Our shipping intelligence for days past has
presented in a striking manner the effects of
the recent great storm. Almost all the vessels,
of whatever class, which were approaching
this port suffered from its fury. The daily
list of arrivals is a reiteration of the one re-
port-lost top-sails split sails, stove bulwarks,
driven south to latitude 81, II days north of
Hatteras, etc. The ship Universe, which ar
rived yesterday from Liverpool, after losing
three men in the gale of the 18th, while re-
turning northward to her course, fell in with
Philadelphia coal schooner in sinking condi-
ton, the captain and crew Of which had been
on the wreck for 10 days, four days without
fire, food or water. This month Will he MEM

Mr.. Steyenss bill to amend the Reconstruc-
ton act by modifying the provision which re-
qures first a majority of all the registered
votes to be cast at the election, and then
majority of those cast to be for the constitution,
is wise one, and we trust will be as promptly
passed by the Senate as it has been by the
House. At present, those opposed to the adop-
ton Of the new constitutions are reinforced
by all who fail to vote, whether from intimida-
ton, fraud, force illness, or other cause OF
absence from the polls. The question, like
all others, should be decided by those who
vote. not by those who do not vote. The pro-
vision requiring members of Congccss to be
elected at the same time will facilitate the
speedy readmission Of the Southern States, and
the only wonder is that manifest neces-
sity should have been overlooked in the orig
inal bill

For some time, tho news from our sister
Republic of Mexico has been of the most sat
isfactoly character. The last vestiges of civil
war are disappearing; the highwaymen are put
down with energy and success the evil proph-
ecies of some interested and dishonest spccula-
tors have proved to be untrue, and Congress
consisting of ADLER men than have ever assem-
bled in Mexico has begun, in full harmony
with the President, the work Of reconstruc-
ton. The speech of the President of the Re
public on opening Congress, and the reply Of
the President of the Congress, will be read
throughout America with profound interest.
During the fierce ordeal through which the
Mexican Republic has had to pass, it received
the wamest expressions Of sympathy from
every republic of the American Continent.
The fact is gratefully acknowledged, both by
Juarez and by the President of the Congress.

II is creditable to Mr.. Gladstone that he has
sufficiently emancipated himself from the usual
prcjudices of his nation to find the cause OF
Fenianism in the shocking misgovernment of
Ireland by England. If ever an understanding
is to be made possible between England and
Ireland, it will not be 10y executing Fenians
and suppressing liberty of meeting and OF
speech, but by frank recognition of the out
rageous conduct Of England toward
Ireland during the three last centuries and by
a disposition to redress the grievances of Ire
land

The occurrence of distinct shocks of earth
quake in the Northern parts Of the United
States, though an unusual, is not an unpre-
cedented event. The great earthquake which
destroyed the City of Lisbon in 1866 was felt
along the coast of Massachusetts,, where it
knocked down chmneys, disjointed houses,
and opened great assures in the ground. Tho
motion lasted about 10 minutes. The waters ot
Lake Ontario Mt the same time were severely
agitated. In 1911 there was violent earth
quake along the Mississippi, extending oil
through the country between tho mouths
of tho st. Francis and Ohio Rivers,
which are 800 miles apart, and repeated at
short intervals during two or three months
The ground rose and sank lakes were formed
and drained, chasms opened and belched forth

Tie Cunard passenger steamers are to be en-
tirely Withdrawn from Boston, because that
eminently genteel little city has not trade
enough to render them profitable. The Boston
merchants have naturally protested against the
removal, but Mr.. i. Cunard answers them that
while New-York shippers were paying him 4Os
and sos. a tun freight he had difficulty in get
ting POS. tun in Boston, often took 5s tun
and sometimes when he offered to take freight
for nothing could not find goods enough in all
Boston to fill his holds, and had to sail with
stone ballast Boston, he thinks, may be very
nice place, and. perhaps, in course of time may
develop respectable commerce with the Old
World but at present lac finds New-York and
Philadelphia much more important sea ports,
and he declines to be at any further expense in
fostering the sickly trade of the metropolis of
Massachusetts.

stitutional before It was passed, he may, as q
lawyer, very properly have held it to be his
own and the Presidents duty to obey it when
passed until it should be declared invalid by
the Supreme Court. The President assumes
that, if an officer believes bill before Congress
to be unconstitutional, it is his duty to disobey
it after it has become law by two-thirds
vote over the Presidents veto.
The true reason why the President removed
Stanton, Sheridan, Sckles and all the Repub-
licans whom he has removed, is one, viz: their
loyalty to the principle of Liberty to which
the President is q renegade.
