Airectly with the underlying vital issues. It
was no longer a skirmish upon_the exterior

of the position. Evidently, the debate of
Friday last, and its result;a majority of fif,

tendencies and the strength of. Democratic

Royal prerogative, ,Protestant supremacy,

deeper religious feeling of the Nation—all
have been appealed to, and the result is an
other defeat. The Liberal majority •is only
reduced from sixty-slit to fitly-four, and

THERE is no doubt that a corrupt bargain

Who bartered their oaths, their patriotism

the consideration in hand, and the low cun

successful in baffling the investigation now

plated the defeat of Senator WADE as a can
didate at Chicago, their cabal has also proved
successful. But we have good , cause to re
joice, that the considerations for this in
famous treachery hive failed in all other re
spects. The Chief Justice, who would have
ensured his own elevation to the Presidency,
has only achieved the extinguishment of all
his hopes forever. One week ago, we declared
that he would only hereafter be "remembered

and events, which these momentous times are
rapidly evolving, have already marked the
accuracy of the prediction. Mr. CHASE has

vAitIEIPRESEIMITIWI , MiCARATION-A1531.14
COXITJENTIONS
For many years after the formation of
the government of the Triited §tSteso
tional Conventions for the nomination' of
.eandideltei_for President-Mad Vice Preaident
were not inyented.. Each. of, the political
parties devolved that duty upon its members
of the Senate and House of Representativies.
After a time these congressional Caucu.sses
fell into disrepute. Not that they resulted
in the nomination of incompetent and in-
- ferior-men•forthohighest places of political i
trust:;_' Bo far lotherivisei it is not - disimted
that, throughout the period covered by the
use of that instrumentality the,can 'dates
presented to the people were of much ter
average excellenee i than those broug t for-
Wird since the introduction of the e isting
system. But the politicians became j ous
of the additional ;anthprity confe on
Congressmen, and It WAS resolved to take
from them the privilege o(nominating Pres
idential candidates. To His end the Na
tional ConventiOn was devised.
This body was constituted on the plan of
a Joint meeting of the two Houses of Con- .
The . rePieientailini in it was inade
equal to that of the Senate and House
combined, as the most equitable arrange
ment possible. The Senatorial delegates
Were elected by State Conventions; the Dis
trict delegates' by local 'conferences. Both
these clinks of delegates were, held amena
ble to instructions by the power respectively
appointing theni, anti by no other. This
was a system of genuine representation;
equitable, uniforni, consistent, harMOnious,
and easily understood.
Though it comported exactly with, the
genius of the government, scheming poli
ticians,bemthe dissatisfied with it.. Hence,
they devised the scheme of having the State
Conventions appoint the District delegates;
which is analogous to having the members',
of Congress of will State chosen-. by the
Legislature thereof; With` this poivir , of
appointinent, was logically given the power
Of initritctien; for, by this system, ili&Dis
triet delegates no longer represented dis
trict , constituencies, but were deputies of
the State ConVention, and bound to do its
will. This was a wide and mischievous
'departure from the idea of keeping the au
thority as near as possible to the people.
But, it turned out that Delegates appoint,
ed in this way, frequently had so much of
the instinct of republi e an loyalty that, they
would carry out the Wishes of the peOple
of their yespective districts, rather than the
4 -" 4 --=Aa of the State Convention. To pre- '
ve n t ti all 2 ; ll 4!=<litiation the managing pol
iticians resorted teo...4llis T scheme. Upon
the asSembling of a'PartraTrll-11<aocation
they insisted upon the adoption of a rule; -
whereby the majority •was authorized to
vote for the minority as well as for thimi
selves. If tbe minority resisted ; they were
threatened-with expulsion.
Upon the assembling-of, the Pennsylvania
delegation at Chicago, last week. this ride
was adopted;
.together with a supplement
providing that any member of the minority
who refused to acquiesce in having the ma
jority vote for him, and should appeal to the
Convention for the vindication of his rights,
should be expelled. This was robbing the
minority delegates, and then gagging them
so that they might not make complaint.
The rules adopted for the, government of
the National Convyclon knocked this in
famous arrangement on the' bead. Those
rules provided that -the Chairman of each
delegation should give in .the vote as the
individual members expressed their prefer
ence, and not otherwise. This was honest,
and in accordance with the nature and just
use of the National Convention.' Of course,
the self-constituted managers a the Penn
sylvania delegation bad r to sucennrh..
The law of National Conventhini, so' far.
as relates to the Republican party, may now,
be taken- as settled. We cannot- refrain
from remarking, moreover, that the law is
decided to be as the GAzkrrE has steadity
maintained it was. If not a few of our po
litical friends in this State have thought us
needlessly sensitive and, perhatts, caPtious,
the National Convention adjuidged the point
we raised intrinsic, if not vital, and, coin
cided with . its' in its`solittion.
It is easy to see how the plan of voting
which we condemn, and the enjoined si
lence, which we despise, might enablellialf a
dozen :adroi t and' niniiinciPled - 1 -31tititigers
to barter the weight and authority of a dele
gation in the political shambles, ..ftiF4hfir

gation in the . recent N:ational - Cementistn
not only auertedukiir righ,te j butso asserted
them as to obtain a 'judgment in their favor
from the highest tribunal 16f - the' Republigin
party.
This decision is not only just in itself,
but must tend, if anything can, to allay that
bitterness of faction which dishonors the
Republican party of this Commonwealth,
and ,puts its continued success in peril.
Shmill there not be - a truce to this Mischievous .

The sensation was decided, and loWa, eager

to begin the break. Its chairnian shouted
that lowa withdrew the votes from Fenton,
and cast its ftill vote solid for Colfax. An
instant before the cheers had fairly begun;
McLure was up: "Pennsylvania asks'to
change her vote. She casts her 52 voted
solid for Schtiyler Colfax." The work was
done. What followed was a mere- scramble
for precedence in the race for changing off
to Colfax. The Indianians , cheered till

flat ever a magnanimous foe; and
n, s more anxious than he that the
b oody, hateful past should be speedily ob

no other American in whom all interests ,
and.all sections cherish so profound a' trust
as in. Ulysses S. Grind. ' Hence, the stength

Our candidate for Vice President has
proved as invincible in the area of intellec
tual struggle for Liberty and Loyalty as our
more illustrious candidate for President
amid the stein alarums of war.
Messrs. Grout and Colfax are both in the
prime of their manly vigor, and in the full
est maturity of their - powers. That our too
long distracted country brdestined, under
their auspices, to aclileve a speedrand com

and more of its former fmtenuty, we will
not clierish a doubt.
The Philadelphia North American says
The republic has successively raised Wash
ington, Jackson, Harrison, Taylor and
Pierce to the Presidential office for militaly
services, and not one of them has done in
that position any act calculated to render
despotism even probable. It refused to ele
vate Scott to the same position, just as it
had rejected Clay, a civilian;. so that the
failure of the soldier came from no popular
doubt as to the safety of electing military
men. It is only in cases where great merits
of a peculiar character are recognized, or
where statesmanship and soldierly science
aro combined in the same person, that the
nation seems to take delight in honoring its
chieftdins.' Grant is of the race of Ameri
can commanders whose prudence and mod
esty in peace commend them to the admira
tion of the people.
The Philadelphia Press says"; More than
any other leading man in the country per
haps, Mr. Colfax is a true and accurate re
presentative of the'average American citizen
a—honest, intelligent, law-loving, and believ
ing with a firm faith in the institutions and
government which has made us the envy of
nations. Quiet; modest, but determined and
true; beyond suspicion of comprise or bar
gain, he is emphatically the representative
product of obr new civilization.
Beyond his other qualifications, induStrial
Pennsylvania wlll - reicielidier with pleasure
that Mr. Colfax stands pledged to protection

Rio JANEIRO advices represent that the
American latister, Mr. Webb, urges Brazil
and the other belligerent' powers to accept
the mediation of the United States in their
quarrel with Paraguay, and it is said he has
told the . Emperor of Brazil that unless the
war is soon ended the Govermnent of the
United States will intervene to prevent
further bloodshed. Webb had sent linpor
tent dispatches by the United States steamer
Wasp to Mr. WaShburne, the United States
Minister to Paraguay. .
