A Freneh VleNr Of PrlvateerlnR.

An elaborate discussion recently took
place in the French Academy, on the sub
ject Of privateering. Among the speakers
was Cheyallier Walewski. late Foreiga
Minister Of Louis Napoleon, who said:
There is one point on which think nv.
self authorized TO insist. Priyateers are.
for the most part, manned from the lowest
dregs of the population. What are we 10
expect from such men cruising on the high
seas, without control? To what lengths
may they not gog What is to hinder them?
The sea is so handy. Is there any one on
board likely to prove troublesome on land.
ingy Poignard him aud overheard with
him-the sea tells no secrets How many
iufamies have thus been committed
The idea Of justifying privateering by the
pretext that II may furnish useful service
TO the State is dangerous mistake, and
defending il on the plea that good NAV
come out OF 1t, IL, in my view, a brave
moral error. What matters IL that priva.
teering has given rise TO few men of the
type OF John Bart or Duguay- -Trouin, il il
he in Itself radically repugna0t TO lnoralityY
PriVateersmen have been compared 10 gue-
rilla bands. The comparison seems to me
quite unjust-guerilla bands do not 70
abroad to attack private property or take
the enemy's goods. Besides, If there be
things TO admire in guerilla warfare, there
is also much to condemn. You have all
fresh in your recollection the account of
the battle of Medelin, by the historian of
the Consulate and the Empire. The French
army was exasperated, because on the day
before IL had found the corpees of 60 French
chasseurs horribly mutilated. The result
was that the Spanards were shown no
quarter on the day of battle. And besides.
1t was not the guerilla bands that saved
Spain-they do not deserve the credit

mony of earthly things. / will again in.
woke 1t TO cay that in virtue of this har-
mony, privateering has in our day become
impossible. Formerly these corsairs sailed
fast-saiing crafts, which de1ed pursuit by
war vessels aud even by frigales. They
had thus every chance TO escape the cruis-
ers sent Out TO take them. With steam
navigation this is no longer possible. A
privateer, In condition TO escape our new
cruisers, would certainly be rninous spec
ulation. This accursed trade is thus cut up
by the roots by the progress Of the indus
trial arts. To put an end to il completely
bot one thing is necessary-let the two or
three great powers declare that they are
resolved no longer to tolerate 1t, and that
they will treat as pirates all found practis-
ing II. When those who are minded to en-.
ter on this kind of business understand that
they run the risk of being hung. their en-.
thusiasm for this strange profession will no
doubt quickly cool. Let us hope, then. that
one of these days the institution Of priva.
teering will be looked upon as thing of
the past.

Go 1T. BosToNl-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hub Of the Universe" at the Music Hall of
that city. The Boston papers seem to be
hugely delighted with Mr.. Emerson's favor
able notice. The Atlas says:
The results Of bis reflections, observation
and judgement are summed mp in this:-
"Boston is appointed. 10 the destiny Of ma
tions. to lead the civilization Of North
America" To reach this conclusion be
went into.a long disqnisition which involved
metaphysics. history, climaIology. natural
philosophy, chemistry and geometry. He
quoted the ancients; he quoted the mod
erns; he quoted the Pilgrim Fathers and
their gloomy accounts Of their sutferings
by climate. by vegetation. by fishes, and by
insects. Some of these extracts we're quite
fanciful; but. lest any Of his audience
sbonld fear that the plagnes complained OF
might return again. he assured them that
nature. since then has never, nor never will
indulge in such exasperations. We sympa-
tbize with the Sage of Concord 10 his re-
gard for Boston and hold with him that cit
is an exceptional city," that It has a Ibis
tory both instructive and honorable, and
that sit has been from the first the seat Of

IFrom the Nationa lnlvliigeucerl
A Historical "Reminiscences.

Our readers are aware that it is postu-
late. or, if not pOstulatc. that il is cor
rOlary of the so called State rights the
Ory OF the Constitution, that the crime Of
"rebelliOn' against the Government of the
United States is not predicable of sovereign
States. The patrons Of this theory bold
that the several States, as contradistin.
guished from the people of the United States
are the creators Of the central "agency"
established under the name OF the Govern
ment of the Uoited States, and hsnce it
follows, according 10 their reasoning that
the authority of the States is so far para
mOunFIo the authority Of the said "agency"
that in case any one of the former chooses
to "resume" the powers delegated to the
latter, II has a right to do so without incur
ring the penalties because not committing
the crime of "rebelloR."
We have no disposition TO enter into any
nice Determinations on this point Of meta
physical politics, as the logical merits of the
question have been too repeatedly discussed
in our columns TO call for any further ex-
position at our hands. But, as serving TO
show how unhistorcal is the assumption on
which this whole theory proceeds, we pur-
pose to recall single fact 10 our constitu-
tional history.
IL is known to every reader that the
Convention which first assembled in the
State of North Carolina to deliberate on
the adoption Of the Constitution framed at
Philadelphia, in 1887, adjourned without
either ratifying or rejecting that instru-
ment. Instead Of coming to any decision
on this point, Its members, by vote OF 1874
In the affirmative to 81 in the negative, de-
lermined to recommend TO all the States the
adoption of a Declaration Of Rights and Of
twenty six amendments to be inserted In
the body Of the Constitution. Among the
latter was one which very Significantly i'm
plies belief on the part of the North Car
Olina Convention that States, as States,
could place themselves ia an attitude OF re.
bellion against the Federal authority: for
the twelfth amendment Ia the series was
conceived In the following terms:
Congress shall not declare any State to
be in rebellion without the consent of at
least twO-toirds Of all the members present
in both Houses"
Az the great distinction between the
Government established by the Articles Of
Confederation, and the present Constitution

that the former operated upon the States,
while the latter, within the sphere of its ju-
risdictiOn. acts directly upon the people, as
individuals, every reader will readily per.
ceive the chimerical danger against which
the anti Federalists of the North Carolina
Convention we're seeking to guard. But
we cited the language of their amendment
under this head, for the purpose of showing
how alien to the genius Of the Constitution
is that metaphysical logic which, OF late
years has given such an exaggerated de-
veopment to the doctrine Of State rights
