Forewarned.-Our Conservative revolutlonists
are getting along rapidly. In their view, we
don't need q popular branch in the United
States Government any more. The President is
urged to suppress 1t by military force. We
should then have no more trouble, as the same
person who executes the laws would also make
them. One OF the organs of these reyolutionists
thus urges the President on:-
at the Radical Congress have been guilty of
all these crimes against the republic, 1t IS time
that they be dsarmed and rendered impOtent
IN the future. If they have done what the Presi-
dent has said that they have DONE they should
not be permitted an opportunity to repeat their
cTme. At the next session they should be con-
ironted by the Executive authority, and COM
PEELED to relnqush their usuroe0 powers. 1t is
not enough for the Executive to declalm against
their reasonable and incendiary action; he
should mterpose the power that he welds, in
cludng, If necessary, the military power, to re-
0uce them to subsection to the laws and the
Constitution of the Republic "

THE CERTAINTY OF THE ELECTION OF
JOHN CovoDE.-All advices that come to us
from Westmoreland county indicates, beyond
q question OF doubt, that the Republican party
will gain an additional memberin the District
now represented by Hon. JOHN L. DAWSON.
The selection of Hon. JOHN CovoDE, and his
acceptance OF the nomination, made the issue
a settled fact. There is no man in Pennsyl-
vania in whom the people have more conf
dence thon Mr.. CovoDE. OF long experienc' ;,
fully versed in all the details of government,
of most ncorruptible honor, and disposition
at once fearless and consistent, he will be a
tower Of strength in Congress, OF which he
may be already considered member.

SHERDAN's first despatch, August 1. is the
one which has already been published. His
second despatch is under date OF August 2,
and is the one which has hitherto been sup
pressed or mutilated. 1t is as follows:-

despatch to General GRANT, giving an &C

followng:-

Two more dispatches close the history. We
would be glad to give them in full, but their
extreme length prevents our doing so. The
first is despatch from the President, pro-
pounding a series of inquiries covering the
entire ground maintained by the apClogists
and defenders Of the Mayor and police.
SHERIDAN's reply goes into full history of
the matter, which can best be summed up by
saying thai it fully confirms and substantates
his previous despatch in regard to the preme-
ditated and murderous character of the riot

Probable Release of Jeff. Davis.

THE New York Express OF last evening an
nounces editorially its belief that JEFFER-
SON DAVIS will shortly receive his release,
and once more tread the soil of the land
whose destruction he so earnestly strove to
achieve. 1t bases its statement on the ground
of "the recent discovery of a correspondence
between the supposed suborned witnesses
before the Judiciary Committee" Upon this
basis the Erpress and other friends Of DAVIS
are confident of securing his release on parole.
We place but little faith in the story. The
crimes of the chief Rebel-tbe Moloch and
Belial combned-are too atrociouS, and the
feelings OF all loyal men too intense, to admit
of the belief that he would be trusted on his
honor. when by the acts OF lifetime he has
proved that he possessed no such article in
his moral constitution.

Prussian Acknowledgement.

PRUSSIA is already beginning to realize the
fruits of her recent victorious German aud
Austrian war. The announcement is made
that, owing 10 the hostile attitude maintained
towards Prussia by the kingdom of Hanover,
the people of Electoral Hesse, Nassau, and
the tree city OF Frankfort, the King of Prus-
sia has determined to at once destroy their
independence and incorporate them into
his kingdom. The poor blind and exilei
King of Hanover is informed that he is ex-
pected at once to abdieate. This he is ready
to do, but pleads, as does his wife, for the
succession of his son. Prussia is inexorable,
and the kingdom of Hanover vanishes for the
future from the map OF Europe.
A glance at the map will show that other
considerations besides those of the assumed or
real hostility of the people above enumerated
must have influenced Prussia in this decision.
The Rhine provinces of Prussia are now
separated from the main body of the kingdom
by these very countries that Prussia proposes
to incorporate with herself So, also, tae
provinces of Schleswig and Holstein, which
have just been ceded to Prussia, are separated
from her in part by Hanover. Prussia, too,
as one of the great powers of the world, needs
free outlet to the sea, so that she may build
up foreign commerce and establish navy.
This Hanover, with its extensive sea-coast
and its three navigable rivers, will allow her
to do.
Nassau and Hesse-Cassel will open free
road to the Rhine and the French fronter-a
consideration of no small Importance with
reference to contingencies that may arise in
| the future.
Hence, we see it is the interests of Prussia,
as a great power, that determine these steps
of territorial aggrandizement The Confede-
ration of North Germany means Prussia, and
not much else. We shall not be at all sur
prised to find, ere long, that the people of
Saxony are quite as hostile in Prussia's eyes
as those OF Hanover are now assumed to be-
Then a similar fate will overtake them.

WAGES As AFFECTED BY THE CURRENCY.-Hon.
Alnassa Walker, of Massachusetts, in his work on
The Science of Wealth, has an interesting chan
ter on the manner in which wagss, rents inter
ests and profits are relatively affected by cur
rency initiation. His estimates are that wages, on
an average, take The country through, have ad-
vanced fifty per cent; that is, where workman
got dollar before the war, he gets one dollar and
half now; where he got two before he now re-
eeives three dollars. Interest be calculates, has
advanced generally Ton all except permanent
mortgagesl twenty per cent; that is, from six to
seven and threetenths. Rents, he estimates have
advanced generally to an equal extent with inter
est, though he says that in commercial circles
they have advanced more. Profits have advanced
one hundred per cent; that is, have doubled
This last is low estimate. After this statement,
he inquiries: What is the result Of this? Who
wins in consequence of this rise in wages, rents,
interest and profits occasioned by the initiation Of
the currency? Prices rise to an unprecedented
height, say 120 per cent? The result to the
labOrer he states as follows; Where his wages
were $500 per annnm they are now $3.50. This.
last sum is laid out in commodities, and brings
him $204 "a worth, as reckoned at prices before
the rise. So. from $500 deduct what he actually
gets, 1904 So, and we find his loss to be 500 49, or
nearly one-thrd of his real wages, or what they
were before the expansion

Sunday afternoon a man named Peter Kelly
was arrested on Common street, by officer Ryan,
for drunkenness and disorderly conduct In max
ing the arrest Mr.. Ryan lost fnger-KelIy got
one Of Mr.. Ryan's fingers in his mouth and
nearly chewed it off. Mr.. Ryan was armed with a
revolver but abstained from using it while he was
undergoing the torture Of this cannibaism Of his
prisoner. When brought to the police station,
Kelly was yetferocious. He claimed to be a dis
charged soldier from the federal army. If he
was such, it might be said, without hazard of con
tradiction, he was not good soldier. He was
put in cell with several other prisoners In his
cell he was still pugnacious. He had that height
and seeming bone and muscle-six feet two or
three inches high-which deter most men from en-
tering into conflict with such persons. In his cell
he had the temerity to say he could whip any
id rebel alive, and the challenge provoked a
little Irishman, not half his weight, to give him,
in the briefest space, one of the most beautiful
thrashings Goliath ever got.

A Loca1, Item from Plaguemines.

From Mr.. j. R. Ducros, who has just returned
from Plaquemines we learn that the prospect for
good crop Of sugar in thatparish is magnificent
Only about onehalf of the ground that was once
cultivated is now planted, but the yield from this
promises TO be of the most valuable character.
Crossing at Algiers and proceeding down the
river to the road known as the Cut-of you come
to the Stackhouse plantation at least three miles
long and the cane from this point is excellent.
According to the statement of intelligent planters
the crop of Dr. Wilkinson, about thirty miles be-
low Algiers, is good par ercelleace.
The place this side Of it, Mr.. Marins, has also a
very fine crop, and thirty acres of new ground
which he has now under cultivation is thought to
be the finest in Louisiana, L. is estimated that
they will produce something like 25oO nonpds Of
sugar, against about 1000 for the ordinary Weld
At the stackhouse ploltation the sugar cane is

Five deaths from yellow fever were reported
yesterday.

DISCOVERY OF CONCEALED MoNEY.-A singular
discovery was recently made by girl employed
in the Wisconsin paper mill at Milwaukee, illus
trating forcibly the old adage that 9" what is one
persons loss is another persons gain.n While
one of the girls sorting lot of rags which had
been recently shipped to Milwaukee from this city,
she came across an old army knapsack, which, in
tearing to pieces revealed package of 81 900 in
greenbacks which had been sewed between the
lining and the outside. 1t has been customary at
the mill when money is found concealed to take
it to the office of the works aud surrender it to the
proprietors, the finder receiving a liberal reward
But the fortunate. finder of the above mentioned
package, instead of complying with this custom
retained $1,000 of the money, and gave to her en-
ployers only 5000 of the money. An old Knap-
sack is rather a singular place to secrete. such a
large amount of money, but it probably has his
tory explanatory of the reason which will never be
revealed,
The owner probably fell in battle, and his KNAPP
sack laying on the field was condemned as worth
less, and the money intended to alleviate the sor-
rows of the future, in the above remarkable man
ner fell into the hands of strangers. Chicago rags
are decidedly profitable.
