Ws invite attention 10 The report Of the
Scpate Committee on Vice and lmmoralfy
which We publish To-day. Il 10 raml The pen
Of Mr.. Price, who has been sadly abused al
being The ycbampiop of the aSum party
But such things as this report show, the force
of public sentiment under our Democratic
institutions, and this is a much stronger en-
.gine of reform than oil the bonds and pen.
'sliies Of statutes. In England this popular
element has fully illustrated lie force, The
principles .ofpa.llamentary reform were some
gears ago discussed by obscure but intelli.
gent men, until the naughty arisiocraey were
forced TO abandon such abuses as the rotten,
borough system, and 10 enlarge the privileges
ofihe elective franchise. The bill was pass
ed in pieces, but fhe work was well DONE
Wellington The true representative of the ar
isiocracy was unable to stem the torrent, and
gave way. Sir Robert Peel was in like man.
'ner forced to go with the current in that
measure, as we'll as on tbs bill TO take from
Catholics the disabilities of the old law of
bigotry. The law TO give the people cheap
bread was in like manner forced over the
ministries OF Wellington aud Peel; for these
men knew what il meant when Macauley
arose as the champion of The peoples cause
on the midnight. Of the memorable debate on
the bill for parliamentary reform, and, while
London was a sea of infuriated delegates
gathered from all England lashing their rage
against the walls Of, parliament, he declared
TO the trembling Lords aud Commons Through
parliament or M rpdriameat this bill must pass
We do not mean by this that men like MIR.
Price have been driven to change their views
on the subject Of temperance reform, but
that retorm must not depend on an act of as
-sembIy alone, but on The strength with which
the cause, upon lis inherent merit, appeals
10 the popular sentiment of right and neces-
siiy. Legislation in itself cannot make men
sober nor keep hem SO. any more than it
can create wealth by tariffs and banks; and it
can only be effectual for good while ii keeps
even pace with popular sentiment, True, it
must keep up to the best tone of public NOR
ais, and must protect the reformer in his
work of progressive good but the moralist
must lay the foundation 10 sustain the super
structure Of The legislator.
The more Democratic a government the
greater will be the license for wrong, just as
in a republic there is also greater scope
for good Men live faster as they live with
more freedom, and the character developes
itself early and fully.

ANOTHER SCHEME Broken DoWS.-Sen
tor Cooper has been appointed Preside2t oil
Col. kinney's Central American Expedition.
The project appears to have fzzled out rapid
iy since The suspicion of flibustersm has
tainted 1t, whether justly or not we do not
know. There is one fact certain, the break,
ing up OF all the schemes for the acquisition
Of territoty by riorce, shows that theft has mol
yet become SO popular as to be incorporated
as a principle in our national ethics. In the
palmy days Of lhe Grecian Republic, steal,
ing was not considered . crime, but our re-
public rests on better moral foundations than
the Grecian, and gives. therefore promise of
longer endurance. 1.
