In all othor respects the Aldermanic veprosontativos of tho People's party in this city aro fully up to tho avorage of their Philadelphia brothron, In one of the Iudiaus Congrousional Nomi- unating Couveutions, last woolk, tho fiual batlot was: Whole numbor of votes, 162 ; nccossary to & majority, 82 ; A.

But why did either Convention come to botlior with vulgar fractions ? — ‘We print vory interesting articlo on the sub- Ject of Protective Tariffs, written by Mr, Will- iam Goodoll, a venerablo citizou of Jancaville, Wia, Mr. Goodoll i now an oclogouarian, but bhis writings do not betray any evidonco that ago hes elthor wonkenod his momory or dulled the sharpnoss of his observation. Ho was in the mercuutile business whou the Taxiff of 1810, the firat Protoctive Won in this couutry, was adopted, and bis account of the chaugo of policy, its motiven and effects, will bo road with intereat and profit by ail. The articlo is clearly and con- cisoly writton, the reminisconces portinent, and tho lesson taught by tho facts is plainly indicat- -ed, No ono should omit roading it, under an imprausion that it is u dry recital; it s roplto with intorest, and has a diroct bearing upon the financial and labor questions, which have as- sumed such an angry aspect at this timo, Fominine physiciaus are oven more popular in England than here. 'lio assertion of the. Saturday Beview that sick woman do not wish to bo attoud- ed by women has called forth strong tostimony to thecontrary, A medical practitionor writes to the London Times that the women of tho lower classcs ate ovorwhelmiugly in favor of phy- sicians of their own sex, although tho upper and middlo clossos atill dlstrust thom. Tho letter says that, “in the ouly houpital in London where women osn bo attended by fe- male physicians, the influx of pationts is so great that, to provent the work from becoming altogothor too overwhelming to the utaff and tho resources of the hospital,” the buildings have Leon enlarged and the feen for sttondance lave beoen incrossed, Thers are two or three, por- haps more, succesaful female physicians in Chi- eago. Tho profession is ono for which woman 18, in mouy ways, pecullarly fit. Itisa pity that Lior opportunitios for stadying it are not greater, If sick women can bo as ssiltully treated by womon a8 by man, thero aro o thousand reasons for giving the preference to tho former, Bome curious mistakes are mado in the press, which seom to bo almost inoxcusable, TFor ju- utance, the following statement ig soriously mado in the Cmelunatl Commercial, usually & good authority, and is now goiog tho rounds: ** At the late eloction in Tenncssoe o Legialature was chosen which will provide a Demooratio Btig- ‘cessor to Senator Brownlow. Through all theso Years, although in very faobla hoalth, Brownlow has rofused to dlo for foar the Democrats would roturn Andy Johnson to the Semato, Mo man- uged to koop from dying, but he could not pre- vent his tme from expiring, and now A. 7. looms up.” This statement would be corroct wero it wuot for the fact that, at the Ilate election in Tenuossoe, » Legislaturo was not chosen. In addition to this, it might be as woll to add that Andy John- #on is not looming upat all. Anathor equally grave arvor ia contained in the following an- nouncement by tho Boston Post: “¢Tad® Lin- coln i8 in v'aris with Lus mothor.” Perhaps the most ridiculous error of all, hovaver, i tho ab- surd statement of the Ohicago Zimes that an empty milk-train which runs rogularly from Tarner Junction to Algonquin is o * spoolal train " for tho dellvery of that papor, Laboring under this delusion, it innocently prints the timo-tablo, g5 Tho Ohicago producs markots were vory frrog- ular yestorday, Meas pork was active and un- chiunged, st $22.62@22.75 cash, and firmer on scller tho yonr, which closed at ©17.95, Lard was quiot and firmer, at 143{@14J¢e cash, and 113{c sollor tho year.

Tt is assumod that the changos have romo bearing on this Sena- torlal question, Messrs, Bano and Canisius promise to make a full revolation of tho corre- #pondonce that has possed botweon them and Gov.

Wham is cortainly & Logan man; wo may regard Mr. Houthworth as o Boveridgo man, sinco ho has beon rotainod, and as to Mr, Taylor,~woll, Wo may sot him down 08 a “mutual friond.” MR. MOULTON'S BTATEMENT, Wo prosont to our readers ihis morning the fulltoxt of Mr. Moulton's statomont, which waa first mado public in Now York yestorday after- uoou. We Linve been at coneiderablo trouble to roproduce the statement just na it way published in Now York in ordor that no omissions, even though unimportant, could be misconstrued. ‘Che reader may, therofore, feol that Lo has all that Mr. Moulton les sald in tho mat- ter 80 far. With tho oxcoption of & briof profatory atatoment, in which Alr. Moulton oxpluins that ho has been forced by tha course of Mr. Beocher, bis fricnds, and counsel to mako the rovelations which fol- low, tho docunont is oxnctly tho some as it was originally propared fortho Committeo, 1t was withhield, and tho briofer statemont boretofore published was substitutod at the solicitation of somo of Mr. Beechor's frioudd, and also somo of Mr. Moulton’s, The fact {s important, hawever, that the statoment las been chauged in no rospect minco the pub leation of Ar. Beecher's statomont, and has, therofore, not boon influenced by My, Becchor's uttacks on Moulton aud Tilton, Ar, Moulton expressly resorves the privilege of ro- plying to Mr. Beccher's personal allusions fn a subsequont publication, The presont statomont DPresonts Mr. Moulton's evidence in the contro- versy, ¥ Tho rapid proparation of this statomont last night precluded that close serutiny which alono would justify a final estimato of its roal import and valuo, If wo have succoedod thig moraing in presonting tho document g0 that it may be Plainly read, omough will lave been accomplished, and the public will be content to await a waturor Judgment as to ita full bearing on the caso, Wo desire only to ro- mind thoso who read tho statoment tunt itis really the fltat evidence that has beon prosonted. Alr. Tilton's statemont was tho chargo or sceu-~ sation, which referred to Moulton, and quoted from documents in Aoulton's possession for proof. The statoments made by Mrs, Tilton and Mr, Beecher woro nnawers to thig accusation, For tho first tme, thoreforo, wa bLave the testimony of a compotont witness. Mr, Aloulton would boa competont witness in a court of law, unless e could bo Impanchiod,~that is, proved to be & man who could uot bo believed on oath, ‘There is no reason to #uppose that this couldbe done in Moulton's case. Mo has always been regarded as an honorablo busiuess-man, und noither his word no his charactor has been under roproach until Ar, Boochor stigmatizod him in bis recont statement sg n blaclk- mailer, A, Boecher, it must be romom- bered, did thly suddenly after an lntimacy with Ar.

Nor ean Mr. Deochor's mero word bo permitted to imponcl any witness in tho case,” As tho pouscesor of cortain lettors and docu- ments which woro cither addresssd to him or coanflded to him for sufe-keaping, it is propor for AMr, Moulton to deseribe tho clroumstauaoy un- dor which they wore written or Bivon to him, and to roveal tho motives that Pprompted thoir production. Tho resdor must, thorofore, koep in mind that Mr. Moulton s a compotont wit- ness, whoso testimony must bo aceopted until it is sucooustully impeuchod, Mr. Moulton's statomont notably lacka the literary oxcellence which charactorized both Mr, Tilton's and Mr. Boooher's, It {8 u cumbersomo aud stumbling production in a litorary sonso, This would Indicato that it s the production of Ar. Moulton's pon, unassisted by Mz, Booclier o Mr. Tilton, oither of whom aould have shaped the sams matter into more clogant English, But Alr, Moulton {4 nob an oxperionced writer, aud bau evidently £31d his story in his own way, With thoso hints to the Poador, o may porhaps tho botter undorstand the statomont aud oatf- mato the valuo of Mr. Moulton's evidonco, — "The nlrite betwoon Mr, Disraoll aud Mr, Glad- stouo is on amusivg one, Tach is dotormined uot to bo outdone by the other in any diroction, Mr, Gladatono I8 an intelligent connoissour in brle-a-brac and old pottery, has on oxhibltion in the South Kenaington Mugoum maguifioent col. loctions ot autique work in &0ld, and has, mora than onge, not only alred his kuowledge of Homer 1 Parliawmont, but alsa on the questionu councoted with those autiquo coliocfony, Mv, Disraoll, to offsct this, has Iatoly alred hig lknowledge of tho old mpse ters upon fho purchase of an ald saored ploturo pninted by Pletro Della TFraucesco, which hns boou bought by tho Govertment for £2,400.

In thig inatance, thoy sa- locted s man for tho Bupreme Bonch who has boon tho facilo tool of tho Ring, and thus ro- warded him. Thomon Paxson first appoared in Pounsylvanis politics in 1856 as tho lobby agent of Dr, Jayne, the patent-medicine ‘man, and wont to Harrisburg to md him in soour- ing & weat in the Unitod Btates Bouate by controlling tho Logislature. As regards his connection with Jayne ot that time, Qon. Emlon Franklin, of Lancaster County, Who was 8t that timo & mombor of the Legislnture, aud others, have so tontified ns to leave uo doubt as to the objoct of his visit to Darrisburg. Tho Logislature rojected Juyno, but Paxson got his reward; for, & short time afterwards, ho was olovated to tho Common Plons Bonch of Philadelphia, by an intrigue concooted by tho Ring, Aud novw, through the instrumontality of another intriguo, and tho Lelp of tho repeaters bolonging to tho Phila~ delphin Ring, ho s to bo olovated totho Buprome Bonch of tho State, as the organ of thisinfamoua aud corrupt clique. What adds to the aggrava- tion of tho people of Pennsylvania ia the face that their bands are virtnally tied, a8 under thominority roprosentation the Constitution pro- videa that two Judgos shall bo choson this yoar, onch oleator to vote for bat one. Each party, thereforo, nominatos but ono candidato, whoso election will be sure, unless the people find somo method of nominating a third candidate against Daxson and giving him moro vates. The Pitts- burg Evening Telegraph, itselt a Ropublican pa- per, conveys a hiut of the posslbility of such ao- tion in tho following paragraph ¢ Thoro ars fudications of troublo akiead n the ltopub- Heuu rauks of Pounaylvauta, A general caucus of delo. gates to tho Stato Couveution, n fuvor of Indepondent nominations, and opposed to tho rula of Ring or Iting catieug, was Lold in Harriaburg this morning, The friuds of Judge Butler are not disposed to calmly ace copt tho dictution of tiie Philadelphis Riug, and wo unticipato that his unmo will bo presented to tho R, Dublicaus of the Stato, fu tho bellof that ho will poll 1aore Ropublicau votos than Pazson, and be oloctad, ‘L'bis is clearly tho duty of tho Republicans of Peunsylvanm, Thero is uo danger to be appre. Lended, of courso, from tho Domocracy, as undor the minority rulo their caudidate is suro of oleo- tion. it is onlv by ropoated nssaulia upon this Riuvg that it can bo broken, If no other Repub- lican candidate ia put in the fleld, aud Paxson i sllowed to go in by default, it gives ro- newed strongth to the Ring, and helps confirm it in power. If g resolute cauvass, however, is mado betwoen now and November, with a third candidato, there is at loast a fair prospect of his oloction, In cage lio is not elooted, tho Opposition, it it ia vigorous aud intolhgont, will not only bo o powerful pro- teat, but au entering wedpe. Tho prizo ig worth trying for. If a man who is not only identified with a notoriously corrupt City Ring, but be- sides hos mnot tho legal attuiuments to i tho position, is to bo olected to tho Supromo Bench of Ponnsylvania, and hold the place twonty-one years, the poople of that Stato may 88 well .give thomsolves up to tho Ring for all timo, THE SMALYL VALUE OF HUMAN LIFE, Tae TRIVUNE of yosterday morning coutained tho partloulars of no less than twenty-eight denaths of persons by violeuce in vorious ports of the country, Tho recitala of {ho causos leadivg to these homicides carry their Tossou to thowo who will recoive it. ‘o cata~ logue is a wonderful ono for an oduosted Chris- tian country at this date of clvilization, Beginning at the nouarost poiut, we had the sad story of the soduction of the daughtor of a clergyman at Indisnapolis, by & marriod man, followed by tho self-poisoning of the girl sud the shooting down of the seducor by the father, There is tho cnse of tho instant killing of a lad, who, while looking an at o gamo of bage ball, was struck in tho faco by the ball. Thon comos the cose at the rival forrios on tho Aisnissippl, whore, tho proprietors becoming involved, resort was had o sbooting, and - no loss than threo of tho combatauts wore killed. "This caso {a fitly supplomonted by that in Weat Virginia, Some years ago, in that aoction, ono Morgan aud ono Dushlirk married rival ** mountain beaution.” Bushkirk foll into bad Labits, and, soeking safoty, had to make long absences from home, Morgan, not content with tho possession of ano of the benuties, pureuod and ,Hoon enjoyed the smiles of the other, Bushkirk murdered Morgan, Bushkirk again flod, and the widow and the grass widow agaln wore rlvals, Mru, Morgan beenmo the intimato of ono Wil inms, Proseouting Attoruey for Logau County, Har brother, one Lawson, outraged at hor con- duct, donounced Willlams and struck him, ‘Lhen begun the shooting, Willinms ahot Law- son, Willlama, aud his brothor who waa alding him, woro both shot, ‘Phosa thrae wora fatally shiot, Other porsons were moro or less injured in tho melce, which, strango to eay, wag soppad by tho prompt interferenco of Bush- Lirk, who, pistol in hand, arrested tho fight, in which 1o loss than a dBzen woro taking part, Tho *rlval mountain boautles ™ can now count four persons murdored on thoir account. A most dlstressing affair is that which oo~ enrted ovor the Canada line, whero an old man, in the rash endeavor to reclaim a wayward daughter, fired upon and fatally wounded s youug man and wowman, the latter of whom lLa Juistook for his own ohild, aud a companion, ‘Lhiat oalamlty, 1t is oxpeatod, will bo oompleted by the eveutual killing of the fugitive ghl and the suioldo of tho fathor.

Thoro way com- pousation for this, porhaps, in tho fact that all tho prnclpals to the killing wero killed, and thus the lnw hina 1o one particularly to punish. But this reckless want of regard for human life is duo vory largely to tho lax ait- ministration of justice, aud the fatlure to punish murder promptly and soverely, Tho timo has come when the fear of Lnnging no longer dotors men from murdor. Tho clinuces of conviction aro 80 romote, and the chances of adoquate punishmont in easo of conviction are 80" muuh‘lnsa, that the use of tho pistol aud the knifo hins becomo common. No one who wants to uso eithor wonpon lias auy hesitation to take tho risk of being pumsbod thorefor by tho law. There is hardly o duily issuo of n paper that doos Dot record from a dozon to a scora of homicidos, Human lifo is but slightly valuod, and murder bhes bocotno 8o common as np longer to attract avy partioular attontion, \ JS———— THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION, For many wooks thousands of Euglish agri- cultural laborors hnvo been on & strike, Thoy bavo boou supported by the funds of tho Na~ tioual Agricultural Laborors' Unlon, an organi- zation broughe Into bolug by Josoph Arch, Thoso funds woro ralsed by o tax of & fow pon- unies on the members of the Union and by gon- erous coutributlons from individuals and from socioties, chiefly trades-unions, Tha striko hag done the laborers Rood everywhero by en- larglng thelr views, toaching them tho strongth of combination, inspiriug them with ambition, and froeing them from tho stato of practical serfdom in which tho farmors huve Leld thow, Thelr weekly wages have also been in- creaged, on an average, about &0 This I8 & henvy percentage on tho old pay.

It declures that, iy the face of tho harsh and prolongad lock-out of tho furm-laborora in tho eastern countios, thiy Committeo cannot fool justided in supporting thom in enforced idlenossindofinitely; the Com. mitteo must place migration and emigration at tho disposnl of the laborors, or tho altormative of depundivg on their own resourcos,” Now, the alternativo moaus starvation to tho Lalf who cannot get work again, so that it is very ovident that *migration and emigration ” will bo chosen by many thousands of men, Herels the dan- gor to Amerlea, Although the agrictltural laborers of the “North sro tuch bettor off than their follows in Bouth, East, and West Englsud, o great influx of the latter would soou reduce wugos at tho North to the starvation point or bolow it, M. #ration will not, thon, amount to much.

The veil of tho English republic is tho Royal family,—an obsoleto, ustloss, and most oxpen- sive pieco of drapery, considering that there i 10 good renson why o ropublic should not show its faco. Tho monarehy in England owes its continuance not to ity utility, buc to tho fatense conservatism of tho Eugheh peoplo. ¥t hos outlived its usefuluess. Itis still ornamental, however, and serves the additional purposo of intimidating the musses into an obedionce which, porhaps, they would refuse to ylold to a govern- meut of roason. Henco its survival, The affairs of England aro not attonded to, a8 is supposed, by King, Lords, and Commony, but by Trine Miuistor—suothor uamo for Prosident—and Commous; in other words, by the representatives of the pooplo. But such is the forco of habit that tho English people will bave & Royal family aftor the Royal family hos consed to bo anything but a luxury, Lot us goo what the luxury costs. Of courso, Euvgland must support the Queon Bpite of tho fact that all her political knowledge and genius is Just about as great, and of as mwuch service to the nation, as the political knowledgo and gonius of any other Euglishwoman of average intelli- geneo, In tho next placo, sho must support the children of tho Quoon, aud to their number thero I8 1o end save such as Nature's liberality thinks fit to imposs; and support them she must, not for the reason that theso children axe oucki and every one of them born prodigies in the art of governing men, of loading armies, manag~ ing aMaira of State, and Ppromotiug the wolfure of the nation, but for the reason that thoy are tho childron of a man called Princo So-and-so, and of Quoen Somebody. And both mother and chil- dren must be supported in & stylo of no ordi- Dary magnificonce. Thus Eugland supports tho Quoen and cight of her children.
