Judge spaIdius's bankrupt Law.

Our representative hss signsliEed his
advent into Congress by having commit
tee Of nine appointed to report upon the
propriety and necessity of Bankrupt
Law. By virtue of Parliamentary usage
he Is chairman Of that committee.
We have already had two bankrupt
laws, one enacted in 1900; the ether, in
ls4I.
Both were repealed within three years
Of their enactment, SO that We have had
but six years Of bankrupt law in seventy
Eve.
It is general impression that these
laws are for the benefit of the debtor
rather than for creditors. II law is en-
asted which shall provide for the equal
distribution Of the debtors assets among
all the creditors, it will not only release
thousands Of men from the cruel bondage
Of debt but also without damsge to credi-
tors and with great benefit to the whole
community. We trnst that in framing
this bill Judge spalding will throw around
il suitable guards to protect the rights Of
creditors as well as the interests of debt
ors.
A saluisrJ retrenchment Of credit in the
failure will be the effect of well guarded
bill. Men will not so extraVagsntly
plunge into sea Of debt. Sellers will be
more cautious in disposing Of their
goods.
tits q question among writers on bank
Fupt laws whether the next law should be
wholly prO,ps.tips in its character or
whether it ought not also to be retroactive.
We do not see how a retroactive force
would make it any the less permanent
In brief period this will cease and then
the law will become regulstivs in busi-
ness. Let US have both the compulsory
and voluntary features in the new bill and
the Judge will do great work for th'
country.

General Grant according to Mr.. Wilson,
has written that there can be no peace
between the North and South so long as
slavery exists. Why not, pray They
managed to get along very comfortably
for great many years. whence this new
HehtF Has the South taken new ground,
OF the North p World.
The Ignorance, not only Of American
history, but Of the facts of the last three
years, which this paragraph displays is re
markable. The North and the South did
not get along comfortably for great many
years, though the best management in the
country was exhausted 10 procure comfort
Webster, Clay, Crittenden, did their best
% reconcile the irreconcilable Slavery
was the sole element Of discord, and out Of
It sprang wrsngling that ended in eomPro-
misss, compromises that resulted in wider
breaches and a perpetual Jealousy and
keart-burnipg that the common patriotism
of all sections could not extinguish. The
strife went out of Congress into the terri
tories. made Missouri miserable and desc
lated Kansas. It came into northern cities
IN the shape Of mobs, and in the South in
the lynching Of AbolitiOnists, and the Sc
cret plOttings of CalhOunism. Finally,
slavery resulted in rebellion and bloody
war. Is this the very comfortable way Of
getting along, of which the World is elO-
ouent? But we're all its eloquence ex-
pended on fact instead Of chimers, the
truth remains that the South has taken
new ground, in attempting the dissolution
Of The Union for the sake of slavery. We
may forget the past, but we cannot be
blind to the present General Grant war
altogether in the right, and every mind
not hOpslessIy prejudieed must admit thai
had it not been for slavery, we should
never have had war, and that were i
not for slavery we might have peace to
orroW.

An EdItor,sip AcnuowIedsed.

Mr.. Golden having published in the
Rochdale Observer the communication in
defence Of himself and Mr.. Bright which
was rejected by the editor of the London
Times, the controversy has become person.
al. Mr.. Cobden's sharp criticisms have
compelled Mr.. Delsne, the editor Of the
Times, to appear in print with a statement
under his own signature-thus destroyin ing
the impersonality Of that truculent sheet.
Mr.. Delane encloses his letter to the Daily
News, requesting the favor Of an insertion
in its columns. He denies any intention
to misrepresent the meaning Of Mr.. Cob
denis or Mr.. Brighfs speeches, and con-
clndes as follows:
The possession, the transfer and the
tenure Of land are, however, public oues-
tions, which ara best discussed, not between
Mr.. Golden and Mr.. Delane, but ss it has
always been the practice Of the English
press to disouss sthem-snonymously That
practice Was not invented by me; it will
not be destroyed by yourself. 1t has sp-
proved itself to the Judgment Of all, Wheth-
er statesmen or publicists, who have ap-
preoiated the freedom and independence
Of the press, and believe it to be essential
to the interests not only of the press but Of
the public.
Although, therefore, have not accepted
your challenge in this instance, 1 shall de-
cline to make any further contributions to

Wendell Phillips objected, in his New
York speech, to the Amnesty Procisma-
tion for the reason that it was to be sub
nitted to the judgment of the Supreme
Court. The Amnesty does not necessarily
bring the question before the Court 1t is
not in Mr.. Lincoln's power to prevent 1t
The Proclamation of January lst, 1868,
must be subjected te the same test and re-
main open for adjudication. But there is
no probability that the Supreme Court
will decide against the constitutionaiiFy Of
this Amnesty. The Court is very differ
emily made up low from what it was when
the Dred Scott case was acted upon. Then
slaveholders domineered over the country.
Five Of the nine Judges were shareholders.
The North was then, for the sake of peace,
ready to crook the pregnant knee Of sbase-
msnt. They wished to cOnciliate the oil
earohs. The Court now is materially
changed. This is its composition:
TAErY, Maryland, Copperheadi
NELSON, New York, Copperhead;
GR1EE, Pennsylvania, War Democrat
WAYNE, Georgia, Conservative
CATRoE, Tennessee, Copperheadi

the blacks as soldiers. Last Fall, on being
offered Copperhsad ticket, he replied,
"No, cir, I vote for my country this year"
SRayne, Field, Miller, Davis and Grier
eonstituts half the Court and no adverse
decision could be mode over their heada.
Nor would Judge Wayne side with the Cop
perheads. Last spring both Wayne and
Grier sided with the Republican Judges in
arecognizing she beIligerent rights Of the
Government under the PresidenFs procls-
nations Of April, 1861, and condemniDg

tionality Of the proclamation He is

Missouri Election.

The ST. Louis Democrat of yesterday
says it is prepared unhesitatingly to
claim the election of Messrs. Glover,
Krekel and Wayne, Radical candidates
for the Supreme Bench of Missouri. The
result in so odd counties have been re-
ceived. These counties. with one or two
strongholds, and yet t6eir ticket IS ahead
only four or FIVE thousand. The Demo
crGt says further:
This number will be greatly reduced,
if not wholly Wiped out, in these coun-
ties by the soldier vote, while some of
the most radical portions of the State
are yet to be heard from. On this show
ing it is apparent the home vote will not
be far from even, while the soldier vote
cannot well give a Radical majority of
less than from seven to ten thousand.
1t will be seen that the counties on the
northern border of the State 90 over
whelmiDgly Radical, greatly increasing
their u4ajorities over those of last fall.
We hear of large Radical maiorities in
several of these counties, not in our list.
as We have not received the figures. We
also learn from reliable parties, who
were in the Southwest during the cleo
ton, that the Radicals have carried
everything there We do not see how
the Radical majority on the whole vote
can possibly be less than Eve thousand
1t Is likely TO exceed that.
Thus is Missour. redeemed at last.
She takes her stand with Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania, New York, Iowa, and the other
freedom-loving States Of the Union Let
