Hostility to Slavery.

The Daily Times said the other
day, that the plack republican party
did not contemplate .any hostil-
ity to slavery as it exists in the
Southern States" whereupon wri.
ter in the Syracuse Journal remarks:
'God forbid that The Times should
be authorized to make this declara.
ton. / undertake to say that the
Republicans ARE hostile to slavery
in the United States. The slave
holders SO understand them, and
they are not mistaken. The Re
publicans do purpose to curtail the
power of slavery in this Government,
not only by resisting its extension
into Free territory, but by setting
bounds to its influence at home. -
They would be recreant to their du-
ty and pretensions not 10 labor for

they have an immense increase to
their national debt, without a parti-

the faith Of Englishmen in Europe

frequently speak its mind on the
subject of the absurdities, the cheats,
and the fallacies Of European diplo-

fore he is barely over the threshold OF

ucated lawyer, but be has been in
public life ever since 1914. In that
year, be was in his State Legislature,
where he served two years, and de-
clined a reelection. In 1921, he
took his seat as Congressman, and
was in the House of Representatives
Just five sessions, or ten years. He
quilted Washington in 1881, in
March, to receive in May from the
hands of Gen. Jackson the mission to
Russia. He stayed there just as. long
as he has been in England three
years-and returned for three Sena>

the first for vacancy, and the others
fall terms. Two yeats of his last
term, up to 1915, had been passed
10 the Senate, when he was made Sec
rotary Of State by President POlk,
and gave place to Mr.. Webster, in
March, 1910. Mr. Baehanan's course
during his forty years Of i'acessant
public service has been so able and
honorable that the tongue Of eensare
has nothing to say Of has character as
man and Statesman. To show
how little in his public life there has
been to expose him to animadyersion,
we may instance that there is but one
squib which the malevolence of his
enemies brings against him, and is the
oft-repeated one-"If l had one drop

Diplomatic Relations with England.

The Message of the President an
nouncing to Congress that he has
ceased to hold diplomatic intercourse
with Mr.. Champion as the represen.
tative Of England, embracing Mr..
NIarcy's reply to Lord Clarendon's
late dispatch, will appear in our next
Onr present delicate relations with
Great Britain make this a highly in
teresting and valuable document,
and should be read by every one,
1t becomes now question Of Sc
rious import what action the English
government will take in the premi-
ses. Our government accepts the
disclaimers and apologies Of Lord
Clarendon as satisfactory; and the
dismissals ere put exclusively on
grounds personal to the parties dis.
missed. We cannot see, therefore,
so far as This matter is concerned,
any ground for rupture in our d.
plomatic intercourse. We conclude,
therefore, that the place Of Mr..
Champion will soon be filled with
some one not obnoxious to our gov.
eminent.
BY some q different result is con-
jectured. The Washington CORES
pendent Of the New York Tribune,
writing under date of May 30th,
says:
1t is we'll ascertained now that
Champion was instructed to close
the Legation in the event of dismiss
sal. Hence bis abrupt departure
yesterday morning. Mr.. Lumney,
his Secretary of Legation, applied
for passports for himself and attaches,
and only remains temporarily, as a
private individual, to close up the
personal matters Of the Embassy,
and the Minister, Mr.. Champion
notified his servants two weeks ago
that they should not be required af-
ter the LIST of June. The latest
private adyices from diplomatic and
monetary circles in England induce
the belief that Dallas will be dismiss
led. No reliable official information
has been received. The character Of
Marcy's dispatch and his response as
to the proposed arbitration, may
change the purpose of the British
Government. Mr. Champion formal
ly rendered his resignation several
months ago, as the means Of with
drawing an interrupting obstacle be-
tween the two countries, but was es-
pectally desired to continue. Hence,
probably the persistency Of Claren.
don in yinaicating his retention.
