SATURDAY, JUNE 10,187J.
The San Domingo Job.
The Washington Patriot says "it has been, and i.s still, asserted with audacious assurance that the President never attempted to exercise undue influence upon the .Senate in the San Domingo job. The reverse of this statement is true. He invited all the Republicans of that body, with the exception of Mr. Sumner, Mr. Schurz, Mr. Trumbull, and a few others who are known opponents of the scheme, to meet him at the Executive Mansion on two different evenings, when the subject was still under consideration, and then and there laid before them his views, with such information and persuasive arguments as General Babcock was able to communicate by oral statements and documents. In fact, he literally carried out the engagement which Babcock made with Baez in the original protocol, to 'exert all his private influence in Congress.' No President ever resorted to such extraordinary means to promote the passage of a favorite measure, and nothing but the glaring venality, which excited public indignation, prevented success."
BKECIIKU thus gives in his adhseion to Darwinism "Although there is yet much to bo made known, it seems to mo that all thinking men, who have taken the trouble to inloriu themselves about thoso facts, believo in tlio theory ol evolution, or that the theory b3' which God created the world and the suns consists in the development, tho unfolding of everything from some anterior and less perfect state."
Beecher is stepping outside of true "Evangelical Christianity," a little too often, to be in the future regarded as orthodox. How he can reconcile the Darwinian theory—that man is the result of progress, and that our great ancestors were monkeys, and our most remote forefathers tadpoles—with the Scriptural account of our origin, we can not understand. If the creation of Adam in the garden, is to be taken as true, then all these speculations of Mr. Darwin are nonsense, but if we are to discredit the story of Adam and Eve, then Darwinism seems to be good sense. But bciny an expounder of the Scriptures, we are somewhat puzzled to know, how Mr. Beecher can occupy ttte pulpit of the Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, and believe in the monkey origin of man. Will some of our theologians get us out of this perplexing dilema?
The Machine Ruiming Itself. The Washington correspondent of the .Louisville Ledger says the chief officers of the Government are still absent from their duties, and matters are conducted here by irresponsible subordinates who have little interest at stake, and who do not care whether business goes on properly or not. The White House is deserted business is stopped at the Attorney General's office important cases suspended at the Interior Department business running itself at the Postoffice Department, and so on through all branches of the Government. Robeson is away half the time Delano will not return for several weeks Akerman is in Georgia, where he will remain for a fortnight Gresswell isattendingto his farm in Maryland, and the President and his family are at Long Branch. Treasurer Spinner is in London, and the chief clerk received a letter from him to-day saying his health is improving.
WHAT kind ot a Government will the French people establish, is just now attracting much attention. Out of the chaos of confusion, disorder and blood, some signs of a Republic are beginning to manifest themselves: "It is significant that Emile de Girardin, whose views generally accord with the dominant public sentiment in France, declares himself in favor of the Republic. This veteran journalist and statesman holds that universal sullrage and the Republic are as inseparable as cause and edict. Ho is, however, opposed to the centralized republican system that has twice tailed in France, and proposes to have-the Constitution of the French Republic modeled after our own. This is striking testimony to the strong influence exercised by our republican institutions in forming the public opinion of intelligent Europe. Educated observers abroad see the imposing effect of our system more plainly than we just as Mont Blanc seems higher when seen across a province or two, than when the gazer stands in the Vale ofChamouni."
THE Augusta Chronicle is authorized by Alexander H. Stephens to say, in explicit terms, that he regards the Thirteenth Amendment as a valid part of the Constitution, because it was duly ratified by the Southern States but that he does not regard the Fourteenth aud Fifteenth Amendments as valid parte of the instrument, because they were carried "by a violent displacement of the regular government of the Southerh States, and the erection in their stead of military despotism." A great deal of this sort of solemn nonsense emanates from other sources than the metaphysical brain of this pert disciple of the Calhoun school.
THE five great papers of the city of New York, present five different phazes of public opinion in this country. The Tribune is liberal Republican, the Times is Radical Republican, the Sun is antiGrant Republican, the Herald is Republican and Democratic, and the World is Democratic. These reflect the mixed condition of the political sentiment, and show how the popular mind is perplexed iu relation to our surroundings.
ABOUT three thousand public schools have been established under the present common school system in Mississippi during the past six months, with upward of eighty thousand pupils under the tuition of nearly four thousand teachers. This may be considered as some atonement for a good deal of rascally legislation by the State government. Gov. Davis, of Texas—perhaps the best of all the Southern Governors—reports a school population of over one hundred and sixty thousand in that State, the larger part of whom are without any educational advantages whatever. The Legislature failed to make any appropriation for schools at the last session but from the income of the permanent school fund and other sources about a half a milliou of dollars is available for educational purposes. Maryland has thirteen hundred and sixty schools, forty thousand one hundred and fifty-one scholars in attendance, and fourteen hundred and twentyseven teachers. The average duration of schools in Nevada is eight months and eighteen days. Male teachers there average $125.59, and female teachers $97.97 a month—higher wages probably than are paid in any other State. The Legislature of Kansas refused to pass a bill prohibiting corporal punishment in the public schools of that State.
WE now expect to see the Indianapolis Journal, which is the especial defender of our divorce laws, and the particular defender of this McFarland case, destroy the New York San for speaking as follows in relation to the same: "A writer in tho Revolution denies 'that the divorco of Mrs. McFarland reflects anything but honor on Indiana and yet it was apparently a divorce which could not have been procured out of Indiana, and could not under the now law^ bo procured in Indiana.' This writer seems to misunderstand tho subject. The divorce is not objected to because the law under which it was procured was unwise and immoral. Tho trouble is that the divorce itself was fraudulently procured by a dishonorable violation of that very law in short, by mero trickery and fraud. Whether the law is creditable to Indiana or not is not the question. Neither is the wisdom of a divorce between Mr. McFarland and his wife at issue. The law may have been a good one, and there may have been valid reasons for divorcing tho parties but that can afford no excuse for obtaining tho divorce by fraud and falsehood."
IN the statement of the Clerk of the House of Representatives, dated Jan. 10, 1870, we find the following item charged to the account of expenses to the House Forty-eight dozen stay laces S24 00
It would be interesting to know what Congressmen use stay laces, and why they use them. The Hon. Benjamin F. Butler and the Hon. Christopher C. Bowen might want stay laces, but It is hard to understand why Congressmen generally should need them. Is it possible that they wear corsets
THE Baltimore Gazette has a telegram from Washington, which says that Chief Justice Chase approves of the Ohio Democratic platform, except the financial part, which, he thinks, will provoke unnecessary discussion. The telegram says further that the Chief declares that, if he is in Ohio when the election comes otr, he will vote for Colonel McCook.
GRANT, Collector Murpny, ana i»a »u Commissioner Parker, were taking a pleasure excursion in a Government steam yacht on Saturday. Whose money paid for that excursion Is our navy the private property of Grant?
THE Democratic State Convention of Iowa will be held at Des Moines on the 14th instant. The party in that State are united and spirited, and will make an active canvass at the coming election. _________
GENERAL SHERMAN writes from the Comanche reservation, under date of May 25, to say that he has just made the discovery that the newspapers have been commenting on his speech at the supper of the Union League Club in New Orleans. His letter furnishes an indirect confirmation of the accuracy of the published report of his remarks. He says that "whoever reported the speech committed a breach of propriety," for he was assured by the president of the society that "whatever was said should be sacred and confined to the persons present."
The question of propriety is one with which the public is not concerned. But the fact that General Sherman supposed himself to be out of the public hearing strengthens the presumption that he spoke his honest sentiments unreservedly. He felt at liberty to tell the truth, uurestrained by any dislike of Jacobin denunciation or any fear of administration disfavor.
His protest that he is not and cannot be coaxed to be an aspirant to the Presidential office is very Shermanish, but entirely unnecessary. It is not the habit of the people to choose two military Presidents in succession, and there is nothing to encourage a supposition that they will change the habit in 1872.— Chicago Times.
Actually Buying Five Tiekets. The Long Branch correspondent of the New York Sun gives the following description of President Grant, leaving his house by the sea for West Point
The President drove to the depot in his own carriage and, Mr. Murphy not being present, he deliberately stepped to the window and purchased five tickets. The ticket man seemed very much astonished, and exhibited so much nervousness that the ?people smiled. It was difficult to tell which was the most astonished—the President, when be found that he couldn't get to New York without buying his tickets, or the ticket man when he found the President actually paying for them. The President and family entered the car designed for ordinary people, and took their seats. Just then Mr. Murphy and Sam. Maddox's dun colt came dashing around the corner together. They were both covered with perspiration and dirt. Mr. Murphy alighted from his red buggy and hastened into the oar to join the President. Mr. Murphy seemed much chagrined at finding the President there before him, and expressed his surprise that a special car was not attached to the train for the accommodation of the party.
IT will be remembered that Indian Commissioner Parker failed to meet his friends in church on the day appointed for his marriage. She was there, and the President and his family and others were there, but the descendant of "Lo" failed to put in an appearance. He was in a house where lie ought not to have been, in a state of stupid intoxication. Grant hushed the scandal, and induced the young lady to marry him.
What the inducement were may be inferred from the fact that when Parker was made Indian ^Commissioner, hj9 mother-in-law had Indian agencies for sale. Such is the kind of man Grant selected as the head of the
the evidence of his incompetency aud dishonesty. One evidence of his dishonesty is his extravagant style of living, and his rapidly accumulating wealth. A man who accepts an office, with nothing but his salary to support him, who expends twice the amount received from his salary, and has no business outside of his office, and acquires a fortune in a couple of years, is a shrewd financier. Grant is of this order. So is Parker. And so are the men connected with the military ring. The country is filled with such men. What do you thiuk of them, taxpayers'?— Chicago limes.
IN an allusion to the destruction of the Column Vendome, the Courrier des Etats Unis says: "The true significance of this barbarous act is accurately expressed iu a single word the Place Vendome will be called hereafter the Place Internationale. It was French, and is no more just as Paris is no longer French, and as France had ceased to be France. Frenchmen have country no longer.

THE QUESTION DISCUSSED.
The following conversation recently took place between parties living in tliis city, .and toeing reported to ns, we give it as nearly as possible word for word.
Mrs. J. to Mr.«. H.—I saw you with a now dress on the other day as you were passing my house. How much did you pay for it
Mrs. B.—Why, they asked me 75 cents a yard for it!
Mrs. R.—Perhaps you saw it at some other place than where I got mine.
Mrs. B.—Why, where did you get yours?
Mrs.. R.—I bought it at the NEW YORK CITY STORE.
Mrs. B.—Do you then trade at Foster Brother's? I wouldn't buy a cent's worth there.
Mrs. R.—Pray, why not? I always buy wlicre I can buy the cheapest, and am sure there is no pleasanter place in town to trade than Foster Brothers. They are polite and agreeable, and take a great deal of trouble to suit their customers, and are never impudent to you, as they are at some other stores in town, if you don't happen to get suited.
Mrs. B.—But I have been told that they didn't sell as cheap as they advertised to do, and that if 1 went there to trade I wouldn't get goods as cheap as they promised to sell tlitm.
Mrs. R.—Why, they constantly ask you in their advertisements to cut them out and bring them with you that may see for yourself whether they do or not sell as they advertise. Some of the other dry goods merchants have been stutling you. They all hate the New York (Mty Store because it has put down prices. 1 have been surprised to hear certain dry goods merchants in town, who claim to he gentlemen, talking in the most false and slanderous manner of the lirm of Foster Brothers.
Mrs. JJ.—I have sometimes thought myself that what they said was hurling them and helping Foster Brothers, for I am told that the latter are now doing a larger business than ever. How long have you been trading with them, and have you always found them reliable and their goods as represented?
Mrs. R.—I have traded with them ever since they opened, and have always been well satisfied. Once, however, I got a linen lawn that they warranted would wash. After I got it jMrtially made—the breadths all gored—I thought I would cut off a small piece and try it. I was disappointed in finding that it faded quite badly. I was, I must admit, a little put out about it, for I knew that as it was cut out they would not exchange it, for I had already had a case of this kind with another store in town that had sold me a dress that was warranted to wash, but winch faded, aud when I went back with it, they not only wouldn't allow me anything for it, but threw in with the refusal an unusual amount of impudence. However, I determined to take this dress back also, and give Foster Brothers a "blessing" at least for warranting it to me. Going in I happenad to meet Mr. Foster himself, and I commenced at him in a manner neither "child-like" nor "bland." He asked me in a very quiet manner to explain the matter to him, adding, "There is nothing we dislike more than to make mistakes, but there is nothing that gives us more pleasure than correcting them." I explained the matter to him, when he said: "As our clerk warranted it to wash, we are, of course, in honor bound to make up your loss to you, whatever that may be. We would exchange it, only it is cut into so many pieces." You may judge I was surprised when he offered to return me half my moneg. I suppose I ought to have been satisfied with that, but really the dress was of no value to me, and I told him so. "Then," said he, "we will take the goods back just as they are and return you
Mrs. B.—Really, Mrs. II., you are getting quite eloquent. I didn't know I should bring down upon my head so sharp a lecture, or I should have kept quiet. HoweveV, I am not sure but that there is some truth in what you say, and I promise at least to think the matter over. Perhaps I may conclude to try this firm myself, for, to tell you the truth, my friends are many of them telling me I am foolish to pay the old "stores 20 or 30 per cent, more for goods than Foster Brothers are charging.
Mrs. R.—And I quite agree with them. Now to-morrow I am going around to the New YorK City Store to get some muslin, and if you will call around and go with me and examine the goods and inspect their prices, and see with what patience and pleasantness eacli customer in all the throng is waited upon, I will be very much mistaken if you don't make it in the future yourfavoriteshopping place.
We submit tiie above without comment. Evidently Mrs. R. is quite able to take care ofherself. We are certainly nndcr great obligations to her for the good words she has spoken in our behalf. F. B.

Mrs. B.—You certainly were treated well, but do you think they still do things in that way? As your dress was lawn, you probably bought it when they first started. Perhaps they do different now.
Mrs. R.—I have every reason to think this is one of the settled principles upon which they do business. You must have certainly seen that they constantly advertise to return the money for all goods bought at their store that are not in every way satisfactory to the buyer. No other store in town will do that.
Mrs. B.—Now you speak of it, I do remember that they have been so advertising. But I have one objection to these gentlemen, of which I have not yet spoken, and that is that they are so personal in their advertisements.
Mrs. R.—Yes I heard Mrs. T. talking in that same way the other day, and I havn't a bit of patience with either of you. You go and listen for half an hour to the low, personal abuse heaped upon these men by some of their competitors, and then you profess to be shocked and are virtuously indignant because this firm have simply dared to say what they have reportedly offered to prove—that for .years ui dry goods stores have been charging unreasonably high profits. No one knows what they state to be a fact better than you do, for you and Mrs. T., and Mrs. H., and several others that I know, used to go to Indianapolis and Chicago for most all your dry e™ls previous to Foster Brothers bringing down the prices, and yet you stand by and see a combination entered into to drive them away from town, and you hear falsehoods told in regard to them weeks before they opened, and then after their opening you see everything thrown in their way whereby their business may be obstructed—you see their small cash boys beaten in the streets—their goods piled at the door cut with knives—members of the firm assaulted in the streets— efforts made to entice away their help—and yet for all these you have not one single word of condemnation. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. For my part I glory in the pluck of these young men who do not propose to have any body ride rough-shod over them.
