General Banks Upon the Paris Expo
altlOn.

We find tho late speech of Gen. BANKS,
upon tho representation of products of Amer
can industry in the foreign Exposition Of
1867, is receiving tho concentrations Of the
press almost universally. The correspondent
OF the Chicago Journal says OF 1t:
Mr.. Banks speech (Which I shall not at.
tempt to describe, as synopsis or extract
could not be made worthy Of the great effort, }
Is acknowledged by all as the finest prOduc-
ton that has been listened to in either House
of Congress for many years. Suffice 1t to say
that II was most noble tribute to the genius,
industry, energy, and progress of the Ameri'
can people.

Our Claims aga inst England-T he Time
for Prompt Demand for Indemnity
at Hand.
From the Herald
The steamer Oity of Boston brought special
despatch to the Herald, containing an important
extract from the London Times of October A, on
the subject of the Alabama claims. The action
of the Administration with regard to the Fenian
invasion of Canada, and the presence and de-
monstrations of our formidable iron-clads in
English waters, have had their effect, and the
Times article indicates q radical change in
public opinion on the subject of indemnity. 1t
is proposed that com mission shall be appointed,
embracing eminent jurists of all maritime ma.
tiOns, to deliberate on the duties as well as rights
of neutrals in time of war; and 1t adds that if
this commission shall convince the Englis b
Government that some indemnity is due the
United States for the grievous injury inflicted
on her commerce by the AG0dmd and Shendn
ionh. it will then not be to- late to make repara
tion, The Times says England should have M
false pride on the subject of submitting the
claims to q mixed commission, and hlnts ina
no country has more to lose by q lax lnterpreta
ton of the laws which she violated than ma
II is significant that at the moment England
is preparing to abandon her.position, the peopl
OF this country Are growing more determined
in their purpose of obtaining their just indem
nity, On Saturday last "a number of gentle
men representing claimants for indemnity from
England waited upon tne Presluent ana urRe(
upon him the necessity of immediate action.
It was suggested that q demand should be i'm
mediatelY made for indemnity within thirtl
daysu with the alternative of the seizure O
Canada, to be held as sort OF hostage for pay
ment of SAID claims. 1t appears that the Presi
dents political friends favor the movement oi

should follow, 1t would have good effect il

ARemarkabIe Conversion.

Ef0m We IftOuHe.
1t is little that the London Times can do in
the way OF moral influence, towards helping the
settlement of the questions by which this
country is at present agitated and divided. The
American people have learned to estimate the
utterances of that journal at their true value,
and the opinions of "The Thunderer" have but
small weight with us nowadays. Still 1t is in
tere5ting, and not altogether unedifying, to note
the changes through which the Times passes in
dealing with purely American questions. More:
these changes are always significant. II the
Times lis variable and uncertain, it certainly
does not lack shre wdness 1t likes to be on the
winning side, and 1t has a quick eye for the in
dicatlOns of approaching victory. During our
civil war it supported the Contederacy with all
its might, till it perceived that collapse was
inevitable, when ii coony abandoned Its friends.
SO it has stoutly defended President johnson
in his position OF antagonism TO Congress;
but now it suddenlv turns round and ad-
vses him TO make terms with the radicals,
and to urge upon the South the adoption OF the
Constitutional amendment But not content
with this, it has a good word to say tor the
cause of negro suffrage, admi, ting, by i'm olica-
tion, the right OF the Southern blacks to vote.
when the animositles OF the war have some
what passed await is thus it expresses itself
-"and the feelings with which the negroes are
regarded are somewhat sottened, the South
erners WILL it is TO be hoped, confer the fran
chise on black men, under proper regulations" )"
Very good this-tor the Times, over the spirit
of whose dream change is evidently passing
a change produced, we believe, by the noble
stand taken by the radical party of this country
in defense of the sacred PRINCIPLES under
lying the immortal Declaration of Inde-
pendence. 1t is thus that the right and the
truth ever compel homage, even from men
having little or no sincere sympathy
With them. We suppose the Times may hence
forth be reckoned among the friends of the negro,
and that 1t will cease TO sneer at those who ad-
vocate justice for him. But now that it has
given in its adhesion to impartial suffrage In the
United States, it is TO be hoped the day is not
distant when it will raise its voice on behalf of
the millions OF unenfranchsed Engllshmen, and
help them in their struggles with the oligarchy
of the old country. Tue people of America can
take care of the question of suffrage in this
country, and are quite equal to the task of set
ting it on basis of justice to all. Let the
Times look at home. There is great work o
be done there, and we shall rejoice to find it
lending its influence and EMPLOYING its unq ues-
TONED ability in helping to lberate the political
seris oil Great Britain.

constitutional Amendment sc Condition"
From the World
A bill accompanied the amendment, reported
on the Both Of April to provide for restoring the
Southern States. It had two sections; one, that
when they ratified the amendment they should
have representation; the other, that the direct
tax unpaid should be postponed ten years. This
bill, which seemed to look towards representa-
ton, was defeated.
The Thirty ninth Congress thus refused to
make the ratification of the amendment con-
dltlon OF representation. In the lace OF such o
fact, for Republicans TO talk of its being a con-
dition is bare-faced, brazen dishonesty. Condi-
tlon, indeed! They now deny the South all
representation.
