The thirteen original states ure to be represented at Philadelphia, on next In dependence Day, by a legion composed of one military company trom each stale. They are to act as an escort to the presi dent not to the individual—ot the coun try, each command wearing its own uni form and earning the flag of its state A mi dal commemorative of the occasion will he presented to each member ol the legion. The states will he represented as follows: New Hampshire—Amoskcuh Veterans. Massachusetts— Boston Light Infantry. Rhode Island—First Light Infantry. Conneticut —New Haven Grays. New York—Old Guard. New Jtraey—Phil. Kearney Guard. Pennsylvania—States Kenoiblos. Delaware—American Rifles. Maryland—Fifth Maryland Infantry. \ irginia—Norfork Light Artillery blues. North Carolina— Fuyetterville Rifles, ft 'ii'.h Circling—'Washington Light Infantry. Ge >rgia— Clinch Rifles. We believe each cl these companies has n proud history. The New listen Grays, for example, had preserved an uu b'oken existence ot over halt r eentuiv when the civil war broke cut. but it was one ol the first to volunteer ita services. Returning at the end of three months ii sent out over folly officers to different commands, twenty-six ol whom did not ieturn alive. Ol such is the centennial legion. Our own Clinch Rifles have a history too; hut our Augusta contempoi units can present it in fuller and better form than we ear. ai.d we turn the sul>- leit over to them. We weleom all such fraternal organ'/aliens as evident-, that the chasm is really closing in spite Of fhe despot ate. t fleets ot republican politicians to keep it open as a source ol political tyipj #l, SENATOR GORDON, Of GEOIIQIA. Senator Cordon, ot Georgia, was one of the first Rebel leaders to get back into power under the Federal Govern- and ho has born** his honors with great good sense and discretion. For' bcitrance and self control are not as nat ural to him as to Lamar, hut he has learned to practice these virtues through the bitter lessons of cxpi-ricncr, and whatever there was fiery and intolerant in his character seems now sobered and chastened into wisdom, lie has not the political insight of the Mississippian, nor his clear and unpretentious elo iuenoe, but he is fully as honest in Ids purposes, and is a far more pleasing speaker. Senator Gordon is now forty-lour years of age, and looks, it may he, a few years older, lie is of middle age, and vety neatly and compactly built, and the first thing which strikes the observer is the hard, weather beaten expression ot his face Some of this grimness, but not all ol it, is due to the scar o' an old wound in the left cheek. The lingering shadow of sternness and suffering on the countenance is not unbecoming when we remember that Gordon went into the Rebel seivice as a captain ot intantry in I HOI, commanded one ot t' e wings ot the army that surrendeied at Appomattox in 1805, and was wounded eight times in battle. It may have served to deepen the lines left by such experiences that he w,:s cheated out ot his election as Governor of the State in 1808, whe 1 that amazing scoundrel, But lock, imw a fugitive in Canada, was put in charge of the Siate. The form ol Gordon's face is distinctively Southern, his mustache and clnu whiskers have a Southern cut, and the sound of his voice and his peculiarities of pronunciation all proclaim his section. As an orator, he speaks with dignity and in a tone that makts the Senate chamber ring, a-ing choice and elegant language, and occa sionidly letting slip a s nlence that shows something of the rhetorician's art. Senator Gordon won his first laurels in the Senate by hi* defense of the peo ple of the Smith against slanderers like Hays, and the union ol jnnderalion and manly courage which lie displayed in the petformance of that duty ga.ned the confidence of a majority of the people of the North. He was the rftuoiiu Southern politician who commanded respect and attenl on outside ot his own section since the war. Among his own people his course established his popu larity on a broad anil firm basis, and they look up to him with an admiration such as no one else'll hi State can command. It is good to know that the influence which lie has acquired will not be em ploy- and for any Imse or unjust purposes. Hi, principal speech during the pr a ent session was that delivered on Tlinrs day last, which, although ol no great length, chub .id a good deal of commo tion. Its central idea was a CtirlotH oiie, at 1 his opponents met it in a strange fashion. lie argued tor the necessity Ol a reform in the internal revenue service, and asserted that it is not oossible to secure an honest and economical col eo tion of the revenue without removing that btnnth of the public business from the influence of the party politics. He said that we I tail p/ngnriz-d our whole system frtin England exeevl the single provision which made hers effective, namely, the appointment of revenue officers on their merits, with a tenure of office dependent on their g< ot behavior. We had, in his opinion, created our rev enue system with two purposes in view, the one the collection ot taxes and the other the advancement ot the party in powi r. The English system worked only for the former ot these ends In the nature < t things, it was to be expec led that the management of internal revenue affairs should grow corrupt when officials were chosen for their political influence and not for their ca pacity and integrity, and when they were .uaiulaiued against aucusatnni so lon.. as they served the party, whether they plundered the country or not. He argued that a'though there might, be periods of spasmodic effort after purity, or periods of change in administration when the internal leveane service would be honest, yet it inu-t invariably, lapse into corruption, whether Democrats or Republicans controlled it, so long as it was a portion of the pajjty spoil in political conflicts. There were some minor points in the speech, but this the- ory that the internal revenue service should be simplified and made non partisan was its essential peculiarity, and it was only loi the purpose of promul gating the doctrine thill Senator Gordon spoke at all. In answering him tin Republican Senators took strong ground in opposition to the proposed reform, and finally, while Sherman tua t* a ekt, ful diversion in regard to the details el the plan suggested by the gentleman Irotu Georgia. Morton and others turn ed the discussion into a sectional debate, the object of which seemed to be to prove that as Gordon had once had been a Rebel, aud as l'oomhs had said there was bribety in the last elecliou in Geor gia, theiefore the internal revenue service which has given us the wlusky frauds at St Louis, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago and Pekin is good enough. A more absurd method of treating a reform earnestly and eloquently urged could hardly be conceived of; but the design was to raise the usual gust of war pas sion to cover up the real question ill issue, and it succeeded. Jt is a remarkable fact that Republican Senators should place themselves on the record against Gordon’s plan lor reform ing the internal revenue service, _whcn their party made the canvass ot i8.2 on s Utopian project for regenerating the whole civil service by the same means. To be sure civil aerv;oe reform tailed mi der Grant's administration, but iis advo cates say that it failed only because it was not lairly tried; and the non-partisan pol icy, which could not, perhaps, be applied to all branches ot the Government, might prove practicable when tested in a busi ness rather than in a political depart ment. It is neither honest nor consis tent for the leaders ol the Administration to meet Gordon’s proposed reform with such spiteful intolerance, and it they think that they have disposed ol his plan for regenerating the revenue service by attacking his war record, they may find themselves mistaken, lie proteases him self thoroughly in earnest in his theories, and he has received letters from all quar ters of the country commend ng h s course, which ecuvince him that tbo t>e > pie are wit i him. Indeed it is plain whatever statesmen may think ot the natter, that the public Ins full laith in such a scheme ot reiormation, and will stand by the man who proposes it in good faith.
