IEIA?iDS OFF.
The repeal of the Tenure-of-011km Law is
clot contemplated-by the majority, in either
'the present Congress, or , the one which
shall succeed it. Thchaiige in Adminis
trations will only illuate the difference,
between an Executive who. will beartily
'support and faithfully comply' with the ex
isting legislation and a- President whose
single aim, for three years past, seems to
hive sought only methods for evading and
opposing , the will of the People. Had
GRANT been our President instead of Jourt
ion, this law might never have been enact
ed, since the need.forit would not have been
• found to be imperative. But our experience
will yet satisfy - us that the measure, which
originated in necessities of one sort, may
very wisely be preserved to meet a widely
oifferertt situation. Its continuance will
ens re to President 011A , XT that protection
--which no Executive could more hesztily
.desiretinst the importunities of ii vast
army of piece-hunter& whose advance col
umns are alr4dy demonstrating upon the
Capitol. The haroniousemeurrence of the
President and 13ens will speedily ensure,
in all the subordinate otilT of the govern
ment, personal integrity; and ample capaci
ty, with an unimpeachable antnautpected
fidelity, past, present and future,loN.Hepub
titan principiar. Herein, the provisions of
the Tenure Law will be found entirely com
patible with the most discreet as well as the
most effective reform of the public service in
snits department& Beyond that, the ope
rations of the Law allt: be equally of ben
efit, in repressing that indiscriminate war
fare of the "outs" upon the "Ins," which .
never knows a truce, continuing through
each Presidential tam.
The Tenure-of-Office Law will not be
found to stand at all in the way of sOnring
a thoroughly and completely Republican
administration of affairs, in all offices, fMm
**highest to th 9 lowest, while it will con
tribute very effectively in enabling us , to re
tain all the officers who are worth keeping.
Whatever may have been aggressive in the
measure is to be become obsolete; while its
more substantial merits will be still more
completely vindicated by future experience.

Tim Steubenville Herald prints an inter
esting reminiscence of events which, at the
date of their occurrence in 1861; deeply con
cerned the people of Pittsburgh. Speaking
of the meeting held to resist the removal of
munitions of war from our arsenal at that
time, and of ceeretary °MINTON'S action
thereon, the Herald says :
At this meeting, if we remember cor
rectly, the , venerable Judge Wilkins, a
Democrat and school-mate of President
Buchanan, presided. Other prominent
'Democrats participated, taking an active
Part, Judges Shaffer; , Shannon, &c. The
resolutions, taking exceptions to the re
moval of cannon' and small arms South,
under the exigencies of the hour, wet e pre
pared and read by Hon. Thomas Williams,
and passed by the unanimous voice of the
people. and forwarded to the President
through Secretary Stanton, who, on reading
the resolutions to the President, clinched
the same, by the emphatic words—" Mr.
Buchanan, you have traitors in your Cali.
net!" A fact which Mr. Stanton informed
the editor of this paper the President never
fully realized before,
and was so shocked
that he threw up his hands as an indication
of surprise and alarm. ' •

Brooks is an obstinate New England Con

gamblers and ciphers. Sunset Cox is an
audacious example of the beneficence of
carpet-bagging. He found his school of
politics declining in Ohio, and he game
somely took up his iwallet and.' started for
New York. He has made money sirice he
left Congress, and in the short space ofthree
years has succeeded in reaching his political
aspirations also. This latter implies no en:
ergy, having bon necessary merely to
purchase, or take as a gift, the nomination
from Mr. Pete Sweeney and Bill Tweed, or

by such a constituency, and lose somewhat
of thatancient l independenee which made
him a nettle to "Gentleman, George" Pen

against the proposition of the amendment,

were more than brilliant. His speech

A Washington despatch of the lathsays
—"lt is generally understood here that
ere has been a successful negotiation
betwen Mr. Johnson' and the British Gov
ernment of the claims of the citizens of.
Great Britain,and the United States against!
these Powers. What has• been done about'
the action of the British Ministers in recog
nizing. the beligerent rights of the South, is
not exactly known. but it is understood
that Mr. Seward Is confident that his explicit
instructions that - this point should be decided,
have not been disregarded by lir. Johnson."
Another special says that Secretary Sew
ard, in a recent conversation, spoke in
rather strong And somewhat contemptuous
terms of Reverdy Johnson's cour se in-Eng
land, calling him more then once ""that fool
ish old man," and saying that he could not
concelveyhat had led him into the grave
blunders he has committed. He also said,
in response to an inquiry, that the Presi
dent had not expressed any intention of re
calling him. •
"The. New York Exerting Post says :
Rumor in Washington asserts that when the
President gave his private orders to. Mr.
Reverdy Johntoa, he was undeethe belief
that the democratic arty would elect, its
candidates; and wouldrule the country for
the next four yeara ; and that his object was
to assist in the restoration of the rebel lead
ers to predoniinance in the'counto; by giv
ing to their English "allies the contenance
and moral support_iof this government
through its Miniater.„ *Rumor supposes the
President to have reasoned that under a
democratic administration men 'who were
prominent in the _rebellion would govern in
'Washington and represent the United
Stites abroik; and that ,:there would be
something awkward in a person like Alex
ander H. Stephens, for instance, going to
England as. United States Minister;' and
meeting there suddenly those . English lead
ers who haie thought him and his cause in
excusably bad. It' was, therefore, made
the office of Mr. ReVerdy Johnson to pre
pare, by. his own cringing adulation of men
like Roebuck and Laird, a smooth entrance
for !some person like Stephens, Mason or
Pendleton.
It is asserted. in Washington - that Mr.
,Be t verd,y Johnson has kept up a special cor-,
, respondence with the President upon this
past of his dudes ;'that the 'Piesident sup
ports him in those acts which habeinortified
the whole country and that, finally, the
Secretaay of State ie kept in ignorance of

negotiations, and was reeently obliged_to
confess this lack of infortuation to the
British Minister.
sentence of Illgiunlst--Two Wives and
Two sweethearts. In Tears In 'the Court
Room.
A gay young deceiver named Albert A.
Whitehead was sentenced to imprisonment
in the State prison, for the term of three
years; on Tuefday, by Judge Troy, of
Brooklyn, for having a wife more than the
law allows. The prisonei was indicted up
on the complaint of. Henry Doubleday; a
resident of:Brooklyn, whom he •had vic
timized to the amount of $5OO, and whine
daughter he had married while having an
other wife in Buffalo. Mr. Doubleday, sus
pecting the character of Whitehead, niashi,
..some inquiry in regard to hie mOvenierits,
I and was surprised• to discover that, for
ode of his years, being only twentyeone,
he was a most consummate scamp.
He found that he had 'married a girl in
Buffalo named Hary'Jane Tellman some
months before marrying: his daughter, and
that he was engaged to two 'other girls:
This morning the prisoner was , brought up
in the Court ofliessions for trial, and was
not a:little astonished to find hie two wives
andtwo sweethearts present. He concluded
that it would be better for him to-ackaowl
edge his crime, and, without hesitation, he
therefore plead guilty to bigamy..• As soon•
as he was senteneed, thei. desire of the
young women to see the, man punished, if
they tad any, gave' way and Ithey burst:into

the batements. Up to the time of the shock
the weather was cold, but on themext day
the-thermonieter rods 15 degrees. Another
singular incident is the discrepancy as to.
the direction af the motion, some observers
stating that the . earthquake wave passed'
from north to south; others, from south; to
north, and a few from east to west. From'
these facts it may be inferred that the in
ternal 'disturbance took place directly be
. neath a central spot in England, and that
;the effects were diffused in every direction.'
Signs of earthquakes in remote antiquity
are still to be observed in the western coun
ties of England and in Wales..: Thus the
geologists report that the old red, sandstone
of the district around Usk has been burst
open by the upheaval of an enormous dome
of silurian rocks, and that the rivers run
along the tracks -of ancient earthquakes.
The eastern part of England, however, is
not exempt from subterranean -commotion:
.The remarkable earthquakes of 1185, 'by
which the cathedral of Lincoln was de
-stroyed, principally affected the . eastern
'counties. The earthquake of 1275 was
even more destructive many of the largest
churches in England having been demo':
fished.
It is remarked that both of 'these earth
quakes in Great Britain took place during
one of the long periods of rest in the vol
canic action of 'Vesuvius, which may be con,
sidered the vent of the European rezion of,
terrestrial . disturbance. In proof that erup
lions relieve the internal .fires, it is' stated
' that in the rest of Vesuvius, between 1049
and 1306, the neighboring Neapolitan vol
canic vents..were forced into activity, the
lake crater at Solfatara breaking out in 1198,
and the crater at Jochiti,' which had been
dormant for 1400 yearh, vomiting out in
1302 a lava stream which flowed a distance
of two miles to the sea. The English phil
osophers seem disposed to associate the, re
cent earthquake with the declining activity
of Vesuvius, and not the existence of a cen
tre of disturbance in England.: Of the va
rious theories of earthquakes, the latest and
most satisfactory is that of the Professor
Rogers, who consider the producing cause
as an actual pulsation of the internal molten
mass of flre propagated in the manner of
waves.' The motion is created by the ten
sion of elastic matter.
Gari. Gnexr was "originally" a Whig,
dyed in the wciol. His father was an Ohio
Whig, his brothers were Whigs, the.whole
family were'Whigs of the Harrison-Corwin
school of politics. TheGenemtwas brought
up a "Whig," and he remained' a member
bf that partyeuntil it ceased to exist. He
did not join the Republican party when it
was first, organized. He was, a "Conserva
tive" of Whig antecedents, from the intro
duction of the anti Nebraska bill until the
'outbreak of the rebellion—hoping against
hope that the sectional, controversies might
be compromised, and the unappeasable
slaveholdess appeased. The General dread-,
ed a civil war, and was willing to do abnost
anything to prevent it; but when the die
was cast, and •the Southern Democracy
raised its parricidal hands against the Union,
he hesitated not a moment as to what was
his duty, but at ones tendered his services in
defence of the Union. From that day for:
ward he has beans consistent Union Repub
lican, and has been as radical as the average
of that party:
