The curious part of the story isthat -General Robert E. Lee was resolved upon for President of the Republic of Cubft, ?ad the position offered him for ten years." We are. further assured that "the documents offering General Lee the position of president have been forwarded to bim." ; _A New York mathematician has figured up the extent of the business which was done in gold ia that city on Friday, the 24th of Sep? tember. Tho sales amounted to 1500,000,000, and allowing sixteen dollars to an ounce, ant}, sixteen ounces to the pound, and two thousand pot?ods to the ton, and one ton to each cart, it would require a thousand carts to move lt; and .Bowing ^twenty feet to each horse and cart, the string of carts would be about eight miles long. - But the gold was not really bought and sold, for the gamblers never intended*)? de? liver a dollar of lt. They were only betting on 4fee price. -When Napoleon the Third drove out for the 1 first time after his recert$j|angerous illness, he fainted after riding for a quarter of an hour. A i . very. strong' dose of. cognac, administered to : him by Dr. Corvisart, who was with him in the ; same carriage,pastored him to a little vivaci? ty, but, during most of the ride, he was unable to open his eyes. The Empress?, who was at first lu the carriage following that of the Em? peror, turned ?eadly pale upon hearing what had happened to her consort, and she insisted Upon entering his carriage. Very few cheers 1 greeted the Imperial couple during the ride I through the city. -A correspondent of the London Dally News, writing from New York City, gives a < picture of the shameful corruption which pre- ? vails among the customhouse officers at that ? port. He asserts that his baggage was sub .jjeeted to r. most rigid examination; tho In? spector' priert into his boots and poked bl? fin- ' gers into the bottles of pomatum, ''because," * he observed, "watches and Jewelry may be 1 , concealed anywhere."1 Some gloves and a few i "boxes of cigarettes were discovered, and on J these the traveller was obliged to pay a duty. ( But not to the government alone, for the j clerks, as well as the Inspector, smoked the , cigarettes, and the latter begged a box for a - cousin, asked for a pair of gloves, and, to clap the climax, intimated that through his inter- ! terencethe duties paid had been considerably lighter th?n the law provided, and with a ' greedy, cunning look, he said, uNow, don't 1 you think V-and the victim "responded with t some dollars," when the officer was seen no i more. Perhaps some of the color in this plc- < ture ls due to the contempt which most Eng- ( lishmen feel lor the customs of this "blarsted country, you know;" but after making all . requisite allowances, enough remains to form a forcible argument in favor of a radical reform in our civil service. -A Washington letter says: "The city Is filling up. The floating population is drifting back to its former haunts. Lobbyists, black. 1 legs and adventurers of all descriptiono arc 1 sweeping down upon the National capital like ' buzzards upon a carrion. The " Rings " mu?- i tiply. It must not be supposed that whiskey i alone has a ring. Every State has one, or more. A " Ring" ls formed to get one Indi- : vidual into office, or to get another out. ** Bings * control all the appointments. They make and unmake postmasters and revenue 1 officers. They have, or claim to have, at least, 1 the private ear of the President. They are ' on intimate terms with Boutwcll, Delano i and Creswell. They say "Boutwell told 1 me to-day that he would remove so- i and-so at once," or 11 have fixed it , aU right with Creswell.' Win nine ca-es out i Of ten the men who compose these 'Rings' are unknown, irresponsible beings. The * more you know of them the less likely you ' would be to trust them wjth anything less 1 movable than a red-hot stove. Who supports ' them, nobody knows, and some persons prob? ably would not eire to have known. The cor- ] respondence and ca-rn accounts of one of these I concerns would no dotti t be spicy, if not start- i ling reading. The meant? they use to accom? plish ends are not less Involved In mystery. We can only see that those who stay the long? est at the capital, and thus get the "last word," generally triumph over opposing "Rings." It ls not safe to return home with simply a ver? bal promise from the President. Such prom? ises are now quoted below par. They arc apt to be forgotten, and to be distributed indis? criminately; and as "the longer pole knocks down the most persimmons," so do thc tallest and most persistent liars succeed In carrying the day." _ The Confederate Armies. The New York World publishes the state? ment of the secretary of the Southern His? torical Society, confirmed by Adjutant-Gen? eral Samuel Cooper, that the effective strength of the Confederate armies was never greater than 200,000 men, and re? marks that "at the time of Lee's surrender "but 100,000 Confederates were in the field, "in opposition to a Union army a million "strong." The New York Tribune copies thc article of the World, and expresses the firm conviction that "the Confederacy never "put 100,000 men in line of battle at any "moment." The Tribune says further that the Confederacy had not 50,000 men in its encampments around Manassas when Mc? Clellan stood "inactive and irresolute" for months before those encampments "at the "head of 150,000 to 200,000 of the best men "that ever shouldered arms." The Tribune lays upon McClellan the whole blame and shame of three long years of devastating war, and declares that McClellan, had he been "a flt commander, would have demol "ished the Confederacy in 1862." Upon this point we quote the words of the Tribune: "There ls now no decent pretext for "con? cealing or disguising the truth. We hold that McClellan had ample force to have whipped Lee in fair fight-a force that toouM have whipped him inevitably, if their General had had the pluck te fight-ney, thal did whip him (at Malvern Hill) whenever their General on his gunboat could natslonger prevent their fighting-and that only a flt commander for such an army was required to Insure the de? molition of the Confederacy In 18G2. We hold that, while McClellan was constantly calling for more men, he never gave those he had a fair chance at the enemy, and that they would have taken Richmond directly after Fair Oaks, and again after Malvern Hill, If he had not pre? vented." These admissions are frank and signifi? cant; but the truth of the Tribune is not always the truth of history. There, was enough of .timidity and lethargy in the Con? federate military councils to make us unwil? ling to cast the first stone. The^outh. at least, did not blame McClellan, nor under? rate his worth as a thorough soldier, an ear? nest patriot and an honest man. The Young Napoleon nnderstood,"*far better than the Tribune, the weakness of his forces. "We only express the general opinion of the sol? diery of the South when we say that McClel? lan did tbe Confederacy far more injury by converting a dispirited mob into a thorough? ly efficient army than he could have doue by a premature "On to Richmond." Had McClellan hurled his raw battalions against the untrained but martial troops of the Con? federacy, the glorious tile of the first Ma? nassas would have been told again, and Mr. Gladstone would not have erred in declaring that "Mr. Jefferson Ira vis had created a na? tion.'' From McClellan alone the army of the Potomac gained the steadiness, coull - dence and discipline which saved its banners from trailing in the blood-slaked dust of many a hlrd-fought field. From him the Northern army gained the qualities which enabled it to the last to assimilate the new levies which came thick and fast, making , of the raw recruit with unwonted rapidity a trusty veteran soldier.. And if the irresolution and inactivity of j McClellan were the only reason why the Con- J federacy was not "demolished in 1862," is it not somewhat strange that his immediate successors met with no better fortune ? The braggart Pope was defeated more disastrously ( at Manassas than McClellan was at "Rich- 1 mond. And when the fears of the adminis- 1 tration were thoroughly aroused and McClel- ' lan again set his squadrons in the - field, the ' Confederate army was checked at Sharps: 1 burg. <Tlie wave of invasion broke at the ' foot of the living rampart which McClellan builded up, but even the master spirit was ; powerless to arrest tlie backward sweep of 1 the?tide. At Fredericksburg, when the ( 100,000 soldiers of th& Army of Northern ' Virginia had dwindled away to threc-foujths )f that number, Burnside was smashed and 1 i shattered and driven over the river. Later still, at Chancellorsville, Hooker, who grasp- ( Kl the baton which had been snatched from ? ? he hand of Burnside, was smitten on tlie lank and "hurled back to his entrench- ] nents. The conquering anny was*broken, 1 iruised and scattered, whether led by s McDowell, Pope, Burnside. Hooker-or Mc- 1 Nellan. At Gettysburg General Meade won 'or the Federals their first great success in ? ;he East. Even then the Army of Northern 1 Virginia, terrible in defeat, watched the memy unmoved for two dark days, and sul? lenly retired. When thc throw had been ? made and lo?t; when Virginia calling for ' ier children would not be comforted: when 1 ?riere, waa mourning in every homestead, 1 ind a pall of gloom overhung the wliole of 1 mr sunny South; even then General Meade ' lid not demolish the Confederacy. At Wil? lemen, at Spottsylvania and at Cold Har- j ?or, the Confederate army killed and wou.ided a greater number of the enemy than there were in its own ranks. And when thc final battle was fought and the war-worn Captain of Hie Host yielded up his spotless sword, only a pitiful remnant was left of the army of gallant soldiers whom Mc? Clellan learned to resum?* in the marshes } of thc Chickahominy, in sight of the spires t of Richmond. ^ Thc Tribune has said a foolish thing be- | cause of its political prejudice against a ? Democratic soldier. McClellan did fail: but so failed eacli one of his srfecessors, until ; the 100,000 brave Confederates of 1862 liad become the weary 20,000 of 1865. And for each one of thc Generals who followed McClellan neave waa done, in money and In nen, than was allowed to the mau who created thc Grand Army of the Union. iVith the means at his command McClellan j iccomplished more than could have been iccomplished, with the same means, by any me or by all of his successors-the butcher 1 Grant included. As the Tribune says, there is no decent pretext- for concealing or disguising the truth. Could the gaps in the ranks of the Confederate-army have been filjed; could F we have drawn on Germany and England and Ireland for recruits ; could the men in the field have had from the skulkers and idlers at home the support and the succor which it was their solemn duty to give; the Army of Northern Virginia would never have been conquered. As it was, thc end did not come until our army was outnum? bered ten to one; until our divisions had become brigades, our brigades regiments, our regiments companies; until the little band of heroes who still clung together was battered and crushed by the brute force of numbers. The Tribune doubtless has it more at heart to disparage General McClellan than to praise the South ; but if it continue to preach the gospel of our weakness and the strength of our foe, it will compel us to believe that, duriug the war at least, on each pair of Southern legs did march six doughty Yankees. The Strike and the Striker?. A colored man made an agreemeut to work on Adger's wharf at one dollar and a half a day. Yesterday morning, as he was about to begin work, some colored men, representing themselves to be members of the Longshoremen's Protective Association, went up to him and said that they would beat him to death, if he dared to work for less than two dollars and a half a day. They said besides that at night, when the la? borers on the wharf were going home, they would whip every one of them for not dry? ing the orders of the association. The colored man to whom they spoke, and whom they threatened, was so alarmed that he left the wharf and went up town. This statement was made by the man himself in the hearing of the writer. For the intimidation of this colored man ; for the riotous conduct and assaults of the earlier days of last week ; as well as for ?he insolent blustering of Saturday night, the Longshoremen's Protective Association is alone responsible. The association had the right to make rules to govern its own mem? bers, and could punish any of them by fine or expulsion for an infringement of its re? gulations. When the society, however, de? cided that the longshoremen should re? ceive two and a half dollars a day-work? ing only a certain number of hours-and endeavored to prevent, and did prevent, by threat and actual violence, inoffensive men from working for less than the prescribed price, they transcended their powers and interfered, in a mannner both illegal and unwarrantable, between the workman and his employer. This is not a question of race or color; it applies to white and black alike. Every man may obtain as much as he can for his labor, and the employer judges for himself whether he shall or shall not give the work? man the wages for which he asks. When the bargain is once made, whether the wages be twenty-five cents a day or twenty five dollars a day, no man or body of men can lawfully prevent, by intimidation, the carrying ont ol the bargain. These lc:.^dhoremen who bully and l>eat men who are working honestly for a living, are the enemies of the public peace, and they are no less the enemies of the work? ingman. There are hundreds of colored men in Charleston who are willing to work X a dollar or a dollar and u half a day less than the association price. They have wives and children for whose daily bread they are ready to toil and sweat. The wharf-owners are prepared to employ them. When they attempt to go to work they are met by a mob of associated long? shoremen, and are greeted with a shower of brickbats, a blow with a club, or a thrust with a "knife. They must allow their fami? lies to starve, or else work in danger of their lives. All that wc ask for is fair play. Let every man work who will at the best wages ho ian get. To refuse this may be Radical doctrine, but it is not the doctrine of any respectable men in the State, whatever their color or condition. The striking longshore? men and their Radical abettors are now strirlng'to starve thc frugal and i ndustri ous laborer. The law of the question is perfectly clear. Vien who assemble together for purposes of ntimidation and violence are guilty of riot )ns conduct, and would be severely punish ;d if the city authorities were impartial in bought or courageous in action. As it is, he protection given to the laborers has leen just too late to be effectual: just weak mough to make the rioters believe that the tuthoritics wink tit their lawlessness, and, o prevent it, will do no more than they eau ?elp. It is to be hoped that tlie Mayor will ii time know his duty and do it. If he mould not, and the existing order of things jontinue, we must look to other quarters for he security of our merchants, thc welfare of mr commerce, and the rights of the work ug man. WK would direct attention to the ajile rommunication in to-day's NEWS, contrast tig the present State government with those vhich have preceded it, and .suggesting a neans to check its playful eccentricities. iVe hope to hear further from "Anti-State [loud." TO-DAY the State elections take place in Pennsylvania and Ohio. The Democracy ire confident of success, and we hope to chronicle in our next issue the glad tidings )f the election of Geo. H. Pendleton and Ysa Packer.
