remembers General Jack ton rerr woll. It is
a singular fact (hat all these olil folk are
quite as juvenile as if they had been born in
the present age, and their reininincenceA are
exceedingly entertaining. We print t?*-day
Mveral interviews of historio interest and
irorth.
Mr. Pater Cooper** Ideas.
We think the most sensible man in the
oountry is Mr. Pet*r Cooper, for he is almost
the only man who ever declined a Presiden
tial nomination. It in true that a nomina
tion by a Greenback Convention is more
insulting than complimentary, yet the temp- |
tution to accept even doubtful honors i
is great As such a sensible man Mr. '
Cooper's opinions on public matters have 1
acquired new value, and his views, given to
the Hzbald to-day, will be read with interest ,
and, we trust, with profit. We do not agree
with Mr. Cooper in everything. lie says
that the need of the country is "a man?an
honest, constitution-respecting. God-fearing i
man." Wo trust that America has many
luch men, and we know thut Peter Cooper is ;
one of them. But no man can redeem tlio
oountry from its present distresses. The need
is not a man, but a law. The necessity is
for an organic change in the government, an
amendment to the constitution which shall
check the ambition of an Executive to con
tinue hia own rule, and which must be the
only basis and foundation of a true civil ser
vice reform. Mr. Cooper still thinks that
"Grant has a better chance than any
body else." He should reflect upon the
logical consequences of this fatal admission.
Grant was a good man when he was first
elected, but he was spoiled as a President by
the vast vista of ambition which the possi
bility of his seoond or third election opened
to his dazzlod eyes. What the country
needs is not an honest man alono, but laws
whioh shall enforce honesty, put an effec
tual bar to the continued rule of any official,
and guarantee the right of the people to the
control of their own government.
Vandalism at thb Exninrnow.?Benjamin
Hayden, tliQ English painter, aocused his
countrymen of Vandalism. If George and
Betsy went to see a statue, he said, they
would write their names upon it, so that
Tom and Jane, when they came, would see
that Betsy and George had been there first.
We regret to learn that this passion for dis
figuration and destruction has been shown
at the Centennial Exposition. It is not
American, for this country has always
respected art, and our people have
not the foolish ambition to seek in
glorious distinction on the principle
of the ambitious youth who fired
the Ephesian dome. We are glad to learn
that these Vandals in Philadelphia have met
with speedy punishment, and trust that tho
examples made will put nn end to the crime.

ANTICIPATION OF THH FINANCIAL CRISIS?THE
INFLUENCING* CAUSES.
[From tho London Standard (city article), May 0.]
We have recolved (lies of Buonos Ay res papers to tbo
9th of April. One of tho chief topics of discussion Is
tho financial poeltltion. On this point the Buenos
Ay res Standard uses languages more alarmist evon
than that which wo quoted last week. In Its number
of tho 9th nit. it quotes tho corresponding prices of
exchange, oedulas and national bonds on April 7, 1875,
and April 8, 1870, and makes oni exchango to bo six
per oent lowor: national bonds, twenty-three; cedillas,
sixteen, sud roads and bridges, twenty-two. Every
thing, In tact, hits fallen, It says, snvo tax on. "All
hopo of relief by any pro,cct or scliemo Is abandoned;
the conviction is settled that things must go down, down,
down to tbo very bottom before tl.oro can Ik- any rcc.o- i
verv. Everything unsound. whether it bo a feMMtM, ,
trade, bank, mortpago or newspaper, must give way. ,
Any concorn that requires artificial aid or Uristorina j
op la doomed; six months more of such times us iho j
present and hie jacrt over tho door. Kxcbango at 4S |
to-day means mischief; every ono who understands !
this market knows It, and, unless the authors ol tho I
projects can succeed In putting the exchange up to 62d, <
we can see no effective help given to the market |
As to fixing the prlco of cedulaa, beyond the holder* ;
or mortgagers no one In the market cares what their j
pnoo Is, but every ono Is Interested In exchange. ,
Vlowed In any light the week Is worse than tho last,

Tlila statement wna handed to tbe government pros* i
ruling officers, and they pave Conkltng a written un- !
dertuklng of Immunity on condition ot his returning to j
tfils country when wanted. General Hamilton, United
Hlates Marshal here, went to Windsof, Canada,
with Suporvtfor Matthews, In pursuance of eorrcspon- ;
dence going on lor weeks, found and obtained from j
Conkllng an oral statement of what be would be abl? to

lie several times varied, but the written statement Is j
lull ir.rt rlcar. exposing completely the entire vlllany of 1
tho Whiskey King and some ot the principal acts ol i

The statement *ets forth, among other things, that a |

formed part of the ring, being discharged, were rein- I
Ftato<l by the personal Influence of an ex Senator, and j
that a lending organizer of the republican party of this

The lawyer* who have the statement of Conkllng In
hand refuse to say anything about It, or to gltrit any
part or even a summary ot it for publication, declaring
It would be a breach of faith. Tho reason for tills is, It
Is supposed, that it Is (eared Conkllng cannot bo
