The matter under diicastion is the whereabouts ol certain important docaments which were placed in a small track and deposited io some hole or corner of the War Depart ment nine years ago. The trunk is there the finding of tbe eonrt-martial ia there, but tbe evidence has vanished. Who it the barglar, and why was the burglary committed! These are the question wbioh the country wants answered, and w hicb, it is to be presumed, the aforesaid Investigating eommittes are trjiog to answer. Why not, then, investigate in tbe free of day, and not behind bolts and bars, as though a plot of high treason were on foot! A tclcgram from London brings a tnmor to the Afoot that the United States have leased several of the K a rile islands. These islands extend in an irregular line thrjngh the North Pacific ocean between tbe tout hern extremity of Eamschatka and the Japanese island of Yesso. Thej are twenty-two in number, nineteen 01 them belongiog to Russia tbe area ol these latter beiog estimated at 3,843 qoare miles, with a population not ex eeeding three hundred souls. All are under the control of theRngso-Ameri-ean company, bnt since 1781 no tribute has been collected there. .The Eu riles are of volcanic origin; the soil i barren, the vegetation poor, and the productions are limited to tbe furs of foxes, wolves, seals and beavera. The only possible use onr Government can have for thii unproductive property, is to convert it into a naval station, or coal depot for sUamers ;. but as the navigation in the vicini'y of the islands is. said to be ex ceedingly dangerous, we question whether tbe arrangement can be made to pay Thk fecond batch of VKo-Elux" prisoners have been'eeatenced to various degrees of panisbment, and tbe Charleston Dmmhead Court has edjonrced. Thr whole trial bas been characterized by tbe name illibeiality, illegality and t-ranny which was manifested at its ont set. Tbe counsel or the defdose, in hU final nmniog -ap showed plainly that the "Ku-Klni" outrages were not tbe result of any general conspiracy, as charged, and were not upheld by tbe public tentimrn'; that the prisoners had been deuied tbe immemoii.l right of trial by a jury of their peer.-; that the manner of their arrest was unlawful and tyrannous tbat the chief witnesses for the prosecution were notoiioosly corrupt; and tbat the object of the "conspiracy," where it existed, was inertly self defer.se agiust the marauding Grant miliiia. And yet the intelligent jmy aud subservient Judge thought otherwise, and remanded such of the remaining prisoners as could not procute bail. While these unfortunate American citizens are languishing in jail, without any prospect of release, their poverty-striken and Wretched families are toiling tn the neglected fields, with merely snch strength as woman's faith and childhood's bop can afford, and striving to avert the approach ef starvation. In the towns, business is dead; and on the farms desolation reigns supreme. No wonder that the S rath -ardently it dorses, with all tbe enrey of despair, any nomination which promises to compass the downfall ct the present military oligarchy. Washington advices show that by common consent the partisan gathering at the State Department, Saturday, to diaensa a vital international question, is declared to have been a grave mistake. Republicans denounce it equally with Demoorats, and many friends of the Administration have been estranged or rendered indignant thereby. Grant is said to be "tired and disgusted," and Fish excessively "morti3ed" at the condition cf affairs, as well tbey may be. Tbe rumors of Grant's possible withdrawal are becoming more frequent and tangible, and this step is looked npon in many Badical quarters as a matter worthy of setioui consideration. Among tbe substitutes who are mentioned, Colfax, Blaise and BoCTWELL are prominent. As the anx iety among the faithful in regard to Phil adelphia increases, the scorn of Cincinnati decreases, and all the Radicals at Washington are now to be seen discussing the chance of Mr. Grkk-lkt's eltctioa with great solemnity. Gkant professes to be hopeful, on the rupposition tbat tbe Democrats wonld not touch the Cincinnati ticket, and then the Liberals would retnrn to the fold. Colfax is understood to favor a "conciliatory policy," in the hope of achieving this result. In this be is supported by many Administrationists; but Cbandler aud others counsel applying the knife to all who have rebelled. Sumner appears indisposed to talk abont the subject. Ha regrets that the Convention did not concur distinctly with his views on tbe civil rights question, and will not deo'iare himself until after the Philadelphia Conc'ave has adj umed. Meanwhile, the work of political proscription has oommenoed, and on Monday General Cobcrn dismissed E. V. Smaixrt, who was clerk of the Honse Military Committee, and is one ol tbe correspondents of tbe Tribune, fur the reason that he soppoitcd the Cincinnati ticket. EX-SK.1ATOB VILUin ALLEN. Much bas appeared in tbe Gbant or gans relative to the position of this old Democrat io wheel-horse, and tbat our readers may have a fair understanding, we copy tbe following from Mr. Allen's own organ, tbe Caillicothe Advertuer, of t esterday : "The aense of the country regarding the approaching election was graphically ktattd by onr own vtnerable ex-Lioited State Senator, Wm. Allen, on Tiiday l.at, when some Grantites undertook to iutervitw him regarding tbe nomination .,f Greeley. Said tbe old chieftain, 'If it is the only way to wrest the govern meat oat of the binds of tbe present Ad' ministration, aa a patrijtic act, I would rote for any eligible white man or re spectable aaddle-solored negro to beat Grant."' CONGRESSIONAL. The Senate yesterday passed the West Point appropriation bill. The amnesty bill then came np, the question being on Mr. Eumoer's motion to substitute tbe supplementary civil rights bill for tbe bill as it came from the Honse. The am nesty bill was added to the civil rights bill, and a motion to strike out the latter negatived by the casting vote of the Vice PresHent. The amendment as amended was then rejected, 27 to 2d. Tbe vote brought the House amnesty bill again before the Senate. Mr. Sumner then moved his civil rights bill as an smaudment merely. The vote w yeas, 23; nays, 28. The Vioe President voted in the affirmative, so tbat the amendment was sgreed to. The bill was rejooted by a vote of 32 to 22, two-thirds not voting in the affirmative. In the House the Senate bill author- zing the Secretary of War to admit six Japanese yonths to tbe West Point Academy was laid on the table. By a vote of 67 yeas to 113 nays, tbe Honse refused to table the bill allowing transferable land warrants for homesteads to discharged soldiers. The South Carolina contested election case was taken np, and Mr. Wallace, tbe sitting member, declared enti tled to tbe seat, and tbe contestant al lowed $2,154 for his expenses The tariff bill was considered in committee. Tbe duty on salt was fixed at eight cents per one hundred pounds. Sole leather was (eft as in the bill. Upper leather was axed twenty per cent, ad valorem. The tariff on ehiocory was fixed at one cent per pound. The committee rose, having disposed of twenty lines of the bill. THE POPCLAB QUALITIRR or .nit. GBBELEY. From tbe St. Louis Republican. The chorus of foroed laughter with which the B idical party sainted tbe nomination of Horace Greeley has ceased as suddenly as it beitn, add the inmates of Grant's breeches pockets find themselves confronted w ith a very palpable and very disagreeable fact which is. tbat the Cincinnati Convention has selected a candidate whom 1t will be exceedingly difficult to beat. "Principles, not men," is a good motto, yet in a government resting solely npon the popular will tbe popular choice must always depend to a great extent npon the personal characteristics and anteaedente of the nominee. It is difficult, if not impossible, ta bring the masses to support a man whose ideaaaod actions prove him not in eympa'hy wilh them'eive who is either above or below tbe psople, not one of tbem. Toe people are tbe real rulers of a fiee conn-try, and ffbey have a right to. aud do demand that tbe person to whom they delegate executive authority shall be closely al'ied to them in feeling an well as io name. This is pre-eminently the ease with Mr. Greeley; indeed, we doubt whether there is anoi her prominent individual in tbe land who comb'nes within himself so many of th e qnaliiixs which go to make np an available candidate in the best aense of that much abused phrase. He is a self-made man. Commencing at the lowest round of the ladder, without tbe aid of friends or money, he has climbt d slowly and stesdily to the top, and stands to-day tbe acknowledged brad of American journalism. No ectiror living or dead has exercised such a profound aud lasting inflaence npon the public mind, or contributed so much to the shape and color of public affairs as Horace Greeley. Tbe political history of the United States for the pt thirty years may be traced through the columns which he has controlled, and that history owes moch of its pith and purpose to the doctiiDes which he bas inenlcated. The pen which he wie'ds with such signal ability is a recognized power a power that neither presidents nor Congress a are willing to defy. The poor printer boy has grown into a giant, and tbe vic-toiies which he bas won in the domain ot thought, are not only purer bnt more enduring than the blood-stained triumphs of the sword. His career is a noble example to American yonth, teaching them tbat neither poverty nor ad-veise circumstances are a barrier to indomitable will, persistent industry, 8j stematic economy, and honorable amid ion. He is sn honest man. Differ as we may in regard to his opinions not one of which he has ever attempted to conceal -'none can deny him tbe credit of beiog thoroughly Biueere and unselfish. Time mod aga'n he might have increased h 8 pipulaury and his oash by drifting with thepopn ar current instead of opposing i ; but whenever any plioy, S ate or Na-t onal, bas seemed to him wrong or nowise, be has never hesitated to tight it, no matter bow desperate the odds, or how doubtful the result. Occupjiog a position where he bad only to wink at iniquity to secure a share of tbe spoils, not even his bitterest enemies have ever dared ac cuse him of the smalloat taint of corruption. His bands are clean, and every dollar he poshceses is the fruit of honest toil. He is a Democrat in tbe broadest mean- ins of the word. A child of tbe people. he believes in and works fur the people, and entertains a healthy dislike for aristocratic inttitntions at home as well as abroad He always has been and always will be the determined foe of those ami republican tendencies wbioh manifest thr nisei ves more or less in all the great centres ol weaun ana population, tir-i Heists as strenuously ss Jefferson did, npon "'equal and exact justice to all. and exclosie ptii'eges to none;" and the liuesand niouopo.irs whicb have gained such a firm to m hold through State aud fedrral legislation have iouud io tim an ntauonist w ho can neither be b jugbt noi f i toned The reforms of oue kiud and another which be nas aovoca'ea in jea'S gone by, did not tpriog from a vaue diai istaci ion with existing usage, bui rather from an earnest des.re to improve ho condition of society, and laave his f llow-beings better than he fuuod them We may smile sometime at a pbilau- tbropy Dased upon too nign an estimate of boman nature, but it is impossible not to reepeot and lore a man of geneiou-imaulses and unbounded fiiih, who is willing to fact liiicule and abuse io the hi'peol benefiting mankind. It is through tbe efforts of such vigorons tUn kers aud bold experimenters tbat the world finds mateiial lor substantial p ogress. The Democracy of Mr. Greeley shown itself, tco, in a p c ouod de'eience for the popular will, legitimately expressed. Whatever may be nis own views and however zealously he has urged tbem, be has always been ready to ield cheerful acquiescence to the decision of the ballot- box. AOe oajonei onsiness, iv rtu and South, be bas stigmatized as it deserved, biid declared tbat political victories gained by military interference, were in-ti.iiti.lv worse tbau defeats for the nartv whicb sanctioned them. If elected Presi dent, he will be the executor, not the maker of law; the chief magistrate of a sovereign people, not a weak combina ti'-n of .11 the viens of royalty with none of its virtues. 1 he traits we have mentioned require no proof; tbey are reocgcized and appre ciated; by every man. woman and cnuu n the country, and tbey have civen Horace Greeley a hold upon tbe pop alar heart which will roll np a mountain of majorities for him next November. Two New Haven Republicans, loq. " Well, Jones, this nomination of Greeley is one of the laughable incidents of the age. Easily defeated don't yon think o!" "I don'e know." resoonded the other, slowly ; " 1 feel like tbe man who ottdted to bet bis nor He a speed against an j thing that carried lour legs.

Considerable excitement was created in Jersey City yesterday by the unloading of a cargo of baled rags from the ship Confidence, gathered from various towns in Italy.

Tbe Democratic State Convention closed its labors at a late hour last night. A full delegation to tbe Baltimore Convention was appointed, and William A. Qaarles and John M Fleming were selected as Presidential electors for the State at large the former a Democrat and the latter a Whig. Delegates from several of tbe Congressional districts chose district electors all Democrats. Tho remaining districts will appoint h-reafter, whea there will be a full Democratic electoiial ticket in the field. Tbe Liberal Republican State Conven tion meets in this city on the 20;h inst. The Executive Committee have eng. gested'to it tbe appointment of a Liberal electoral ticket. Whether this will be done, now tbat the Democratic Convention has indorsed the Cincinnati ticket, is a matter of speculation. To-day, just before the close of the Democratic Con vention, Governor .Brown appeared and made a speech, in which he admitted that the Democratic party were in the minority, and could not succeed of itself. He approved the aotioa of the Convention relative to tin nominations, and ex pressed his belief that its sucoess wonld crown their efforts. He desired, however, the preservation of the organization of the Democrat io party. EXPLOSION AND FIRE. A Third of Somerset, Pennsysyania, Destroyed by Fire.

DEAD DUMAS. From the Boston Poat.J A tonohingly simple, quaint aud impressive ceremony bas just been enacted at the litt'e village of Villers Coterets, not far from Paris, the details of which were published in the Pof a few days since. Alexandre Dumas the elder, after lying for more than a year in a temporary resting place at Puy, on the Norman coast, during which the tramp of Uhlans and the march of German legions have paesed alike over his grave and throngh his birthplace, has been re-interred by loving hands near the spot where he first saw the light, and whence be started out, a boy, to sk fme i.d fortune in the brilliant Capital. This genial and sunny spirit passed from life am d the darkness of tbe war storm, and now that France is once moie at peace, he is laid tendeily ia the ground a'ready consecrated by the remains of bis parents, where he himself de-ired to take h s last long sleep. His gittd son raid finely at the grave, tbat be did not desire to le bury his father in the winter, when all ttrnga spoke of death, bat in tbe spring time, wben everything ppoke of resurrection; and it was a beautiful April day, wben all nature was in bud and in the losr.y yonth of its ou'coming, that tbe group of friends and admirers gathered in the quaint hamlet of Villers Coterets to pay a lat tribute to one of the brightest humorists, most fertile fancies and greatest be-uts tbat France has produced. The warm snnsbine and tbe green grasa, the g'oup of ladi.s and geutiemen, toe unwonted bustle of tbe single village strert, tbeqneerold tavern teemirg with guests, gvt fe occasion iatber the aspect of a tn'e than i f a funeral; and Dumas tbe e d r, C"iil I be be conscious of tbe sneoe, would doubtless have been well conteut tn be greere I wi h the last farewell thus cheerily, with a loving smile in company with a regre fut tear. The onreniony was devoid of the nam 1 trappii g by which, in tte Old Worln, death is too often mooted as if to paio y tbe wueof tbe bereaved. A b i-f nerviie in ths peak gabled and stout-pillared village church, a primitive procession, wherein tbe coffin was carried by pallbearers to tbe gi ave-yatd, a panse before tbe little old-fashioned boosi where Do-mas was born, a few words of pi at errand a few drops of holy water epiiukied over the remaius by the priests, biitf and appropriate eulogies spoken by tbe open grave, with a touching response by tbe inheritor of DumWa name and genina, oonclnded the rites of the day. Oue of the speaker most truly said that the death of Dumas was a calamity to France. "His," sid Victor Hugo, in hi s letter to tbe son, regretting his abs-nce from ths last otreuiony, "was a great and good soul." Nothing mean or false found placa ia tbat larg, warm, cheiry heart. In his most rollicking fits of authorship, he was never downright coarse or vnljtar. His humor, exhiustless as tho Pierian epring never expended itself in lampoons on the living, and never once grew bitter at its sou roe. Ha was the least envious of men; with all his faults of overweening vanity, of irrepressible boastfulness, of thoughtless extravagance, of reokless indiscretion, he stood by his friends with a royal fidelity, and met his enemies face to face. He led a jolly, rollicking l;f-. gave misfortune tbe cut direct, and poured forth, from a brain wbioh nevm seems to bare known, from beginning to end, the sensation of weariness, fonr times as many romances as Scott, each and all of which are so many ties binding him to tbe affdotion of his countrymen and of all others who have passed delightful hours ia perusing tbem. It was well that critics, romancers, painters, actors, actresses, dramatists should assemble in the humble gravejaid to do biro tbe last regretful honcrs ; for he loved and fostered these children of art and genius, and was at once their Falt-aff. giv ng tbem excellent good cheer, and their Mentor, cordially guiding them in the paths of success. Ic was well, too. that the anthor of "Camila" should cav the last loving word over the grave of tne author t "Monte Cbrtto." FINAJNOJK AX?D TRACE riwawe auaal Mawcaia If aw Ywrfc New York, May 10.

TitK omnol ia getting; ready to alio tbat Grat has always been in favor of general amnesty and, only for the bad influence ef Mobton. he would bar been able to bring it about-long ago. The Journal will bring it abont (the show. we neaa) kmc arret. " Tuc Boax iuvesugatiog contmittee anting with closed doors. The matter under diicastion is the whereabouts ol certain important docaments which were placed in a small track and deposited io some hole or corner of the War Depart ment nine years ago. The trunk is there the finding of tbe eonrt-martial ia there, but tbe evidence has vanished. Who it the barglar, and why was the burglary committed! These are the question wbioh the country wants answered, and w hicb, it is to be presumed, the aforesaid Investigating eommittes are trjiog to answer. Why not, then, investigate in tbe free of day, and not behind bolts and bars, as though a plot of high treason were on foot! A tclcgram from London brings a tnmor to the Afoot that the United States have leased several of the K a rile islands. These islands extend in an irregular line thrjngh the North Pacific ocean between tbe tout hern extremity of Eamschatka and the Japanese island of Yesso. Thej are twenty-two in number, nineteen 01 them belongiog to Russia tbe area ol these latter beiog estimated at 3,843 qoare miles, with a population not ex eeeding three hundred souls. All are under the control of theRngso-Ameri-ean company, bnt since 1781 no tribute has been collected there. .The Eu riles are of volcanic origin; the soil i barren, the vegetation poor, and the productions are limited to tbe furs of foxes, wolves, seals and beavera. The only possible use onr Government can have for thii unproductive property, is to convert it into a naval station, or coal depot for sUamers ;. but as the navigation in the vicini'y of the islands is. said to be ex ceedingly dangerous, we question whether tbe arrangement can be made to pay Thk fecond batch of VKo-Elux" prisoners have been'eeatenced to various degrees of panisbment, and tbe Charleston Dmmhead Court has edjonrced. Thr whole trial bas been characterized by tbe name illibeiality, illegality and t-ranny which was manifested at its ont set. Tbe counsel or the defdose, in hU final nmniog -ap showed plainly that the "Ku-Klni" outrages were not tbe result of any general conspiracy, as charged, and were not upheld by tbe public tentimrn'; that the prisoners had been deuied tbe immemoii.l right of trial by a jury of their peer.-; that the manner of their arrest was unlawful and tyrannous tbat the chief witnesses for the prosecution were notoiioosly corrupt; and tbat the object of the "conspiracy," where it existed, was inertly self defer.se agiust the marauding Grant miliiia. And yet the intelligent jmy aud subservient Judge thought otherwise, and remanded such of the remaining prisoners as could not procute bail. While these unfortunate American citizens are languishing in jail, without any prospect of release, their poverty-striken and Wretched families are toiling tn the neglected fields, with merely snch strength as woman's faith and childhood's bop can afford, and striving to avert the approach ef starvation. In the towns, business is dead; and on the farms desolation reigns supreme. No wonder that the S rath -ardently it dorses, with all tbe enrey of despair, any nomination which promises to compass the downfall ct the present military oligarchy. Washington advices show that by common consent the partisan gathering at the State Department, Saturday, to diaensa a vital international question, is declared to have been a grave mistake. Republicans denounce it equally with Demoorats, and many friends of the Administration have been estranged or rendered indignant thereby. Grant is said to be "tired and disgusted," and Fish excessively "morti3ed" at the condition cf affairs, as well tbey may be. Tbe rumors of Grant's possible withdrawal are becoming more frequent and tangible, and this step is looked npon in many Badical quarters as a matter worthy of setioui consideration. Among tbe substitutes who are mentioned, Colfax, Blaise and BoCTWELL are prominent. As the anx iety among the faithful in regard to Phil adelphia increases, the scorn of Cincinnati decreases, and all the Radicals at Washington are now to be seen discussing the chance of Mr. Grkk-lkt's eltctioa with great solemnity. Gkant professes to be hopeful, on the rupposition tbat tbe Democrats wonld not touch the Cincinnati ticket, and then the Liberals would retnrn to the fold. Colfax is understood to favor a "conciliatory policy," in the hope of achieving this result. In this be is supported by many Administrationists; but Cbandler aud others counsel applying the knife to all who have rebelled. Sumner appears indisposed to talk abont the subject. Ha regrets that the Convention did not concur distinctly with his views on tbe civil rights question, and will not deo'iare himself until after the Philadelphia Conc'ave has adj umed. Meanwhile, the work of political proscription has oommenoed, and on Monday General Cobcrn dismissed E. V. Smaixrt, who was clerk of the Honse Military Committee, and is one ol tbe correspondents of tbe Tribune, fur the reason that he soppoitcd the Cincinnati ticket. EX-SK.1ATOB VILUin ALLEN. Much bas appeared in tbe Gbant or gans relative to the position of this old Democrat io wheel-horse, and tbat our readers may have a fair understanding, we copy tbe following from Mr. Allen's own organ, tbe Caillicothe Advertuer, of t esterday : "The aense of the country regarding the approaching election was graphically ktattd by onr own vtnerable ex-Lioited State Senator, Wm. Allen, on Tiiday l.at, when some Grantites undertook to iutervitw him regarding tbe nomination .,f Greeley. Said tbe old chieftain, 'If it is the only way to wrest the govern meat oat of the binds of tbe present Ad' ministration, aa a patrijtic act, I would rote for any eligible white man or re spectable aaddle-solored negro to beat Grant."' CONGRESSIONAL. The Senate yesterday passed the West Point appropriation bill. The amnesty bill then came np, the question being on Mr. Eumoer's motion to substitute tbe supplementary civil rights bill for tbe bill as it came from the Honse. The am nesty bill was added to the civil rights bill, and a motion to strike out the latter negatived by the casting vote of the Vice PresHent. The amendment as amended was then rejected, 27 to 2d. Tbe vote brought the House amnesty bill again before the Senate. Mr. Sumner then moved his civil rights bill as an smaudment merely. The vote w yeas, 23; nays, 28. The Vioe President voted in the affirmative, so tbat the amendment was sgreed to. The bill was rejooted by a vote of 32 to 22, two-thirds not voting in the affirmative. In the House the Senate bill author- zing the Secretary of War to admit six Japanese yonths to tbe West Point Academy was laid on the table. By a vote of 67 yeas to 113 nays, tbe Honse refused to table the bill allowing transferable land warrants for homesteads to discharged soldiers. The South Carolina contested election case was taken np, and Mr. Wallace, tbe sitting member, declared enti tled to tbe seat, and tbe contestant al lowed $2,154 for his expenses The tariff bill was considered in committee. Tbe duty on salt was fixed at eight cents per one hundred pounds. Sole leather was (eft as in the bill. Upper leather was axed twenty per cent, ad valorem. The tariff on ehiocory was fixed at one cent per pound. The committee rose, having disposed of twenty lines of the bill. THE POPCLAB QUALITIRR or .nit. GBBELEY. From tbe St. Louis Republican. The chorus of foroed laughter with which the B idical party sainted tbe nomination of Horace Greeley has ceased as suddenly as it beitn, add the inmates of Grant's breeches pockets find themselves confronted w ith a very palpable and very disagreeable fact which is. tbat the Cincinnati Convention has selected a candidate whom 1t will be exceedingly difficult to beat. "Principles, not men," is a good motto, yet in a government resting solely npon the popular will tbe popular choice must always depend to a great extent npon the personal characteristics and anteaedente of the nominee. It is difficult, if not impossible, ta bring the masses to support a man whose ideaaaod actions prove him not in eympa'hy wilh them'eive who is either above or below tbe psople, not one of tbem. Toe people are tbe real rulers of a fiee conn-try, and ffbey have a right to. aud do demand that tbe person to whom they delegate executive authority shall be closely al'ied to them in feeling an well as io name. This is pre-eminently the ease with Mr. Greeley; indeed, we doubt whether there is anoi her prominent individual in tbe land who comb'nes within himself so many of th e qnaliiixs which go to make np an available candidate in the best aense of that much abused phrase. He is a self-made man. Commencing at the lowest round of the ladder, without tbe aid of friends or money, he has climbt d slowly and stesdily to the top, and stands to-day tbe acknowledged brad of American journalism. No ectiror living or dead has exercised such a profound aud lasting inflaence npon the public mind, or contributed so much to the shape and color of public affairs as Horace Greeley. Tbe political history of the United States for the pt thirty years may be traced through the columns which he has controlled, and that history owes moch of its pith and purpose to the doctiiDes which he bas inenlcated. The pen which he wie'ds with such signal ability is a recognized power a power that neither presidents nor Congress a are willing to defy. The poor printer boy has grown into a giant, and tbe vic-toiies which he bas won in the domain ot thought, are not only purer bnt more enduring than the blood-stained triumphs of the sword. His career is a noble example to American yonth, teaching them tbat neither poverty nor ad-veise circumstances are a barrier to indomitable will, persistent industry, 8j stematic economy, and honorable amid ion. He is sn honest man. Differ as we may in regard to his opinions not one of which he has ever attempted to conceal -'none can deny him tbe credit of beiog thoroughly Biueere and unselfish. Time mod aga'n he might have increased h 8 pipulaury and his oash by drifting with thepopn ar current instead of opposing i ; but whenever any plioy, S ate or Na-t onal, bas seemed to him wrong or nowise, be has never hesitated to tight it, no matter bow desperate the odds, or how doubtful the result. Occupjiog a position where he bad only to wink at iniquity to secure a share of tbe spoils, not even his bitterest enemies have ever dared ac cuse him of the smalloat taint of corruption. His bands are clean, and every dollar he poshceses is the fruit of honest toil. He is a Democrat in tbe broadest mean- ins of the word. A child of tbe people. he believes in and works fur the people, and entertains a healthy dislike for aristocratic inttitntions at home as well as abroad He always has been and always will be the determined foe of those ami republican tendencies wbioh manifest thr nisei ves more or less in all the great centres ol weaun ana population, tir-i Heists as strenuously ss Jefferson did, npon "'equal and exact justice to all. and exclosie ptii'eges to none;" and the liuesand niouopo.irs whicb have gained such a firm to m hold through State aud fedrral legislation have iouud io tim an ntauonist w ho can neither be b jugbt noi f i toned The reforms of oue kiud and another which be nas aovoca'ea in jea'S gone by, did not tpriog from a vaue diai istaci ion with existing usage, bui rather from an earnest des.re to improve ho condition of society, and laave his f llow-beings better than he fuuod them We may smile sometime at a pbilau- tbropy Dased upon too nign an estimate of boman nature, but it is impossible not to reepeot and lore a man of geneiou-imaulses and unbounded fiiih, who is willing to fact liiicule and abuse io the hi'peol benefiting mankind. It is through tbe efforts of such vigorons tUn kers aud bold experimenters tbat the world finds mateiial lor substantial p ogress. The Democracy of Mr. Greeley shown itself, tco, in a p c ouod de'eience for the popular will, legitimately expressed. Whatever may be nis own views and however zealously he has urged tbem, be has always been ready to ield cheerful acquiescence to the decision of the ballot- box. AOe oajonei onsiness, iv rtu and South, be bas stigmatized as it deserved, biid declared tbat political victories gained by military interference, were in-ti.iiti.lv worse tbau defeats for the nartv whicb sanctioned them. If elected Presi dent, he will be the executor, not the maker of law; the chief magistrate of a sovereign people, not a weak combina ti'-n of .11 the viens of royalty with none of its virtues. 1 he traits we have mentioned require no proof; tbey are reocgcized and appre ciated; by every man. woman and cnuu n the country, and tbey have civen Horace Greeley a hold upon tbe pop alar heart which will roll np a mountain of majorities for him next November. Two New Haven Republicans, loq. " Well, Jones, this nomination of Greeley is one of the laughable incidents of the age. Easily defeated don't yon think o!"

DEAD DUMAS. From the Boston Poat.J A tonohingly simple, quaint aud impressive ceremony bas just been enacted at the litt'e village of Villers Coterets, not far from Paris, the details of which were published in the Pof a few days since. Alexandre Dumas the elder, after lying for more than a year in a temporary resting place at Puy, on the Norman coast, during which the tramp of Uhlans and the march of German legions have paesed alike over his grave and throngh his birthplace, has been re-interred by loving hands near the spot where he first saw the light, and whence be started out, a boy, to sk fme i.d fortune in the brilliant Capital. This genial and sunny spirit passed from life am d the darkness of tbe war storm, and now that France is once moie at peace, he is laid tendeily ia the ground a'ready consecrated by the remains of bis parents, where he himself de-ired to take h s last long sleep. His gittd son raid finely at the grave, tbat be did not desire to le bury his father in the winter, when all ttrnga spoke of death, bat in tbe spring time, wben everything ppoke of resurrection; and it was a beautiful April day, wben all nature was in bud and in the losr.y yonth of its ou'coming, that tbe group of friends and admirers gathered in the quaint hamlet of Villers Coterets to pay a lat tribute to one of the brightest humorists, most fertile fancies and greatest be-uts tbat France has produced. The warm snnsbine and tbe green grasa, the g'oup of ladi.s and geutiemen, toe unwonted bustle of tbe single village strert, tbeqneerold tavern teemirg with guests, gvt fe occasion iatber the aspect of a tn'e than i f a funeral; and Dumas tbe e d r, C"iil I be be conscious of tbe sneoe, would doubtless have been well conteut tn be greere I wi h the last farewell thus cheerily, with a loving smile in company with a regre fut tear. The onreniony was devoid of the nam 1 trappii g by which, in tte Old Worln, death is too often mooted as if to paio y tbe wueof tbe bereaved. A b i-f nerviie in ths peak gabled and stout-pillared village church, a primitive procession, wherein tbe coffin was carried by pallbearers to tbe gi ave-yatd, a panse before tbe little old-fashioned boosi where Do-mas was born, a few words of pi at errand a few drops of holy water epiiukied over the remaius by the priests, biitf and appropriate eulogies spoken by tbe open grave, with a touching response by tbe inheritor of DumWa name and genina, oonclnded the rites of the day. Oue of the speaker most truly said that the death of Dumas was a calamity to France. "His," sid Victor Hugo, in hi s letter to tbe son, regretting his abs-nce from ths last otreuiony, "was a great and good soul." Nothing mean or false found placa ia tbat larg, warm, cheiry heart. In his most rollicking fits of authorship, he was never downright coarse or vnljtar. His humor, exhiustless as tho Pierian epring never expended itself in lampoons on the living, and never once grew bitter at its sou roe. Ha was the least envious of men; with all his faults of overweening vanity, of irrepressible boastfulness, of thoughtless extravagance, of reokless indiscretion, he stood by his friends with a royal fidelity, and met his enemies face to face. He led a jolly, rollicking l;f-. gave misfortune tbe cut direct, and poured forth, from a brain wbioh nevm seems to bare known, from beginning to end, the sensation of weariness, fonr times as many romances as Scott, each and all of which are so many ties binding him to tbe affdotion of his countrymen and of all others who have passed delightful hours ia perusing tbem. It was well that critics, romancers, painters, actors, actresses, dramatists should assemble in the humble gravejaid to do biro tbe last regretful honcrs ; for he loved and fostered these children of art and genius, and was at once their Falt-aff. giv ng tbem excellent good cheer, and their Mentor, cordially guiding them in the paths of success. Ic was well, too. that the anthor of "Camila" should cav the last loving word over the grave of tne author t "Monte Cbrtto." FINAJNOJK AX?D TRACE riwawe auaal Mawcaia If aw Ywrfc New York, May 10.
