Asa Packer, whom the Democrats of Penn
syIyania have Just nominated for Governor
would hardly do to run on the same ticket WIN
Gen. Rosecrans. whom the Democrats OF
the next State Westward are trying
their worst to support with show OF cheer
fulness. He is man reputed wise, because OF
n faculty OF looking wise and keeping
quiet. In Tammany Hall last Summer
the Pennsylvania Democrats tried long
to persuade the Convention that he was
q fit man for the Presidency, but
with very Indifferent success. They are
not now likely to have any better luck in try
ing to persuade their own people of his fitness
for the GOvemOrship. We are inclined to
think that they have not made the most
of their opportunities. Gen. George w. Cass,
who fell only 10 votes behind MIR. Packer on
the first ballot, would have been much
stronger candidate. The platform is of the
old sort. We read that the Negro should
not have the ballot, that our finances
are in dreadfully bad way, and will
never be better until Democrats handle the
money, that the Reconstruction policy leads to
Imperialism, and that our taxation is tyranny.
On tie whole, the candidate and the platform
fit well together, and both are exceedingly
well adapted for defeat.

three thousand miles long, or by nearly
q thousand miles the longest cable in the
world. We shall welcome its operation, as
soon as the compliance with tho conditions
of our Government shall allow opera
tions to begin, not for the sake OF
those who brought it here, or always
for such communications as may reach us
under cover of the French Empire, but as
providence in spite of those who made IT, ana
as an addition to the sum of our business I'D
critics. The dreams of former men were never
so abstracty realized as in day when we
possess the mighty conveniences of two great
Ocean Cables, Pacific Railroad, and Suez
Canal. Puck may put his girdle round inc

Among the steps taken at the recent meet
ing of the Trustees of the Cornell University
to increase the teaching force of the lnstitu-
ton was the election Of Mr.. Bayard Taylor
to q nonresident ProfessOrship. Mr.. Taylors
chair, of which he has already signified his
acceptance, is that of German Literature lie
will enter upon his duties during the coming
academic year, and will deliver next March
series of lectures on the most eminent authors
produced by Germany since the middle OF the
eighteenth century. Mr.. Taylors knowledge OF
the whole range of German literary history Is
not exceeded by that of any living foreigner.

The hints which we receive of the Minis
terial reconstruction in France give us still but
an uncertain idea of what the EmperOr's Gov
eminent is likely to be. NJ. ROuher has left
his seat in the Cabinet for sure but only to
preside over the Senate. Lavalette will 60 to
England, and there is story that DrOuyn de
Lhuys will enter the modifed-we can scarcely
say the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. Magne, FORBADE, Adj
miral Rigault and Marshal Mel, who hold the
strings of money, work, and war in the Impe-
rial Administration, keep their portfolios, so
that, after all, the Emperor has pulled down
very little of his edifce. NJ. Olivier, it is
said, abstains from the Ministry; but we are
not sure that he has been invited to join it.

A cool British warrior, by name McCrca,
and Lieutenant Colonel of the Royal Artillery,
having been for some time quartcred at New
foundland, has published n book of experiences
and observations, in which he says: owe lost

power on the American continent when Lee,

Here is q warning to all persons who think
to improve the compilations which nature has
given them. One George Neal Of Truftonbor-
ough, Mass, being DESTROYS of improving his
personal beauty, was in the habit Of taking
" Fowler's Solution which is a preparation of
arsenic. An overdose last week finished George
Neal As the use of arsenic in one form or an
other, as q beautiier, has become altogether
too common, it may be well for young men
and women to contemplate the sad fate OF
George Neal who certainly has not finally sue
ceeded in permanently improving his complexion.

The Cable barely gives us news when it
presents the terms under which the Catholics
will probably decline the concurrent endOw-
ment. We do not see how they can do other
wise in justice to the patriotism of their
countrymen and to their religious loyalty and
dignity. To accept the endowment is to make
both Patrick and st. Patrick iDglorious pen
aOners of the crown. The mercenary unfair
ness of the concurrent proposition is instanced
in the fact that Catholics will have but seven
shillings and half per head Of the endowment,
whereas EpiscOpalans will receive twenty
pounds. Thus the Catholics have another
reason for rejecting British alms-a reason
bound to prevail in the land of Fenianism, and
by its prevalence save the liberal ministry
from any perplexity on the Church question.

We do MT think it exactly fair for The Journal
of Commerce to abuse the California Democracy
on account Of the antiquity and untimely medic
valism of their platform. They are the spared
remnant They maintain the ancient faith.
They keep watch and ward over the venerable
and respectable heresies of the dear old body.
How often do we read in the newspapers reso-
lutions of the Democracy, beginning: RE
"sOluGd That, now as ever the Democratic
"party reaflirms the principles to which it has
"adhered since the formation of the Govern
"ment;" or, "ReSOlued, That we abide by the
faith so ably expounded and enforced by JEFF
"ferson, Jackson, and all the other sages and
statesmen of our party )" OF, ReSolued, That
ave are now, as we have ever been, the un-
/" flinching opponents of this, that, and the
"other.o The California Democrats were per-
fectly right in sticking to these precedents.

Somebody observes that the sects of Donny-
brook are never Mt peace but when they are
fighting and they are always fighting for the
sake of peace. Somebody else, we think it
was DR.. Maginn, depicted body of "skrim-
"maging" Irishmen fighting like divils for
Cancellation and hatin' each other for the love
"of Cod" To say that an annual storm of
shllaahs has descended in Ireland is only to
say that the battle of the Boyne has been cell
ebrated once moro on both sides and with
customary spirit We have grown to accept
the yearly war of Orange and Green, Of Cath
olics and Protestants, as a sort of peace quarrel
and pious feud 1t adds nothing to the force
of the remark that Ireland is still politically
Disconnected, and that Fenianism is not dead

no member of the Court had ever
issued such writ outside his own circuit,
to arguments on the cOnstitutionality of
the Reconstruction laws, and discussion as
to whether Mississippi is in state of war or
peace. The reasonings were possibly able, al
though the report of them is not. The Chief.
Justice has reserved his decision.

We have seen one or two complaints that
our lists of income returns for some points on
Staten Island were incomplete. We can only
say that in this, as in the other cases, we
engaged Internal Revenue officers to prepare
for us careful transcripts of their official lists,
and these we printed as we received them.
If any errors exist, they are the errors of the
official records. If they do not prove to be
also errors that have cost the Treasury dear,
we shall be better satisfied.

POLITICAL MACHINERY.

Comments by The Tribune.
We insist on the undenicd fact that the job
bers who betrayed and disgraced us at the late
Session were all ground out by this very
"party machinery in rural localities" which
The Times finds so perfect. 1t is not the cir
cumstance that ga dozen or more bad men
",Oore its colors at Albany that damaged the
Republican party it is the fact that they were
its chosen representatives-that its "coloIS
elected them-that bothcrs us. Now we give
notice that they can't come this dodge next
Fall-that getting nominated in Republican
districts and getting elected will, for them, be
very different things. We understand The Times
TO be with us in this matter which is an I'M
pTovement for which We are duly thankful
We shall be very glad to do what we can
toward improving party management IN tins
City; for the need of such improvement Is
very urgent. But Primary Meetings, and
Nominating Committees or Conventions thereby
constituted cannot be relied on to secure the
desired end. The stream cannot rise higher
than its fountain. Such men as Hamilton
Madison, Webster, Clay, Calhoun, Niles, were
never sought out as candidates by nominating
conventions as now constituted. These ar'
elected by the moncy of some one who wants
a nomination, and is willing to pay for it; ant
he is too often one who knows how hc is t.
| get his money back with usury. If we are tC
| have real reform, we must change our system
of selecting candidates.
