A special correspondent Of the Tribune

chose most familiar with the operations OF
the Bureau Bgree in affirming that il i
wholly inadequate 30 the duties expected OF
A." he suggests q plan for making the Blu
reau adequate 20 its duty, and then says:
Il is very doubtful whether it is worth
while 10 try to save the Bureau. It's con-
tinuance will postpone, 81 the best, an issue
which viii inevitably come, sooner or later,
when eli the Federal forces and officials
must be withdrawn, aud the two races must
make their own bargains, and fad out, by
experience, that The workers aud employers
are equally dependant on each other ii il
were insisted on that every State should
make ne distinction in its code Of laws on
account of color, aud the right Of negro suf-
frage were Recognized, (eyen if its applica-
ton were limited, as il ought TO be limited
for the good az 81 parties, 20 the colored peo-
pie who can read aud write,) there would
be No necessity whatever for The machinery
OF the Bureau. But, On tie other hand. If
civil power is 90 be fully restored, the mill
iaSy withdraw, and equality for al before
the laws il not insisted on, We will assured
ly, in Virginia and South Carolina, have A
war Of races OF a hegirA Of the negroes.
The lime must GENE when this attempted
suppression Of the blacks must cease, and
meantime il encourages sentiment hostile
10 the interests Of both races. For The
South may well say Il the Federal c ,vern-
ment msy establish rules and regulations
for the freedmen, why may not we have 3

no code founded on caste or color. Law

THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 80, 1885.



The Newark N. j. Advertiser says "the
Governor elect Of this stste, Marcus L. Ward,
has Just received from the Secretary Of State,
Hon. VIM. H. eevard, certified copy Of
the proposed amendment TO the Constitu-
ton. which was adopted by the last Coz
gress, for the abolition of slavery through
out The United ststes, and its territories
now existing or hereafter 10 be acquired.
A eopv of the same document was forwarded
70 Governor Parker just after its passage
BY Congress, but was rejected By the last
Legislature. The PnomPtness with which
Secretary Seward has reiterated the Official
notification Of the adoption Of the constitu-
tional amendment indicates the determine
ton or the Administration TO bring this
subject before the people Of New jersey and
their representatives in the Legislature, at
the earliest possible moment"
The amendment will no doubt be speedily
ratified on the meeting of the Legislature.
50 much for the Democratic defeat in New
Jsrseyi Another important result Of the
EA-ul NANANl. AAtlAn me GtANluIAAl repre-
sensation Of the State in the nEtional Con
gress. Mr.. Ten Eyek's term has expired,
aud last winter the eopperheads elected Jno.
p. Stockton 70 succeed him Bat the laws Of
New Jersey require that a majority Of Sll
the votes present are necessary 70 the cleo
ton Of senator. The total vote on joint
ballot was 81, snd a was required for ma
jOrity, while Stockton only received 40.
Being unable TO muster another vote, the
copPerhsads undertook to assume that 40
was enough, and accordingly Stockton has
the certificate, which he could not have got
but for the timidity Of the Republican
Speaker Of the House. As, however, the
national Senate is Overwhelmingly Republi-
can, the people Of New Jersey look to il to
protect their rights in this matter by refas-
ing 70 allow Stockton Q seat, in which case
the State Legislature will elect Republi-
can SenHtor.

81 British Friendship''---PaImerston
Wanted War.

In the November number of Blackwood's
Magazine-which has ever been an enemy
Of the cause Of the Unions published the
following relative 10 the late Lord Palmer
ston and America:
"The first Of these occasions was the
Trent affair, or which it is now no longer a
secret that Lord Palmerston made up his
mind to 90 10 war with the Federal States.
He had borne with impatiencesthe bullying
and insolence Of United America on many
occasions, and saw, with the clearness OF his
ca lier years, that the opportunity was at
length offered OF putting a stop 10 this bull
lying in time TO come. The Emperor Of the
French, equally long sighted, agreed with
Lord PHlmerstOn, and had there not been
with him In the Cabinet men TO whom
the thought Of war under any circum-
stances is dreadful, the message sent TO
Washington would have required a short
aud categorical answer, because a feet,
equipped FOR action, would have escorted il
to the mouth Of the Chesapeake. In the Cabi-
net, however, there sat at the time not only
Mr. Gladston, Mr.. Miner Gibson. and Mr..
Villers, but Sir George Cornewall Lewis, the
most subtle Of political reasoEers, the most
pacific Of Ministera-=one who could never
be brought 10 see that ia the lives of
nations, IS in those Of private per
sons, there are moments when, though
il can never be becoming 10 do wrong for It's
own sake, it is perfectly justihahle to antic-
ipa others, and 10 aver an injury medita-
ted against ourselves by inhictiBg it on
them. We had, when the outrage ON Trent
was committed, u lung list OF outragcs 20 be
accounted for. We mad been cheated-ior
there is no other word for tin the Ash
burton treaty. The States claimed as their
own territory what they had in their pos
session the elgsrest proof belonged 10 as;
and, as If 10 cap this outrage, the island Of
/ st. Juan, admitted 20 be ours up 90 the mo-
ment Of its occupation by an American
force, was invaded and kept military pos
session Of. These, with other lesser, but not,
therefore, uuimportant wrongs, ranked and
festered, and the Trent outrage presented
such an opportunity as could never be ex-
peoted 10 occur again for benefitting the
whole world. Had we struck then, g
Lord Palmsrston was anxious that we
should do, the Southern States world have
achieved their Independence, and kscome
10 u faithful allies, rs well as our very best
customers. But a section in the Cabinet
objected, Lord Palmerston gave way, aud
We are, with the Fedsrsls victorious, con-
/ Quoting through Lord Russell one Of the
most yexstious, and we fear most unsafe,
correpondences that ever the Minister OF
one power was called upon 70 conduct with
/ the Minister Of another.

We venture TO make an extract from a
private letter by an eminent publioist Of
our country, whose name Is an authority On
questions Of international Law:
'NEw YoRK, Nov. ed, 1865. at seems
clear that the British Government is bent
on not doing right By us. Leaving the sail
ing OF the Shenandoah from British port
wholly out Of consideration, the question Of
her continuing war against US, and the fair
knowledge she bad Of the extinction Of her
so-called government, was 4 serious ques-
ton and delicate one, which could only
be settled by corresponding inquiry,
probably BY trial. Why then this offensive,
unlawful, hot haste? A sheriff, who acts on
an apparently legal warrant, even he acts
az bis Own peril. Is there not at least some
slight similarity between Waddell and the
generals who commanded the fortsesses, be-
seiged by the PTussisns in 1916, after the
second downfall Of Napoleon. They were
info med that the government which placed
them IN command Of Phillipviile did no
longer exist, and had they declined to sur
render Il would have been at their great
peril. Many a fortress has been surren-
dered upon the information derived from
newspapers sent by the besieger to the be-
sieged. To be sure, in these cases, il was an
officer who sends the information, but this
is posa bic only on land. A vessel at
sea cannot be beseiged. Our friends seem
TO comfort themselves by the consideration
that the English store up a volume Of pre-
cedents TO be used some day against them.
Small comfort that for one who loves the
Law Of Nations and its progress, as the
great haDdmaid Of Civilization. Great
Britain acts as If she chung with a bitter
enthusiasm 10 a venomous and conscious
contempt Of the Yankee Il is no balm
10 me that one day or other she viii bitterly
rue it. Perhaps she will, but what is this
to Humanity"
