their votes against the Republicans as to ad-
vance the cause of Equal Rights for All, it is
their duty SO to cast them, and we hope they
will do it. But the pretext for so doing alleged
in the above extract is so paltry that we
are sure they never devised and will not act
upon it.
". If Mr. Wendell Phillips would get him
self nominated and run for President in 1868,
instead of barking at the heels of the Repub-
lican candidates, we should greatly rejoice.
But that 65O,00O negroes-Or even $4,000 would
support him in a movement plainly designed
to throw the Union into Democratic hands, we
shall not easily be made to believe.
V. We judge that the time has not yet
arrived for President-making. Sufficient unto
"the day [arel the [dutiesl thereof" But,
when that time shall have come, able and
worthy men will be nominated not because of
their color, nor to appease any factious clique,
but because they are beloved and honored by
the great mass of the party; and, being thus
presented, they will be chosen.

1t is a hopeful sign that even the House of
Lords is gradually getting ashamed of some
of the glarng abuses still existing in English
legislation. One of these abuses, which seems
to be doomed to a speedy death, is the Excess
siye wealth of the Irish Church. The attacks
against it no longer proceed exclusively from
the Roman Catholics and the Radicals, but the
Liberal party in Parliament is almost a unit in
demanding a thorough investigation of the
grievance, with a view to reform. On the oath of
June the House of Lords agreed to motion by
Earl Russell that an address be presented
to the Queen, praying for the appointment
of Royal Commission which is to pro-
cure full and accurate information as to the
nature and amount of the property and the
revenues of the Established Church in Ireland.
One of the most interesting speeches made on
the occasion was that by the Irish Bishop OF
Down. who proposed considerable reduction
in the number of archbishOps, bishops, and
clergy of the Established Church of Ireland
and the consolidation of all the revenues OF
the Church into one common fund. This is an
important indication that even the Irish bishops
deem it necessary to make concessions to the
demands of public opinion.

INTELLECT AS A COMMODITY.

aHow did Ralph Waldo Emerson please your
"peopIeq ~ asked lecturer last Winter Oh the
President of q Young Mems Association IN a
village not far west of the Mississippi Mod
eratelv. fairly. Sir,n responded the functionary
"he did not draw so good a mouse as some
"other lecturers, and we dld MT expect he
"would but aue think that sort Of people ought
"to be eneouraged.n And SO they should be-
and are.
Nearly year ago, Henry Ward Beecher put
forth certain views that alienated some who had
been his warmest friends and grieved many
more. In o few weeks thereafter, the lecture
, associations issued their respective programmes
for the approaching season, when Mr. Beechers
name appeared on but two or three OF them,
and was soon withdrawn even from these.
"Therel you see Beecher has killed himself {:
90 he is MT invited to lecture any more" was the
sage comment of hundreds. Yet never were
men more mistaken. The Doctor mad more
invitations to lecture at high prices than ne
could find time even to decline, and was
threatened with an action for damages by at
least one association which claimed to have
some sort of engagement with him. Still, he
did not and would not lecture, simply because
Mr.. Robert Bonner had said to HIM, Name
" the sum that you can make this Winter by
"rdng night and day, through alternate snow
drifts and mud to fulfill lecture engage
" ments, and will double it if you will stay IL
your own comfortable study and devote
"your spare hours to writing me story
for The Ne,o- York Ledger" The bargain
was struck the story written and paid for
and that is the sole and quite sufficient ex
PLANTATION of Mr.. Beecher's failure to address
! fifty to a hundred associations last Winter. do
chose to instruct several hundred thousand PEG
ple at once, thus to earn more money with les
fatigue and exposure. And, while we mos
earnestly dissented from some OF the views
expressed by him last Summer, we re-
ioice in the fact that the public does not lose
the benefit of his ability and worth because OF
an error of judgment on his Tor on its) part
Our people are sad-perhaps justly-to b'
peculiarly intolerant of obnoxious opinions
Perhaps the fault inheres at least equally IL
the timidity of those who should be leaders OF
opinion. Only let an independent thinker
demonstrate fearless fidelity to his convic
tions, and the shafts of bigOtry and envy fal
harmless at his feet.

The argument that the Rebel States no
longer need military government has had many
refutations, to which are added the murderous
attack upon a peaceable procession of colored
men at Franklin, Tennessee, and the disclosure
of the condition of Texas, in the Republican
Convention of that State. The delegates from
many counties report that justice is farce,
and that the lives of Union men are III per-
petual danger. The son of Mr.. Richie, one OF
the delegates, was recently murdered for no
other reason than that he had served i'll the
Union Army, and his murderer lives in safety.
That Governor ThrOckmOrton refused to inter
fere in this case confirms the necessity of the
policy Gen. SheridanY adopted in Texas.

The Navy Department in Washington has
received a letter from Commander f. A. Roe
of the U. S. steamship TacOny, informing the
Department that, in compliance with request
from the commander of the Austrian man-of-
war Elizabeth, he addressed letter to President
Juarez, asking him to give up the
body of Macmillan. 1t appears that the
Mexican Government has refused the request,
and we now learn by Cable that the Austrian
Government will Immediately dispatch fleet to
demand the body. All the European Govern
ments show the most intense excitement and 1t
can hardly be doubted that but for the United
States a new and formidable combination OF
European Powers against the Republican Gov
eminent of Mexico would be formed

The King of Bavaria has signed the new
Zollverein Convention, which places the SUI
preme management of the commercial affairs
of the South German States as fully in the
hands of Prussia as this power has already
control of their military forces All the South
German States are said to be wholly agreed
on the subject. Some of the Paris papers vio-
lently deny the right of the South German
Governments to conclude such alliances. But
the French Government appears not to move
at all in the matter.

Whatever may be the differences of opinion
in regard to long session of Congress, OF the
subjects which it should consider, the
first work it is expected to do is
the settlement of the reconstruction
question. The House Committee has decided
upon a supplementary act, printed elsewhere,
which Mr.. Stevens will introduce to-day. It
declares that the original acts intended
that the Rebel State Governments were
Illegal, and that they were to be subject
to the military commanders and the authority
of Congress only; that they authorized
the removal of State officers and the
appointment of Others at the discretion of the
Commanders, to whom power was also given
TO set aside any acts of State or Municipal
Governments within these districts. This con-
structiOn of the previous acts is reGnaeted,
and all acts done in accordance with
it are declared valid. 1t is further pro-
vided that the Boards of Registration shall
have power to determine the qualifications of
applicants for registration, and that the taking
of the prescribed oath is not to be considered
conclusive proof of fitness to vote. Civil courts
are declared to have no power to interfere with
the orders of the District Commanders, and the
Last section Of the act prohibits their removal,

The English Government, tired of their pro-
tracted and useless negotiations with King Theo-
dorus of Abyssinia, have at length resolved to
compel, by force of arms, the King to release
the English captives. Arrangements to that
effect have probably been made with the King
of Egypt, who is At present in England. When
the first news of this warlike measure reaches
Abyssinia, the lives of the captives will be Ill
GREAT danger from the wrath of the King. -
