We print this morning the opinions OF the
Supreme Court of the United States in the
Milligan case. An abstract heretofore published
informed us that the Court had decided that
in this case writ of habeas corpus was right
fully issued, that Milligan ought to have been
discharged from custody,' and that the Military
Commission assembled for the purpose had no
legal jurisdiction to try and sentence the ac-
cused. This, however is merely technical
statement of the points decided. In the deter
mination of them all the Court concur, but
they differ in some important particulars re-
specting the validity of Military Commissions
in general These differences and the scope oil
the decision we shall consider hereafter.

ETROPE IN 1867.

In the annals of the Old World the year
which closed Yesterday will in many respects
connt rs the most memorable since 1915. The
crisis W, ich for so many years had been draw
ling ne r arrived. The social fabric when the
MacM ,ellian stat ;men Of 1915 so laboH0uSly
rcarc, no longer Il reatens ruin, but has falriy
begun TO collapse, and the study OF the Euro
pean sta .esman is not now how to prevent re-
construction but how to secure controlling IN
nuence over it. Some years ago 1t might DE
considered doubtful whether llrope was actu-
ally in process of transformation; now every
one is inouiring what the issue OF tins grahd
process will be.
Whatever people may think of the justice oil
the nationality principle which would recon-
stluct Europe on the basis of the political sep
aration and independence of every nationailty,n IL
will be admitted by all that the principle actually
is the great motive power which sets the Wnoio
of the European world in commotion. Ihe
disturbed condition of Europe in 1866 chiefly
arose from the efforts made for eiiectlng Ma
tional reorganization, as III Germany, Italy,
Austria. or for achieving national independ-
cnce. as i'm Ireland and Turkey. The ceSslon
Of Venetia has removed one of the most dan
eerous causes of national discomfort, Dut
the realization of italian aspirations has
at the same time given powerful impulse 10
other nations During the last days OF the year
the political horizon again became clouded, fore
bodjpg n future tempest. The election OF the
first North German Parliament by direct and uni
versal suffrage can have no other meaning than
the readiness of the Prussian Government to con-
tinue the alliance which it has tacltly concluded
with the Liberal party OF Germany for carrying
through the National Union movement, despite
all opposing influences. The Sclati of Croatia
and the ncighboring provinces OF Austria ana
Turkey have recently assumed an attitude
which indicates the imminence of conflict.
All Turkey is pervaded by an excitement which
cannot last much longer without bringing on
explosion. The Fenians and the Poles carry
their national hatred over into the new year,
and the reported reconciliation of the Hun
garians with the Austrans rests on the fran
basis of Austrian promises. Thus we meet, in
all quarters of the Old World, with the pros
pect of new and great conflicts.
Europe has many statesmen, who, from diff
ferent motives have come to look upon the
success of the nationality principle as newt
able; but no one has as yet found the key for
a peaceable settlement of the intricate question,
and Europe enters the new year with millions
of people eager to seize the first opportunity
for breaking the yoke which binds them to
foreign prince. A peaceable solution not being
probable, the success of the PIussian army has
caused France, England, Austria, and many
other powers, to increase their armies and their
taxes.

"Duties upon imports are not only necessary
for revenue, but also for the protection OF
those home interests upon which heavy inter
"nal taxes are to be assessed" So says Secre-
tary MeCulloch in his annual report. What do
those words confess logically7 Why, that pro-
tectiye tariffs create national wealth. What DO
they avow shamelesslyF Why, that this Ad-
ministration's motive for permitting an addition
through tariff to the countrys stock of wealth
is to enable its citizens to stand taxation
Thanks for even this confession that free-trade
impOverishes a nation and takes from ii its
power TO sustain government, and that the
State can only sOldy stand on the foundation
OF protected manufactures.

The Court Of Appeals has decided the ques-
ton at issue between the Market Fund Com
missioneTs, whereof Police Commissioner Man
iere is the most prominent and the City Coun-
ell of New York, on a motion for mandamus
to compel the latter to enact an ordinance Great
ing market fund or stock, pursuant to a
Legislative act passed in March, 1865, under
which Commissioners were appointed. The
Board of Aldermen refused to enact such an
ordinance. A mandamus to compel them was
granted by the Supreme Court, affirmed at
General Term, and is now finally reaffirmed
by the Court of appeals.

Secretary McCullOch truly says in his annual
report that "the duties upon imported COM
"modities should not be so low as to subject
"the home manufacturers, burdened with heavy
internal taxes to competition with cheaper
"labor and larger capital, which they may be
"unable to sustain" Those last few words
sum the wisdom of international economy. In
using them the Secretary of the Treasury has
prescribed the true principle of the revenue
policy of the United States, and furnished the
plan for framing Tariff. Competition
with cheaper labor and larger capi-
"taln Any Tariff scheme that is not in
telligently and literally based on the diff
ference between the cost of labor here and III
Europe, and the difference between the guam
tity of capital and the interest of money here
and there, will be unscentifically made, and
will fail of its purpose. Mr. Morrilrs commit
tee, i'll the last session of Congress, framed
Tariff that did consider and did allow, for
these differences. The House passed it by
large majority, disregarding the differences
only in respect to railroad iron, glass, and cer-
tain chemical products. The influence of
foreign importers availed to hang up
this bill in the Senate, in order to
give time TO cOntriye and bring IN
new revenue scheme that should not re-
gard "the competition with cheaper labor
"and larger capital" Six months have rolled by
with their Judgment on this action of the
Senate. The failures, and the stoppages, and

The Republicans of the Legislature yester-
day agreed in caucus upon Mr.. Edmund l..
Pitts OF Orleans as their candidate for Speaker,
and after a quarrel that would shame the
choicest episodes of Tammany, the Democratic
caucus pledged its vote for Jarvis Lord OF
Monroe. The election of Mr. Pitts will undOubted-
ly satisfy the best interests of the State. In all
the reformatory measures of late carried
through the Legislature, and especially as
friend to this city, and an enemy of its rob-
bers, Mr. Pitts has been an earnest and able
worker.
