' THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 1873. 3 THE SEASIDE. People Who Dip snd Rub. Talks with Consul Torbort, I W. For- ney, Judge Bond, and Gen. Sherman. Cubn's Condition---The Virginin Campaign---Municipal Tvils, From Our Own Correspondent, New JEnseY Beacits, Aug. 10, 1873, Lot us, since lifq doth littlo more .supply than Just to look about us and to die, procecod down tho piazza of tho hotol ' and interrogate pooplo. OUR OUDAN CONSUL~GENENAL. Maj,-Gen. Alfrod Torbert, our Consul-General at Huvana, with o salary of $6,000, iz at Capo May. Mo hins Inrge posch-orchiards across tho bay in Dolaware, and gonorally roturns from Cubn at this senson to superintond the peach- gathoring. ITo said to mo ns follows ¢ * Spain hos sont 05,000 troops to Cuba to put down the insurrcction, Not 15,0000f the whole numbor survive. She has sent also threo Cap- taius-Gonoral sinco I have beon on tho island, and neither of thom hLas boon suffored to stay. In my judgment, tho insurrection will nover be arrestod, It hos boon haudlod with herolsm and snorifico by Cospodos, Agramonto, Almods, and others ; and the Bpauish population of Cuba has bogun to mako hollow ovorturos to the insur- gonts. Botweon the two races, however, thero is hato and contempt ; und the talk of cmaucipa- tlon in Cubs is affoctation on both sldes. Bpaiu bas no credit in tho markots of Europe, and she oan got mno more under & Bourbon King than undor the prosent Ropublic. Ilor Inst loan brought about 60 conts on the dollar. ‘Whence are to como hor resources to prosecuta tho subjugation of Cuba? Tho Spanish popula- tion begins to fool tho hand of Fato against them. Thoy are nll Monarchists at heart, but tho homo-governmont is nominally otherwiso. X goo only two solutions of the Cuban question its indopendenco,” or annoxation to tho United Btates. In eithor evont, the bulk of the Spanish would probsbly dopart from tho island. How annexation is to como about, we cannot now see ; but such ovents aro more apt to happen precipi- tately than gradually, The'Amoricans can make Ouba doublo—yes, triplo—its ylold of sugar and tobacco ; for thoy bring with them frosh sagacity and experionco. Tho balance of trade with that island is now cnormously against tho Unitod Btates, and Cuba's trade fs mainly with us. A chongo of govornment in the island would lead to 1no commoeroial altorations, The native Cuban populace is in the main demoralized by slavery, and a very lusty emigration would goto Cuba from tho Iote Blave Btates,—our nogroes, perhaps, loading the way. . That is the only outlook I sco. Nothing grows bettor down there, although the great industrios aro fairly maintained. Coffoo has beon nenrly abandoned ; but the goil and climate will survive both the white racos on the island,” A WARWICK ASSUAGED. Next in tho list of notables I may put John W. Forney, who is s littlo grizzled and thinnish about the hair and whiskers, but keops up that fino, straight nosoand profilo which indicate something aristocratic in his combivation, A good, sunve_talker, pitchod noar tho lino of rhoetoric, and lorge and sccommodating in his manners, ho Las many of tho cloments of a suc- cossful politician, except that touchstono, Cun- ning. imble onough to chango his positions on public quostions, ko is not adrolt at sueaking, gotting up dummies, aud ruinivg an enemy by rofraction. IloIncks the groat Onmeronian artof going on all fours, and also the despoerato vorsa- tility of some of tho Harrisburg magnates, who will walk llonz{ the line of the Penitontiary and propoge a job to tho keepors within, *“Ah 1" gaid Forney, ‘* you Loop up your cor- mor, Gath. But what is tho use of fighting so much? When I was o young man, I walked around for yours to invite somebody to knack & n.h.iP off my shoulder in Old Buck's Debalf.” # Bm; somebody must do tho fighting for tho 08 7" * Then let tho d—d fools do it." Torney is in & fair way to bo rich bofore his death, as Thomas A, Scott has taken him up and made him tho second Director in tho Toexas & Pacific Ruilrond. They aro atrifle alike,— mobile, floxible men, of active, almost volatile temporamonts, who sook to make activity compensato for tho profounder traits of charac- tor which aro tho fruit of original strength, trained by nbstinence, silenco, and method. Enorgy i6 po match forn longhend; fortility cannot eotch up to self-culture.” Tho active men dies of intornal heat and quick changes of tom- porature, whilo tho great towers of humankind aro raised by diligent rostraint into the higher lovels of character, snd prosido thera, cold, iy, and cquitable. ‘‘Thera’s husbandry in heaven,” snye Bhalisponro; and so, on eartl, & man with long purponos bogins by Lisbanding s stroneth, will, “speoch, snd self-command. To own a nowspaper, and from it to dispense food to o great commonwealth, is a woaring task; but the closo of daya had botter be spout in the sorenity of “a charactor and posi- tions 8o woll vindicated that they nmo moro ito attack, than in complaisantry and concord with the evil and'the_good,—holding the thun- derbolts of Jove, and still silent whore it is god- liko to ntriko. i Col. Forney thinka that Hughes will bo clected GOVERNOR OF VINGINIA over Kemper; and this is probable. Tho re- aults of the War bavo beon folt snd forgotton in the North, and we are in the van, marching on i0 now positions. In tho South, the news Ls ust como to band, and Gongervatism is saying to teelf: ¢ Lot us colebrato it by an I\pproprhltuly loyal election over » matter of no consequence.” Forney says that ho is in favor of the Federal Govorument nssnming tho debts of the Southern Btates, and thinks it would bo a great boon of magunauimity. But are peoplo made gratefu by the removal of obligations which lho{ mentally and morally repudinte? The only class of mon bothered abont guulhom Btate debts are the politicisus, who find it difii- cult to demsgogue around the ‘quostion, and the gubsidy-seockers, who want to vugm out tho old to be proaigal with tho new. While those Btatos aro factious, plundored, and controlled as thoy are, tho romoval of their obligations would bo much like romoving the quafi debt to Prusgia Tor tho saka of the Commune, nuGHES in nn able and courngoous man, whose lato speech on the subject of discriminations against nogroces in Virgiuma showed a good, short hold in 8 political wrestle, e nccopted the Kemper ery of ‘“Virginia for white Virginisns," and put tho other side on the de- fensive ot tho outstart; for to such an lasuo thoro can be but one solution. With evory black man in Virgiuia soberly, thoughtfully in earnest, aud the Conservativa eloments torn to pleces h_ntwmm greed for office and differonces of opinion on principle, the latter sentiment must go to the wall. Dosertions will docimate it; indifference will knoiy it from the polla; it has not the national inclination at its back, and down it muat tumble, sooner or Jator, Fornoy spoke to me also about KEMDLE, the late State Troasurer, of Philadolphin, who is sbncoruad i tho libol-suit with tho Now York un ; fIlo is a liboral man of immense woalth," eald Forney, “with whom 1 have hed two or threo oxchangos of sorry complimonts, Ho had influences nt Iarrisburg which enabled him to griddle the ecity of Philadolphin with railroads, He probabl; wrote tho letter on ¢ Addition, Division, an Bitonco, _although ho says he forgot it; but ‘what {g thore in & lotter ? Nolhlnfi looks wo ill, and ia yot often perfeotly mnnocent. When ono of my “olorks defonlted” at Waslington, and I Lad to mako up the dofleit, I turned fo some who were under obligation, aud they rofused me. I thought of Kembloand went to him. Ho drew bis chock without o word, After that ho quar- rolod with me on Biate aud lacal olitics, but I novor auswored, The former kindness had dig~ armod me. He Is sonsitive, howover, to attaalk, and foels tho Now York Sun artiolos vory keonly,h Allof which Is gonuine exprasaion, no doubt ; but specch is sllvern and silence Is_golden, and Kemble undorstanda tho last, The eleplant continues to %}) aronnd; tho band beginato play and the little boy undor tho moukey's tnlf‘ hm‘ botter get out of the way. While I am upon the subject of Bouthorn political sooioty, I may quote JUDGE BOND, who s also hero, - ie iy tho Cironit Judge for the Carollnns, the two Virginins, and Marylend ; asmaliish man, with a red nob of a naso, a pair of plausiblo oyes, and a muriherin' winmmng tonguo, which isnlways ** approciating " womon, Ho fs the champion appreeiator. Judgo Bond thinks tho greatost man prodused on the border In our period waa Henry Wintor Davis, whom he thinka 'tho oqual ot Jonst of Willinm Pincknoss, As to the Bonthorn Bar and socloty, Judge Bond snya that tho groat porsonal failing on all kides is Insincority, 'Thoy speak cordinlly and outront- Ingly to tho facv, and turn about and'ent up their own ohnractors bohind the corner. Ho gives an inetanco of & wholo Dar moying by unanimous consont that n cortain decrco bo entored, if tho Judgo will- but conenr ; and tho Judge found, o aliott timo nftorward, that his courtesy had boon the menns of the plundering of n creditor's ostato, Judge Boud snid this : ‘1t 8 n drondful thing to nnticipato that sec- tlon, which {s {n the hands of adventurors, un- ropentant Rabols, and ignorant whitea_and ne- flroun, sending 100 membera to overy Congross. otweon theso classes you cannot disoriminato, na (hoy oro oqually corrupt, and must inovitably foglslato for bire aud purclinse, Moantimo, Jit tlo or no education goes on nmongst tho rising genoration, and lienco political opponents aro alwnys enomien, Virginin hne moro character thaw any Sonthorn Blate, but North Carolinn will recuporato tho quickost. 1t had loss slaves, o moro oven distribution of land, and more versa- tilo resources, They can work atsomething thoro tho year round. Cotton, {obaceo, ship- sloros, preeious motals and minorals, timber, rico, corn, mako the round of tho yenr." GEN. STERMAN. The Gonoral of our army, whuso snlary is £18,000 o year, came amongst A throo deya, and wo shook off’ bureru rosivaint and conventionall- ty, and oxchangod opinions freoly, Bhorman is n pure, frank type of man, who will have and IIOlJ‘IIIH own, Io hubstitutes for more imogination a short-cut, original obsorva« tion, which is charming and surprising. In thirty minutes Lo will say so many now, pithy, innocent things of dopth that yon bogin to foo that your man has just como into the world seck- ing aftor truth, and dooa not know what anybody had nid previously on the samo subjects. ~ Thia quality of firat-sight novor grows vagarious and Japsos into tho more vorbosity of a professional talkor,—one of thoso elbow-chair follows who soutimontalize, tall o straight rhapsodyaprinkled with inconsequontial nnccdoto, sud kill time and thought like o masculine Doréas Bocioty, Slierman says much inlittlo, with vistas of silouce botwaon, lilto the passing ships you 800, small snd suggostivo, on tho water-lino, Not dog- matic, but littlo given to qualifying anything lie 18 suro of, thero is yot n coul, woldier's matorial- jsm about him which is contonted with o fact, and Joaves tho roadon for it to somebody olko. “The Fronch are not s military pooplo,” ho #nid ; ** thoy may havo beon at “some day, but the spirit {s not there mow, Thoyliveina simplo way in their little villagos, and iry to avold the conseription.” Iow .palpable, and ot praviously unsaid, is this remark! Again, glwrmnu romarked: = I think city and county corporations, and their -abuses, aro moro dangerous than tho railroad ~ cor- porations, The ono is a_long lino; tho other is tho wholo aron. Every town of any roportions in Amorlen i bonded” away by tho fonst responaiblo peoplo in it, and taxation s rising around us like a freehot. ~Stop these local politicians from selling good citizons ont; that's where competition begins and euds.” After this, ou get n_startling array of original statintics, {o bll.mlv that taxation i s hobby with the Gon- oral, At anothor time he nlluded to Washington City lifo, nud_osprossed the sontiment that he was not wholly eatisfied with it all. Thero were a 8ot of buroau-ofticers thero who woro tonacious of their places, and porpotunlly ane aunoyingly spprohensive of boing transforrod to somo othor points of duty. “I Pro!ut the West,” sald tho Gonoral, “and think my Culi- fornid oxperionce was the Lealthiest aud most useful I over bad,” Ilo further esid he had formed no ““Y ligh eatimato of tho destinios of Europo; had littlo or no desiro to return thero, and hiad never bLeen tired but onco in his lifo, when ho nsconded Vesuvius and roturned the same aftornoon. Shorman lacks any of that propensity of tho domng%:uu to ride upon n loose public preju- dico. 0 mny yot be President of the United States, in which case wo shiould learn to take things less on enrsay; for he goes Lo tho mar- row, Ho has no respect for disoboyers of wholosome Iaws, mor for officors who lic up in snug civil homes, and lend tho lives of ~ folks on the rotired Tist. I got this improssion from watching and gponking with him: that o stroug undortow of soutimont iy 1n existenco, of which ho is the Loldest exponent, against GOVERNMENT BY THE SLUMS; that s, tho aggrogato forco of Councilmen, Al- dermen, and eity rings, who Pluudm- our rich towns, and thence govern by implication State oliticians, and finally National Convontions. t is & question if tho structuro of things in this country is not being imperceptibly chauged, dos- pite our Ropublican traditions, by the atoadily- growing maus of sobor people who have no voico, and desire nono, in town-governments,—pooplo who would acquiesco, perhaps wolcome, a usurpa- tion which would mean tho oxtiuction of the shamoloss cabaly which divido renl estate, taxa- tion, fees, and ponaltics amongst themaolves. 1 do not menn to #ny thav in Shorman's mind thoro is & partiolo of “inclination ihat way. Ho would nover bo accordant in anything that did not epring from the body of the people. But we Liavo got & lot of shams and gags which go in the namo of Liborty to do Elllngn upon tho inoffens- ivo, Every city has its Tyweeds nowndays, and tho Twoeds make tho Butlors, and the Hutlors bot- tlo and éork the Presidouts, and keep them well inside. Philadolphia, the worst-ridden city loft to uy, Is now capitalizod with a first-clnss To- form Association, which, as Mr. IIall Staun- ton enid to mo, * will succood our party in tho governmont of Philadelphin.” PEEPS IN TUE QUTTER. To seo the worst lifo of the Middlo Btates, ono should como to Cape May or Atlantic City, and goo the politicians of Philadelphia and tho Tiem- bera of ‘tho Ponnsylvania Lu%i!s]l\turo. Ovor- dressed, dyed, premnturcly bald men, they ap- poar on thio beach with the only womon thoy can appreciato,—cyprisns by profession,—and keop thiese womon in tho umaller or second-class ho- tols, convenient to tho larger housou, where they porade with thom on tho pinzsas,—brazon couplea well consorted. Tho gamblors and do- teotivo police know them well, and call them Charloy, Bill, or Harry.
