THE DANUBLAN PRINCIPALITIES.

The letter of our regular Constantinople cores
pondent in yesterdays TRIRUSE foreshadowed the
final solution of the difficulty growing out of the late
political revolution in tho Danubian Principates
which telegrapbic dispatch, dated Constantinople,
Oct % and contained in our issue Of to-day, officially
announces Prince Charles Of Hohenzollern has
made his long projected visit to Constantinope where
the Sultan has given him q reception at his palace,
and formerly recognized him as the Hospodar of the
Principalties This recognition, our correspondent
states, involves the hereditary right of succession in
the Princes family. The Porte had long resisted
this important concession At one time it
seemed determined to risk war for the
purpose Of eIpeiling Prince Charles aud abol.
ishing the union of the two Principaites
(MOldayia and Wallachia). Not mastering, however,
sufficient courage for bold move, she then hoped
to escape an express recognition of the right of
cesson in the new Princes family. But Of late the
instruction in Gambia, the insurrectionary move
ments in Eprus and Thessaly, and its financial diff
cultes. have so alarmed the Government that it con-
cluded to accept any terms the new HoSpodar might
demand. The concession made to the Principates
ia very heavy sacrifices for the declaration OF their
entire independence OF Turkey will follow very soon,
even it, Us is becoming moro and more probable, the
Turkish rule should not be speedily overthrown in all
Europe.
As the dependence of the Danuban Principalities
will henccforth be only nominal, they may now DO
said TO have entered the list OF the European States
They at present both in point of area aud popula
tion equal 10 the State Of NewYork. But they start

THAT WAS PROVED BEFORE THE RECON
STRUCTION COMMITTEE

The 1,074 pages OF oral and documentary evidence
reported by the Congressional Committee on Recon
struction establish beyond doubt that the clamor
which johnson started and is engineering for the
| immediate admission Of the Rebels to representation.
has these objects:
l. To enable those who plunged the Southern
States into secession and brought the war to re-
sumo their former sway in the Government.
H. To obtain pay for tho slaves that were eman-
cipated.
Ill To mako the nation pay for the damages the
South sustained by the war.
". To compel the United States to assume the
Rebel debt.
V. To repudiate the Union debt il the Rebel debt
il not assumed
The evidence, moreover, shows that wien Lee and
Johnston surrendered the Rebels would have accepted
any terms Of pardon whatever; but that, under the
encouragement and patronage of President johnson,
their attitude Of suppsnts Tor mercy is changed and
they now stand confident, hostile, defiant, and dictate
demands.
II shows that lawlessness. violence, disloyalty and
sectional hate abound throughout the South in local.
ties where these passions did not exist until they were
stimulated aud emboldened by the course OK the
President
It shows that by pardons restoration Of confScated
esiates gifts Of the public property and favoritism Of
every kind Rebels have been lifted up and loyal men
put down in the South until treason there is more
fashionable aud Unionism is more odious than they
were during tho war. and a consequence loyal life
and property are the sport Of disloyal hate and bru-
tality.
II shows that secret organizations exist and arc
multiplying throughout the South whose object Is
hostility TO the Government OF the United States and
10 permanent union with the North.
Il shows that in case Of foreign war the Rebels
would rise anew and openly take sides against MS
That testimony prepared every member OF the able
committee before which il was taken for the murders
Of black and white Unionsts that have made the South
wet with blood-for the flight of Union families North
warl-or the burning of frecdmen's schoOl.bouscs
and the assassination Of Frcedmen's Bureau officers.
I, prepared them TO see that nowhere in the South
was tie Alb Of July celebrated except by negroes.
II prepared them to see black women and children
shot down for strcwing flowers upon the graves OF
Union soldiers.
Il prepared them 20 see the shameful and rayenou5
massacre at Memphis, and the subsequent horrible
sacrifice of the Unonists Of New Orleans. and the
drowning of the remaining loyalty Of Louisiana in
the blood OF the loyaliss-a gigantic crime encour-
aged By Andrew johnson and aiterward defended by
him on the stump.
Voters throughout the North and West, could any
thing be more insane than for Us introduce the ee
men,s of hate, disloyaty and violence which Andrew
johnson has knded throughout the South into our Gov
eminent without first securing safeguards We would
deserve 70 be destroyed If we did it, and. what is
more We would be DESTROYED.

MRHNU

Our cable dispatches contain this morning the in,-
portsnt announcement that the Emperor MaEimilian
will probably return to Europe in the Austrian frgae
which was recently dispatched from Trieste by the
EmDeror of Austria IL is further announced that
30 war steamers will leave France for Mexico in No
yember to bring homo the entire French force now in
that country. Whether these important statements
are entirely accurate or not, the speedy return OF
Macmillan to Europe as well "a the withdrawal Oh
the French army, are no longer liable TO the least
doubt. All the information that for months has
reached us, both from Mexico and from France, was
entirely concurrent with regard to this point. Such Is
the gnomnious end Of the grandest intervention Oh
European monarchism upon American soil; aud the
fact that this Intervention was undertaken against the
most disorganised and therefore, in many respects
one of the weakest American Republics, makes the
failure all the signal. In the reign oil the Ihrd
Napoleon the Mexican Expedition will not be, as the
Emperor predicted one Of the brightest pages but'
according to present appearances, the Emperor and
the whole NspoleOpc dynasty will be lucky II IL VIII
only be recorded as a great disaster.
simultaneously with this important announcement
from Europe we receive an order from Gen. Sheridan
taking more decided ground in favor OF the Govern
ment of President Juarez than any similar official
document had done before. The General command
ing the forces on the Rio Grande s instructed TO warn
the sdherentS Of any party pretended government
in Mexico or in the State of Tamaulipas, that they
will not be permitted to violate the neutrality laws
between the Liberal Government OF Mexico aud the
United States and to enforce these instructions against
the buccaneers representing the so-called Imperial
Government, as we'll as against the Ortega, Santa
Anna, and other factions.
1t must be expected that both the European news
and the order of the American General will greatly
strengthen the cause represented By President Juarez
who has now just reason for hoping to see his author
ity again recognized by the whole country.

All the needed advice TO guide them in the duty OF

the day appointed for revising the registry our friends

In alluson TO the Lost Cause" The Memphis But-
lin well says In truth there can be no cause lost
that was never won aud never defined. II we fought
to establish another Union, we fought without pur'
pose, since we already had Union; if to duplicate
Offices it was politicians war; if to secure freedom
Of States we should have fought under the old flag
and never gone beyond Provisional Government ~
Tie Bulletin, however omits the fact that the Rebel
lion had in Slavery and as that is lost forever
so are all the elements that nurtured it. 1t is the
will of the nation that the South shall guarantee that
in no form shall that cause ever be revived.

our well-nformed Berlin correspondent which will

There is no doubt that Gov Swami intends 60
remove the Police Commissioners before the election,
and will not wait should they be unable TO pro-
cure important evidence. Justice is in hurry, a.
the Governor understands H. and cannot proceed with
usual delberation. He has not only declared
his intention to finish the trial by Wednesday,
but the moment he is satisfied OF the
guilt Of the Commissioners, will remove them
in the midst of the proceedings, without even waiting
to hear the rest Of the evidence This indecent haste
is the strongest proof that the Governor regards the
trial FORM which, unfortunately he is obliged
TO observe and that the dignity Of the State is TO be
sacrificed TO the interests Of his party at the polls.
Ourspecal kilograms state that the Governor made this
singular announcement just after an interview with the
President and the public will not be at loss to trace
in the yrannica proceedings promised the spirit that
encouraged the Rebel Mayor Of New. Orleans. Gov.
Swami will commit gross wrong should he remove
the Commissioners without fully trying the and
hearing every syllable Of the evidence they have to
offer.

laid cannot be reoonoiled with greater power IN tho

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONTENTION.

As the present Constitution OF the State provide
for its own revision but once in twenty years. and
otherwise be amended only by cumbrous method, is
is important that the subject should be intelgently
voted upon in the coming election The various are
guments for and against having a Convention show
the general conviction Of the nadequacy Of Con.
stituton. The HOIid, which opposes the Convention
says: In its inception and design, the Constitution
Of 1876 as perfect instrument as ever formed the
fundamental law Of free democratic community. Its
leading idea was TO decentralze power and purify the
Legislature. 1t leaves hardly yestge Of appointing
power at Albany. The judges of the higher courts
and the heads Of departments are elected by the
people Of the State. All the local officers Of counties
cities Villages and towns, required to be chosen
by the people Of the counties, cities, villages and
towns where they serve. In this respect, nothing
could be more perfect in theory than the existing
State Constitution. But il has not answered the de-
sign of its framers" This conclusion contradcts the
argument, for il IL has not answered its design IL
should surely be amended The World accuses the
Legislature Of dishonesty evadng the Constitution
and defeating ito intentions, and upon its own show
ing, Constitution that can be evaded is certainly
imperfect in its letter. whatever it may be in It's spirit
But while The World complains that by evasions
the most important local officers Of the City of New
York arc not chosen by the city," The Ev,nimg Pos
