CCRr0us STATE or AFFAIRS on 0uR From
rIERs.-Tbe condition Of things on our North
ern and Southern frontiers AT the present
moment presents q very extraordinary appear
ancc, and not altogether explicable. When
the United States was q small Power OF about
three or four millions Of inhabitants, and great
only in its moral attitude, we had no trouble
with our neigbbors on either side OF the border.
Canada, indeed, was not only friendly, but
cvinced growing desire toward annexation,
and q friend. But now British guns are
pointed at an American city across the 81.
Lawrence. and on the Southern frontier the
bsyone,s of foreign army, whose uniforms
were never seen on this continent before ex-
cept as friends, can be seen glistening in the
sun on the other side Of the Rio Grande within
view Of our troops; the tattoo of their drums
can be heard In the streets Of our cities and
our vessels arc seized by The authorities of q
foreign prince.
From the foundation OF this government the
principle has been maintained that no Euro
pean Power should establish itself on this con-
tinent. We are the natural protectors Of the
small republics around Us. and the proper
arbiter, II any srbiter be required. This prin.
ciplc was respected while we were n very
small nation; yet, singular to say, now that we
have become the leading Power Of he world =

THE DISSENTING CABINET MEMBERS, HARLAN
AND SPEED.-It ia generally understood that
while all the other members of the Cabinet,
either actively or pass.vely, concur in the Pre-
sident's policy of Southern reconstruction and
restoration, the Secretary of the Interior, Mr..
Harlan, and the Attorney General, Mr.. Speed,
are unrescrved in their advocacy Of the policy
of Thaddeus Stevens and his Reconstruction
Committee. These two Cabinet members hold
that the lately rebellious States are wisely ex-
cluded from Congress, and ought to be ex-
cluded until they shall have given more ample
securities for the future than the guarantees Of
loyalty and good faith exacted by the Presi-
dent. Messrs. Harlan and Speed, therefore,
are not calculated TO promote the ends Of
unity and harmony in the councils Of the ad-
ministration; and it is maxim as old IS the
doctrines Of Christianity that "a house divided
against itself cannot stand"
The President is well known as a man dis
posed 10 exercise and allow liberal margin
in behalf of the freedom Of speech and indi-
vidual opinions. He is naturally disinclined
TO interfere with the exercise of this great
right in any way, unless where interference may
be urgently demanded, in view of his duties
to the country and the people at large. Hence
his indulgence 10 the members Of his Cabinet.
While they faithfully administer the bust
ness affairs OF their respective Offices he
recoils from the idea of their removal
upon differences Of opinion. But when their
discordant views are calculated to embarrass
his efforts to carry out the leading ideas and
measures Of his administration, surely IL his
dissenting subordinstes cannot be brought to
recognize the propriety Of their voluntary
retirement they ought to be removed. Mcssrs.
Harlan and Speed are in this category. They
are in false position, and their adverse opin-
ions are calculated to place the sdministra ton
in false position. Having taken their stand
against the Presidents policy every considera-
ton Of dignity and delicacy Ought to suggest TO
them the propriety Of retiring, or at least OF
giving their official chief the opportunity Of nc
ccpting or declining their designations.
II is not only the right but the duty
of the President to have a Cabinet that Is
unit in support Of the leading measures
of his administration. He must be the mas
ter Of his Cabinet, like Jackson, or he viii be-
come their servant, like poor Pierce and
Buchanan. Mr.. Johnson, for the present, may
be satisfied that he is strong enough to bear
the pressure Of two or three dissenting men,
bers; but the experiment must eventually
bring him to the alternative OF change. A
timely and graceful resignation of all the men,
beers Of the existing Cabinet would be good
movement on their part; but in reference to
Messrs. Harlan and Speed they certainly ought
to place themselves right before the country
either by proclaiming their cordial adhesion TO
the restoration measures and views Of the
President, or by retiring from the service Of an
administration which they cannot cordially
support

cial metropolis. II does not matter what il
may be callsd-a Board of Control of the Cur
rency, Commission, q Bureau or anything
else. We do not mean an establishment like
the old United States Bank nor the so-called
national banks-nothing that can be used as a
political machine or great private monopoly
but something over which the government will
have q control for the benefit of the public.
The government, and, therefore, the people,
should have the sole benefit of the circulating
medium; not private corporations as the
national banks now have. Greenbacks should
be the only currency, and this should be
regulated by board of control according to
exchanges and the necessities of the times.
The government, acting with this board, could
always keep a proper reserve of specie on
hand as well as currency to put down the
brakes or let them up, according to the neces-
sity Of the case. We cannot return TO the old
shnplaster system Of private banks; the revo-
luton in our circumstances forbids this, and we
suppose there are few who desire it. There is
no other safe and sound system than such as
we suggest. What is to hinder this country
becoming what England is in controlling the
finances and exchanges of the world! We have
greater wealth and infinitely greater resources.
We produce the greatest amount of precious
metals and cotton, which are the principal
regulators Of commerce and exchange. Why
should we permit others to use them for that
purpose! Why should we not use them so our
selves? No country is placed geographically
in such favorable position. We have Europe
on one hand and Asia on the other, and oil the
wealth and trade of the rest of the Americas at
our door. We have grown up to the point
when we can lay solidly the foundation
for such pre-eminence. We can avail ourselves
of the experience Of England and other ma
tons. All we need is sound legislation, net
to tamper with our healthy legal tender cur
rency, and a uniform and permanent system Of
management That viii bring specie pay
ments and make this country the financial CEN
tire Of the world.

TIE HERALD AND THE CANADIAN PREss.-The
papers of Canada are abusing the HERAIDfor
reporting the Fenian movement The English
language is ransacked and exhausted to find
epithets and adjcctives to fling at u.s. "vil-
lain,r scoundrel," blackguardismn and
such choice terms decorate the congenial
columns of these Canadian chaps. We advise
them to keep cool, take the matter more easily
and display less intemperance. II they differ
from the HERALD in opinion let them expre1
their views courteously, put their arguments
before us calmly and strongly, and use decent
and moderate language. At present they only
render themselves ridiculous They remind
us very forcibly Of what the press of this coun-
try was twenty or thirty years ago, before
the, HERALD had caused the great reform In
journalism. Then the papers were owned aud
conducted by politicians, whose only object
was to get Office, and who had no independence
of character, very little education and no. lite
rary ability. These editors abused each other
roundly upon every possible occasion, and To-
dulged In all sorts Of vituperation against any
body who was opposed to them in politics ar
upon . point Of principle. But day has fol-
lowed night, the world Of newspapers hes ksps
moving journalism has become q regular pro-
fession, and now, with very few exceptions,
the press Of the United States is reformed. IN
course of time-perhaps in u few years afser
Canada is annexed-the Canadian editors win
learn to write very differently and much more
like gentlemen, statesmen and scholars We
certainly indulge this hope, Notwithstanding tho
fact that the present performances Of these
chaps would lead any but the most sanguine or
philosophers to despair Of their improvement.

conclude that these papers are abstracted from
the bundles on board the steamers They are
allowed, no doubt, to lie very loosely about tho
vessels, and probably the passengers occasion
ally help themselves to little information on
the news of the day, and then consider that the
paper has done its duty, without any regard TO
the inconvenience which we or our correspond
ens and subscribers have 70 suffer- We
therefore hope that the officers of the steamers
will pay some attention to this matter, and
keep the newspaper bundles in secure place
------------
RAILROAD MoNoPoLIEs-FAsr AND Slow
TRAINs.-There is considerable noise made.
both at Albany and Washington, about railroad
legislation, but oil the efforts in that direction
do not appear to accomplish anything prac
teal. The greater proportion of this no doubt
grows out of the annoyance of the public at
the present regulations of the companies. We
would suggest that the railroad companies can
obviate all this difficulty by better arrange
msnt Of their trains, which will not only prove
advantageous to themselves but to the public
generally. That is by running certain trains
at On advanced speed and at an increased rate
Of fare. There is no reason wig train cannot
be run between New York and Washington In
seven hours. This, Of course, would be more
expensive than at the present rate Of speed;
but let them charge froEs one-quarter to enc
third more They will frd plenty Of men resiy
to patronise 1t at even tharrats offars: Timeis
valuable t0'our busi' men, and thsy win be
willing to pay more 10 be taken to Washington
in six or seven hours than they will in ten or
twelve, as now required. Ore train esch way
every day at this speed and price would greatly
relieve the other trains, and make the journey
more comfortable to those who, prefer to take
more time in the journey and pay less money.
The system is already in practice on many of
the roads which'have their express, way and
emgrsnt trains. All that is necessary is to ex-
tend this principle and add one more to the
class of trains. II will not be necessary
to change the character or speed Of tho
present trans-let them remain as they are
unless it is to take off one and substitute
another of increased speed in its place. It may
be said that the railroad companies will not do
this for the reason that it will not pay; but let
them try the experiment for month. We be-
lieve that ii will prove remunerative. The sys-
tenn has proved success in England, and there
is no reason why it should not here. AT all
events let the experiment be tried; that is tho
only way to test it.

The SPRING SEAsoS.-The sprinA' OF nature Il
just opening, and The spring Of faA 'hion made
its bow to the public of the metropolis
yesterday. See report in another column
Tie almanac is not always authority on = ne De-
ginning Of spring, neither is the weather; nu'
the modistes regulate the spring opening er
cathedra There is an old proverb that o.oe
swallow does not make a summer; but the
advertisements Of the milTiners and dress
makers always make a spring. Nature is ca
PRECIOUS, but the nsodistes are inAexible. This
class appear to have the seasons under their
control, and no one disputes thefr dicta.
This year they have happily bit upon the
right time, for the weather is most propitious.
We can see the hyacinths blooming, and almost
10 peep up from their late bed OF snow. The
flowers which owe their birth to art, and not
to nature, are now abundantly distributed
in the windows and showrooms of the millinery
establishments. Like the Secretrry of the
Treasury, bonnets are decidedly going on the
principle of contraction rather than expansion !;
but this does not affect floral ornamentation.
Everything rich, rare and beautiful recon-
mends itself to the taste of the ladies and the
pockets of the gentlemen.
To the latter tbere is something more refresh
ing in the antcipetions of what is to follow the
"opening day" ofspring. We will soon have
our Derby Day on the Paterson race course, and
fast horses, with shining coats, will soon be
trying to outdstance time on the popular trot-
ting grounds. The yachts will be unlocked
from their icy moorings and be afloat again,
with their white sails spread upon the blue
waters. The verdurc of our glorious Park
will begin modestly to peep out from the gray
and russell mantle that has so long enveloped it.
"The green" will soon assert its supremacy
there, no doubt to the immense delight of the
Fenians, as well rs to great many much more
sensible people. When folks get over their
perennial trouble with the landlords, and are
quietly settled down to the contemplation Of at
least one years peace, they can begin to look
forward to the pleasures Of the coming season
at the watering places or in the mountains
Released from the frozen bonds of long and
dreary winter, every one begins to look for
ward TO some enjoyment in the approaching
genial season to compensate for the almost
hermetical seclusion to which we have been
condemned for the past four months. ~
