OF all that could be seen. 7 say. it now,
as J wrote It then, with sickened heart,
that we have'the most corrupt Govern.
ment in the world. It is run by rings.
There Is no moneyed interest in the land
that is without its ring in Washington.
They fill the hotels, throng the avenue,
and crowd the lobbies. The old Greek,
with his tabled lantern, would die ex.
hausted IN his search for one honest man.
L would exhaust my hour and your pa

railroad rings, the land d-jobbing rings,
the Indian Bureau rings, whiskey rings,
the protection rings-that branch off in
every conceivable direction. And they
were intriguing, caucussing, boring, and,
through wine and women, batting with.
out cessation.
I do not wish to be understood as
charging that majority of our Repre-.
sentatives in Congress are dishonest men.
On the contrary, 1 was surprised to find
that, living in this atmosphere and under
these influences, there were SO many
pure and upright men. But will say,
without fear Of successful contradiction,
that adding the incapables to the rogues
they made the majority. What bet

selection? The question is no longer.

friend to his country?" It is, on the
contrary, els he duly nominated by nv

principles?"
Not the least disheartening part of all
this is to be found in the utter indiffer-
ence with which the public at large re-
gard all this. 1t is no longer shame to
steal. Il has ceased to be dishonor to
defraud. 1 saw Senators, who came to
Washington with scarcely money enough
to pay boarding house bills, rolling over
the street in splendid equipages, and en-
tertaining society in palatial residences.
They are now millionaires, and not only
tolerated, but followed, hattered, sought
and sued by men and women who would
be honest were it the fashion to affect
that virtue; and if you turn from men
who have made their fortunes out OF
their places, it is to stare at men who
bought their way in. These Senatorial
chairs are put up at auction, and knocked
down to the highest bidders. The long
est purse brains the opponent, and the
Hon. Ingot or the Hon. Greenback
stalks in, with just brains enough TO make
up, through sale of votes, the money
he has expended in securing his seat.

The NEWPORT LIoNEss.-M Ida
Lewis, the young woman who saves ship
wrecked mariners at Newport, r. l., has
become such ioness that last week she
had, one day, 100 visitors, and another
day $50. Of course, she has no time to
do anything except to receive those who
come to look at her. To crown all, it is
stated in the newspapers that ''some-
body. is engaged upon her autobio-
graphy." An autobiography written by
somebody else is certainly literary no.
velty, and ought to increase her fame.

Van Valkenberg into his own service at the
earliest practicable moment, as he needed Just
such q man.
The case, we are told, has become so mixed
up on account of the injunctions and coun-
ter-iniunctions issued by different courts that
it is impossible to tell how the contending par
ties stand, although it is presumed that Fisk
has thus far rather got the worst Of it..
We have no particular interest in this dis
graceful squabble, and it is only worth al
luding to as an Illustration of the corruption
of the Judiciary in New York. The judges in
New York city, and many of them throughout
the State are regularly in the employ of stock
iobbers like this man Fisk and all the pow
erful machinery of the law is put in motion
whenever it is required to aid the schemes of
their masters. The judges lend them
selves in the most unblushing man
ner to the Vaccinations of these
rival railroad spectators, and matters have
come to such pass that great corporations
like the Pacific Railroad dare not locate them
selves in New York, but have to seek safety
and protection elsewhere. There is no telling
what we may come to, but it is a satisfac-
ton to know that the judiciary of Philadel-
phia has thus far kept itself above reproach;
and this fact being known the natural conse-
quence of The decentralization in New York
will be that an immense amount of business
interests will be forced to take refuge in this
city The Fisks of New York seem to be fast
killing the goose that lays the golden eggs,
but it is a consolation to know that their loss
is likely to be our gain.

The GREAT SOLAR ECLIPSE fulfilled the pro-
gramme laid down for it by the astronomers
to the very second, and full reports of the OBJ
servations of it in all sections of the country
will be found elsewhere. 1t is a matter of
sincere congratulation that the weather was
generally very favorable for the operations of
the astronomers and photographers, especially
along the track of tOtality. The great num-
Der of scientific men engaged in observing
the progress of the eclipse, and the exceed
ingly favorable circumstances under which
they have been enabled to make their obser-
vations, insure the solution of many delicate
and interesting problems which have hitherto
defied the savans.

FISK AGAIN IN THE FIELD.

ADMIRAL FISK, JR., is again before an admir-
no public as the chief mover in another
grand railroad fight in New York. This time
Erie is put in the background, and the Sus-
ouehanna Railroad is brought forward as the
prize for which the gallant Fisk has under
taken to wage battle. Fisk, however, ap-
pears to have met his match this time, as a
Mr.. Van Valkenburg, who was put in charge
of the office, not only refused to yield to Fisk,
but when the latter attempted to take forcible
possession, he was promptly expelled and put
in charge of an officer, who conducted him
forthwith to the station house. This decisive
action on the part of Van Valkenburg, so far
from offending the gallant Fisk, excited his
enthusiastic admiration, andhe complimented
his antagonist by telling him that he had been
in twenty such scrapes, and that never before
had he met man who dared to face him and
do his duty like Van Valkenburg, and he
therefore expressed an ardent desire to take

THE committee of the French Senate ap-
pointed to examine the SeRdtus c0Rsultum in
which the reforms proposed by Louis Napo-

Napoleonic regime and policy, the committee,
it is to be hoped, will experience but little
difficulty in arriving at ''the will of the

have engaged in the recent Carlist troubles
All who hereafter display hostility to the Gov
ernment will be prohibited from preaching
and presiding at the confessional. This was
the only course left open to the regency. If
the clergy were permitted to plot and counter
plot, the country could never be at peace.

creditors and family, and the necessity for
fulfilling duties which he deems sacred to
them deters him from accepting the Demo-

Springs last year, but his creditors and his
family have united to preserve intact what is
left Of his military reputation.

No. 629 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
Gents:-A persistent but unsuccessful effort was
made on the night OF May 29, 1869, to drill the
Bankers chest received from you a few month ago.
From facts that have come to our knowledge, it ia
evident that the attempt to open it was renewed on
Sunday evening following Finding all efforts to drill
1t useless, the effort was then made to break the
lock. The hammertng was heard by parties in the
neghborhood for several hours but supposing it to
arise from the railroad men replacing defective
rail, excited no alarm. The tools, with the exception
OF the drills, left 1t is evident that they were
not only prepared but perfectly familiar with the
construction OF your Chest
That they failed is another evidence that your
Bankers Chests are what you claim for them Bur-
glar-Proof.
