Colonel Dick johnson, of Kentucky (who was
promoted to the Vice Presidency ON the certia-
cate Of having in battle killed Tecumseh), was
Of the opinion that the White House was too
responsible place to be sought for, but toe
grand position to be declined. The great
philanthropist, George Peabody, with moro
money than q horse can draw, seems to be Of
the same opinion. At seventy-two years Of ago,
speaking Of the Presidency, he says -" We're
but forty, and could be elected to the posi-
ton, not a. . partisan, but by united people,
should like it." And why not! Almost any
philosopher would like it on these conditions.
But, says Mr.. Peabody, looking around for .
candidate, "if the choice Of President Of ths
United States were LEFT to me that ONCE should
fall upon Mr.. Winthrop" robert @. Winthrop,
Of Massachusetts,, for ono term In Congress
Speaker Of the House,. Doubtless Mr.. VIM
throp would al the ONCE with dignity and de-
oorum, and Is an exceedingly nice man for .
small tea party !" bat unfortunately he sticks
to those old knee breaches and shoe buckles
and the bred Scott decision, which were In the
fashion before the Deluge; and that Is enough
for Mr. Winthrop.
In the next place It appears that Mr.. Pea,
body has "the most unbounded confidence IN
the wisdom and ability of Secretary McCullochs
whom be had learned to esteem a. . noble man
and far seeing statesman" Now, from . suo-
cessful 6nancier like Mr.. Peabody this IL no
small compliment Il must be remembered
however, that even the shrewdsst banker Is 90
casionally caught. - was Mr. Peabody HIMSELF
when he ventursd . million or two in those
aforesaid Mississippi State bonds. Therefore
even his opinion Of Mr.. McCulloch must b
taken with some grains Of salt Mr.. Peabody
returns to England with large stock Of new
facts and information on our political and
financial Affairs; but his ideas Of Winthrop and
McCullooh show that he has yet much to learn,

favor, If we may Judge by the fact that at the
Barnstable Petty Sessions two ladies were
recently elected parish overseers-Mrs. Slo-
combe, for the parish of Brittadon, and Mrs.
Crang for that Of Bratton Fleming. If a
woman may be queen, why not parish over
seer! John Bull has at length asked himself
this question and answered it by electing Mrs.
Slocombe and Mrs. Crang. AS in duty bound,
Mr.. Henry Ward Beecher and the other
cisatlantic champions of women's rights are
delighted. They can exultingly say, Who
shall contradict in this election the prophetic
revelation Of that good time coming when

Imperialism in Mexico is rapidly approach
ing its finale. Our important special despatch
from New Orleans to-day announces that the
liberals have gained decisive victory over the
enemy, and that Miramon. the distinguished
leader of the imperial forces is dead. The
battle was the third Of series Of desperate
sorties made by Miramon's army, with the pur-
pose of forcing their way through the left wing
Of the liberals. In each encounter they were
defeated with heavy loss. The object was doubt
less to open way for Macmillan to Tam
pico, where the United States gunboat Tacony
still remains; thus afording the Emperor and
such of his followers as could accompany him
an opportunity to escape to the States. The
result Of the defeat and death Of Miramon has
been the fall Of Queretaro, which is now occu-
pied by the liberal forces. Macmillan was not
found in the city, and the supposition is that
he has fed from Queretaro with small party
Of his followers; but how, or in what direction,
or whether he still remains secreted in the city,
does not yet appear. Enough Is known, how
ever, to show that the imperial cause in Mexico
is at an end.

Mrs Julia G. Tyler, widow Of ex-President
John Tyler, has just met with heavy rebuff in
the Circuit Court Of Richmond county Staten
Island), the subject in issue being the will Of
her mother, by which she is given all the pro-
perty involved (e1s0O00 in value), to the ex-
clusion of the contesting brother, David L.
Gardiner. The jury have decided, first, that
Mrs. Gardiner ct the time of making the will
was not Of sound and disposing mind, memory
and understanding secondly, that said will
was procured by Julia G. Tyler by fraud or
undue influence thirdly, that the property Of
deceased was not disposed Of - expressed In
the instrument purporting to be VIII and
fourthly, that Julians Gardner died intestate.
This verdict will probably hold good, mas
much as, upon an appeal from the Supreme
Court Of this city and county, the Court Of
Appeals has pronounced this will Of Juliana
Gardiner invalid-nothing more than blank
sheet Of paper.
This Is a remarkable case. After Vice Presi-
dent John Tyler, an ambitious widower,
became President, among the beauties Of his
social receptions was Miss Julia Gardiner, Of
New York, VINO, having vanquished the Cap
tain" with glance Of her eye, became In 1s43,
in the regular order Of events, wife Of his Elk
cellency and mistress Of the White House.
With Mr.. Tyler's retirement in March, 1s45. he
moved down with his family to his estate Of
Sherwood Forest, near williamsburg, vir-
ginia, and there he had 90 prospsred that
when the rebellion broke out his possessions
included not only charming wife, but seven
children, some twelve or fifteen hundred acres
Of nne land, sixty odd fat and healthy negro
slaves and horses and mules in proportion.
The rebellion carried Oh the master, turned
loose hin slaves, laid waste hh estates, brought

James E. English, respectable citizen Of

State at the last election by q combination Of
circumstances connected with the local AFFAIR."
of the Commonwealth, prominent among whicE
were the labor question and the issue made by
the nomination Of unfit candidates for Congress
by the republicans. James E. English Is :
democrat, and, with others of his party, hs
profted by the blunders of his political oppo-
nents. He enjoyed the advantage of NOS
having been heretofore classed among ths
copperheads Of the Connecticut Seymour
school, and this materially contributed to his
success But his first message to the Legisls-
ture Of his State, delivered at Hatford
yesterday, indicates that he entirely miscon-
strues the signi6cation Of his unexpected TIL
umph He devotes the greater portion Of thaS
document to review Of national affairs andSS
carried away by the unusual occurrence Of the
Inauguration Of . democratic Governor IN 3

the rebellion, maintains the rights Of the South,
assumes that the war was Q failure, and
denounoes the legislation Of the ThirH-ninth
Congress O. " series Of usurpations and infrao-
lions Of the constitution" eventuating in placing

II matters very little, probably, how many
essays Governor English may write upon thess
WORKOUT topics. The work of reconstruct

Of the United States, viii probably 60
steadily on despite the ratings Of tho
Executive Of one out Of twenty loyal
States against it. But the message Of thu
Governor of Connecticut is significant as tend
ing to show the singular faulty Of the old
democratic politicians, who refuse to open their
eyes to the great events Of the day, and per-
sist in cropping darkly in the blind alleys Of
State rights and "the world before the food."'
The people who keep pace with the progress
of the age will learn from this curious docu-
ment the hopelessness Of endeavoring to build
up national party on the remnants Of the old
democracy. Tbs politicians Of that decayed
organization are joined to their idols, and they
will be swept out Of sight in the great issues Of
the future, and sent to join the Feejee mermaid.

Moro Trouble Absat the Excise Law.
District Attorney Morris, Of Kings county,
has written very earnest letter to Mr.. Bliss,
law oflcer Of the Excise Commissioners, in the
shape Of protest and . warning against the
form Of application required for retail liquor
license. Mr.. Morris pronounces this formula
illegal, tyrannical and absurd, and says "if
these humiliating and tyrannical conditions
are insisted upon they will and ought to be
hurled back in the teeth Of the Commissioners
with contempt and detestation." He charges,
in short, that the Commissioners in demanding
this form Of application for liquor license are
going beyond the Excise law, and that any
man who submits to such conditions IL unfit to
have license. We presume that the approach
ing Constitutional State Convention will put
all this matter Of liquor laws and excuses
within reasonable and well defined limits but,
In the meantime, the zeal Of the Excise Com
missiones ought mot to outrun their lawful
authority. The Excise law, within III plain
provisions, IL hard enough upon offenders, and
sometimes, II harshly enforced, operates very
severely and unfairly. There il no excuse,
then, on the part Of the Excise Commissioners
to 60 beyond tho limit Of the law; and II they
have done 90, as represented by Mr.. Morris,
they ought 10 repair the blunder and its
Injustice ct once.
