A CANDIDATEM COURTESIES.
The letter in 'which Mr. I 'Buint annorm.

nation, is • a document :ol" such spirit and
phrasedlogy so
,to 'justif3F the:. most serious
imputations against his personal habits. No

of, the p °pieties of imposition as the nom
inee.of, a great i party for the second office
in the RePeillic, cOuld be guilty, of this rm.'
dignified.tirade of intemperate and vulnar
denuneiation, couched in the ' moat violent
langunte• and directed against the great
party ant:tits distinguished candidate in op
position. Never, b,etore, in the history of
politics, has a similar instance occurred; no
candidate of a National C •nvention was
ever •before known •to fotizet the dignified
reserve with which , „ such a nomination
properly clothes its recipient, by. degrading
his brief formal acceptance of the honor into
a reckless and violent stump speech, which
would. be considered rather• strong even
I for a poitular gathering at some township
.eross-roads...The •Democratic, party com
prehends amongits leaders Many gentlemen
of grace; culture and polished deference to
the courtesies of society, and who never suf.
fer political acrimony to degrade them into
blackguards. The Republican,reader, even
the least cognizant of the characteristics of
_public men, can nevertheless readily re.
`call -.`. the • -names :of • many such . gat
tlemen ' among his Democratic friends.
Not ; - only _. in the- Atlantic • States, but
throeghout the West, - the More ~Prornip
ent leaders of the old Deinocracy, no mat-
ter how decided in their political sentiments,
are known personally as gentlemen, in their
utterances public and private. We can im
agine the disgdst which such men must feel
when reading the distreditable effusion of
BLAIR'S drunken fury. It is a most re
pulsive illustration of the rapid degradation
of American politics, when such a black
guard, as this fellow shows himself to be, be
comes invested with such a high partizan
distinction. The only i, reasonable inter-
pretation that: the case admits of is, that
the charges which impeach him' as an in
temperate drinker are too well-founded, and
that, as his recent conversion to Democracy
inspired him with all the well-known bitter
ness of the renegade, so hid sudden and un
expected elevation in the councils of his
own friends has turned his head and plunged
him 'into still more intemperate excesses.
We congratulate the TILDREIN Bana.ows,
McCezrozzeszs, CASSES, LOWRYS, CLY
IIREtS, BLAC.FS, WOODWARDS ) Banns and
Nelms upon the decorous partizanship of
their candidate.
THE EASTERN' QUESTION.
Assurances lutve been given within . the
last few months, by the Cabinets of Parls„
Berlin and Vienna, that there will be no
'rupture of the peace of Europe powing
out of the re-organization of Germany. As
these pacific declarations are not attended
by a lessening! Military preparations, but,
rather by . an inhreag - iti thereof, gn the part of,
France, Prue* ar4d, 'Austria, Me '11444'
naturally arises, Why these gigantic , sx
mies and costly equipments are . main
tained? • ;Is it because of mutual jeslou,sles
and distrusts? Or, have ihese ;powers an
ulterior end, in view in the attainment of
which they are likely' to co-operate?

enunciates the Blair doctrine, has increased
the number of those wbo 'favor a recess in
stead of an adjournment.
Fuller accounts of the way in which the
Mississippi election was carried have, had
some effect, and have, served, powcer
fully to strengthen. the - sentiment ht favor
of the enactment of that clause in the Sen
ate Military bill.which gives arms to the re

South. Mesas). Morton, Wide, Wilson and
many others in the Senate believe that the
rebels will , overwhelm the authorities, and
overawe the black voters in every recon
-'strueted State, unless they are given means
for defence. In the House there' does nbt
appear, to be so strong a sentitnentin favor
of this, -- and the , newly installed' Southern
ers are divided in eentiment r -tkome, fearing
'the pcilitical - effeet and' the exasperating
feeling - which would .result from such 'a
. measure, all of.whidh make it rko*ible that
the sebject would necessitate'a good dial of
debate should the bill be passed. It is
likely, ofcourse, to provoke a veto:
General-Dyer has written a letter to the
Secretary off War; demanding a court mar
tial for an investigation Of the charges made
against him-by-the Select• Joint Committee
On Ordnance. He asks that the ComMittee
may be requestedlo' assistin the prepara
tion and prosecution-of the oharges;,and, if
possible, that the -court may be composed
of the General-inhChief and other officers of
the highest rank in the artily. • Thisletter
was submitted to the President in 'Cibiriet
meeting, and it' is said the Secretary , of War
has addressed a letter - to the President of
the Senate: requestibg that the Joint Com
mittee on Ordnance may be directed to
prepare charges against Gen. Dyer, with a
view to his trial by a-court martial, which
will be.convened as scion as practicable
after the charges shall hat% been furnished - .
If such letter,has been written, it bad not
reached Mr. Wade at noon yesterday:
Mr. Everts attended the Cabinet meeting
yesterday for,the first time. Great defer
ence was paid to him, but it is known that
his peculiar views will not be altogether
acceptable. He argued rather in favor of
the tis bill, and had such influence with
the President as to induce him to let the
bill become a law without his signature.
The Texas delegation' got but-little en
couragement from the Reconstruction Com

Mr. Hendricks' speech in Executive ses
sion, declaring that the Democracy and the
President would - not submi , , to• the election
of Grant and Colfax by , negro . votes, still
attracts attention, as it is believed 4o be
semi-official in its character. The Repub
licans think it decidedly revolutionary.
Col. Cooper has respectfully declined the
nomination tendered him of Commissioner
of Internal Revenue, and his name his been
withdrawn. If the candidate named- for:
that office is rejected - , Mn Johnson...will ap--
point Col. . Cooper to the ; ,office as soon: as
Congress adjourns. Lawyer Watts has,
friends here working tor him in the Senate,
and it is said he has a very fair chalice for
confirmation as Minister to Austria.
Mr. Sumner Isom:exited to the confirma
tion of candidates for the Russian, Austrian
and Mexican Miseions, but in the event' of
Mr. Hale's resignation of the mission to
Spain, Gen. Rosecrans would beconfirmed:
The Michigan Senators oppose Mr. Wells
for Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
and he will surely be rejected.
The Chinese treaty win be ratified, but
the Sandwich Islands reciprocity treaty
meets with a great deal of opposition. -
The Army Bill is certain of a veto, as it
gives General Grant authority to distribute
arms in_the South. •
The Question of l'arks.
Public parks are to the grown up pops.
hdlon what play-grounds are to :children—
the spots for recreation and enjoyment.
Wlso city governments will always pro
vide such grounds, beautified with verdure
and water, alluring by their refreshing
shades andbalmy breezes the denizens of
the hot and unventilated regions devoted to
business.
Pittsburgh, considered with its present
boundaries, is not well adapted for such
purposes, the ground suitable for business
(owing to the hilliness of much of it)-being
quite contracted; but there is a convenient
outlet to the citizens, where abundancoi of
ground is ready to their hand; and not
only that, but the people of Allegheny,
with a liberality unprecedented; are now
actually beautifying it for the Ilse and
pleasure of Plltslaurgh.,
I am a citizen of Allegheny, and was
greatly in favor, of consolidation, because
it would have been -for the benefit of both
cities . —Pittiburgh wanting wore,rootntadd

tation. Bnt, in spite of the limited means.
of the latter, she refused the opportunity
of union, whereby two-thirds_ or more of
the cost of her parkwOuld have to be , de-,
frayed by the former.ri tr - • '
The Councils of Pittsburgh havettppoint:
ed a Committee to secure a site for a city
park.. Now .thia 'ought not te be.
be an, utter waste of money.. There is no
earthly. reason for such prodigality. It '
would coat a 'million or two for anything
worthy of the newt,. and of the city, and'
when obtained -would not be as accessible
as the: Allegheny park. Don't let it be said
that •Pittsburgh Will spend hot millions
Simply because abe is unwilling to, have it
go abroad that Allegheny has a park and
she has none.. , ' - "
Allegheny needs.% no park—her Wide
streets and ,itnagnincent distances," like
all chimer that sort, are not much encuni
bored with business; in fact, as everybody
knows, it is a large town made, up, to a
great extent, of the homes of those who
have their butanes* in Pittsburgh, and who
return to their. ample and shady grodnds
after the labors of, the day are ended.
Let Pittsburgh be content.with the.pnzk
that Allegheny provides for her; will be
large enough for some time to come, and in
due time consolidation will be achieved, and
it will then become the Pittsburgh park.
