' Their history may be briefly .given as follows: When the return judges of Philadelphia county met in Convention, a motion was mltle to throw out the votes of the North. rn Liberties, en account of alleged frauds.. By accepting the votes, the Sntillasonic eandi dater:foi*Corurres,, State Senate and Assem bly' were l'eleeted ; their "rejection gave the seats to the Democratic candidates ; The Democrats had a majority of the judges; and 'the returns were not accepted. Tl;e-.-tnti, Masonii• judges belted and , made.6nt other returns, including the votes of the Northern Liberties, which were sent t:.". Thos.. 11. Bar- . roweA, -Anti Masonic Seer'etiry of State, at Harrisbnrg:- When the Legislature assem bled, each set of candidates appeared for ad missicm,and In the Clouse the two partieS were. so nearly balanced that the acceptance or re jection of the Philadelphians involved the control of the bolt - . Meantime, much ex citement prevailed throughout the State, and serious disturbances were threatened. On the day of meeting. Harrisburg was full of angry men, but if we can rely On the Anti- Masonic 'papers of the time, the Democrats were largely in the ascendent. The vote for Speaker was taken, when the Democrats supported Wm. Hopkins, and the Anti-Ma sons Thos. S. Cunningham, each party hav ing separate tellers. Both, claimed to be elected, and, for some time, occupied seats on the platform, side by side. Of course, under such circumstances,/no buslueSs could be transacted, and affairswere brought to a dead lock. The Senate, which contained a major ity of, Anti-Masons, recognized the Cunning ham House. , Excitement increased through out that State, and the Democrat? resolved not to he defeated in their prograrnine, threatened to maintain Mr. Hopkins's right to the Speakership by force. The Governor, In his-fright, called out the militia of the ad joining, enmities, bat when they reached Harrisburg it was found that the Democrats were in the laajprity uuning the troopi;so that the Anti-Masons could not depend upon their tippslrt. He then wrote to , President Van Buret for aid, who pluMply refused. After 3fl :igitation of several weeks, four Anti-Masonic — Semtuirs receded from their original position, voted to recognize the 'Hop kins' House, and terminated all trouble in the Legislature. The Anti-Masons through out the State were fierce in then- denuncia tions of the recreant Senators, but soon sub sided into acquiescence, and thus ended one of the most memorable,. as it was also one of the most disgraceful, incidents fn Pennsylva nia history. Amid all the excitement,no blood taS spilled, and the' affair was dubbed, in consequence, the "Buckshot War." From this date, the' , ' Anti-Masonic party of:Penn sylvania rapidly declined, and In a fov years sunk out of existence. The Anti-Masons again nnminatcd David Dick for Congress, and John Galbraith, of Venarign, TM the Democratic'candidate. the county, Dick received;l,6l4 votes, - and Galbraith 1,610.

The State Constitutional Cnnrention , had completed their labors by establish ing. the instrument_ under which •we ,at present lire, .though it has since been mnenied. ln, several particulars, A rote was taken at this electidn on its adoption, and the Constitution was endoried by 119,210 for, to 115,258 against. Erie county gave -a majority bf 1,791 for Constitution. Previous to this, negroes bad voted in the State. The new Constitution excluded then from suffrage. In the Convention, our dele gates were divided, Mr. Sill voting for negro suffrage, and Mr. Pollock against. The Anti -Itl wins had a Slight. tnajority in the body. The Constitution of 1838 provided for the election of Prothonotary, and Register and Reentler,:instea 1 - of their wpointment by the Governor, as before. Jas. C. Marshall was the incumbent of the former office, and E D. Gunnison of the latter, both being Democrats. The same instrument also changed the manner.of selecting Justices of the Peace from appointment 'to election by the people. The choice of these °Ricers was not rustle until the spring election in 1840, the old - incounhents retaining their pOsitions until the first Monday of May in that. year. Gideon J. Bill and C.

The Leadinp Radical Paper of Illinois 'Pronounces It a Failure. A Change of Cabinet Dematided. The Chicago Tribune, the leading Radical paper 'of Illinois, last week; contained the 'ollowing editorial. The "soft sawder" which it piles upon Gen. Grant is evidently de signed to make its criticblms of his Adminis tration the more palatable to its Radical readers : When General Grant was inducted into the Presidential office on the 4th of March lash he was stronger in the respect and confidence of the people than any other man who has filled that high office during the present generation. The only predecessor compara ble to him In this regard was Mr. Lincoln but Mr. Lincoln never Saw the day when he was tree from the active, determined host It (y of a powerful political party. This party, when Gen. (rant was inaugu rated, had not only been crushed by desert, but con-uered by a latent achniration of. the cool, silent, sure- thoted antagonist who had overthrown them on so many and such di verse fields of action. The Republican par ty, so lately torn asunder tit, ohe impeach ment was again united, and irresistible in its loyalty - to its elected' chief. On that day it may be safely said thai President Grant was the strongest man in Christendom ; for his power was rooted in the affections of a 'free people. , • There has Levi a change. Two months have passed away, and it can ant be affirmed that Nve have, a strong,, ad ministration. .Its moral pnwe has been . frittered away by small absurdities, which, fOrTunately, have no bearing upon thL,sincerety, the truthfulness, or the high nurphse of the President and his advisers. We doubt if there ever was an ad ministration with more good intentions ar licart or less aptitude fitr ating them into effect. And since the evil uMeh,exists is not . . . able to cure Itself; its remedy must be sought and found elsewhere. General Grant is our President.: He i, man of high motives!and pure purposes. His tory dues not record a more illustrious career m arms thin his. Whether •we regard the magnitMe of W.:achievement or his' sinele ne•ss or purrise—whether we contemplate the accuracy of his judgment, nr the firmness of his re4olves, or the unselfishness of his acts, we must admit that be stands among the great men of ancient and modern times lie is ; too 'greitt and too good a man to be allow ed to fall into popular derision for the want of friends courageous enough to acquaint him with his errors. General Grant's first mistake consisted in his supposing that a governmentis the same !him , . Os an army, and that an administration is to be carried on as a battle is fought, with infantry, cavalry, and artillery. To com mand an army successfully officers are needed to execute the orders of the General in'Chief. To carry on a gOvernment statesmen are needed who understand the ideas, the wahts, and the temperament of the people, and whose conjoint experience and wisdom may term a body of opinion in harmony with the nation, or at least with the party in power. If there be a Statesman in Gen. Grant's Cabinet, he has yet to make himself known as sedum the public. ' To begin at the beginning, the Secretary of State does not know the men, or the ideas, or the country of the present day ; nor dd they know him. He is a gentleman of a noble and pure type. It is probable that.-he was as much surprised when he was called to fill the foremost place in the Canine as his country men were. -He has come down to us from a former generation, and, in all that constitutes excellence of character, he is a worthy mine mutative of the times in which he acted his part. But he is trot the man to conduct our diplomacy. Norls he the man to take a leading. position in it great and progressive government_ The Secretary of the Treasury is likewise a man of, pure and elevated , character, who tins risen from law station by his own verse verance and rectitude.. But his abilities are not above mediocrity, and if he should re main at the head of the Treasury Depart neat during , his natural life he could dp no more than 'drift with the tide, and avoid the breakers from hour to hour as best be might.. " The Secretary of War is the strongest and most positive man in the Cabinet—a hero in eveiy moral aspect, yet an invalid in health and unqualified by training and experience. to take the leading position which circ/in s-tenet-a have forced upon him in the national administration. Even he is known to the country save as a staff officer of the Com manding General during the war. Few men know the worth, and few have felt the na five powers of miod which belong to John A. Rawlins. In view of his close relations to the President and his sterling qualities, his appointment was certainly fit to be ma le, And we hope he may be retained. As the ,administrative officer of the War Department he has no superior,- feeble as he is in physical health and strength, yet no one will admit more readily than himself .that he has not had the sort of education that fits a man to lead a Cabinet council. And we fear that even. his advice hes been thus far of little avail. • The Secretary of ?belies - 3- is, by common consent, unfitted either forldministration or council—a worthy and well-tneaninif myr oloott. whose unfamiliarity with pnlitteal IA exceeded only by his ignoran(4• ot naval atrairs. The Secretary of the Interior, the' Post master Getterid and the Attorney General are probtOly competent to discharge the clerical duties of their offices; but prior to their ele vation they were not in any way distin guished as statesmen, or held 'by their ac quaintances as better qualified' to assume the reigns Dr government, than the averce of their neighbors i 0 the same place of sOciety. General Grant, whose distinviighing eseel lene,e liming the war consisted in his ability to select the right men for the right pikes, has apparently not perceived that statesmen are required to fill the places of statesmen. The second mistake •of the President (and the one which bas perhaps weakened him most in.the public estimation,) is his eager ness to appoint personal friends and relative& to office. 'ln this behalf he has furnished a target to the enemy where all their shots take effect, not on hint alone, but upon the party' which elected him. . . . In appointing Mr. Washburne,Secretary of State, as a mere matter of compliment, he . trifled with the dignity of the highest office in his gift. S. compliment of this nature' ought not to have been either conferred or accepted. The office was too high to have been made an instrument of politeness.. More than bait the votes against the repeal of the Office-Tenure f law were made by this indis creet act. General Grant was Tight in de ' mending the, repeal of that law. He stood upon solid ground when be refused to move tn.! I the oimoxiouit statut .t should be repealed, , ,and it he had not erred in the exercise of the I appointing power in the precise way that he di clerr,ke tiould have overcome all opposition within a week utter his inauguration. But by • first despoiling the principal office in his gift, and. then making baste to confer other im portant and valuable offices upon near rela tions and personal cronies, he subjected him self to the charge of nepotism. The Senate was not slow to perceive that in, a contest growing out of the Tenure-of-ofile'e law they had all the advantage, because the people would be quick to observe that the , appoint ing poo er Waa not I,udicionsly exercised, and wou b I not so readily comprehend - the vicious ness-of the principle underlying the obnnx lats statute. , Hence the , law- was not . re pealed. Whyi - it may be asked,' do we say these things? ,The answer is two fold., In the first place they are, already kno - Wn' —everybody is talking about them, in the streets, on horse cans, in the railroad ,trains, in the club rooms, around encore tables, and everywhere except it the Executive' , man sion. The facts cannot be' inure public than they are. . In the second place, it is necessary, as we conceive, that there should be a change. There taut be a Cabinet with statesmanship in it, and! there must be an end to nepotism in the government, because the respect and confidence of the public cannot be retained where the former is wanting and the latter aboundsi Without the respect and confi dence o 1 the public no administration can have vitality.. , • ' "This," as Mr. Lincoln said to the Southern Commissioners, "is our common country." General Grant is our Chief Magistrate. His serviees have been too gtes,, his principles ate too high, his respongibilities are too vast, to be dwarfed and jeopardized rot the Want of•a little plain, unvarnished truth. If any apologyis required from us, we have noth hr: better to offer than this: that we aresin cerely attached In our President, and to the principles upon, which he was elected r atdl we cannot permit the usefulness of the one or the success of the other to be put in per 1 by a series of petty mistakes, so easily rt:- paired, if we have any power to avert the catastrophe. Gen. Leers Visit to President Grant. - [correspondence or the 'World.] WAsnmotrox, May I.—The interview of Gen. Robert E. Lee, of Virginia, with the President of the United States has been the eveut of the day, and has set all. the quid- nuncs to talking, and the trimly toil to swear ing in the most profane manner. Tills morn ing the General Arrived in the early train lie was borne at once to the cottage of his old friend, Mrs. Kernon, of Georgetown, re mained in undistusbed retirement for about hallan 'lour, and then proceeded In a car riage to the Executive Mansion. Meantime, there had gathered at the White House:thout twenty, persons; principAly office holderaol the district, yet among them one or two Sen attars, including-Thayer of Nebraska. Some of these, all of whom had been atlinitted by card, were with the President at the time. At eleven'o'Clock the carriage in which Gen Lee had come,„milved, and by previous ar rangements the General was quietly shown into the Red. Parlor, whence he sent up his card to the President. The latter at once ex- • cased himself to those with him, and to those wining for him, saying, merely, that he hail. a private interview arranged which won't' occupy as much time as he hid to spare dur ing the day. Aceordiggly they all wlllatiost , and the President received Gen. 1. , e, whom, the formee had specially sZeited t o anise up. 'mark- a ,lasted halt an hour. It was strict Iv private, hut it has become knoWn that the President desired to and Out exactly what were the sentiments of 0 n.

In regard to the IF . esent, constitution, Gen. Lee said there were p iris in it on which and tor which the best men ol the State mould be gl al to vote, butt that if they had, or were to have,-anything to say as to the, mode of submission, he hoped that sue proscription and disfranchising clauses ' might be referred separately.

Until recently, students of the Bible haite labored under many disadvantages. The inform:- lion they, sought' was ‘ unattainable out of lava) libraries, and scattered through a thou sand volumes of conimentaries, dry treatises, technical researches, travels and histories. This Dictionary is a condensation at infor mation, from all these sources, and is a flood of light poured upon the Scriptures. It is the result of the combined thought and labor of more than sixty of the most eminent scholars of this eoun trit..and,EuroPe. Scarce ly a question can arise, even remotely con nected with the Scriptures, which is not answered-with sufficient fullness in this book. There are no DIMWS of persons, animals, plants, or things—nothing pertaining to than or nature—no allusions to history, local tra ditions, peculiar customs, superstitions. do ss, manners, habits—that are not here clearly and often minutely explained. It is the biography, geography, natural history and antiquarian investigation of -the Bible all in one. To ordinary readers of the Bible, who have not access to any large theological library, such a book ZIA this is of incalculable value. We' only spealt the verdict of all competent judges when we_say that it stands entirely alone in its field. It is a library in itself, and one might vk iselw forego many of the so-balled necessaries of lire lit order to possess it.
