Senatorial Precedent' pt Courtesy.
When we asked the question, whether there
was a Damocratic Senator who had the cour
tesy- and the candor to pair off with Harry
White, now a prisoner in the keeping of the
rebels,we did not expect to elicit an affirmative
response from the Torg Organ. That which is
honorable, fair, noble;• -patriotic, 'virtuous or
reverential, finds no reisponse'in 'that (Oiarter.
Bat we believe that, if it were not for thelash
of 'party discipline, which is now held over the
Senate, such a pairing off could and would
have been effected long.before_this stage of the
&graceful proceedings in "that body. We be
lieve that there'are those among the minority
whose manly initincts and honorable estima
t lona of, what ij clearly just, revolt at the po
sition into whlich they have been forced. Bat
as we have alriady ivritten - ,-Ihe lash of party Is
over the headlofk - Democratic Senators—they
stand •affrightedftfore the "lead and steel" of
Which the Tory Organ once so glibly boasted,and
are therefore deterred from:doing an honorable
action, from repudiating the rule of party ma
lignity that the interests of the State and the
public business might be promoted.
—So far as precedent is concerned, as well as
so far as justice and the Constitution bear upon
the question, those representing the minority
are wilfully and deliberately in the wrong.
Some years since, the notorious Racial° w, who
now misrepresents Pennsylvania in the 11. S.
Senate v and while be was a member of the
State Senate, was called from his seat on pub
lie business—which left that body iu a poeition
similar to .that in which it now stands. Vie
- nig Senators, however, recognized the fact that the
body war Democratic, BY YIELDING THE OEFIDEB OF
THE SENATE TO THE DEMOCRACY. At another
time a certain Democratic Senator, (once the
.pride of hie friends, beloved and honored by
his family, but, alas, a victim to the poison of
,the cup,) was rendered incapable of •getting to
hie seat to vote on an important question which
it was found could only be carried by one vote.
'Senator Francis was opposed to the Senator
thus intoxicated, but when the vote was taken,
he voluntarily paired off with his besotted col
league, declarine• that he could not take
a mean advantage of an „opponent when
he <was incapable of ,performing his duty.
Here sire two instances in which the oppo
nerds of the Democracy acted with as manly
and patriotic courtesy' in cases similar to that
which now exists in the . Senate. But how is
this noble action reciprocated? A Republican
Senator is now in the hands of the enemies of
his country. A Republican Senator was taken
prisoner while perilling . his life in the defence
of our nationality, our freedom amb.our, rell 7 ,
gigs. tat the minority in the Senate refuels ,
te yield the organization of that body to the
'majority to which that Senator belongs!! They_
not only .refuse this, bat they deliberately de
clare that the Senator has forfeited hie tight to
his seat because he went forth td battle for his
country. What that is more monstrous can
the leaders in question do, to convince the
common-sense people of Pennsylvania •that
they are in league with the traitors in the .
South:? ,
The Suffering In fast Tenneeei4l..
Gov. Ccirtin,, in his last messige,.htsnggest
lug that the . lAglalature make an.appropriation
to•relleve the suffering of the citizens of East
Tennessee, has only responded to what we be
iiefaito be the disposition, of the people of the
Commonwealth. ?annoylyania is as ready to
shate her prosperity to relieve the faniine
stricken people of the South as she is to dis
play and exercise her power in quatlingrebellion
and conquering treason. - She has sent her sons
into the States of the South West to egoist in
. .,restoring them to peac3 and re-establish
therein the-authority of the Government, and
no 'we know that she is able to feed the.staiv
big a 3 well as to chastise the refractory. We
etust, then„that the Legfshiture will respond
to,the suggestion of> the Governor and 'appro
.
ptiate a handsome sum in aid of the suffevirs to
East Tennessee. -s
The policy of .the4euggestion on the part of
the Executive, should be sufficient to elicit
forit a prompt response from the Legislatnre.
But aside from its policy, it is a practical
measure of great humanity; and if the
ture would approprhde $50,000 to be diVoled
to the relief of the people of East Tennessee,
we believe that Tennessee at some future time,
when again , blessed with plenty, would re;
imburee the State in full for every dollar thus ap
propriated. We 'do not offer 'this assurance
of our faith to the people of Tennessee, to
induce our law-Makeri'lo - do a noble act, but
we give it as the . sectirity that bread cast unon
the waters shall be found after many days.---
Such a tend& of financial . assistance would
do more toward . restoring the las& to
peace, than a successful raid of our mostgallant
cavalry. It would show to the people of the
South that we are ready to make any sac
rifices to secure peace, that we are ready to yield
to the people of the revolted States anything but
the national honor, national adthority, the
union and the Constitution, to restore•the land
to, peace. • We repeat our hope that, ,as own as
the disgraceful proceedings which arenory 'ob
structing the public business in the Stinth, can
be brought to an end,the Leglslature will make
an, appropriation for the relief of the starving
people of East Tennessee.
A Million - of Men,
There is proposition now before COgirees
to call out a million of men, and with such an
army march to the overwhelmiog crushing out
of treason. It is , proposed , to call out this force
:for three months. There are sufficient arms in
the country to fit out such it body .of men for
immediate active service, while the force itself
would be composed largely of soldiers acquaint 7
ed with dlixdpllne and ready at , once to
the enemy,. Aside from -the wholesome erect:
such a body of armed men would havitouithe
rebellion, the influence of the spectacle which
would thus b 3 presented, would also have a
wonderful effect upon the tyrants and aristocra
cy of the old world, who have been doing so
much to damage the American people and their
GoverenAnt. We sincerely hope that this
movement of a mUlion of men may yet become
a practical success, and that such an army will
ere long - march to conquer rebellion !
A Profitable Arrangement for 'hoes in
the Ring.
Some time aince one Cyrus Cramer, an catache
of the Lancaster County. Prison, sued the edi
tors and proprietors of the Evening Express,
Messrs. Pearsol & Geist, for libel, the article
'complained of haying been a local item refer
ring to . the bad_management` of the prison.
Bat iti f ilfegus;thatit.here 'was motive ehiad
thisextfon of Muriel. and that the real
Mice consisted of the Express having exposed
the exiiitence of a secret organization, by which
the patronage and the positions in the gift of
the people of Lancaster county have been con
trolled by a certain gang of corrupt politi:
cane. The Thugs (as - the Express classicaly
terms the Members of this order) combined. to
carry delegate elections, had members .of. their
own order sent to County Conventions, and
thus in opposition to the clearly expressed mill
of the peopie, and to the disgust of the , hide
pendent voters of that county, these dirty
sneak's have been monopolizing the patronage
andd - nienipulating tha power of the upright,
invincible ; and loyal men - Of the Old Guard. The
actionler libel, so .far as -the Thugs are con
cerned, -was a most unfortonate proceeding.—
The 'Wrong men were assailed, when the eq.
tore of the Express were promoted, and we
trust that our cotemportulcs will leave no effort
anspared, no truth undeveloped, to drag all
who have a connection with ; the schemes
and the plots of the Thugs before the bar
of Justice, that they may there be lashed
by public scorn and contempt -The pro
ceedings in this transaction, so fir as we
have perused the report of the Express are
truly sickening and* humiliating. -The fact is
fairly shown that a few petty lawyers, mere
shysters, men of "notorious incompetency and
ignorance-, have been ruling the conventions of
Lancaster county, and' directing the destiny of
a great Reidy against the wishes of its men of
brains, and its aspirants of respectability and
honor. Neven.before haw a baser oombination,
thin that of the-I:kw, been entered into for
selfish' purposes. Themen who are at the head
of these "Thugi' are Only deterre4 from be
coming common highWayinen -by 'their cow
ardice.
Heavy Receipts of Cottint and sugar.
The'recelpte of cotton and sugar at St. Louis
and Cincinnati, have been immense within . the
last few days. The name, of eight boats froM
Id.etatihia and New 'Orleans are reported, all
being loaded, to a grater or less extent, with
cotton, sugar and`molmses. The aggregate of
eac/COf i these ertibles arriving within twenty
four hoursamounts to 1,840 bales of c0tt0n,1,852
I hogsheads of sugar and 803 'barrels of molateif i
besides a considerable amount, of other articles
limn tlUkiputheru Market. The ktew OFleags
PiCayune estimates the total .receipts of cotton
at that port since the lat of September at 48,-
TOO bales. , These figures are 'trifling in com
parison with the receipts of the same staple at
New Orleansbefore the war, but they, never•
thelMa, show - that the trade is reviving It Is
thus the people of the South will gradually be
convinced of the - advantages of peace and the
L ininons Consequences of war:
—We trust that 'these - immense'stores will
not fall into the hinds of such speculators 'an
Stewart, of New - York, as in that event the
',`masses will reapxio benefit from their arrivalhn
the Northern and Western markets. If these
larticles can fairly'reach the people, the benefit
of openidg trade once more with the South
by all ;bat if, the praducts . thOs ar
iivhig are to to be seized and.held as specula
tions by sharps of the northern market, they'
might just 163 well have been retained In the'
South, for all the good the. trade will do the
people. Speculation, and not-the actual nedes,
allies of the war, have inflicted the kintlerlng
upon the people with which they now groan.
Such :a money , cormorant as Stewart, of New
York, itequally responsible with Jeff Davie; for
the misery which now afflicts the nation.
English and French /e.lntagontsm to the
Vatted States.
We are constantly reminded that there is
daily danger of a war between either France
.
and our Government, or Great Britain and our
Government.: On.this theme our commercial
cotemporarierof New York and Philadelphia
expatiate spaamodicallY; returning to the'lo
- whenever there leardeartli'-iit other topics
, ,
to discuss, or, as some people ars unkiqd
enough to insinuate, whenever it will serve
the speculating classes of commercial oiFelen.
But while the himcombe which , flows from ihe
subject is receiving its periodical .additkit; it
would be wellfor careful people to remember
thid neither Entland or Friice have a' . navy
that can compete or contend with the inuarocirs
bin iron clads which now• cover our whole ex
tent of the Atlantic cast, and until the Freich
and the English are thus proiided, we need fear
nothing real from the threitining in whielt
both these powers indulge. It Is very certain
that the English would have interfered in o ar
domeetic-affairs, had the British navy been tc:l
- to the purpose. So also with France.
oar.naval strength, and not the justice find ,
right of our poeition, has kept these power's at
bay. Beth did us all the mischief possible:
Both would love to mingle in our quarrel with
the slaveholding traitor. They are detiveil
from this by our iron clads. This factal i one
should quiet the fears of those timid people,
who occasionally-allow themielves to be pkno
dercid by the sharpers of New York and Pldla
delphbt, dealing in the credit of:the nation, and'
gambling on every:subject, regardless .whetiher

men, wielding - an infthence larger than thaVof
any individual in the count r y;-:Rad hit died'
a year ago, or before he took the part which
he did in the New York riots to resist the draft'
be would have left a fairer memory among
those who love their country and desire to see
its authority respected and obeyed. In Eng
land, at the time the slaveholdera' rebellion
seemed most powerful, Bishop Hughes man
fully stood up in the, defence of his adopted
country, and was influential in deterring the
British Ministry from Interfering in our domes
tic difficulties. But the good which he ac
compllshed for his country abroad Was..marred
by the evil which he allowed to be inflicted on
its attitude at home. We trust that he repent.
ed of this before he died.
—The biographers of Bishop Hughes fail to
mention one important fact in the history of his
career in this country. It is well established
that his origin was very, huilble, and that he
reached the distinguished eminence which he
occupied before he died, alone by the force'of
his native gepius and wonderful graces and
accomplishment's of mind and parson. The
fact to which we desire to refer Is, thatßishoP
Hughes wrought as a day laborer In making
turnpike in the Cuniherland Valley. He him
self often referred to this fact when talking
.
with Pennsylvanians, of the great growth and
mighty progress of the OoMmonwealth, and
hp seemed 'to regard his experience as an
honest laborer with the pride and the satisfac-
tion which belong to the true dignity of labor.
This incident in the eerier of this great man
should be carefully 'ettidied by'all who toil for
honest living, And, should 'lnspiie every yo ung
man of the land Who now labors with th&hope
and' courage and virtue - which raised the la
borer, John Mighes, td the highest distinction
in his Church, and the greatest honors among
the intellects of his age.

MARY KYLE DALLAS,
whine name has become a household word
wherever the English language is spoken.
The story in question is made up of mingled
fact and fiction, and the heroine in a young
lady who from affluence is reduced to poirerty
by" the death of a father, who is r;ndered bank
rupt by the schemes and machinations of a
villain. Thus impoverished, the friendless girl
looks to teaching In a public school for the
means of support, and the authoress, with that
nervous power. which marks all her literary
productions, carries her through the trying or
deals which ever beset the young and friendless
girl who tries to obtain a situation as teacher.
Having been a teacher hermit., Airs. Dallas is
thoroughly familiar with her subject. She
knows it in all its details, from the commence
ment to the finish, and she is posted, also, with
regard to the characters of most of those who
occupy prominent positions in relation to the
management of the public school system.--
I Where merit is due she freely accords It ; bat
' where censure is warranted, she applies It with
an unsparing hand, and in a manner calculated
to make the recipients of it wince.

Altogether, we doubt if'a more exciting—
and atthe same time a more useful story, as to
the moral which it conveys—was ever offered
to the public, and we shall be much mistaken
if its publication does not lead to wide-spread
comment. That it contains several Palxhan
charges, which will "strike somewhere," the
public may rest assured.
