Election Returns from a Radical Source.

NEW YORK September 13.-The Tribune
of this morning says: THE election in
Maine yesterday resulted in substantial
Republican triumph. We have returns
of the vote for Governor from one hun-
dred and ten towns-nearly one-half OF
the State-which give a majority of 5000
for Sidney Parham, the Republican cam
didste for Governor, against 1912 majority
for Chamberlain last year. We judge
that be is elected by 5000 to 1000 majority,
though the voting has been so eccentric
that il may be hazardous to attempt close
calculation "a to the majority. The
Legislatnre sois largelynb Republican,
though the Democrats may have gained
q few mem Oers of the House, and possibly
one or two Senators. The people seem TO
have been voting mainly for q. 8. Sena-
tor-the contest being between Governor
Chamberlain and Hon. Lot M. morrill,.
How that question stands IL is quite im-
possible 10 say at, present, though our
Portland correspondent says that Morrill,
has the Senate. All i've of our candi-
dates for Congress are elected-the only
serious contest being against Mr.. Lynch,
in the First District, who is reelected by
about 1900 majority" .,l

Our English friends have been very slow in
adopting our street railways, but the Directors
of the first one laid down in London have
suggested an improvement in their manage
ment which we should like to see adopted in
this country. The first cars say at
o'clock in the mOrning-are run not only
more frequently, but at cheaper rates
than in the less busy hours of the
day. Thus the artisans who go to work at
sunrise are charged two cents per trip, while
the merchant who rides to his business at
eight OF nine o'clock has to pay four cents
This rate after prevailing through the
day is again reduced at sunset, and the
laboring classes find cheap transportation
home again. OF course, the London Street
Railway Company does MT do this of its own
accord. 1t is compulsory accommodation there,
as it ought to be here. If Tweed and Com
pany had the welfare of the working classes
really at heart instead of that of the railway
corporations, who rob and tax them without
mercy, they would require similar regulations
for the street lines in New-YOTk.

murdered in them be needed to give zest and
point to a newspaper article. But for the men
who murdered it, these prominent men OF tne
"a time, these husbands, brothers, lovers" VINO
first debased this woman, the only duty is TO
purge the streets of the abomination that they
NAV walk there comfortably with the women
dearest to them.
So much for our latest modern stories OF tle
social evil. There is another we remember OF
how, long time ago, men with as Jealous
regard for decency as these husbands and
brothers brought before the Great Master o
woman taken in adultery, in the very act. 1t
was upon the men alone that His rebuke 1eii'
swift and searching: He2that is without SIN
among you, let him first throw stone at
"her,n until they, being convicted OF their
consciences, crept out and left Him alone. But
to the woman He only said, "Neither do
condemn thee. Go and sin no more" we
only wish to point out the difference between
the law of our custom and courts, and that OF
the great Law-giver.
New-York tribune., 1870-05-26

The amendment offered by Mr.. Drake to the
Diplomatic Appropriation bill, to prohibit the
admission of pardon or amnesty as testimony
in the Court of Claims to show the loyalty OF
a claimant, ought to be adopted without fail.
Because the nation chooses to pardon Rebel
his oflense is no reason why it should
also repay him losses incurred on account of
his misdeeds The estimate of S1OOOO,OOO as
the amount of claims which pardoned Rebels
have made and will make against the Govern
ment for losses during the war if the amend
ment is not adopted, we are positive, is far
below the actual amount. If not adopted, we
shall have to pay for half the captured cotton
taken during the war.

The opposition to the bill to revive the navi-
CATION interests develops more strongly as the
debate continues Not content with killing
the subsidy clauses, the members from the
interior have determined to kill the proposition
aiding coasting vessels, by charging that it
subsidies an interest hostile to that of
the railways. The present prospects are
that the bill will be killed and the Committee
instructed to study anew the causes Of the
decay of American commerce as seen from
the point Of view of the gentlemen from the
West Senator Chandler has a scheme for the
revival of commerce which he proposes to lay
before Congress in speech to be delivered

rous side of Gen. O'Neils ridiculous blunder is
too painful to be laughed at. The folly of
this charlatan has cost thousands of working
people the last dollar of their savings, and
perhaps some poor fellows their lives.
1t has covered good cause with
disgrace 1t has postponed the liberation
of Ireland. 1t has degraded Irishmen in the
estimation of many Of their fellow-citizens,
who will perhaps overlook the difference be-
tween the patriotism of the people and the
imbecile vanity of the leaders. These are the
sad results of the last Fenian invasion. we
can only hope that the rank and file may get
home quickly and sound, and save their car

Here is case which may afford a timely illus
tration: At Canton, ILL.,, on the 18th inst, man
named Cottrell was brought before magis-
trate, charged with offering personal violence
to young woman. The Justice heard the
evidence, and in the exercise of the discretion
which the law fully recognizes, for want of
probable cause to believe the'prisoner guilty,
declined to hold him for trial. Upon this, an
Indignation meeting of the citizens was con-
yened, and it was determined to hang C0ttrell
if they could find him-which they couldn't.
Is it not evident that these worthy men, who
wanted to commit murder in yindicatiOn
of the outraged law, were laboring under a
paroxysmal insanity grown epidemicali OF
course, if they had been brought to bar for
hanging Cottrell, they would have pleaded
that they did not know what they were doing;
and, according to modern practice, we do not
see why the plea would not have been i'm
pregnable. Witnesses in plenty might have
been called, who would have testified that
the lynchers seemed to be beside them
selves; that they uttered the most
furious CALCULATIONS; that their eyes were
bloodshot with virtue (and whisky. "What,
pray, gentlemen of the juIy'-s0 the
attorney for the prisoners might have argued

treason, and to render men unObservant of
"moral distinctions, as the contemplation of

gentlemen; my clients were lifted above ord-
mary responsibility; they were the inspired
champions of justice; they were unable to
"restrain themselves; and they should go free

been, "Served him rightw

months and it is dreadful to think of the
number of people they may shoot or stab.

New-York tribune., 1870-05-26
he has to do is to go crazy at the shortest
notice, and avenge it.

The N +. Labor Reform League has been
holding q Convention in Boston, and some OF
the members thereof have been talking with
great deal more loOseness than logic. For in
stance. arose an eminent feminine financer, to
whom is the name of Mrs. Cora Syme, who
said that "she went for reputation as she
"understoOd it. She would pay the debt to the
"uttermOst farthing but repudate the swihdle
"upon which it was founded" We have spent
twenty-four hours in trying to comprehend
what this means; but all we understand is that
there is to be "repudiatiOn" of some kind, and
against that we wish most decidedly to be
counted in." Then came a Mr. John Oryls,
who thought that "when the amount of inter
"est paid equals the principal, then the loan
"is cancelled; from which we infer that how
ever much Mr.. Orvis may desire to borrow
money, he will hardly find anybody benevo-
lently verdant enough to lendit to him, unless,
indeed, he makes "the reputation" of his
present financial notions a part Of the con-
tract. While the Convention was digesting
Mr.. Orviss political economy, up got MIR.
John Wetherbee, broker, of State st, who said
"he didn't see how poor man who had in
"yested thousand dollars in the dark days
"Of the war was to have justice done him by
"a reputation of his lOan.n Mr.. Wetherbee
also admitted that "cOst the limit Of price
was "a very pretty sentiment; but if it cost
"John Wetherbee two days time to make a
"pair of shoes, and John Orvis only one day,
Everybody would buy of the latter and no
"body of the former, who would be obliged
"to ask double price, Altogether Mr. Weth-
erbee appears to have made one of those COM
mOn-sensble speeches which must have been
all Greek to Mrs. Cora Syme, Miss Jennie Col
lins, and the other feminine prophets OF
good time coming who were in attendance.
Being a broker in State-st., Mr. Wetherbee
had them at disadvantage.

THE IBERIIN UNION.

At the time when the B0urbOns were eX-
PEELED from Spain, the idea of Union Oh
Spain and Portugal, under the ancient PENN
sular name of Iberia, had many warm friends
in SPAIN The endeavors of the Progressstas
TO place the Spanish crown upon the head OF
a member of the royal house of Portugal
showed that the idea was favored by the party
which had considerable plurality in the Con-
stitucnt COrtes. Prim, in particular, was sup
posed to be an enthusiastic believer IN IDeriah
unity. In Portugal, on the other hand, the
idea had no powerful organization III It's 1avor,
and popular opinion manifested ltseH SO
strongly against it that the agitation Tor a
time subsidized even in Spain.
For about a year the Spanish statesmen
have had their attention so fully absorbed by
internal troubles that no one has apparently
thought of reviving the agitation. Sull, the
Iberian party has so many friends in Spaln
that there is nothing incredible or even I'M
probable in the announcement that Pr1m has
entered into intrigues with prominent P0r-
tuguese statesman for the purpose OF making
Joint Iberian movement. Nor would Marshal
Saldanha be unlikely to be selected by Prlm
rs his fttest associate. Though Sadanha has
never been yet known as the steadfast cham
pion of the Iberian or any other idea, he has,
on the other hand, never hesitated to use any
auxiliary for satisfying his boundless ambition,
and he enjoys as great an influence upon the
masses of the Portuguese people as any other
statesman. 1t would appear from tO-days dis
patches that the unpOpularity of the scheme in
Portugal is still as great as ever Saldanha
processes his everlasting devotion to the inde-
pendence of the Portuguese monarchy; but as
Saldanha has always been ready to profess
everlasting devotion to anything that favored
his personal schemes, this only proves that he
deems the plan of union as yet too distasteful
to be avowed. He may bring it forward again
at a more favorable opportunity.
New-York tribune., 1870-05-26

We are now told that there is convent
of monks in Iowa following the rule of
st. Bernard. after certain time" it il
said, "they take upon themselves vow
never to speak aloud and a number have
kept that VOW for twenty years" 1t has
been more than once intimated that Speech is
Silver, but that Silence is Golden; and, as
step toward return to this kind at least OF
specie payments, we would suggest that this
religious house in Iowa might lend one or two
of its very dumbest members to Congress.
Seated in either Chamber, and raying out what
Sidney Smith called brilliant flashes of ST.
lence," they would be to every gaTulous
legislator a perpetual example and constant
admOnition. We calculate, if such monitors
could have been present in the Senate during
the Georgia debate, that it would have saved
the country at least a million of dollars.

Bankers and the students of finance gener-
ally will be interested in the brief but clear
synopsis and explanation, to be found on our
second page, of the Bill of the Banking and
Currency Committee, which is the next finan-
cial measure to be submitted to the House
The provision which issues the new currency
authorized on the basis of Al per cent bonds and
requires the old banks, after time, to take
these lower priced bonds in lieu of the 6per cents
which they now hold, appears to us a measure
of the highest Importance TO the Government,
and not unjust to the banks
