‘The wary Youna “did not know the name of the company ;” whereat the indignant Grit, with great shrewdness, remarked that he had heard that "some parties were offering as high as $500 fora vote.” This waa news to the tempter Youra, who in turn became the tempted. “If that ie so," rays Youno, “I'll go for the highest bidder, If you get any information as regards higher rates, toll me, and we'll work in accord,” From this point the two became eurpi- cious of each other, and there were no fur- ther communications between them; but Councitman dren informed the committee that he had understood “ there was $50,000 for the Councils for the pavement, divided into two sums, $20,000 for Select and $30,000 for Common.” He did not know who held the $30,000, but the 820,000 “for the select” was held by Mr. Troms SurrH of the Six- teenth Ward, an incorruptible person, who was lately elected Receiver of Taxes. Upon GiL1's cross-examination, it appeared that this offer was mace during the summer of 1871, and the reason why the exposure has been delayed till now is that the indiqnant Gri, was “ waiting to get all the informa- tion he could,’ that he thought the wood- en Ring was dead, and only spoke out when he found it was being resuscitated. Mr. Thomas J. Smirn, the excellent pe! son who held the $20,000 check, asked per- mission to say a few words to the commit- tee. THe averred that he had never held any such check, and that the records would show that he had voted against the wooden Ring. ‘Mr, Smita then left, having an en- gagement.” Councilman WaGner after- ward expressed his regret at Surtn’s uv timely departure, aa he desired to show that upon subsequent proceedings that ex- cellent person had voted to recede from the Council’s former action on the pavement business, and had appealed from the de- cision of the Chair when It was decided that the requisite number of votes had not been cast in favor of receding; which brought Saurrn into a tangle. So much for Gru and Swirn. Now comes forward Councilman Logayx, who testifies that in July, 1871, he was ap- proached by Councilman Roway, who threw his arms round him, coaxed him into an inner room, and said, ‘ Loca, how are you on the wooden pavement?” Loaan’s testimony from this point is so ingenuous that we give it in full: “Ttold him T was op 'd to wood pavement He said, ‘ Look here, there is nothing in stone pavement, but there is something In wooden pavement,’ and that he ‘would give me $300 if 1 would vote for wood pavement.’ Tatated that I couldn't take I had bad a talk with one of the wood pavement men and could make $100,000 and be leader.

An overwhelming triumph of a party in + Presidential contest sometimes puts it in greater peril for the future than success by * bare majority. Thero have been two Potable ilustrations of thie proposition in ror history. In 1820, James Moxnon, the candidate of the old Republican party, wae retlected President with very little opposition, The urty secmed impregnable. But ina year or two it became apparent that it was by no means As strong as when the old Fed- tral party could contend with it for vie- tory on terms approsebing equality. The Presidential struggle of 184, when the suc- rexsor of MONO Was to be chosen, broke tn piecer the orgenization which had flected him all but unanimously. At the outset of the campaign five aspi- rants, all Republicans, took the field. Crawronp, the Secretary of the Treasury, was. the regular candidate, He was pre- sented by a caucus of the Republican Sena- tors and Representatives in Congress, ac- ording to the custom which had prevailed from the advent of Jerrerson ; and he had the same claim to be regarded the regular eandidate of his party as Gen, Grant had at the recent election, Nevertheless, Avams, Secretary of State, Jackson, Sena- tor from Tennessee, CLay, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Canoun, Becretary of War, ull belonging to the party which had elected Moyxox, allowed themselves to be brought forward as can- idates; and all «outinued in the fleld to the close of the race except CaLnoun, who withdrew on receiving a nomination for Vice-President from the supporters of both Avams and Jackson, The resu't of this famous struggle is well known. There was no choice by the peo- ple, Crawronp, the regular candidate, re- eeiving only a little more than one-seventh of the electoral votes, and the contest was ided in favor of ApAMs by the House of presentatives, he old Republican party went down ander the weight of the majorities given fo Monnor, and its great chiefs then made this desperate struggle, each for himself, for the succession, In 1523 the fragments of the party which Jerrenson had founded were reorganized under a fresh name, and tommenced a new career by electing Jack- WON President. In the recent election the Republican party has won a victory which has few parallels in our history. It carries fiv aixths of the States and a vast preponde ance of the popular vote, If Gen, Grant thould not resolve to be elected for the third term, but leave the glittering prize open to competition, is it not highly prob- able that we shall witness in 1876 in the modern Republican party the same spec- “sacle we saw in 18% in the old Republican paity? Even if a National Convention should be held in that year, will not ambitious leaders snap their fingers in the face of its nominee just as deflantly as they snapped them in the face of Craw- orp halfa century ag Imagine the multiplicity of Presidential Aspirants who would take to their several planks when they saw the Republican or- fanization going on the rocks, We point to specimens, In the East there would be Buaiye, BouTwert, and Burien. Right at our own doors we should have Moncay, Corkuina, FPrevincucyses, and even Vamenoy, who, though he would be get ting rather old by that time, will never deem anything impossible after his Hant- RANI’ vhievement. Over the mountains there would be Sueraax, Monroy, and Looan certainly, and why not Zack CHANDLER also? These names sufficient to sugzest the probability that the Republican pasty will (alla victim to a war of factions, ted by ambitious politicians, four years hence, Another kind of danger will be ve apt to follow the present overwhelming triumph of the Republican party. In 185; Frank Pierce was elected President over Gen, Scorr, the lutter obtaining the votes of only four States. This great victory stunned the Whigs, and made the Demo- rats headstrong and reckless, They re- pealed the Missouri Compromise, attempt- bd to force slavery into Kansas, and thus prepared the way for the rebellion, The dazzling triumph of 1852 led to the ruin of the Democratic party. It has never car- ried a majority of the popular vote of the vountry since that year; and it has been beaten in the lust £ idential clec- tions. Is it not probable that the almost unpar- Alleled success of the Repuolicans this year will intoxicate the leaders of the party as much as the unprecedented vic- tory of the Democracy maddened their thieftains twenty years ago? Keen ob- servers already discover questions of do- etic and foreign policy which are full of Peril to the party in power, Philadelphia Mlustrated. An investigation as to the price of votes in the Philadelphia Common Council is in progress, Mr, Git, a Councilman, having stated that he had been offered $250 for his vote “in the wooden interest,” the ques- tion being between wooden aud stone pavements, he was called upon by other anombers, who were shocked at the price, to name the corrupt person who had made uch infamous advances at such @ rate, Mr, 8G, Youna of the Fourth Ward was gamed, Mr, Youna denied the charge, ac- *ording to the Press, with the solemnity of the “uplifted hand "—whatever that may be, Hereupon an investigation was or- tered, and Mr, Gru testified before the fommiltes that “Mr, Youno approached at the landing of the Mayor's office and eked me how I was on the wooden paye- sent nd said he was authorized ‘0 ive me $200 for my vote.” Counellm ‘dit, swelling with indignation at the (vice, says: “My first impulse was to in- vale bie but upon reflection I thought I Hany a nie bin for a good purpose, and hat Company he represented.” Broad street at $4 a yard; T'll give $75,000 at a yard; and $0.00) at $5.50 a yard: and vat 4.25 avard; 1'll lay the pavement at $3 a yard.’ He said nothing about a‘divvy’ then, The gen- tleman was Abam WAnTHMAN, I told.

We suppose t mes. Mr. Browntow's pro- position indicates the feeling of a numerous and very earnest class of Republican p ticlans, For them hostilities will never be over, the rebellion will never be suppress ed, und peace will never be restored to the country so long as the men of the genera- tion which was engaged in the war shall remain alive. These persons look forward to the retlection of Grant in 1876 asa ne- cessary result of this condition of things; and rather than see the Democratic party come into power again, or any new party containing Democrats among its adher- ents, some of these Republicans would prefer to go through the perils of a revo- lution, to overthrow the Constitution, and to make Gen, Grant President for life, At present, however, their programme does not extend quite so far as this, What they now contemplate is to rev‘levt him for a third term, It is not necessary to discnss this subject at any length at present; but if Grawy wishes to continue in his present office he may be sure of the support not only of men like Brown ow but, of that mighty host of officeholders who have now con- tributed so much to his success, His re- election in 1876 would, in our judgment, be most dangerous to the country; but whether the mass of Republicans will then support it, and the mass of Democrats tolerate it, are questions on which it Is too soon to express an opinion, All that we now know is that the project of revlecting him is one that cannot be carried out with- out exciting the most determined and most strenuous opposition, ——— ot the Right Way. It is proposed as a means of safety against disastrous conflagrations to restrict the height to which buildings may be carried, The argument is that our present fire en- gines cannot throw water above a certain elevation, and that accordingly no one should be allowed to build higher than that limit, This is not the best way to meet the dif- floulty, 1f our fire engines are not power- fulenough let them be made s0; and let every building raised above a certain ele- vation be absolutely five proof.
