HOW TO OBTAIN THE HERALD REG.
VLARLY.
We often have complaint, from i evident* of Savan
nah and Hilton Head that they are not able alweys to
obtain the Hia.no, The demand is sometimes so
great as to exhaust an Edition very soc’n afer its iaaue,
and those who wish to have toe Herald regularly,
should subscribe for it We have faithful carriers In
Savannah and at Hilton Head, and through them we
always serve regular subscribers first.
BUSINESS DIRECTORY - OF SAVANNAH.
We are now publishing a column and more ofbrlef
business announcements, carefully classified, under
the general head of “Savannah Business Directory.”
It includes some forty leading business men and
firms of Savannah. We propose to retain tills as a
regular feature of the Herald. The expense of in
serting cards In this department ot the pajier is very
small, and we believe the advertisers will receive
more than a proportionate benefit. Parties wishing
lo have their cards included in this Directory, can do
so by sending tliem to our counting room, or hand

CRIME IN ENGLAND AND THE I NITED
STATES.
Someone has been comparing the state of
crime in Eagland and the United States. It
is evident that the elements of such a com
parison do not exist. England, in the first
place, is a densely populated country—the
United States are r cna; natively sparsely
peopled. It is ant-iC.-Aary to state thai
crime more abounds in densely-populated
states than in those which are sparsely pop
ulated.
In the second place the United States are
just released from a war that has thrown
out of employment numbers of men, who
aie unable to earn a subsistence by the reg
ular pursuits of industry. They arc of ne
cessity depredators. England has not been
engaged in hostilities for ten years. Her
population is almost fully employed.
But in the third place such a comparison
should lie made between the crimes com
mitted in each country respectively of the
same cfiariicter, *. c., forgery, burglary, \ar
<fcc., and the more atrocious crimes,
such as murder, arson &e.
The former are not in the same category
with the latter. They result from the disor
ganized state ol society, and are of necessity,
of frequent oecurrenced. To make the com
parison lair the state of the circulating me
dium in both countries should be taken into
account. Our currency is the prolific parent,
not only of gambling in stocks, in gold, &c.,
but of forgery and fraud, and all that class
of crimes not considered capital. The great
er part of the crimes committed in the United
Htates at present arise from the depreciation
ol our circulating medium, while crimes of a
greater individual atrocity, but uot so de
structive of the general interests of society,
may be more rife, perhaps, at present in
Great Britain than in the United States.
State Coxvbktiok.— The Peuaaylrkuia
Republican State Convention met at Harris
burg on Thursday last. Resolution ex

and the Convention adjourned sine die.
The Minnessota Democrat State Conven

olutions sustaining the reconstruction policy
of President Johuson, iu favor ot the main
tenance of the Monroe doctrine, opposing a
protective tariff, and denouncing the suspen
sion of the writ of habeas corpus were ad
opted.
Cholera in Spain.— The government at
Washington Ims been officially informed by
a letter dated Port Mahon, Minorca Island,
July 27, that the cholera had made its ap
pearance on the coast of Spain. The civil
Governor of the Island had given directions
that proper care be taken to prevent the
spreading of the disease, should vessels ar
rive having it on board.
The Democratic Central Committee of New
York, met in Albany on Friday last, and is
sued a call for a convention to meet in Al

candidates for State officers. The members
of the committee v,, re, it is said, unanimous
in support of President Johnson, and it was
agreed that the resolutions of the conven

|C .rretponaence of the Mt*#*’ * '
New You. Frid** ', ®* r ** d ’
A j evening, Aug 18.
of a fl»t *•* *“•**•■ w «k,
x . .ass order, has just rolled over us.
.ot content with the pleasantly exciting dis
patches relative to the cable, occasioning
more speculation upon the probabilities and
possibilities of its final success or failure, we
bad to be stirred up to an awful extent by
Bank defalcations, gold forgeries, and a big
skedaddle by a little thief, whose peculations
many believe have effected nearly every old
established broker and banker on the street.
All sorts of predictions are made by know
ing and unknowing ones—but one fact is
evident, i. e, —that the faces one sees to-day
on SY all street and vicinity, wear an anxious
and troubled look, showing that many of the
supposed wealthy persons there are either
very nervous about something in their busi
ness, or else are laboring under premonitory
symptoms of what is now very prevalent
double and twisted bellyache ! It is fair to
infer it is the latter, as one of the “crack”
barkeepers in that vicinage avers that he has
poured out more blackberry brandy the past
week than during the past three years
Outsiders, apparently, don't care a red.
Oar of the Most Imposing
demonstrations witnessed in this city tor
some time was the funeral of officer Walker,
who was killed last Tuesday morning, while
in the discharge of his duty as a policeman.
Six hundred of the Metropolitan Police in
their blue uniform, attended the funenil, and
marching down Broadway, occupied the en
tire pavement from curb to curb. The coffin
containing the remains ot the deceased was
borne on the shoulders ot four men, who
marched in the centre of a hollow square
formed by eighty policemen. The pageant
was a fitting testimonial to a brother officer
who was murdered at his post. Thecircum
stances of the murder reflect the highest
credit upon the fidelity of the victim to his
duties. He heard the repeated screams of a
female, and instantly rushed to her rescue.
Arriving at the spot, a villain rushed past him,
and fired the total shot. The investigation
of the case shows the woman to have been a
worthless creature; and no doubt the office!
suspidoned as much. But it was his duty
to prevent -violence—perhaps murder of a
human being—and he rushed upon his own
death. In the investigation the woman with
a brazennegr, of falsehood seldom met with,
swore positively she was not the woman
screaming—that she was not there at all.
Parties present, both before and at the time
of t.ne tragedy, full as positively identified
her. To save from violence or death such a
creature was not worth the sacrifice of offi
cer Walker’s life. But he had his duty to
perform, and he performed it with a fidelity
and bravery worthy ot emulation.
A Modern Leander
has turned up here. A little fellow, aged fif
teen, a few days since escaped from 'Randall’s
Island, by swimming across Es st River to
this city. He was followed by a’j officer and
traced to the Albany boat lying; in the Hud
son river. But, catching sight of the officer,
he Jumped overboard and swam around a
pier to the Troy boat. Here he was caught
and given in chugs of the officer, from
whom he Immediately slipped away and
jumped overboaid again, swimming back to
the Albany boat. This time the boat was
moving ost ©f the slip oa her way to Albany.
He caught fast to one of the staunchions
under the guard in front of the paddle, and
there remained tor twelve hours, all night,
and until the boat reached Albany. Before
he secured his perch, however, he was
struck once by one of the paddles and had
his head laid open. The telegraph notified
the officials at Albany, who were on the
lookout for the little water-dog when the
steamer arrived. He saw them in a boat
coming for him and hopped off from his
perch into the water, and there baffled their
efforts by diving and swimming under water,
for two hours before capture. He was re
turned to Randall’s Island. If he was only
as good at lifting as he is at swimming, what
a servicable “grappler” for the Atlantic cable
he would make.
A Vtrj sad Suicide
is just brought to light here, in which a
young and respectably connected girl, clearly
led astray by evil associations, made away
with herself by taking laudanum. Her name
was Ellen Owens, and she was but sixteen
yean of age. It appears she left the resi
dence of her sister, with whom she was liv
ing, on Sunday, and nothing was seen of her
by relatives until the Thursday following,
when her brother found her- on a ferry boat
and took her home. Tho. evidence elicited
before the Coroner showed that she had met
an acquaintance about lx* own age, named
Anna Myers, and went to the house of a
friend of the latter. That afternoon they
went strolling aboot the city, Ellen being
obliged frequently to sit down from Illness
laboring, undoubtedly under the Influence ol
some drug. Thus the whole night was
passed. The n*xt day tlaey went aboard a
Hoboken ferry boat and rode several times
across the river, and in the afternoon wan
dered about the streets, Anna endeavoring
to get Ellen, to enter with her a house of 111-
fame. In the ervening they went to the ferry
boat again, being acquainted with one of the
deck hands, and here Anna left her. The
deck hand endeavored to urge Ellen to go
home, but she refused to do so, saying sbe
would be scolded by her sister; but she
finally consented to go, and started, insisting
upon going around by the Elysiau Fields,
Hoboken—(sire resided in Brooklyn). Reach
ing the Elysian Fields, she again declared
she dared not go home, and said she would
sleep out all night on the ground. To this
the deck haast objected, and said he would
walk all night with her rather than she should
thus expose her health. She then said she
would restni to the ferry bouse and stay
there, and they returned, the deck hand re
maining with her until daylight, when he
was to go on duty again. The next day she
wandered about again, and finally waa met
y her brother; but before she went home
8 - managed to take a dose of laudanum,
which, it appei trs, she had purchased in her
wanderings. Chi reaching home she would
not tell where Bite had been, nor of whom
she had got nuoney which she had, further
tbim that she ha and borrowed it. She went to
bed, but next m orning sbe was found to be
dying, and although a physician was sent
for, her life coul.fi not be saved. Disgrace
shame—death !
A Sew Era
is about to be started in this city—an heb
domidal paper, 'Which promises to devote it
seif exclusively to bringing about a “New
Era” of Qbriatia pity. Morals, and Brotherly
Love in this city. There never was a better
field is the world for such a laudable enter

Mike Murphy’s I
The “newest thing” of late near the Bat
tery is “Mike Murphy's." It is the resort of
all llto Battery boys, stage-drivers, car-driv
ers und conductors, and all the sports of
Brooklyn, who there congiegate und bet on
the forthcoming boat races, mills, rat and
cock tights. Mike is a broth of a boy—
never drinks himself—albeit he dispenses
oceans of bibulcus fluid every twenty-four
hours—und. being six feet three inches in Lis
stockings, is an acknowledged authority and
Itaiker in all the sports. . Although of im
mense proportions, he never indulges in any
such “sport" as knocking refractory custom
ers down, but generally disposes of them in
the cool way of lifting them up at arms
length, carrying them across the square to
the Battery, and giving them an impromptu
plunge buth free gratis. If any one wishes
information on any sporting topic they al

it, tar in advance ot the sporting papers.
THE ATLANTIC CABLE.
Direct and Important
Intelligence.
The Great Eastern Returned
to England.
Hopes Katortained That the Cable
may yet be Found.
Heart's Content, Tuesday, Aug. in.)
Via Aspy Bay, Aug. 17. >
The British war steamers Terrible and Gal
latin arrived at St. .Jobus, N. F., at S o'clock
on Tuesday evening, the I.7th inst.
The steamship Great Eastern returned to
Sheerness on the 11th inst.
Cnpt. Napier reports as follows:
The cable parted on Wednesday, the 2d
inst., at noon, in nineteen hundred and
fifty fathoms of water.
It was then gi applet! for three different
times, and raised twelve hundred, nine hun
dred and six hundred fathoms,reßpectlvely.
Each time the grappliugs broke, but ihe
cable remained unbroken.
The Great Eustern returned to England for
stronger and better grappling gear.
Mr. Varley, one of the electricians, writes
most encouragingly in regard to ths cable.—
He says:
“ We found no difficulty whatever iu grap
pling the cable, even in the greatest depth
of water. As stxm as proper tackle is pre
pared, we will probably commence grap
pling for the cuplc again, one hundred miles
east of the break, where the water is only
fifteen hundred fathoms deep. The buoy
rides the gale well, beiug fastened by pieces
of condemned cable.
“ Mr. Field is in good health and spirits.”
Sr. Johns, N. F., Aug. 16,)
viaA9py Bay, O. 8., Aug. 18. >
The following is an abstract of the report
of the cable expedition from the 2d of Au
gust —the lime es the breaking of the cable
—until the Great Eastern parted company
with the Terrible :
Great Eastern, Aug. 2, 1860.
A sad, a memorable day In the initials of
Atlantic telegraph.
After midnight the wind arose, accompa
nied by heavy showers of rain and dense
drifts of fog, and increased to a strong gale
to the southwest; but the ship scarcely felt
it, and went ou paying out the cable without
hindrance at a high rate, of speed—seven
knots an hour. About daybreak the wind
suddenly shitted to north northwest, and fell
to a light breeze, and at 4 a. m. tbe course
was altered to northwest by west half west,
tbe sea following. Mo rniug broke in beauti
ful, and tbe cable ran o at easily at the rate of
seven miles an hour.
At 6:36 A. M., ship time, the paddles
were stopped, and tit 6:46 the ship was
stopped by orders from the electricians room.
In fact, at BA. M., Greenwhich time, or a
minute alter, whilst the electricians were
passing tbe first of the half Hourly signals of
currents to the,shore thegalvsnizer suddenly
detected a flow of electricity which indicated
a serious fault. The test gave no result as
to locality, for the fault was very varying ;
but it was generally believed to be not tar
from the stern of the steamshi p. It appears
that while Mr. Cyrus Field was on the
watch iu the tank, a little before the time of
the accident, a grating noise 'was audible as
as tbe cable flew over the coil astern. One
of the experienced hands immediately said,
“there is a piece m wire,” auii called to the
lokout man above to pass the information aft;
but no notice uppeurs to have been takeu of
the circumstance. After the ship was
stopi>ed and the remainder of the ttaxe paid
out, a piece of wire was seen projecting out
of the cable iu the flake, underneath
that in which tbe fault was suspected
to exist, and on one of the men taking iu
his fingers and trying to hind it down, the
wire broke short off. It was nearly throe
inches long, and lrnu evidently been of bara,.
iU-'eutpered metal, -which had flown out
through the threads in the tank. The dis
covery was in some ineusure a relielf to the,
men’s minds that one ceruiuly. and possibly
tbe second of the previous fault, might have
been tbe result of accident. U was remark
ed, however; that this fault occurred in the
sam*j winch as all the previous ones had.
The fault was too serious to be overlooked,
and as there was a difficulty iu detecting its
situation, preparations were made to get the
pickiug-up apparatus ready.
Previous to doing so two cuts were made
in the cable, the first near the old splice, be
t\\ eeu the main and the fore tanks. Gable
all right. The second cut was three miles
on board, which showed the fault to be over
board. Hie wire rope and the chain wire
were secured to the cable forward, which
showed a maximum strain of twenty-three
and a half hundred weight: and at ‘J-.6
o’clock, Greenwich time, the cable was sev
ered and went over the stern, one thousand
one hundred and sixty-six miles bavin? been
paid out when the end splashed into the
water.
Willi less difficulty than usual—ln fact,
with comparative facility—the cable was
hauled iu over the bows. At eight minutes
past 10 o'clock A. M., Greenwich time, it had
been hauled by the port side of the ship, and
as the wiud stood, the drilled over the course
ot the cable, but came up readily. The
strain on it, according to the indicator, being
horn fifty to fifty-five hundred weight, al
though the latter figure represented the
maximum, only reached on one occasion.
We were, however, nearly in two thousand
ot . wa *ri but it was considered a
fnT?.! < i!m U ‘ n J Unc * th « we had not got
in a few miles further, as we should then
muM b hi?ni? At J* n s c As far as
could be ascertained the ship was now over
a gen Je elevation, on the top ot which there
was only one thousand nine hundred and
fifty fathoms of water.
The picking up was, as usual, exceedingly
tedkius, undone hour and forty-six minutes
elapsed before one mile was got on board.—
Then one of the engine's eccentric gear got
out of order, so that a man had to stand by
with a handspike, aider) by a wedge of wood
and elastic band, to assist the engines. Next
the supply of steam failed, and when steam
was got up it was found that there was not
water enough in the boilers, and so the pick
ing up ceased altogether. Then occurred
the great misfortune.
Lunch was just over. Some had left the
table, others were about leaving. The sci
entific gentlemen had very much cheered us
by their stating that they believed that the
fault was only six miles away, and so ere
dead night tails we might hope to have the
fault on board, make anew splice, and pro
ceed on our way to Heart’s Content, geo
graphically about six hundred miles away.—
suddenly Mr. Canning appeared in the sa
loon, and in a manner which told all, said,
“It is all over—it is gone,” then hastened
onward to his cabin. Ere the thrill of sur
prise and pain occasioned by these words
Uad passed away, Mr. Field came trout the
companion into the saloon and said, with
composure admirable under the circum
stances, though his lips quiveied and his
cheek was blanched, “The cable lias parted
and has gone overboard." All were oa deck
in a moment, Hcd there indeed a glance re
vealed the truth.
I will endeavor now to explain to you how
the fatal accident occurred. 1 say fatal, for
although as I write we are drilling down
upon the spot in the hope of getting hold of
the cable with grapnels, i scarcely venture
to hope the attempt will be crowned with
success.
Let the reader turn his face toward a win
dow, imagining that he is standing on the
bows of the Great Eastern, and tiien, of
course, on his right will be the starboard,
and, on bis left the port side of the ship.
When the cable was hauled around on the
left hand side aud passed over the four
wheels, it was carried over a drum, which
we must suppose to be behind the spectators,
and coiled up as fast us it was delivered from
the picking up apparatus; but when the
engines failed to work this apparatus ot
course the cable remained mot iouless ; aud
as the ship was drifted by the wind lrom
right to left, aud slightly forward, at last the
cable came close up to the bow and under
the foretbot of the ship. There are at the
bow* of the Great Eastern two large hawser
boles, the iron rims ot which project for
more than a toot beyond the line ot the
stem. Against one of them the cable caught
on the left hand side, while the ship
kept moving to the left, and thus
chatted and strained the cable greatly
agaiuat the bow. The Great Eastern could
Dotjfw-aatern lest the cable should be snap
pe/Caud without motion some way there is
mi power ot steerage. At this moment, ton,
the wind shifted so as to reader it more diffi
cult to keep the head ot the ship to the ca
ble, which then chafed so much that in two
places damage was done to it. A shackle
chain and a wire rope belonging to one of
the cable buoys were passed over the cable
and secured iu bight below the hawser holes
These were hauled so us to bring the cable
to the right hand side of the .boat, the ship
still driftiug to the lett. It was necessary to
do this instead of veering away, as we were
Dear the end of the cut of the cable in the
boat. There is a large iron wheel with a
deep grove, and the circumference technical
ly “A V" wheel, from the groove, by the side
of which is a “Remitar,” or smaller wheel,
on the same “axis." The cable aud the wiie
together were coming iu over the bows anil
the groove in the larger wheel, the cable
wound upon a drum behind by the machin
ery, which was once more in motion, and
the wire rope being taken iu around the cap
stan, by bars, but the rope and cable were
not coining up iu a right liue, but
were beiug hauled iu with a great
straiu on them, at an angle from the
right hand side, so that they did not
work directly iu the “V" iu the wheel. Still
the strain was shown ou the indicator to be
very high, but uot near breaking strain. At
last up came the cable and wire rope, shack
ling together on the “V” wheel in the boat.
They were wound round it slowly, wire pass
ing over these wheels together,the first dam
aged part beiDg on board, when a jar was
given to the dynamometer, which flew up
trout sixty hundred weight, the slightest
point marked, with a sudden jerk, three and
a half inches. In the chain shackle and wire
rope chamber, as it were, up out ot the
groove on the right hand side of the V of
the wheel; got on the ‘lop” of the rim of the
V wheel and rushed down with a crash on
the small wheel, giving, no doubt, a severe
shake to the cable, to which it was attached.
The machinery was still in motion, anr. the
ropes traveled’aft together, one toward the
capstnu and the other toward the drum,
where, just as the cable reached the dynam
ometer, it parted, and with one hound leap
ed, as it were, over a few feet of intervening
space, and splashed into the sea.
It is not possible for aoy words to portray
the dismay with which the sight was wit
nessed aud the news heard. When a man
came aft with a piece of the inner end lashed
still to the chain and one saw the tortured
strands, iron wires and lacerated core, it is
no exaggeration to say that strange feelings of
pity, as though some human creature had
been mutilated and dragged asunder by
brutal iorce, passed through the heart of the
speculators. Capt. Mobiarty was just com
ing to the foot of the companion to put up his
daily statement of the ship’s position, having
had excellent observations, when the news
came.
“ I feel,” he said, “ we will not feel much
interested now in knowing how tar we are from
Heart's Content." However, it was some
thing to know, although it was little comfort,
that we had now run 126 miles since yestor
day, that we were 1,042 miles from Valentis,
640 miles from Heart’s Content, that we were
In lat. 61 26, long, 32 96.
Another Terrible Tornoda in tbe Writ.
[From the Chicago Tribune, Aug. id]
Iu the storm ot Wednesday last, a tornado
of terrific violence swept over the towns of
Lyons, Cook county, and Downer’s Grove,
Du Page county, Illinois, levelling to the
earth houses, barns, fences, orchards, fruit
ful crops of grain, everything almoat which
stood in its path. It is almost impossible to
give anything like a full account of tbe de
vastation wrought, or to recount the suffer
ings, but we are informed that the most ap
pailiug wreck was on tbe farms of Mr. Ii
Bilby, in Lyons, and Mr. Craigmill, of Dow
ner’s Grove. The residence of Mr. Bilby
was carried some ten rods and then dashed
down in fragments, nod almost everything it
contained, which the wind could move, was
whirled far off on the wings of the storm.
Mrs. Bilby and her three children were in
the house at the time, and were very serious
ly cut and bruised, but, by wbat seems al
most a miracle, escaped instant death. A
Large field of wheat, cut and in shocks, on
Mr. Bilby’s farm was blown entirely away,
bo one knows whither. On Mr. C'raigmili’s
place a large barn and granary were wholly
demolished, and their contents scattered on
the wind*. The orchards on the route of the
storm are uprooted, or the braDces wrenched
from the trunks of the trees, and in tbe
groves the tree tops are filled with sbeaves
of grain caught up from tbe fields and lodged
here. Agricultural implements, carriages,
wagons and fences have been totally destroy
ed, or so shattered and spread abtoad that
they may be so considered. The wind
seemed, in many instances, to have, in some
strange freak, seized as its toys things which
one would conceive to have been secure in
their weight or slight resistance, and sought
on them to display its terrible force.

vanced 5 percent, and it ts now quoted SI a 97‘4.
Railway Shares are Irregular, aud there is uo ap
pearance of buvlng for au upward turn. The stock
of commence has been very greut and wide spread,
and aecuritv ts more regarded than profits. Until
the public get over the exciting alarm, no higher
pricea can be reasonably expected. At the Second
Board the market was strong, and stocks were : New
York Central, #o>. ; Erie, 82 ‘4 ; Hudson River, 109 ;
Reading, 102>;; Michigan Southern, 02Jg ; Rock Is

There Is more money offering lo flret-class borrows
at 7 per cent, on call. Second rate houses, with
doubtful collaterals, supply themselves less readily.
Commercial paper little doing. Philadelphia aDd
Boston are In debt to New York, and from the inter
ior generally the exchanges are In favor of this city.
Some of the city banks are very cautious about the
checks they take aud scramble’legal tender* which
are lu demand and h»ve aold at 15 cents per $ too pre
mium, for one day’s use of them. The movements
of the Treasury will make money more abundant
soon. Iu August, 1801, the Issues of one year certlfl
cates were verv large, anil a good deal of money was
locked up In them. As the paymen a of this scrip
largely exceed its issue durlug this month, a good
deal of currency wilt be added to the circulation from
this source.
Saturday, August 19, p. m.
Gold continues to tend upward from a combination
of causes. It ts understood that, tor the present, at
least, the bub-Treasury has suspended its sales :
there Ls a demand for the South at the rate of about
three-quarters of a million a week ; the purchases for
customs are at the rate of about $2,000,0uu per week ;
while the advanee In foreign exchange to near the
specie shipping point, produces an ex’peetatlon of
an early resumption of gold exports. These circum
stances naturally force up the premium. There Ls
very little speculative movement; the price this
morning has ruled at 143*. a 144 V

GREAT FIRE AT RUEBEC.
Sixty to Eighty Buildings Destroyed.
Quebec, Aug. 18, 1866
At half past eleven last night a fire broke
out in a house on the corner of Curntn and
Queen streets. It was occupied by Jean Pa
geot, grocer. Tbe flames extended, despite
the utmost exertions of the firemen, along
Curran, Queen, Richardson and King streets,
destroying between sixty and eighty build
ing*.
The loss is not yet ascertained.
Fir* iu Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Aug. 18, 1866.
A fire this morning destroyed the sash fac
tory of A. R. Leutz, on Third street, above
Poplar. The lose on the building waa $30,-
000, and the insurance small. Hale A Gar
rison, moulding manufacturers, suffer a lost
of 92a000, which ia insured for $5,300.
Graff <* Cos., picture frame maker*, lose 910,-
000; no insurance. John H. Hugest, tin
foil manufacturer, loses 94,000. The en
tire loss is about 960,000.
Symptoms of the ReauLT of the PallEi.lc-
Tiosa.—The Republican State Convention of
Pennsylvania ha* fully endedaed tiro policy
of President Johnson, and has come out
strong for the Monroe doctrine. But there
i* always a kink iu the proceedings of Ihe
politicians. The weak point in the platform
of the Pennsylvania Convention ia the re
commendation to confiscate the property ot
rebel* above ten thousand dollars, aud dis
pose of it for paying pensions to the soldiers.
This is the business of the administration,
and may be safely left to them, as a part of
their policy of reconstruction, without any
suggestion from the Pennsylvania Republi
can Convention.
As affairs look now, there is every likeli
hood tint there will be a greater revolution
in the Central States at the next elections
than there was in LBG2, when these States
went against Mr. Lincoln on the ground of
alleged indecision in his war policy. The
change will be all the other way now. The
course of Andy Johnson will, in all proba
bility, be sustained by all tbe Central and
Northern States, eveu’including Maine, thus
leaving New England—with the single ex
ception of Maine—out iu the cold. We
would not be surprised to see such a result
at the fall elections, in which event the
Jocobios will be howling in outer darkness.
