This will'prove the end of wide gauge

ten per cent. more to stock a wide road than
a narrow, and ten per cent. more to ruh one

PITTSBUItOR GAZETTE : MONDAY; JULY 13; 1868
.....THAT
The Wiendikof Mr• Bunn, " 4 : 2 7 . wor th r=
school teacher, who aspires-to something
beyoud the humble position of the , Class-.
room, for which, we dare say, he is emi
uontly.qualifled, have been working zeal
ously s ' g the past six weeks in obtain
ing at • tures to a requisition upon
him to become the "Independent Working
men's and Citizens' candidate for Con,
greaa." The document, so long promised"
and about which much was said to mislead
Republicans as to the numerical strength and
political standing of its signers, watspread
before the public yesterday in the columns of
the Sunday Leader. We were surprised at
its weakness. Only same one hundred and
eighty names were appended, although the,
customary gag—"and fifteen hundred oth
ers"—vras pinned to the-tail -end of the re
qpisition., Having leisure we made a care
fat analysis of the names appended, and
found not a dozen which will carry any
weight with them in this commdnity, and
the overwhelming preponderance of Demo
cratic names developed fin no unmistake
able manner the strength, and popularity of
the gallant IT - math in the rinks of his own
parry. Ostensibly the call emanates from
the workingmen, but there is to be observed
a woful dbficiency of namesbelonging to the
leading and intelligent citizens who have
hitherto been identified with the cause of •
labor reform. Workingmen are no longer
to be duped into the support of - political
tricksters who sympathize and affiliate with
them only so far as to secure place and po
sition, and besides, the elms of men to
which Mr. DIRTY belongs cannot be reck
oned in the laboring element any more, if
as much, as the editors: of newspa
pers, lawyers, doctors, manufacturers
and merchants. The time.; ,is past for
such political trickery. ' The - work
ingmen have found their way back into
the old lines, and instead of setting prem
selves up as a distinct organization will
make their influence all the more powerful
by cooperating withand helping to make
up the ranks of the two greakpolitical par
ties..
Mr. Braerr,accepts the "invitation," and
with. due dignity proceeds: to inform his one
hundred and eighty friends and, "fifteen
hundred others," of his viewd on the na
tional debt, the army and navy, public
litids and other leading questions, adopting
the ideas of Gen. Sam. Camtir and filling in
with "taking talk" intended for the work
ingmen alone.
It is highly probable •that the. Democrats
will unite on Mr. BEATY and place him in
nomination against Gen. NEOLZY, for
whose defeat . they world move mountains,
as his known patriotism and fidelity to Re
publican principles render him especially
obnoxious to that class of our citizens. How
the slate may . be made up is of little mo
ment, as no combination or species of sharp
political trickery can prevent the Republi
can party from sending. General NEOLEY to
Congress,and that, too, by an overwhelin-
Ing majority.
Coicscr.varisst is having a rough time in
England, but acts like itself in shutting its
eyes and refusing to see the inevitable end
of the pending controversy respecting the
disestablishment of the Irish Church.
Of course, the real dispute lies far back
of that question, involving it ohly as it does
many others, and giving it conspicuity
simply becauge in the progress of the gene
ral discussion the time`has arrived to begin
an actual movement against the principle of
establishing religion by law. Under such
circumstances it could not be otherwisethan
that the doomed system should be assaulted
where it was most indefensible. • Whoever
concludes it will not be attacked elsewhere
generalizes from do small and ill-assorted a
collection of facts as to entitle his judg
ment to no weight whatever. They who
have carefully observed the current of
English thoughts, during the last quarter
of a century, as disclosed in monthlies and
quoterlies of the higher grade, and in books
of the more recondite sorts, have no difficul
ty in determining whence the assault upon
the Irist4horch comes, what it means and
portends, with what auxiliary movements
it stands related, and what the upshot of the
whole will be. . •
The motions of a snake'begin with the
head. It is precisely so with human soci
ety. The discussion and application
,of
Principles begin at the Atm,. with a limited
class of select and powerful thinkers. The
problems 4 ,they deal.with to-day, will be the
topics uppermost,. with the messes ten, or
'twenty years 'hence., It is• always so, and
by virtue of. a law never to be successfully
resisted; the' head is pre-ordaines l to govern
all other. members.
Monarchy received its death-wound in
England long ago, though It line* it not,.
because It took the sentiment of federal loy
alty to particular familiesklotig: while' to
wear out. Eveh yet iris not entirely
bx
tinct. , It has still considerable , vitality
among the •peasantry. But, just in Propor
tion as . that sentiment is weakened,. the life
of monarchy dezays.. England really raised
froth under . knightly rule,.in all ~ bot' the
name, yeFs ago. The power of Parlia
ment is greater than that of the queen ; but
that is organized bligarchictdlY ; 'not demo
erotically. It cannot long remain so// and
that is what thepreseth Popidar ino4el4olltt
watched with deepest solicitude from this
side of the Atlantic, really . signifies.
The chief props .of monarchy throughout-,
christendorn are the church establishments,
and they must;be prostrated: When they
shall be no more, all the rest will be corn
panttively easy.. -

It se,oms probable that these managers bad
and have no expectation of carrying •the
"elation.= They Ave,"feel and acicnowledgo
that all the important issues of the lag , tWeu-
ty years are decided irrev ocably against the
-Democratic party, and 4t this could not
, be without entailing upon it a degree of
popular odium that makes the chances
hopeless ior some time to come.
80 , circumstanced their aim appears to
have been to choose such candidates and
avow such doctrines as would beat tend to
keep the party together until fresli'questions
shall arise of such magnitude as to cast ex
isting ones into the background, and, enable
the Democrats to take a new start.
In addition to this advantage the policy
of the managers has another. It affords
them an opportunity for maintaining their
local organizations, which a different meth
od of treatment would
-not have kin them.
,
Mn. HEART ' BEICHOUR, the father of the
present Democratic csadidite for [President,
was >for some years a Canal; a Commissioner
of the State of New York. About 1836,
while holding that office, he committed sui
cide, in the' basement of his dwelling at
titica---the same now occupied by his eMi
neht son—by shooting himself with a pistol.
Immediately the impression obtained cur
rency that his fidUcial accounts were in an
t l m
unsatisfactory condition ;in n words,
tht4, he was a' defaulter. An xtubination
showed hfs Offfeliil 'accounts to correct in
every partimilai, l and his priVa affairs to be
altogether prosperous. He fell by his own
-
hand, a victim of an overtax brain, as
many another man did before and has
since. 1 '
This, we think, is theonly eof insan
ity in the family. Aeither HORA!rIO, nor
his . brother, Joint F., nor his two sisters,
(the youngest of whom is the wife of die
Hon. Roscos. -Colixtaxa, a R3publicen
Member of the United States Senate,) have
given the slightest indications of inheriting
the malady. The story to that effect, which
has obtained currency, was coined by a
reckless Bohemian, connected with a West
ern journal.
MR. 'HORATIO SEYMOUR'S career, as a 1
public man; affords a striking verification of
the truth of what Lord CHESTERFIELD said
to his son, Pamir STADROPE—"Eloquence
and good breeding alone, with an exceeding
small degree of parts and knowledge, will
carry a man a great way." :4 11is Lordship
proceeded to show why this was so—" The
elegancy of the style, and the turns of the
periods, make the chief impression on hear
ers: Give them but one or two round and
harmonious periods in a speech, which they
will retain and repeat, and they will go
home as well satisfied as people do from an
opera, humming all the way one or two fa
vOritetunes that have struck their ears and
are most easily caught. Moat people have
ears, but few have judgments; tickle their
ears, and depenil upon ityou will catch their
judgments, such as they are." •
Mr. Seviaoun has no touch or quality of
greatness in him. Of comely presence,
graceful education, polished manners, a flu
ent delivery, and, unexceptionable morals,
he has made his way, not , by force of under
standing, or imagination,. or reason, but by
a pleasing address and an unfailing plausi
bility.
A CONSIDERABLE body of voters com
monly remain undecided to which party
they will attach themselves until a Presiden
tial canvass is fairly opened by the selection
of candidates and the declaration of princi
plea. Frequently this class is very large.
In that contingency, if they ultimately di
vide about equally, the result is involved in
doubt'up to the 110 moment; if they take
one direction, with oomparative unanimity,
their action settles the issue in advance.
If any uncertainty had rested, from the
beginning, upon the prospects of OaltaiT
and Col,Fax--which we, d 6 not believe—
it would have been removed by` "the move 4
meat among the doubtfal voters which has
been witnessed during the last few days.
They show distinct signs of going, almost
in a body, for the Chicago nominees.
Doubtless the Democratic leaders note • tkis
I march and understand what it portends.
RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.
Bishop Thomson, in an address to the
candidates for ordination, at the late session
of the East Maine Conference, said : Be
ware of any imprudence in your intercourse
with families. We are admitted at all hours
with a.iiiblime confidence. Let it be re

guilty of impurity is guilty of a conglomer

DrAlt COLONEL:---111 reply to your in
quiries, I beg leafe to say . that I leave to
,
you to determine, on consultation with my
friends from . Missouri; whether my name
shall be presented to the Democratic con
vention, and to submit the following''
as
what I consider the real and only issue in
this contest:
The reconstruction policy of the Radicals'
will be complete before the next election;
the States:so long excluded will bave been
admitted; negro suffrage established, :end
carthagaers installedintheir seats in both
brapenches of Congress. • There is no possi
bility of changing the political character of
the Senate, even if the Democrats should
elect their President and a majority of the
popular branch of Congress. We cannot,
therefore, - undo the Radical plan of reoan
struttion by 'CongrOisional action; the Sen
ate will cmitinne a-bar to its repeal. Must
welsubmit to It ?. How can we overthrow. ?
It can only be overthrown by the 'authority
of the .Executive, who is sworn to mantain

session of the Legislature. The following
is a letter from him on the subject!:
PENNSYLVANIA EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,HARRISBURG PA. July 11th, 1868.—Hon.
L. D. Shoemaker, Wilkesbarre, ra.:—Dear
Sir : Your letter of the 7th instant, and
numerous others on the same sill:Pet, are' .
duly received, some suggesting and others
opposing an extra session of the! Legisla- t ,
tare, in consequence of the recent declsion
of the Supreme Court against the!; constitu
tionality of the Registry Law. I very
much regret that decision, annulling an
act affecting the purity of ; the ballot-be*,
which I regard above all price; but after a
most careful examination of the resons.
for and against the proposed action, I feel
constrained to decline calling ail, extra ses
sion. The election laws remain substan
tinily the same as for years past,,Und inmy
judgment the facts do not present-such an
extraordinary occasion as is contemplate* '
by the Constitution. Truly ydare,
