TEN RIGHTEOUS MEN WANTED.

When Belshazzar tori ed bis beared eyes to sstd
the wanscot Of his baoquet-hall and there saw
the peculiar and awful display which has furnished
so many atter-dsy orators with simile, his knees
smote tOgetter-tbus indicating BY the antique
method mortal dread. The discom6tiog legend OF
fire was the more vexatiOus because it was incom-
prehensibe -beir written in language not taught
ia six easy lessons by the teachers of Babylon. Is
is fortunate that we have inaugurated other
methods-of indicating extreme terror; ese at the
perusal of the following paragraph all the country
must surely have been aroused by the shifting TO-
gether of conflicting knees The pregnant sen-
tence is VII ten in two languages-One of them
Latin; the other surely lot Eogli,h-and it is from
a New. York correspondent Of The Charleston aer.

terrible revelation it is proper now to administer
the paragraph:

1t beh, owes us to set at once abou! our search
after fen righteous men; for the prophetic writer
speaks with such decisive sterDntss that clearly
it would be useless 70 pray bin to reduce the
number TO five. Ten men wanted to save State
and City The places where they should be found
are the Hall in the Park and the Capitol at Albany.
We can hear the i'll Omened correspondent laugh in
fiendish mockery at the suggestion his oschinatoa

at this unfortunate commencement of our search,
We may as well lie down and groau, giving an un-
limited order for sackcloth and ashes.
1t is cruel in this occasional correspondent not
to be bit more definite in his representation.

are not only vain, and lastful, and arrogant, and

notO only guilty of 50 emptiness, but this lie rampant
Rampant emptiness certainly ought not to be al
low ed one hour tolive and We will kiss the rod even
though it come it the shape Of an overSeers slave

make US SO than for special correspondents Of
Southern Msrcuries to leave lyiug loosely about
such dreadful paragraphs as that above.

Before Stephens heart bad begun TO Year,
toward his relatives, and while he was absorbed Ia
the seliish affairs Of state-to wit: on the 10Th
end 18th days of May, ls6O-he rose in bis place
in the Senate, and in the audience Of crowd OF
brave womeo and fair men whom bis fame had
drawn away from the Japanese, then ragiog AZ
WillaIds hotel, he delivered q long and elaborate
speech, enchanting the attention of the chamber as
much by his collOquial elOquence and evident
struggle of frail body with robust miod, as by
the force of his logic. Among the copious ex-
tracts which bis assiduous friends were politely re-
quested to read for bin, was q letter from Alex
ander H. Stephens Of Georgia to a committee Of
anxious inqurers. Mr.. Douglas said;
Ist that the whole bis letter long s be read for 1t
The entire goa and speaks In the yOo, Of Pao,
party, and perpetuate the Union OF these Statea'
This letter in :" covering the entire ground, OK
tended itself over the great questions of nonnter-
vention, the Kansas and Nebraska act, and the
bred Scott decision. In connection with the latter
of these familiar themes, Mr.. Stephens wrote
"Imsy be PERM ted say that have read with deep inter
The able logical and eloquent speech fthe Hen William L.
1ancey OF Alabama"
This speech was printed in pamphlet form soon
after its delivery, fom the Congressional record Of
The Globe, undoubtedly revised by the author him
self and was circulated by his friends as another evil
dence of his rising power as public speaker.
This pamphlet, of course, contained Mr. Ste
phers's letter.
Another edition of the pamphlet has been print
ed, and is in active circulation in the West aud
North West Ii bears the same title with the first,
and is to the casual eye precisely the same docu-
meLt. But we know that the quick optic of the
Anxious Parent, undim med BY time, would detect
q material difference if the two pamphlets passed
under her examination. 1t would be arrested, at
page 80 of pamphlet No. 3, by solemn line Of as
terisks, and it would dilate with surprise at the
discovery that in their place in pamphlet No. are
the passages of Mr.. Stepbens's letter relating to
Non-interventioD, & ,., which tie Senator asked
might be read in spite of their length on the 10th
and 18th of May, and warmly commended as
" counselDg the oDly course that can preserve the
&" Democratic party, and perpetuate the union of
" these States"
For such petty transaction as this, none but
mother can have any tender or trustful sentiment,
and therefore we hope the meeting between Ste
phen and his Anxious Parent may very soon take
place. And let US hope that her afiectionate ad-
monitions may at least have some effect in recall
ing him back toward the paths of virtue, honesty,
and common manliness,

We answer our correspondents questions in their
order:
]. The duty of Republicans is to oppose the re-
election of every corrupt member of the late dis
graceful and disgfaced Legislature.
2. AS general thing, it will be better to run an
inee pendent candidate wherever the Republican
candidate is Objectionable on tbs ground In case.
however that running an independent candidate
would only tend to secure the election Of a man u
proved corruption, it will be better to refrain from
voting atOp ether in order to let the Democrats or
whatever other party choose their candidate. Tho
general principle is, that # The merit Legislature
must be composed Of there's, it is better tia, hsg
should be sent there by some body beside the Repre-
licans.
3. II is not absolutely certain that every NAV
who voted agaitst Gov. Morgan's yetoes was Ger.
rupt, but the presumption is very strong 10 that
direction; ard it will be SAFER, on the whole, To
treat all such legislators with great caution.
Above all, let US see that, so far as lies in us.
the pext Legislature is an honest one That is our
chief duty in that regard.

The World is Journal lately established in this
City, which processes independence ia politics, yet
eyinces in its leading articles certain qualified as
sent to Republican ideas ard objects, though it de
votes those columns largely to fault-fnding with
nearly all that Republicans do or are thought
to do. Speaking generally, we should say that its
politics are mixture Of Republicanism and water
but with an enormous excess of the water. Or its
creed, as developed in its columns may be pretty
clearly expressed thua: 81. Slavery ought not to
" be extended 2. Most probably it never will be;
/" 3. 1t doesn't matter much whether it is or not"
Thus, it notes Gov. Stewards averment
(Which Aleck Stephen, made year ago) that the
vital Extension Of Slavery is impracticsble without

" the sight of my mother" we hope that in how

and afectiOnate recognition. mothers blush

The Common Council concurred last evening to
restore Engine Companies Nos. l3 and 81, which
had been disbsnded for rioiiDg in front of THE
TRIBUNE Office, on the night of July 3, to their
former position in the Fire Department. 1t was
for this purpose that the Board of Aldermen was
specially convened. We regard this action, over
riding the judgment of the Fire Commissioners, as
q wrong done to the Fire Department, and the
citizens at large. These two companies deliber'
ately engaged In murderous affiay 10 the public
street, at az early hour, when large numbers of
people were abroad using pistols and other deadly
weapons with such reckessness that several of the
participants were dangerously wounded, 80 as to
uecessitate their removal to the City Hospital,
where one Of them subsequently died of his wounds.
In dsbandDg these companies the Commissioners
did a wise thing. The Common CouI Gil in rector
ing them offered premium to lawless violence,
and strikes deadly blow at the Volunteer Fire

Both branches of the Common Council met last
evening In the Board of Aldermen, the Street
Cleaning Contract was rejected without debate
only three MEMBERS MessrS. Starr, Daragh aud
Owens voting to confirm it, aud the City In
spectOr was directed to prepare new specifications
and submit them to the Board. 1t is quite clear
that the Street. cleaning business will not be
touched until after the election and not then, I'M
less public opinion should compel the requirements
OF the Charter TO be complied with. La the Coun-
Gil Boa the JapeDese business was not touched,
for the reason that without the vote of Mr. Lent,
or one of the other gentlemen who have heretofore
opposed it, the swiDdle cannot pass. We have an
abiding faith 10 the honesty and integrity of the
seven members of the Board who haze fought it
thus far, snd should they stand firm, the claimants
must look to BOole & Co. for their money. In
that tyett we fancy the bills will not exceed the
$50, 900 originally appropriated for the reception

The confusion of the Democracy is progressing
very satisfactorily. The Green State Committee,
on Thursday, intimated to Mr. Benjamin Wood,
who had been detailed by the Dean Committee to
attend to the Breckinridgers, he being an adept in
matters of policy, that they were ouly waiting to
be asked, and would hold meeting yesterday
for that purpose. They did meet, and Mr..
Wood asked them (the Green men) for ten
names on the Electoral ticket, and for the Gov
ernor and Lieutenant. Governor Until late
hour last evening, Wood was dickering with them,
trying to get them to take different combination
in his scheme. AT ii p m. the Green Committee
were go far roped in by him as to throw their best
and strongest man, Jas. T. Brady, overheard, and
to consent to take the two lowest names on the
State ticket. They were then begging for their
ten Electors. They should have them. 1t would
be cruelty to animals in Mr.. Wood, not to allow
them to nominate as many candidates for Electors,
as the w. Hunt clique was allowed to nominate.
The transaction will be completed to-day.
