The FLORIDA DIsAsTER.-The republican pa
pers in Lincoln's interest are now throwing the
whole blame of the Florida blunder and defeat
upon the shoulders of General Gilmore. At
first General Seymour's shoulders were consid-
cred broad enough to bear the burden; but
General S. sank out Of sight under the weight.
But let them make it appear that either Gill
more or Seymour was responsible for the de-
feat, the fact is not attempted to be disguised
that neither the Secretary of War nor Major
General Halleck was consulted about the mat
ter by the President, who ordered the expedi-
ton to proceed. The War Department was or
ganized to give scientific and authoritative
direction to army movements; and it is illegal
for the President to undertake. warlike opera
tions without consulting the Department. In
failing to do this, in the instance of the late
disastrous operations in Florida the President
has laid himself liable to impeachment. An
Investigation by Congress, if fairly conducted,
wAl, undoubtedly, establish this fact; and a
searching investigation should be commenced
Immediately. Congress will fail in its duty to
the country if it hesitates to 60 to work in earn
est in this matter.

as soon as possible. Lincoln will not act in
the matter OF the Custom House changes until
something of the kind is done; and those who
do right will have good chance of reaping the
fruits Of their subserviency. Chevalier Barney
is all right Chase has withdrawn all objec.
tions. and Lincoln will make the appointments
as be pleases. 1t isa queer position for poor
Chase but he must sleep in the bed he has
made for himself II he had possessed the
courage to have left the Cabinet when the
secret manipulations Of his man Pomeroy to Sc

Lincoln, became kRown, he would have com

his independent position. AS he stands now

The WORLD ON FNANCE.-That pious, army
porter, India rubber and stockjobbing organ,
the World, is especially remarkable for its sin
gular and funny financial articles, which ap-
pear to be written by young student who is
enjoying his vacation here, and who knows as
much about finance as he does about gram
mar. The other day this schoolboy attempted
to review the speech OF the Hon. Mr.. Stebbins
upon the Gold bill, and pretty mess he made
OF it. He rambled from ST. Peters church OF
Rome to the Falls of Niagara; criticised the ora
tioDs Of Demosthenes and the odes of Pindar;
quoted poetry and French critic; skipped from
Burke to the Board Of Brokers'; dropped in at
the French Academy; compared Secretary
Chase and Samson; hauled up Erasmus, De
Quincy and Judas Iscariot; referred to quack
doctors and the Philistines; hitched together
Sir Isaac Newton and General Taylor, and con-
cluded with Virgil and Dryden. But what has
all this display of sophomorical learning to do
with the Gold bill or with Mr.. Stebbins, who
knew all about Wall street before this school
boy knew the alphabet? We advise Messrs.
Barnard and Barlow, the owners Of the World,
to send this immature and premature writer
back to his academy and employ a man to
write their financial articles; and we advise
the schoolboy in question to begin to study
English grammar forthwith, as that part OF his
education seems to have been sadly neglected.

PoLTIcAL ENGINEERING DISEASE IN TIE Gov
ERNxENr AT WAsHMcToN.-The Presidential
contest breaks out in new shape nearly every
day, just as the breach between the republi-
cans grows daily wider and wider. Gratz
Brown, of Missouri. has delivered speech
in the Senate against Lincoln, and h1 remarks
were received with applause. Upon conclud-
ing be was cordially taken by the hand by
some republican Senators, and Senator Sum-
ner warmly hugged him. 1t may have been
undigniied and bearish, but the report has it
that the Senator actually "hugged" him. The
opposition to Lincoln among republicans in
Congress is great. In the, House the opposi-
dou'is headed by Speaker Colfax, and in the
Senate by Vice President Hamlin In short be
is in q minority in both houses. Among the
newspapers, it is true that large number are
out for him; but their influence does not
amount to much. Several small State Le-
gislatures and conventions. like those Of
caucuses, have declared for him. But
neither is their influence potential. When
the Republican National Convention meets
in Baltimore 1t will be found that the
Congressional influence, headed by Vice Pres-
dent Hamlin and Speaker Colfax, will prevail,
and that all the small fry resolutions Of small
fry politicians in small fry State Legislatures
and caucuses and all the putting and blowing
Of the small fry country newspapers, will avail
nothing, and scarcely command IN hours seri-
GUS thought or consideration. But while all
these things are going on, what an anomaly
does the administration present. Here is the
Executive an aspirant for the succession, and
here is at least one member of his Cabinet an
aspirant for the same postion-rival candidates
for the same prize. And while the friends Of
each are electioneering and engineering for
their favorites, and the candidates themselv es
are pipelaying for their personal advantage,
the interests of the government are unheeded,
its safety jeopardized and the exercise Of its
functions nearly paralyzed. There was cause
for calling General Grant to Washington; for it
was necessary that some high-minded statesman
and military man should be consulted, in order
to save the government from the disgrace and
Generalization fast creeping upon it by the
squabbling between the Executive and men,
bers of his Cabinet for the possession Of the
public plunder for the next four years.
