Political Reform in Engiand-Mr. Glad

England is now discussing the grand lues-
ton whethor or no the people shall be admit
ted to larger enjoyment of political power
whether they shall have fuller voice ia tue
national councils and be recognized as one of
the elements Of the national life IN any other
way than as the patient drudges-the hewers
of wood and drawers of water for the privi-
legged class. II is discussion as to the safety
of continuing the present system. As now
constituted, England Is so purely aristocratic
that the very existence Of millions of her peo-
pie is ignored whenever new Parliament Is
chosen, those millions of white English be.
ing of less political consequence in the coun-
try than the negro slaves were in our Southern
States How much longer can this be tolerated
in an intelligent age That is the question.
The government being national and not too
blind to profit by the histories Of other govern
ments in the same position, Is disposed to con-
cede gracefully now what otherwise will be
forced by and by, and therefore offers plan
for the extension OF the suffrage.
In sustaining this government proposal to
bring England nearer to the level Of popular
government, to modify the arisocracy, Mr.. Glad
stone said: ave have arrived at critical point
in the history Of the nation This Is true;
England has reached that point In her history
where there must be change in the character
of her governme MP srliamentary and peace

l6ss and the funding system have had the
same effects as the feudal system, and have
finally put England exactly in the situation
that France was in just before the
revolution. All the real property Of
the nation is concentrated In few
hands, and the people exist practically
as the slaves Of the few. All other distinc.

PERSONALITIES IN CoSGREss.-Wc are sorry to
see representatives from New York engaging
in the disgracelul business OF personalities in
Congress. This kind Of braggadocio ought TO
be banished from The Capitol or left to the
iire-eaters and the border ruflians. When Con-
gressmen declare that they are entirely
responsible, not only here, but elsewhere for
what they say and that they are responsible
everywhere" and that they will "answcr not
only here, but elsewhere, anywhere that il may
be agreeable to have the answer" and that
"the question of veracity could be settled
somewhere else" and that their 'veracity is
not 10 be called in question with impunity,"
they simply render themselves ridiculous.
The constitution expressly provides that "for
any speech or debate in either house" the
Congressman .'shall not he questioned in any
other place" and consequently the members
are perfectly aware that they can boast ond
swagger with entire safety. This verbal
courage Is excessively cheap and has often
made our Congress laughing stock. The
Congressman are not responsible to each
other, but they are responsible to their con-
stituents, and we hope that those who bluster
and threaten In this manner, instead OF attend
ing to their legitimate duties, may be held to
rigid accountability by the people whom they
msrepresent. II q couple Of these Congress
sionsl bullies would only muster up courage
enough to exchange challenges and annihilate
each other like the Kilkenny cats, il would be
better for Congress and for the country.

whether it be mammoth express company or
a mammoth newspaper company, the public at
large are not likely to lose anything by their
going into operation. Capitalists think that
because the Adams Express Company is max
ing an enormous amount of money and that
newspaper publishing is profitable, because
they see the success Of a paper like the
HERALD they are desirable sources of invest
ment. Let them try it, So far as newspapers
are concerned, all we have to say is that we
are ready. But we predict that If any more
dailies are established in this city some of
them will be killed off, and we shall take care
it will not be the HERALD.

CRUELTY TO ANIMIs.-The Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, formed I'M
der an act OF the Legislature, held its first regu-
lar meeting on Tuesday, which was attended
by some of the leading merchants of the city.
These gentlemen arc invested with powers
almost as unlimited as the Board of Health
and their duties lie a good deal in the same
direction. II is not alone the 'poor dumb
mouths" of the animal creation which are en-
trusted to their care. II is within their pro-
vince also to protect the public from many
abuses; for instance, they can prevent over
crowding of cars and omnibuses, which is the
greatest cruelty that can be perpetrated upon
the unfortunate horses; species of cruelty in
which human animals share. They can remove
the abominable pavement which has been q
disgrace to the city for the last ten years and
has been the cause Of more torture to these
wretched animals than anything else. They
can regulate the hack system upon the same
grounds, the horses being wholly inadequate to
the labor imposed upon them by their avari-
cious masters.
They can umeliorate many evils by causing
the slaughter houses to be removed from the
city. Let these hotbeds OF ulscas-, vAau,-
pie, be transplanted to the Jersey fats, which
are of no use for any other purpose. Then
the dangerous nuisance Of driving herds of
cattle through the principal thoroughtares, TO
the impediment Of travel and the terror of wo
men and children, should be done away with
The shocking and painful exhibition of car
loads Of calves and sheep in all stages OF
agony and strangulation SO common in the
streets, should be stopped, and the sale of meat
unfit for human food should be prevented.
In these end many other ways the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty TO Animals can do
infinite service to the public as well as to the
poor beasts whose especial guardians and pro
tcctors they have been created by law; and we
hope they will comprehend the full measure OF
their duties in this respect.

evils TO prevent trouble. Such proposed mod
LEGATIONS have become chronic Frequently
made, they have been rejected for various
reasons; but now the government goes further
than ever before, and in this we see the result
of the great trial of popular institutions on
this side of the Atlantic. Such is the ferment
in the English mind on this subject, such is the
demand that the people shall be admitted to
direct influence on the government, that it
would be deemed utterly puerile to offer to the
country now measures that in former years
were deemed very satisfactory staple for bills
of electoral reform; and 80 evident is the infu-
ence Of our struggle that the Chancellor of the
Exchequer holds up our war as the grandest
example Of history that the institutions Of
country may safely be trusted to the wisdom,
energy and patriotism of its people. Against
the upholders of the old system and opponents
Of the new he quotes their own declarations
Of dozen years ago that popular institutions
were failure in the United States, and then
asks them If our conduct of the greatest
war Of modern times has proved that
failure. Thus the people of England,
assisted by the comparison of Mr.. Gladstone,
will see that we have been fighting their battle,
and the struggle on our side against the same
elements that they have to contend with; and
the more they see and feel that our battle was
their battle, the more they will draw encour-
agement from our triumph, and the further they
will carry their requirements, until the change
of system shall be absolute, radical complete.
But it is far cry TO Lochiel, and il is doubt
full if the present bill will even commence the
change. This bill, in all PROBABILITY, will not
pass the House of Lords, and that will mark
distinctly the issue between the people on one
hand and the arisiOcracy on the other. That
will make the struggle on this question more
positive, and will fix it as The topic that is to
divide Englan for many years, with all privi-
lege, wealth, eXclusiveness and bigotry on one
side, and all liberality, progress, intelligence
and the spirit of the age on the other. The
world cannot go backwards, and the victory
cannot be with the system of the past, the sys-
TEN that every day becomes more impossible
in the present. But the strength Of that system
in England may defer the victory for many
day. So much the worse for England, for the
longer the remedy is deferred the more .espe-
rate il must be when it comes
