers, is,notskithstadding aduiission of his error,. abused • in almost every journal, dragged before his Presbytery to be rebuked, And finally called upon by his congregation CO • resign his Pastorate.

Society has thus' far •been shocked enough with bold innovations upon its ancient usages and time-honored principles by indorlen dent thinkers, as - they call themselves, and would-be refo i mess, s ho ignore God's law and trample upon it when it stands in the_ way of their miserable schemes. nigh time is it that all good citizens, remembering ..that public opinion consists of individual opinions, should repudiate-all-w-ho-violate-the-moral-principles on u hick society finds its only foundation and protection. • The enemies of tbe.great national out/01 . 340 ; -whieh-is-to-operi-tO-cotrimerceihd_civirizAtion the:magnificent country-between Lake Superior and ' Puget's Sound, succeeded yesterday in arresting the progress of the legislation now pending in Congress, and returning the bill to the Committee on Pacific Railroads, with a large number of proposed amendments. The conspiracy to defeat this gfeat public measure is thus, for the moment, enjoying the glories of a temporary stteeeSs. But it is gratifying to see, among all the medley of amendments that were. poured in upon the bill, no one ventures to hint at the idea that the gentlemen who have undertaken this grand enterprise_are the dishonest raccleis upon the public property that they have been alleged to be, in one or two other quarters. • There has been a persisterit effort to misre 7 - present the purport of the bill, over which there has been such a stubborn contest.. Its'true purpose is:to. grant..to. the_,_North, _Pacific . road - Coiripatifi Certain randi to compensate for deficiencies in the original grant, arising-- from- Government- sales - and — othef mules. The bill is fair and honest one,and the . fact that it is in the hands of fair and honest . . men may poSsibly tend to retard its progress. 5 1 Ach.

When Messrs. Jay Cooke & Co, under took the-gigantic task of negotiating thousands of millions of the national loan, the obstacles to be encountered, from rebels on one side and copperheads on the other, were enough to dis courage the stoutest heart and to bewilder the clearest brain. But neither brain nor bean failed. The great task was accomplished, and the country was saved. Compared with this work, the building of a trans-continental rail road, great as it is, is an almost insigniticain undertaking. The experience gained, and the public confidence securely won during the pt-rilous times of the war, make future enter prises comparatively easy, and the tempomnr delay caused by the factious combination which cat ried the House with it, yesterday. will make no ditlerence whatever in the ulti mate success of the North Pacific Railroad. The riotous demonstration in the suburbs of Paris on Tuesday night was merely the culmi nation of the intense popular excitement which has existed in the city since the agitation over the election began. Now that the feelings of the dangerous classes have found this gent, and the power of the government to preserVe the peace and vindicate the laws has been proved, we shall probably hear of no more outbreaks until some new cause rouses these excitable people to violent demonstration. In this instance, as in the case of the last outbreak, the conduct of the government was in every respect praise worthy. The troops were forbidden to fire upon the people ; and although in one instance this order was disobeyed, the barricades were carried and the rioters dispersed without the - use_ofipowdet.and bait.. _At the tinae_of the funetal of Victor Muir a threatened riot was opportune-rain,stoFtnndby a singular coincidence a heavy fair of rain during Tuesday evening seems to have dis persed a dangerous mob, more effectually than the military force could hiVe done; and to have made an intended demonstration impossible. THE KORTH PACIFIC RAILROAD. The concert which will be given under the direction of Pearce, at the Academy of Music, this evening, is intended to help one of the most important and deserving charities in this city, the Bedford Street Mission. Of the many and various wants of the Mission and of the noble character of its work among a de graded and outcast. people, it is unnecessary to speak at length at this time. It is. sufficient to say that the Mission is iu dire need of liberal pecuniary assistance for sanitary purposes as well as others. The brave and earnest mission ary is - struggling, as only a faithful and coura geous man can struggle, to accomplish his work of evangelization in these foul slums, and to contribute to the physical as well as the spirit ual needs of the poor creatures who are com mitted to his care. Ile is constantly em• barrassed by poverty, and by the want of en couragethent from' Lis fellow-citizens; and his burden is made heavier by these needs. We hope this conceit -will --supply _a portion of the funds that are required. The en ter tainment itself will be of the most attractive character, and this, together with the worthi ness of the object should insure the presence of a large audience.

According to the best process of reasoning i they had, n point of fact, disposed of more than two-thirds of the bill. Iron, steel, cot tons, &c., bad been passed upon, and better progress would be made with the balance of the articles on the list.
