Universal Suf frage.

Those who oppose universal suffrage and ia
vor certain tests of intelligence would do well
to remember that if the ballot is q shield of OPP
preston, the ignornnt man needs it more than
the wise one, for the latter is protected for his
intelligence, without the ballot If the ballot
causes officials, politicians and statesman to
consult the welfare of those who vote, then the
poor and ignorant should have the ballot, for
the reason that being unable to study their own
welfare it should be made the interest of polti-
cal classes to do so for them. If the ballot is
the highest prerogative of citizenship, then SO
much the less right to deny it to any citizen
Better deny him any other preogative of citizen
ship than the highest. If the ballot is designed
tc put good menin office, then give it to the
poor, the ignorant. and the oppressed, who
most need that good men should be in office
If the ballot is designed to prevent oppression,
give it to the oppressed 1t is not true that, to
exercise the ballot intelligently, mon need be
statesmen or sound judges Of measures of pub
lie policy. Very few voters are. But voters
do not vote for measures, but for parties. The
worst thing the most ignorant negro can do,
therefore. is to vote for the wrong one of the
two political parties, and how many white men
do that I?
SgOur relations with France are becoming
quite critical. The answer of the French EN-
peror to Mr. Stewards long dispatch of few
weeks ago is both pointed and pithy; eff the
United States insists in forcing matters in the
withdrawal of our troops from Mexico, France
can but consult her honor in this connection >
and the immediate increase of the French stand
ing army from 900. 600 to ,250,000, saucy and
significant.

The Cosr OF FoHE1GN MISSIONS may
be gathered from the last No. of the Mis-.
sionary Herald. 1t contains an interest
ing annual survey of the missions Of the
Board, and shows that during the past
year the whole number of laborers con.
nected with the missions was I,I3O
whole number of converts added during
the year was one to- each Missionary, be-
ing Lilo. The total expense for the
year is not given; but as the receipts
from September i, 1866, to November
so, 1886 1.-TWO months, tamoant to $780,
272,72, it may be inferred the average
receipts per month are s35, 900 or 100000
per year, or about $500 per convert. m
Perhaps this view may seem ininical
to the cause of missions, bnt if fair
one, should be understood by the Chris
tian world.

General Cox, who has had his term, must
retire with Dennison, Tod, and Brough /;
must be satisfied with one term,
which has become fixed doctrine with
the Republican party in Ohio, and will
not be abrogated in his case, as it would
be taken justly so-as a reflection on
the high character of his three immediate
predecessors, should he be chosen by the
party for reelection. AS a party We
have nothing to do in furthering any in
dividual interest, but we choose those
who are representatives of our cause, and
secure the best as near as our Judgment
dictates. with that view, Gen. Cox's
successor is therefore matter of import
ance to the great Union party in Ohio,
and the whole country, comming as the

great Presidential contest of 1864. We
want a true and tried man, one that will

pressed or implied will. In General Gran

ARRIVAL OF THE YACHTs.-The winner
of the s9o, 900 in geld, was the Henrietta
the property of James Gordon Bennett
Jr. making the trip-calculating ale differ
-ence IN hme-a minute or two short of
Ia days, arriving at the n Needles-west-
ernmost point of the Isle of Wicht-on
the afternoon of Christmas day, hours
and l5 minutes ahead of the Fleetwing,
and hours and - minutes in advance of
the Festa. The trip was made, it is assert
ed, without a single tack, though she had
to saay to- several hours. The best davis
run was 2so miles, & the poorest ll3. The
Fleetwing had a rough time of if, having
lost SIX men, washed from her bowsprit
while furling the glib. The Henrietta is
regarded as one of the fieetest yachts that
ever sailed the ocean, and is greatly ad-
mired. Great interest has been felt by
all classes on the other, as well as on this
side the water, in the race, and its merits
generally discussed, and no little wonder
expressed at the quickness of the passage
under the circumstances of weather. Nu-
merous offers of hospitality are received
from various parties, and besides din
ner given by the royal yacht club, a sa-
lutte of II guns was fred in honor of the
.voyagers and their gallant little crafts.
A cable dispatch from London announces
that BENEFITS challenge to sail with any
yaehtin England, has been accepted by the
Duke of Marlborough with the Royal
Yacht Viking. The time set is the first
week in August 1867.

Under an Eclipse.

tion in Europe was that of n APoLEoN III.
1t unmeasurely overtopped all Others
He was held to be endowed with sagac-
ity something more than human. What
ever he did seemed to be done with an in
comparable mastery over men and events.
No failures cast their shadows upon his
progress. That great reputation attained
by many years OF unbroken and magnli-
cant success, has passed under eclipse.
1t is no longer what it was. A series
of disastrous enterprises, the develope-
ment of other individuals into equal or
even greater conspiculty, the success of
rivals involving his humiliation, have all
-conspired to reduce his fame from what
1t was.
The Mexican expedition, never popu-
lar, and demanding large sacrifices of
money and life, is drawing to an ignomin-
ious conclusion Undertaken upon false
premises, prosecuted without brilliancy,
and ending in shameful retreat, it has
detracted largely from the general judg-
ment of the Emperor's penetration and
fertility of resources, and soured the mass
of his subjects Hor was this relieved
w the subordinate and sinister part he
playedin the late Germanic War.
Clearly oyerreached and thrown off his
guard in the Prussian negotiations which
. preceded it, he was amazed and con-
founded by the extent and rapidity Of
the military movementswhich made 1t IL
lustrious. In his bewilderment he show
cd an eagerness to participate in the fray
but this was attended by fatal irresolu-
tion, as to which side to espouse and
what pertexts to ayow. In this mood
he let the opportunity of interference
slip, and ended in making demands for
territorial compensations, which rested
on pure assumptions, and in being re-
fused in a manner which gave the civil
lied world to understand he was no lon
ger regarded as the arbiter of destiny
: among the nations. Then he was con-
strained to Withdraw his troops from
Rome. The intense longing for national
unity among the Italians, and the coali-
ton between Prussia and Italy, gave to-
ken of eventualities for which he was
not prepared, and from which he con-
ceived it prudent to make his escape
With his retirement, so far as human dis
cernment can penetrate, cause for
which he periled much, and by which he
profted, is irreeoyerably lost. These
events, distastefll TO the pride of the
French people, have seriously shaken
It's hold upon popular confidence. This
is plainly manifested in the sullenness
with which the project to reorganize the
army has been received But six years
ago not a murmer of discomfort would
have followed the PRONUNCIATION of. the
scheme. When the masses are ia hu-
NOR to find fault, nothing suits them hetf
ter than en- opportunity. NAPOLEON
