The Reaction In New England-The
Popular Revolution In tho North.
. The late elections in New England prove that
a reaction has begun in the popular mind there,
which is the forerunner of a great political and
moral revolution in this country.
AS long as things 60 well with him, there is
no man that pursues an abstraction with more
vigor, OF follows an impractcable idea farther,
than your true Yankee; but no sooner does its
fere with what he pithily calls "the main
chance" than his conservative feeling is at
once aroused, and he turns on his course with
all the agility of practised gymnast. This is
the result that is beginning to show itself in
New England. The people of that section of
the Union have followed the teachings of the
practical aboliHonists and fanatics until one
set of the rogues in politics, the remnants of
the old broken down wing party, have come to
believe that abolitionism was affixed and perma-
nent idea, which could be turned into q
hobby and ridden into powerful party organi-
zation and political rule. They mounted it
forthwith, and commenced to ride it with whip
and spur. But the Union that has been con-
summated between the abolition fanatics and
tin political rogues, and the manifest tendency
Of their aims to sap the guarantees of the con-
stitution and destroy the Confederacy, has
alarmed the South and begun to awaken the
conservative feeling everywhere. New Hamp-
shire is too remote from the great tides of COM
mercial and industrial interests to have expe-
rienced the effect Of the new dangers. But
Connecticut and Rhode Island are in close con-
tact with the commercial metropolis of the
Union. and in them the bonds of interest have
already begun to draw. Here are the re.

The THREE HUNGRY FRENCHMEN BEHIND
THE ScENEs.-Some time ago the three hungry
Frenchmen undertook to manage the Opera
and exploded, although the Opera went on.
Latterly, one or more of them has tried his
hand at the French theatre, and has succeeded
in closing the concern. Through this proceed
ing the artists Of the theatre have incontinently
come to grief, and the Franco American popu-
lation has been reduced to state of mind
bordering on distraction. The amount Of
talking, and writing, and card manufacturing,
and general suffering which has been done
by the parties concerned in the theatre is
something wonderful to think of. The Con-
necticut canvass or the debate on JEFF Davis
anti Douglas resolutions is nothing to it. And
it is still going on. And, worse than ALL no.
body knows when 1t will end. And, singularly
enough, nobody has the slightest idea as to
what it is all about. There's the fact that the
theatre has been closed, and that there has
been an irrepressible conflict between the late
Director Mannstein and one of the "three
hungry Frenchmen," who has been Pre-
sident of the Managing COMMITTEE of
the Subscribers. The majority of the
artists stick to Mannstein, many of the
dJo,mts are on his side, and the three thousand
individuals who make up French society in
New York. and consider themselves of as much
if not more consequence than the thirty mil
lions of Americans in the Union, are holding
meetings and generally make a tremendous
fuss about the matter.
The real cause of all the row is enveloped in
more than Eleusinian mystery. We have no
definite information on the subject, but it il
said that there is something awful at the bot
tom of it, and that the whole story would
~ake plots for as many as half dozen novels
h. three or four plays. We advise Bourci

LEGISLATIVE PROVISION AGAINST UNSAFE
BUnDNGs-The bill to provide against unsafe
buildings in the city of New York, we perceive,
was passed in the House yesterday by very
large vote, and without any amendments, aad
it will now 60 to the Senate for the action of
that body. The bill is voluminous one, COM
prising seventy.nine sections, and would ocou-
py about three columns of the HERALD. It
prescribes in detail the materials which shall
and shall not be used in the construction df
buildings; the dimensions of the walls, the
erection of iron and brick piers, arches and
columns; the capacity Of walls and foorings
to sustain certain weights; the construction Of
flues SO as to avoid communication by fire, and
almost all the minutie of house building,
which may be all excellent provisions if they
can only be carried out. The mode Of ap-
pointing the officials who are to carry out the
provisions of the act, however, we do not sp
prove of. For instance, the appointing power
associated with three members of the American
Institute of Architects Now, we hold that the
architects who are very often builders as well,
should have nothing to do with the appoint
ments, inasmuch as their own work may very
often require the supervision of the inspectors
created under the act, In which case absolute
impartiality can hardly be expected.
In obedience to q resolution of the Common
Council, Judge Bronson has framed q very
simple ordinance to provide against the cree
ton of unsafe buildings; but it appears that
the Legislature has forestalled 1t with the pre-
sent bill, which, in all probability, will pass
the Senate and become law. No doubt the
recent frightful catastrophe at the fire in Forty
fifth street stimulated the Assembly to the pas
sage of this bill, which is somewhat surprising.
ing to anything useful.

The PARTY POLITICIANS, NORTH AND SOUTH
We have long entertained the opinion that the
party politicians, North and South, are the
greatest set of scoundrels that the sun ever
beheld or that the moon was ever ashamed to
look down upon; and recent events confirm M
in that opinion. Look, for instance, at the L.
bors of the Investigating Committees. They
have utterly failed to bring home any corrup
ton to the President or his Cabihet-geutle
men and statesmen who are above anything
mean. or dishonerable. But these investga-
lions have brought out extraordinary deve-
Opponents touching Forney, Tom Ford and
others. 1t was on the corruption of the demo-
cratic politicians, as developed in Pennsylvania,
New York and Massachusetts,, that the republi
can party founded their hopes Of success In
Connecticut; and that the republicans were all
but defeated, that their former majority was
beaten down to 80 low figure, was not owing to
the democratic managers, but in spite of them.
1t is counter revolution of the people which
has commenced in Connecticut and triumphed
Albany Regency clique and the Tammasy
Hall clique did nothing to aid in this struggle,
but everything to defeat the good cause. They
would neither send stump orators nor money,
les. the election should be won, and Mayor
Wood should get the credit of it. They were
a drag chain upon the popular movement to
overthrow republicanism. But the people did
nobly-so well in Connecticut that that
State is sure to be carried for the Union
next fall. The people ought everywhere to
throw overheard the party politicians, and act
for themselves. 1t will be far better for them
in the end.

THE CASE OF SANBoRN AND MULTIPLICATION
OF FEDERAL AurHoRTY.-Iu the case Of San.
born, who was concerned in John Browns
business, and arrested on Wednesday at Con-
cord for contumacy, by order of the United
States Senate Committee, the Judges before
whom he was brought up by mob, decided that
he should be liberated, ON habeas corpus, on
the ground that the Sergeant alarms of the
Senate could not deputise his authority to
make the arrest, and must make it himself in
person. As to the other technical point
raised by Sanborn's counsel, that even the
Sergeant alarms has no power to make an ar
rest outside of the District of Columbia the
Court did not deem it necessary to render any
decision. But who cEi doubt If the Sergeant-at-
Arms, instead Of his deputy, arrested Sanborn,
that the result would have been the same, and
the authority of the supreme legislature of the
country be equally nullified by the action of
State court? If the Senate want to have that
tested, let them send the Sergeant.atArms to
bring Sanborn, and they will see what the peo-
pie of Concord, as we'll as the Judges, will do
Why cannot the Sergeant-at-Arms deputise his
authority as well as sheriff. To carry on the
legislation of Congress it is necessary to sum-
mon witnesses. The idea is absurd that the at
tendance of these witnesses cannot be COM
PEELED. If it be true that the deputies of the
Sergeant at Arms have no power to act,
and the Sergeant.atArms cannot act out
side of the District of Columbia, it is high time
that law should be enacted to remedy this
defect; and we trust that Congress will not per-
NIT its authority to be thus trifed with and rid
den over by mobs Of rescuers or Judges of State
courts, and that il necessary they will send
brigade of United States troops to bring, Mr..
Sanbon to Washington, and send him to the
same quarters with Hyatt, if he refuses to an
swer. By all means let him be made martyr.
Sanborn was the individual who furnished the
funds to John Brown, and was mixed up with
Hyatt and Forbes, with whom Greeley dined
in New York. giving Forbes $40 to help him to
Kansas, where he was to teach military tactics
to the disciples of John Brown. Let Greeley
be brought before the Committee. He knows
all about Sanborn and the plans of the leaders
in the conspiracy. Let the Sergeantat-Arms,
aided by Captain Rynders, take him along.
There will be no rescue in the city of New
York.
