QUEEN VICTORIA AND THE IRIsIf
GHTRCNE


In the British Honse Of Commons on
the 18th inst, the reply of the Queen was
received to the petition of the House,
based on Mr.. Gladstone third resolution,
which prays her Majesty. to suspend an
action in the matter Of the temporalities
-oI the Irish Church establishment pend-
ing the final legislation Of Parliament
with a view TO its disendowment. 10
this reply. the Queen says that, @relying
on the wisdom Of the House, her Majesty
desires that her interest in the tempor-
alities Of the Irish Church viii not 10
any way prevent parliamentary legisla-
ton on the subject Il is understood
that this is a surrender by her Majesty
to the keeping Of Parliament Of all her
rights by appointment or interference
with the glebe lands or revenues Of Ire
land This is a graceful concession by
the Queen to the public sentiment Of
England, az manifested by the late votes
Of the House of Commons upon Mr.
GladstOne's resolutions, and is in consist
ency with the spirit Of the political toll
Grafton which is, known to be character
istic of the sovereign of Great Britain.
The Queen is generally understood to
act in all national matters under the
advice of her ministry, but as her min>
istry is opposed the resolutions of Mr..
Gladstone with reference to the discs
adjustment of the Irish Church, the
credit of the step she has just taken
would seem to belong to herself person.

nature have proved wiser than the craft
of politicians, and Mr.. Disraeli would do
well to yield to the liberal pressure which
is thus brought to bear upon him from
above and below 1t was expected that
Mr.. Gladstone would bring in a bin to

additional appointments Fl the Irish

Gen. Forrest was in Columbia few days
since, and the Herald says:
He told some very amusing and enter
tanning anecdotes and incidents of the war,
to the great delight ofthe attentive listeners,
who gathered around the hotel door TO get
a glimpse at the old war-horse. While the
General was amusing the crowd, he was
introduced TO one Of the Metropolitan
Policemen OF Nashville, by the name Of
Barr. Says the General 81 believed

General Winfield S. Hancock.

The large vote received by General Hancock in
the Democratic Convention on Wednesday
proves that the industrious efforts of his ad-
vocates and friends had not been fruitless,
For some time past they have been making
active exertions in his favor, and among other
agencies employed, pamphlet was exten-
sively circulated in all quarters likely to exert
an influence over the National Convention,
which purported to be biographical sketch
of General Hancock's life and public
services, and which set forth IN glowing
terms the record of his valorous achievements
during the war, and introduced quotations
from his orders and letters while he was sta
toned at New Orleans, In command of the
Fifth Military District, to prove that he ad Is
the talents of an accomplished civilian to his
bravery ss a soldier. The vote on the
eighteenth ballot shows that he completely
won the hearts of the Southern Democracy by
his controversy with General Grant in regard
TO the execution of the Reconstruc-
ton laws, for he was sustained on that
ballot by the unanimous vote of Alabama, Ar
kansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Missls-
sippi, North Carolina, south Carolina, Texas,
and Virginia, which up to recent period con-
stituted the ten unreconstructed States. He
also received one vote from Delaware, four
and half Vote5 from Kentucky, six and a
half votes from Maryland, and seven votes
from Missouri, thus nearly sweeping the en-
tire tier of old slavehOlding States, with the
exception of Tennessee, which, SOLITARY and
alone" adhered to the desperate fortunes o
Andrew Johnson.

THURSDAY, JULY ., 1868.
The Lincoln Monument.

A NUMBER of gentlemen have been for several
years past quietly collecting sum for the
purpose OF erecting monument in our city to
the memory of the late President Abraham
Lincoln. For some time little has been heard
of the attempt, but the directors of the enter
prise have not been asleep. We understand
that recently meeting was held and 1t was
determined to receive proposals for the design
and size Of the statue. The reputation of
those who have the enterprise in hand for cor
rect taste makes it certain that the choice Of
the figure will be all that could be desired
But the selection of the site on which it shall
stand is one in which all the public cannot but
take deep interest. There are two positions
talked of. The one is in the centre
Of Washington Square. This site certainly
has it's advantages. 1t will greatly add to the
popularity and attractions of that now almost
deserted Square. 1t will afford a fine view
from all sides. The space around is clear, and
it would, without doubt, look extremely we'll
both as an ornament and an object of general
interest to that locality. But the other posi-
ton we think outnumbers in advantage
Washington Square. We refer to the centre
of Broad street, somewhere between Chestnut
and Market streets. There can be no doubt
but the true policy Of our city is to do all in
its power to make Broad street peculiarly the
street Of the city, ifnot Of the country. Natu-
rally we have much to aid us in such an
enterprise. The street itself is bread
and most exoellently situated. 1t
requires now but some judioious
additions to make it pre-eminently the Ameri-
can Boulevard. One of the additions would un-
doubtedly be furnished in the location of the
monument in the middle of the street, and at
the same time in the middle of the city. Such
q selection is extremely common abroad. Paris
and London both of them have such statues
erected directly in the middle of the highway,
where all the world can see them. They give
effect to the street at present either from
above or below, and at the same time display
with singular excellence the science of sculp-
turing. If the monument was to be placed in
the square, it would not be seen by many Of
the visitors to our city. 1t should be out Of
the ordinary tour of travel. But in Broad
street every eye would enjoy its proper
tions. In whatever light we view it, We think
that Broad and Chestnut, or opposite Penn
Squares, is the best site. We merely throw
out the suggestion to the committee, feeling
sure that they will both select the best artistic
place an enduring monument to the memory
Of the man whom all acknowledge pure
patriot and Union martyr.

For President, Horatio Seymour.

VI - EObiuChtS hOEhttO COyhOuIs
OK the I'D ballot, the National Democratic
Convention unanimously nominated Horatio
Seymour, of New York, as the candidate for
the Presidency. By so doing in case Mr.
Seymour accepts, the most absurd oontrado-
tion ever presented by any political party is
presented by the Democracy. They nominate
their own presiding ofioer-a lack Of taste
most astonishing. They nominate mau who
has again and again declined. But the old
story Of Cesar refusing the crown is made
modern. History repeats itself. They nominate
man who has expressed views on the most
vital issue-that Of fnance-which are dia-
metrically opposed to those of the platform.
They must, indeed, have come upon days of
great "public calamity" as Vallandigbam
said, wien they must stultify themselves by
inconsistencies so gross as to be a positive
insult to the intelligence of the American peo-
PIE. With such internal dissensions they can
hardly carry the States which voted for
Mcclellan. They have disgraced as we'll as
defeated themselves by their reckless disre-
gard of all show OF principle in nominating a
gold man on greenbaok platform.

Political FurV,

LET the people understand the sentiments
of the Democracy. At a large meeting
of representative men in New York, a
Colonel Yerger of Memphis, uttered the fol-
lowing speech, which needs no comment from
us -
"Tbat General Grant was now stepping boldly
toward throne and would drag his purple
mantle through the blood of such patriots as
those present. CA voice shouted, You bet.O L
am loyal said the speaker, to The Union that
our fathers fought for. but hate Union of
blood and plunder, Of oppression and tyranny,
Union headed by usurping cRbal called the
Congress of the United States. (Furiously.) l
hate it! / spit upon it! "a voice, Hit him
again.O come here TO ask protection from the
people of the North"
1t would be well for the indignant orators
who are so addicted to "spittiDg" an opposi-
tion sentiment, to remember the rebuff given
by Douglas Jerrod. AT one of the London
Clubs an excitable Tory was discussing politics
with an equally excitable Liberal. 81 detest
your principles" says Liberal. "Your doc,
trines are reasonable" says Tory, "and spit
upon Oliver Cromwell" "And l spit on
Charles l." "Waiter," exclaimed Jerrold
ringing; "waiter, spittoons for two" The
story is old, but may be useful during the
campaign.

Europe are perambulating extensively this
summer. Prince Amadeus, second son of the
King OF Italy, is going on a cruise. He will
touch first at Lisbon, and see his sister, the
Queen OF Portugal then, avoiding the French
ports, pass to the North Sea and the Baltic, and
have look at Norway, The Marquis of Has

his trip even beyond Constantinople. 1t is said
that the Prince has written to his cousin, tell.

him. 1t is scarcely likely, however, that the
Emperor will go as far as ConstantinopIe.
