DISCOMFORTS OF POLITIC , ..L MAN
ACERB.
Most commonly when an Important elec
tion Is approaching, and i becomes neces
sary to select candidates for places of high
responsibility a large ' squad or chronic
grumblers begin to crP.rfie the political man
agers. , They exclahn, "Why do not the
leaders bring forwr.rd better timber, if they
want us to supprirt the nomination ? The
people are entitled to the best, and it is a
shame to put them off with second-rate or
worse." That sounds well; but, after all,
in lire majority of cases there is no reason in
these complaints;' as the growlerer would
comprehend if they should undertake the
task 'of party management The difficulty,
they would find to consist in getting the
moststitable men to take office.
Why will not such lawyers as MARSHALL,
Bnoors, KIRKPATRICK, and the like, take
a nomination for Congress ? Becatise they
are snaking money, which they need, in
the professional pursuit. They will not
break away, take the heart out of the best
part of their lives, go to Congress, and_
make a bare living at it, and return to pri
vate life in a few years, to find their, prac
tiee gone irrecoverably, their habits of pro
fessional application broken up, and them
selves and families altogether the worse for
engaging in the public service.
Why do such business mer as PHILLIPS,
McAtitur, HussEr, and the like, refuse to
be nominated for Congress ? They are rich;
and want to be richer; immersed in their
own concerns, and mean to be. The poll
tido= who have importuned a score of
such men in a single district' to accept a
Congressional nomination, think they have
acquitted themselves well in. the premises.
Occasionally, ab'eminent lawyer Is found,
who has "made his pile," or has resolved,
at all, hazards to embark on a career of
statesmanship, and he is ready to serve the
people; Commonly, however, they are
third or fifth ratetawyeil; when(' i'practiee
not worth anything, who me anxious to In
cur the chances of public life. This sort
conceive, because they have thumbed Black
stone and Chitty, without getting any thing
out of them, that they are fit for any public
place—in the General Assembly, in Con
gress, in the War or Navy or Treasury De
partment, in foreign missions, and in the
Presidency. They really constitute the po
litical aristocracy of this country; holding
most of the high offices, and yet fit for none;
carrying into public affairs the worst habits
of the profession - , and none of the better;
advocates everywhere, who take retainers
for any measure, yet claim to be dignified
statesmen; corrupt and t.orrupting the whole
realm of public administration.
So, too, once in a while a capable
_busi
ness man goes to Congress; alwaye worth'
a dozen talkers except of that highest grade
known as genuine orators, who are rarer
than meteors, and sent as illustrations of
what human nature, in its highest develop
ments, is really capable of. But these
business men, who* are content to expend
rare powers for the public good, instead of
for their own, are purely . exceptional.
Yet the grumblers stoutly maintain that
"There are able men enough, if they were
only diligently sought out." All we have
to say is, the natural-born leaders of a city,
district, or nation; do not have to be hunted
with lighted candles. They come to the
surface - and dominate by, virtue of their
own inherent qualities. Who sought out
VitaNT, SIDIR.VAN, THOMAS, SIXERIDAN
They worked their own way to the top, and
none could hinder them. Who piloted;
GREELY, WADE, CAMERON, COLFAX?
They were the architects of their own con
spicuity. The root of the matter was in
them; the qualities of leadership - and by,
internal propulsion they came into the
forikordained sphere. True, the poet says:
••Full tunny • rose fa born to blush unseen
MO waste its fragrance on the desert air."
That may be so much the worse for the
rose; but we see no help for it. Precisely
so with men. Ir they were for ordained to
private station, they may as well make the
best of it; for there is no sorcery that can
:avail them. A person cannot be wrenched
out of natural insignificance and be trans
formed into an acknowledged and suc
cessful leader of men. Hundreds of men
may fancy they are fit for Congress; partial
friends may. concur In that flattering self.
judgment; but if they disclose no qualities
of leadership that strike the popular appre
hension and •compel spontaneous recogni
tion, they had better be content with their
obscurity, no matter how galling it tray be.
The fact is that public life, honestly fol
lowed, does not pay, either in money <or
honor, as well as' private callings, but are
altogether more precarious. Ordinarily, as
soon as a public man has attained a &mill;
arity with his duties, so as to make their
performance easy to himself and advanta
geous to his constituents, he; is thrust aside,:
throtigh popular fickleness. This is atiother
potent reason that constrains men 'of
intuit powers, recognized as natural leaders,
to refuse the function:*
Hence, we conclude that the political
managers are often more sinned against
than sinning. They would do better than
they do, in selecting candidates, .if they
were free to pick, and the public was not so
volatile in likett;Od

REPETRUcAn" LE.11:1=811Ip.
There is much force in the suggestion of
a looker-on upem recent scenes at Washing
ton, who predicted three weeks ago that the
jealousies, which embittered the old-time
leaders of the Republican-perty against the
rising influence of its younger and more
active men, not only afforded the real expla
nation of the manifest proclivities of the
former class to withhold their concurrence in
the practical counsels which inipired the ma.,
jority of the House, but would be likely to
endanger the final success of the Pending
impeachment. Herein was unquestidnably
to be seen an active, leading cause 'of the
late defection of. certain Senators from a
plain duty recommended by all the political
considerations which had been potent with
them for a life-time, sustained by s re
gard for their own personal and official con.
sistency, and positively dealanded by
the clearest instructions of patriotism.. That 1
great measure was'a critically momentons
one in its conduct and issue. It ,was juit
ly comprehended as being an unprecedented
strain upon the coristitiationalpowers which,
for eighty years since their first creation,
had slept in abeyance. It ws's not forgot
ten that the framersof the gaiernment, and
p
all publicists of whatever p y since, had
regarded the power of im ent of a l oina
President of the United S tes
~ as , only
a shadowy concession to a theery, a Philo.
sophiag abstraction, never, to tie practically
realized'as the necessary rem y for any
perilous contingency likely too arise, but
logically rounding up the symmetry of a
system, and intended, so far as it could work
any positive good, to do it rather in the
way of prevention than punishinent. It
was _recognized as an ultimate \ resort only
-for the most desperate case. Precisely that
case was presented when the Executive dis
puted the law-making power, and assumed a
prerogative of disobedieneewinch, if acqul.
esced in, was fatal to the proper theory of
oar government.
A very large majority of the nation de
manded the application of the extreme rem
edy, as the only One which could reach and
remove the cause of so much danger. The
Senate itself indicated the necessity for that
application. The House accepted the duty
thus cast upon it. The offender had no
apologists; there was no party to defend
him. The great political body in opposition
to the Republicans made haste to declare
that it had no part with the offending mag
istrate, disclaiming any responsibility for
his misconduct and avowing itself content
with his prospective deposition from of
fice. Nevertheless, it freely declared its
intention to improve for it own partizan
ends any contingency that proceedings in
Impeachment might' develope. - Yet the Re.
publican party, having a clear constitutional
majority in both houses of Congress, and
supported by the consenting Judgment of a
popular preponderance, have failed to carry
through a measure which both houses were
equally committed to and which Was the
necessary logical sequence of the political
urinciples professed and supported by Re
publican Senators and Representatives
Four Senators, eachof them heretofore
highly regarded as influential and leading
thli
k cio
Republicans, are responsible for - de
feat.' We make no account of the two ( so
and Van Winkle) whose votes the our
found it requisite to secure to make their
defection fatal to the measure. The aim'.
tional votes were needed, and these two
men„ with Fowmat, were found' the melt
readily procurable. They were used as 1
tools, and as such may be dismissed from
any consideration of the causes for the re
eetit disappointment. Nor is it worth whlle
to waste words upon FOWLER, who, la or
out of the - Republican tanks, has had I no
prominent and influential position. . But
Messrs. l'utrunnLi, FEIMENDEN, lIE.N.
;mallow and GILMER have always been rec.- I
ognized as Republican leaders, prominimi
in public life at the capital, and of great in.
fluence with our political frisnds in their re
spective States. Yet it had 'been evident to
themselves, as well as . to the general ob
server, that for some time put their Wk.
mace has been waning. Younger and morn
active men have come forward to dispute
with them the leadership. Such men as
BLAINE, FATUPESWOIZTII, JUDD, WASH-
IMUNE, DRAKE and WILSON have become
more faithfully the exponents of vigorous
and effective Republican sentiment in their
ovin'States, while, at the Capital, the coun
sels of the party or three past yetirs have
been guided by these, representatives, rein
forced by Colmar, BINOIIAM, BouTwirix,
WiLtasus, Remit and other men of that
stimp, even including ElTevsse whose ad:
vaned years Rip still illuminated by all, the
fire and enthusiasm of youth. <
For three yeas, the progressive develop
ments of the Republican policy have been
initiated and conducted by the men whom
we specify, and the large class of representa
tives who have sympathized 'with them.
They have been radical ; that is to say, they
have been sincere in their political faith;
and thorough in the action which it de-
!winded. It is this class or nu n. seconded
by WILLIAMS. Suwiran, Mon Ton; Cu-
BILON and a few others in the Senate, with
whom all the leading measures of the past
three years have originated and by whom
all the hard work has been done. The Sen
ators who,;. the other day, stultified them-
selves In Voting fQT the I'resident's acquit-
tal, have as unifonnly, for the same period,
Peen a drag upon the - tudicallim :which is
the essence of our party, foriyor interposing
their captious criticisms; or ailleu; obeli-

'IFTEENTH PRESIDENT
THE
We ann .unce this morning the death of
a distinguished citizen and native of Penn
sylvania— AXES BUCHANAN, who was the
XVth PreOdent of thetrnited States, born
in Fmnklin.county, April 22d, 1791, died
Jane Ist, at his residence near Lancaster.
He had been for some months an invalid,
but, latterly, his friends had hoped that he
might regain as much health as is naturally
I:,ar
Permitted seventy-seven yearsof age.
These -ho a were not realized; he experi
enced a re apse, sank rapidly; and passed
away at an ly hour yesterday morning,
retaining co sciousness 'to almost his latest
moments. - .
The deceased was during a long and con
picuous, career actively and influentially
identified with, the political events and the
public interests of his State and of the na
tion. Called to the bar in his 22d year, he
speedily acquired reputation, and in his
24th year entered upon public life as a mem
ber of the State' Legislature. In 1820 he
was chogOn a 'Representative in Congress,
remaining therein' ten years. In _lBBl, he
was sent by President JACKSON as Minister
to Russia, and negotiated an important
commercial treaty- with that power. In
1838, returning home, he was elected to the
United States Senate, serving twelve years.
In 1845 .he became Secretary:.: of State ,
under Mr. PoLx, • and negotiated a set
tlement of the Oregon boundary ques
tion, having aided in. its consummation by
the advice of the Senate. ' Retiring from
the Cabinet in 1849 he remained in private
life until appointed by President PIERCE in
1853 Mi l t . iister to England, in which capacity
qis participation in the celebrated Ostend
Conference meeting of our Ministers at Ea r
ropean Courts to discus& the propriety of the
proposed acquisition of - Cuba,—was the
most prominent event of his mission. Re
turning home in 1856, he was selected as
the. Democratic candidate for the Presidency.
His election, the four-years of his adminis-
tmtion and his retirement at its end from
public life, are matters familiarly in the
memory of our readers. ,
A Federalist in the outset of his political
career, he became a Democrat of the strict.
est Sect, and lived long enough to witness
the complete final triumph of the Federal
ism which he had labored for fifty years to
overthrow. More consistent in another re
spect, he survived to behold the absolute
and perpetual extinguishment of the institu
tion of slavery which he had from his earli.
est years defended as an essential element in
our political system. Uniformly '
,a chamoi
on of the peculiar political privileges enjoy
ed by the Southern States, and as uniformly,
and - with even more ability and zeal,
an opponent of the Northern agita
tion of the high question of Liberty
for all men, he looked out from the retire
ment of age to behold the sectionalism which
he had denounced at the North, arraying
itself at the South in arms against the Un
ion, and at last conquered into obedience,
its special privileges obliteiated, and that
Northern agitation which he had deplored
ripening into the Constitutional mastery of
the destinies:of the Republic. Entering upon
the Chief Magistracy in 1857, at a period of
more than ordinary political repose
-Kansas furnishing the only vexed ques
tions of our politics—he found the
country quiet, prosperous and as firmly
united as the essential' contradietions then
embodied in its Constitution could admit.
He retired at the end of four years after
from a great trust which he had so admin
istered as to bring the Republic' to the ut
most verge of a fatal ruin. As politician
and statesman ho had, in all his , public ca
' reer, aimed at the pacification or sectional
questions in our domestic politics,
and he lived to witness, under his
own Executive administration, the, inevita:
ble culmination of that policy which he had
denounced, in the most sanguinary and
critical rebellion ever known to a civilized
people. And the pacification which he had
desired came at last, not as the fruits of his
policy, but in spite of it, the naturally ma
tured and victorious issue of the Goo-given
instincts of a free people.
. Charged by his country with foreign
trusts, he was moderately suzessful, and
would have been remembered history as
a fortunate diplomatist rather an as a great
statesman. , , With; the
~ brief intervals of
fi
such emplOYmente abroad, h a career of
nearly fifty years in our dome tic politics,-
however, it may have seemed a times to be
marked by temporary p triumphs,
will be recorded in the his ry of the
Republic, as, a career , of mis , es, and of
failures, crowned finally - by t e most fatal
proof of his incapacity to cern rehend and
be faithful to the dominant pint of our
i
constitutions. How fatal thos proofs were
neaf to becoming, not only t his .reputa- .
tionis a Chief Magistrate, but , the'riation.-
al honor, to the life of tliq Union, to
the continued existence of the. Re-,
public - itself, we do - not ' deem 'it
needful to specify now. The faultsof that
system of political ideas of which Mr. Bo-
CHANAN was peculiarly an exponent have
- beenatoned for at afearfid cost of blood• and
suffering.
We have spoken of Mr..
,Bncnamm as a
public man. ;'There is little else It) be .sati

behind him, and It:11 only as "a public` Man,

POLITICAL STATUff!, OF :THE BOLT.,
• niV- 11 Wf
tWe rui trilibeify to eangrittulate out Re,
publiamhieuds that the Senate is still un
der the control of a working majority of
patriotic and consistent members, who re.
main faithfhl to.the great interests entrust•
ed to them. The ordinary legislation and
ME
Executive busineis of.the session 3till, as
heretofore, be • disposed of by a majority
which can neither be bribed nor deceived.
The public confilence in the integrity and
fidelity of this reliable Republican m a jority
is not abated by their indignant refusal, a
day'or two since, to confer, in the • private
deliberations of a caucus, with the six recre
ants who had the assurance to present them
selves at its meeting. Our Senators very
properly declined lo be 'irritated into any
formal expression of disgust at this imperti
nence, but quietly adjourned at once leav
ing TRUMBULL& Co. to deliberate by them
selves. If these latter gentlemen are sin
cere in their averments that they still hold
to the Republican faith, and have
the interests of the party at heart, they
should be content to accept the undeniable
fact that, for the present at least, yet further
self-sacrifice will become them, l and they
will forbear to intrude where they are not
wanted. Let them remember that the corn
try is still sore from their treachery, and
that a decent regard for _the - sensitiveness
which they must be aware of will not be in
compatible with their own protestations of
injured innocence, or with a more dignified
abstinence from such intrusions. - In short,
these Senators, whom the public sense has
impeached, understand precisely the extent
of the turpitude of which they are every
where accused, and, if conscious of their
own innocence, would naturally be im
pelled by an honest indignation to forbear
partiCipation in , strictly partizan matters,
until time and enquiry shall have worked
their vindication. It strikes us that some
thing like this would accord with the in
stinctive impulses of honorable Men. Nor
would either the public business, or the in
terests of the Republican party, suffer
thereby.
WE SHOULD place but little confidence in
the rumor which ascribes to Chief Justice
CHASE, in the further postponement of the
trial of JEFFERSON DAVIS, a desire to
avoid an unpleasant complication to the
damage of his Presidential asliirations, if it
were not for his recent and peculiar record.
It is quite possible that in procuring the post
ponement of the trial the Chief Justice was
not influenced by any personal motive of
this discreditable character, but it is equally
possible that a Judge who has made such
a personal record as he has -hi the
impeachment trial would not stop at , any
improprieties less grave. No one denies
that he is a candidate for the Presidency;
that he desires the Democratic nomination;
that there is a strong interest in that paity
in his favor; that hisambition in that direc-'
tion has led him already to degrade his own
official dignity - and to the loss of the national
respect It is not long since he declared to
a friend in Washington--and it was pend
ing the trial of -Mr. Jonicsox—that "he would
rather be President one month than Chief
Justice for a life-time." In the light of such
declarations and of his recent record, we
find little difficulty in believing that he
would go to any length in making his pres
ent office subservient to his ambition for the
other. And a Judge who is capable of this
needs only the opportunity and the tempta
tion to become a Jeffreys for the blood of
the innocent, or a Bacon for the plunder of
suitors.
