room for one throb at the Capital, ie a very sorry showing. Concerning the Presidency, Mr. BOWI-ES says, there is a common reticence among Congressmen. Determinate opinion, seems to be at a discount. The Democrats are all faithful disciples of a passive policy in secret, but they dare not give vent to their opinions because of the

They dread the defeat or withdrawal ot GRANT at Philadelphia, because.it would utterly denude them of Presidential capital, and look forward with hope that it may not be so, but they may have opportunity to set up a Bepublican and Reform ticket in opposition, which they can help to support. But they are silent for selfish reasons, and will only speak out with the warrant of safety in so doing. This is rather a pitiful poulion for the

"unterrified" to be in. On thesideofthe Bepublican Congressmen, Mr. BCWXES says, with the exception of those who have been pronounced in their opposition to GEN. QRANT, there is a condition of neutrality or passivism equivalent to {hat which rules among the Democrats. The great body of the party are holding themselves in reserve, waiting for what may turn up, and afraid to be in any way instrumental in guiding political affairs so as to obviate what they fear. They are afraid of the force of home impressions, yet dare not attempt either to mould or dirpct them. All patriotism is engulphed in self. This also is a very lamentable-showing.

We pass over his review of the signs according to which Mr. BOWLES prophesies a fatal division of the Bepublican party

in the event of General GRANT'S renomi-

such a partisan as the writer is, will not stand good in the' Court of Common Judgment, and come to take a glance at what he says of the prospects of the Republican Reform party -just now in its 'swaddling clothes, and very uncertain as to paternity. Mr. BOWLES says the convention that is to meet at Cincinnati in May next will not be in antagonism to Republicanism, but in sympathy with its

Now the avowal of all these things is laid down very specifically by Mr. BOWLES, and is in brief this: "Republicans! be good boys and do not renominate General GRANT, with all the sign's and significations now threatening but put TRUMBULL and GREELEY at the head of your Presidential ticket and you can defy all creation to give you a political whipping." So ends the first lesson.

IN the "Notice to Correspondents" column, in the New York "Ledger," of March 16, it appears that Fort Wayne is in Michigan. This is equal in accuracy to a statement .that we noticed in the same publication, over a year ago, in a historical sketch by PARTON, in which the battle of Tippecanoe is represented as having been fought in the State of Ohio.

TO-DAY comes the New Hampshire election. The result is extremely doubtful.

THE "Journal" double-leads an editorial from the EXPRESS and places it at the head of its columns.' This id a commendable effort to give the patrons of that pa-? per some good reading.

THE Chicago "Times" wishes the Cincinnati Convention to a'ct finally in May,-] and to nominate/Judge DAVIS. It wants no subsequent action by the Democratic organization as such, but an ac-

purest principles and objects. The call' successful. A number of bronze guns presupposes no nominations, and the ass semblage may only be a monster meeting, with a national sanction, to demonstrate the truly patriotic sentiments of the Republican party, which will guide and strengthen it now and in its future, and not in any way foreclose participators as to the action of the regular Republican Convention at Philadelphia. But suppose it might be otherwise, and that the Cincinnati Convention should put up a ticket bearing the names of CHARLES SOMNER and LYMAN TBUMBUI/L, or LYMAN TRUMBULL and "HORACE GHEELEY, Mr. BOWLES expresses doubt that the mere organized machinery of the reg ular Republicans would be more powerful over the minds of the people than such nominations would be. Neither the Republican nor the Democratic partyj separately or unitedly, he thinks, would be powerful enough to make successful resistance to a movement so broadly founded and so illustriously generalled. Perhaps none of them would try at least Mr. BOWLES believes the Democrats would not—and more especially if TRUM BULL and GREELEY were the nominees for, like DAVY CROCKETT'S coon, they would come down without the expenditure of powder and bullet, finding that resistance would be' useless flop over voluntarily and without even the hope'of recognition when the spoils are divided for Democratic direct coalition with the Reform Republicans is to be one of the impossibilities of the political period "Will the Bourbons ever give in to such a sacrifice?

The French were at this time the best ship-builders in the world—at least their models were the best aad this remark applies to the merchant marine also, for their vessels were of comparatively large size, and were heavily armed, carrying sometimes as many as sixty guns. It is due entirely to the great exertions of the French that improvements were continually being made, the other powers followed her but slowly. It is but just to

Albert Gallatin as Secretary of the Treasury. Albert Gallatin was born iu Geneva in 1761. After receiving a liberal education at the age of eighteen he came to America* thoroughly imbued with the progressive spirit of our political institutions and :four years after his arrival, depending upon the busifiess of a teacher for support, he became a tutor in Harvard College. Carrying out his original idea pf an active life, he finally settled in Philadelphia, then the national capital, became acquainted with the leading statesmen, and rose so rapidly public estimation that he was, in the year 1790, elected to ingress, and was Shortly after trans-* ierred to the .Senate.

MASSACHUSETTS is about to establish as a branch of its educational system, schools for the instruction of the working-classes in the mechanical trade. The idea is an advanced one and comes from Europe. It has been mooted for some time in this country, but the State which leads in isma abilities, especially his reports on matters and education is the first to adopt ito.-fJ of finance, attracted universal attention.

Characteristic of the political bitterness of the era, and illustrating how great men rise above its influence, we quote Mr. Gallatin's statements regarding his intro ductien to the responsibilities of- his office.
