MARRISBURC 1UCBBDAY ETESlSBi KOY. BEADING MATTES ON EYEBY PAGE. MUNCHAUSEN TIUjRMAN. "Weyleld as high a degree of respect to Aixbn G. Thurmah, of Ohio, as we find it possible to accord to any man of intellect who can jet remain a firm believer in the Democratic r'y That he possesses capacity in no ordinary degree all who know him mast admit.

But there is no comparison possible between hla inherent ability and his con tempt for the intelligence of others. He delivered a speech of congratulation to the Democrats of the Western Reserve after the election of his Un.le Allen, in which he had the temerity to say of the Democratic party "It has opposed property qualifications, epecial privileges, and unjust monopoly in all their forms. It has elevated the bumble, ameliorated the condition of the poor, disseminated education and welcomed to our shores the oppressed of the world. It is still at work to free mankind from oDnression. to improve the condition of labor, and to bless all men by a sybtem of equal and just laws.

Such is the Democratic principle, and a party like ours, that is founded upon it, must from Its very nature and constitution be a party of progress." To let such a mass of notorious historical falsehoods as these paEs without denial would be monstrous. But their very grossness has served as the offensive odor of the pole cat deters pur suit to prevent their exposure. If we did not know the intense convictions cf the man, we could not resist the conclusion that he was indulging in a malignant satire. But he is so besotted a partisan that this view Is impossible. He speaks what he really believes and he speaks with an authority to the Democratic mind now well nigh absolute.

It is therefore the more incumbent on all Republicans to hold up to richly deserved opprobrium the party he thus extols, and to show the utter falsity of his words, besause of his prominence. To his claim that the Democratic party haa opposed property qualifications, it is enough to say that it lost its character in aiming to retain by trick, device, policy, and at last war, the property qualification of representation by which the "three fifths" principle made property the main basis for a member of Congress. Its opposition to special privileges and unjust monopoly is exemplified by thecbarteritgavetothelllinois Central railway; a corporation in which Is engrafted that vicious principle of donating the public domain to aid private and corporate ereed in erecting a power fal and eternal danger to the public welfare through monopoly based on privileges at once special and outrageous. That it has welcomed to our shore the oppressed of other lands is true. But it is no less true that these "oppressed" foreigners have, under Democratic auspices, tuition and manipulation, been, transformed by fraud into our masters and have oppressed and plundered our commercial emporium to the very verge of ruin.

And if indignation did not smother mirth, the claim that the Democratic party bad "elevate! the humble, ameliorated the condition of the poor, and disseminated education," must excite unbounded merriment. Did not the Democratic party uphold, defend, and fight for slavery Did not slavery crush the humble, brutalize the poor, make education felony And so far as improving the condition of labor Is concerned did not slavery utterly debase labor? Does it not now seek to destroy that system of laws which elevates the workingman? And is it not the creature and tool of the Free Traders whose only point of political economy is to strike down Labor and exalt Commerce on the ruin of Productive Industry? And yet. this party, hanging in the gibbet of history as the emblem of all things oppressive of liberty, of labor, of the poor; this champion of ignorance; this torturer of educators we are assured by Mr. Thubman from its nature and constitution, "a party of progress Such impudence, such contempt for the common intelligence, such outrage on the general understanding, such falsification of past history and present action, is best illustrated by the potent fact, that this same Democratic party yesterday carried the day in Virginia triumphantly on the single claim that it was a "white man's party," ana was for making that state an example of bigotry, fanaticism, folly and retrogression 1 HACMAIIOX'S MESSAGE. The French National Assembly is again In session and President MacMa hon has communicated his views in a message, the language of which, if correctly reported, shows pretty clearly that he favors a strong government.

We infer from it that he will not accept a prolongation of his term unless something like dictatorial powers are conferred on him. A soldier, accustomed to command and obedience to the supremacy of his own will over all under him a courtier who has basked in the sunshine of Imperial power an aristocrat by education if not by birth, he has no confidence ia any government of limited powers, or in any way accountable to the people for its. actions. To him a free press, the exponent of popular sentiment, is a thorn, a terror, which he believes no government such as he desires can tolerate and stand, and which, if he consents to act longer as President, he desireB the Jjower to crusti, or so suDaue mat it shall be the mere echo of his sentiments, of all his public actions. Should he be invested with such powers as he evidently thinks essential to good government, France may become strong again as a military power, she may even prosper in her industries, but her people, divested of freedom, will be discontented and unhappy.

Having once tasted of freedom, on however limited a scale, no people will submit for any great length of time to arbitrary rule without an effort to throw it off. And this is more particularly true of the French people so that should the gov. eminent now be 'changed to meet, the views of President MscMahon, It will only be paving the way for another revolution and attempt, futile though it may be, as others have been, to establish a Republican form cf government. France may not be ripe for this now, bat the day will come that she will be, and then she will succeed in spite of the Intrigues and corruptions of the Bourbons, the Bonspartists, and all other pretenders to the throne. THE CDOKBZOOK There is no abatement of public interest in this trial as it progresses and the circumstances connected with the murder, from the first conception to the commission of the horrible deed, are traced step by step and revealed in their proper order.

It is certainly (says the West Chester Republican) one of the most interesting cases ever tried before a court and jury. The prosecution has had the advantage of certain testimony that was developed in the trial that took place In Baltimore some months since to recover the amount of insurance policies on the life of Win field S. who was represented as having been burned in a carpenter shop. The agents of the interested insurance companies have been untiring in their efforts to hant up testimony, although they are not officially represented in the prose cution of the trial. The accuracy with which they have been able to trace C.

Wilson from point to point, and clearly demonstrate that he was no other person than Winfield 8. Gobs, is truly remarkable, and possesses all the inter est of a first class tragic romance. It is believed tbat the examination of the witnesses for the Commonwealth will occupy at least Tuesday and Wednesday, and as the defense has some thirty or forty witnesses present, it is more than probable that the case will not be fully concluded before the middle of next week. The prisoner bears up wonder fully well against the circumssantial evidence that has been developed against him. Gen.

Grant denies that he agrees with Judge Kelley 'a financial views. This is good news for the country. For Kelley to propose a financial policy to the President is preposterous, and to publish that the President indorsed his policy was impudence and absurdity in the extreme. General Grant has, proved himself a wise financier, and the people have confidence in him and his policy. All we, want is for him to pursue his own policy, and give a wide berth to all the schemes of such men as Kelley and Garfield.

Their management of Credit Mobilier stock developed their fitness for advisors of the administration. The less attention their counsels receive, the better the country will be satisfied. Beaver' Argus and Radical. The rate of discount in the Bank of England has been several times raised during the last few weeks, until it has at last reached eight per cent. During all this time the flow of specie from Great Britain to this country has been constant, and it was probably with a view of checking this drain of bullion that the bank rate of discount was raised.

If that was the real reason it seems likely to fail of its object. England must have our cotton and breadstuffs, and bo long as the stringency in our money market continues, our imports will he light, and the balance of trade largely in our favor. ow i THE CONSTITUTIONAL VENTION. CON SENTIMENTS OF THE PRESS. On the eve of its adjournment the Constitutional Convention passed a resolution to the elfect that a sufficient number, of copies of the new instrument ba printed in sheet form by the Btate Printer to supply the1 newspapers of the Btate each with a quantity equal to its circulation, for distribution as a supplement to subscribers.

"This is a clumsy way of effeo ting the desired obj ect. Reading Times. An important query is propounded to the sapient body of gentlemen who have been engaged for several months past in preparing a new Constitution for this Btate, and which is proposed by them to be submitted, to the sovereign voters to pass judgment of approval or condemnation. The question asked just now, is: "Where did the Convention get the power to enact laws to regulate the holding of elections in this State?" Under tho present Constitution, which will remain in force until a new one is adopted, the only power that can legiS' late is the Senate and House of Representatives of this Commonwealth. The election laws cannot be altered or amended except by this legislative body, and it is therefore apparent that the time or mode of holding an election upon the adoption or rejection of a new Constitution, or upon any other subject, cannot be relegated to a convention of gentlemen who were chosen to prepare a new Constitution, and whose powers cease when that duty is accomplished.

Johnstown Tribune. It seems very odd and out of the way, particularly in a Republican country like ours, to find a great body of men assembled for the revision of the Constitution a great Commonwealth like Pennsylvania, passing so large a proportion of its time in endeavoring to. interfere with and control functions that properly and solely belong to individual enterprise and management, and to the enterprise and management of corporate bodies. Doubtless the power that incorporates has a right to control the terms of incorporating. But for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to be say ing whether or not the Pennsylvania railroad company or the Allentown passenger railway company shall let or ride free over said road, seems almost as sensible and dignified as it would be for the next United States Congress to determine whether or not the Waltham Watch company may or may not give away a watch now and then wants to.

Whynotgetupa law, or some amendment to an old law, abolishing Christmas presents entirely Lehigh Register. Where did the Constitutional Convention get the power to enact laws to regulate the holding of elections in this State? The present Constitution is still in force, and it provides that all legislative power shall be vested in two legislative bodies the Senate and House of Representatives. No other power ean make or repeal or alter the laws of the State. The Constitutional Convention, consequently, had no legislative power. Yet it has assumed that power, and has undertaken to set aside the election laws of the State, as well as the law which called it into existence.

We trust the people of Philadelphia will not tamely Bubmit to the insult which the Convention has put upon them. The election laws of the State are still in force in Philadelphia as elsewhere. The Convention had no power to set them aside, or alter or modify them and the framers of the fundamental law should not be allowed to be the first in setting the laws at defiance. Pittsburg Commercial. THE LEBANON FIRES.

A SATURNALIA OF INCENDIARISM. From the Lebanon Courier. Lebanon it again in danger from that most accursed of all criminals, the incendiary. On Monday evening, while the moon was shining in its full brightness, making it almost as light as day, at so early an hour (eight o'clock) that persons would be moving about, the torch was applied to the large Sweiter barn on the farm lately owned by Mr. Jacob Funck, now owned by J.

Funck, Esq. and Mr. Andre Light, at the west end of our borough. The alarm was given, and our firemen hastened to the scene, but were unable to do more than to prevent the flames from spreading to other buildings. The barn was a very fine one, and contained about fifty tons of hay, 500 bushels of wheat, 300 bushels of oats and other property, all of which were destroyed.

The live stock, fortunately, was all in another barn. As the flames, fed by the hay, straw and dry timber, burst out upon the air, paling the pure moon I light, the scene was a grand one. There was an insurance, we learn, of one thousand dollars on the bulldiog, in the Sinking Springs insurance company. One half of the crops belonged to the farmer, Mr. Geo.

Gingrich, and the other half to Messrs. Funck A Light. Franklin Yocum Brother had ten bushels of wheat in the barn. At 12 o'clock, the same night, another alarm was sounded, and this time it was the barn of Mr. Henry Laudermilch, about a mile southwest of the town, and three fourths of a mile from the barn already destroyed.

This barn contained the crops of the farm, which were all destroyed, together with a new carriage, threshing machine and many other farming implements. The live stock was got out. There was an insurance on this barn, we learn, in the Northern Mutual insurance company of Lancaster county. About the time this fire was under headway, fire was discovered in the barn on the John Funck farm, a few hundred yards from the barn first destroyed. The members of the Perseverance fire company, who were still at the scene of the first fire, rushed to the place and extinguished the flames before they had got hold upon the building or contents.

It was thought there that the incendiary must be caught, and some insisted that he was inside the building, but there was no such good luck for those who would have gladly got hold of him. It is rumored that an attempt was made to fire another barn in the neighborhood, but the report has not been confirmed. Such audacious crime in our midst is most alarming to our people, and calls sternlv unon our officials and upon the public for every effort, regardless of expense, for the detection of the fiend or nends wno would tons aesiroy property, aud would not hesitate to taKe 1119.

FROM HAVANA. CAPTURE OF THE YIRGINIUS. ALL ON BOARD MADE PRISONERS. TO BE TRIED FOR PIRACY. New York.

Nov. 6. A dispatch from Havana, dated the 5th, says the steamer Virginius was captured, with all on board, by the Spanish gunboat Tornado, near Jamaca, on the 31st of October. She had 170 passengers and the vessel and cargo, have been brought to Santiago de Cuba. Proceedings will be immediately com menced against tne prisoners.

Tbe Tornado, which had been search lug for the Virginius since her attempted landing on the south coast of the island, caught sight of her at 2:30 p. on the 3Ist and gave chase. The Vir finius put on all steam and made for amaica, hoping to find a refuge in waters. In her flight she threw overboard sev eral horses and used a portion of the cargo ror ruei. The Tornado caught up with her at ten p.

near the Jamaica coast, and she surrendered with all on board, not one escaping. Among the prisoners captured are the well known insurgent chief Bembetta, who was reported killed a few days ago, a brother of Cespedes, a son of Quesada, Senor Jesus de Sol, and other important prisoners. The prisoners have all been brought before a competent tribunal at Santiago, and are now being tried as pirates. There is great rejoiciog in Havana over the news. The streets and houBesare decorated with national colors, and subscriptions are being raised for a testimonial to the officers and crew of the Tornado.

NEW YORK. New York, Nov. 6. Full returns of this city on the State ticket give Willers, Democrat, Secretary of State Thayer, Republican, 35,007 Willers' majority, 31, 981. The returns from the State are not yet complete, but enough have been received to show that the Democratic State ticket is elected by an average majority of about 10,000.

The figures so far received on Secretary of State give a majority (o Willers of 10,470, with a chance in favor of an increase. The Legislature is undoubtedly Republican, though by decreased majorities in both branches. Last year the Senatetood twenty four Republicans to eight Democrats. The latest returns indicate the election of 17 Republican Senators this year and fifteen Democrats, with two doubtful districts conceded to the Republicans. Should these return Democrats, the new Senate will be Democratic by one majority.

The Assembly last year consisted of ninety one tnirty nve Democrats and two Independents, the latter voting with the Republicans, making a practical Republican maioritv of fifty eight. The present estimate of the next Assembly makes it consist of eeventy hve nlty three Democrats and one independent, an ap parent Republican majority of twenty This showing may be somewhat, but not materially, changed by later and iuiier returns.

When the case of William M. Tweed was called in the court of Oyer and Terminer to day, his counsel handed Judge Davis a paper which was understood to be a protest against that judge presiding at the trial. Judge Davis characterized the contents of the paper and the time of presenting it as extraordinary, and adjourned the court till he would consult with his associate judges of this district. Upon the reassembling of the court, the judge announced that he would take no notice of the contents of the letter, and after some little sparring between the court and the counsel, the case proceeded. After examining a juror and rejecting him, and when examining the second one, Tweed's counsel claimed that as under the new law the court was acting as trier of jurors, he should take the oath formerly prescribed for triers.

Judge Davis stated it was no new thing for a judge to be a trier. The counsel contended against the judge, but without any decision on this novel point, the court adjourned until tomorrow.

President MaeMahon sent a message to the Assembly, which was read shortly after reopening. The message begins with congratulations on the liberation or tne territory, and the maintenance of order, and continues as follows Europe is assured that we are firmly resolved to preserve peace, therefore, without fear, she sees us resume possession of our territory. The administration has always acted in the conservative spirit which animates the great majori ty of tne assemoiy, irom wmcn i never depart. Agitation of the public mind redoubled in intensity as the hour of reassembling approached, because it was requisite to discuss constitutional bills, which necessity involves the question of the form of government. I had neither to intervene in these discussions nor to forestall your sovereign decision, but merely to confine the former to legal limits and provide that the latter should be respected.

Your power, therefore, is intact nothing can im rede its exercise. Perhaps, however, you may think in the preEent situation, with party feeling so strong, the establishment of any definitive form of government presents serious difficulties, and it would be more prudent to maintain existing institutions. If so permit me, elected to an honor which I did not ask, to tell you frankly my opinion. To completely insure public peace the government absolutely lacks two things essential conditions of efficiency. It has neither sufficient vitality nor authority.

It can do nothing durable. If the rights of government are daily questioned, with its powers liable to be changed at any moment, it can secure peace to day not safety to morrow. Great undertakings are impossible. Industry languishes. We are unable to restore that confidence abroad which is necessary to a restoration of the greatness of the nation.

The Government lacks authority, for it is unable even to obtain obedience from it3 own agents, or to repress excesses of journals which are corrupting the public mind. You will consider these dangers and create a strong, durable executive, which can energetically defend society. Death of the Mother of Edwin M. Stanton. New Brighton, Nov.
