The Question OF Color.

The Democratic stump speakers i'll
Ohio, in their resistance TO the enlran-
chising OF the colored citizens, present
the issue that any white rebel aud trait
or is better than the most faithful and
patriotic black man, They resist the
disfranchisement of any white man for
the worst of all crimes, and they resist
the enlrauchisement of black men,
whose color was the sure marx OF loyalty
in the national struggle. They would
put the rebel leaders, without any token
Of repentance, into the control of their
States and of the National Government,
while they would deny any political
rights to the small colored population
OF Ohio, whose fidelity and good CON
duct cannot be impcached. In short,
they would establish it as n Democratic
principle TO control our governmental
policy, that white traitor is better
than q black faithful citizen,
Is it probable that the moral sense Of
the people can be degraded TO accept
that rule? They provoke us to compare
these colored citizens of Ohio with those
who demand their disfranchlsement
What insolenCe can surpass that OF
these persons who did all they could to
destroy their country, who now come
before the people and demand that
faithful and patriotic citizens shall be
disfranchiscd, while they, the traitors,
retain their sweet voices in the Govern
ment7 Compare Vallandigham with
the citizens whom he assails-the traitor
pronouncing disabilities on the loyal
citizen. We had better organize the
feIons of the penitentiary into high
court to try the people.
If citizens are to be disfranchised
where should it begin; What right
have they who tried to destroy the
country to a voice in its government
If they had succeeded the country would
now be broken into fragments. They
have no rights in the coun try; for il
their treachery had prevail led the coun-
try would not now be in existence.
They are those whom johnson thus
described:
II Is not the men in the field who are the great
est traitors. II Is the men who have encouraged
them to imperll their lives, while they Themselves
have remained at home, expending their means
aud exerting oil their power to overthrow the
Government. Hence | say this "'Ihe halter tC
Intelligent influential traitors. But TO the honest
boy, to the dcluded man who had been deceived
into the rebel ranks, would extend lenicncy;
would say return to your allcgieuce renew yOur
support to the Government and become u good
citizen; but the leaders would hang"
These gallows birds who have escap-
cd hanging by the unparalleled magma
nimity of the loyal people, and who
have Justly forfeited all political rights,
have the insoence to demand that
faithful citizens of Ohio shall be exclud-
ed from the suffrage on account of their
oomplexionj to demand that traitors
shall be elevated to power and loyal
citizens disiranchised What complex
ion is so black as their trcasonl The
concentrated odor of all Africa would
not be so noxious as the odor Of the
infamy Of these Ohio leaders, whose
course through all the war was a course
of busy treachery. Cincinnati Gdscttc.

PROTECTION FROM FIRE.

Mr.. M'LAGAN, in rising to move for a
Select Committee to inquire into this subject,
said that the numerous fires which had occurred
within the last few years, the mystery with
which the origin of many of them had been in
vested, the suspicious character of not a few Of
them, and the serious losses, both of life and
property. with which others had been attended,
had directed public attention to the whole ques-
ton Of fires. There was a strong opinion
abroad that a Parliamentary inquiry should be
instituted, with the view of devising the best
means that could be adopted foP the protection
of life and property from fire. He but joined
in the expression of that opinion in asking for
the appointment Of a Select Committee, which
would be a natural sequence to the Select Com.
mittee on Fires in the Metropolis, which sat in
1862, of which the hon. member for Peterbo-
rough was chairman, and to which we were iu-
debted for much useful information and many
valuable suggestions. The principal points
which would have to be inquired into we're
LIST, the proper construction of public buildings
and warehouses, upon which depended very
much the prevention of fires spreading Cd, the
means for extinguishing fires, under which head
were included the supply Of water and the ar
rapgements and appliances that could be brought
into action on the outbreak of a fire, such as
the establishment of fire brigades, fire engines,
Sc. and Sd, the expediency of having a judi.
cial investigation into all fires. The import.
ance of providing some means for preventing
the rayages Of fire was acknowledged at a very
early period. The Romans, for instance. had
bands of men whose principal duty was to watch
for and e~xtingnish fres.. About 800 years ago
it was enacted in this country that all fires in
houses should be extinguished at the ringing Of
the curfew bell, under . penalty, and about 800

THE IRISH AND EASTERN QUESTIONS
-RUSSIA'S CIRCULAR FOR THE
REDRESS OF IRELAND.

The Russian government, with the APP
probation of the Gear, has come forth as
the champion of Ireland, and furnishes
by a solemn diplomatic act, one of the
most original, perhaps startling, of the
many exciting political events which are
being evolved SO rapidly around us. A
Russian circular has been addressed to
the Ministers of the empire in Washing
ton, Paris and London, requesting them
to call the attention of the governments
to which they are accredited to the state
of offairs existing in Ireland, and instruct
ing them to represent that, Gin the opin-
ion of the Russian Cabinet, the condition
of that island invites a joint inquiry on
the part of the governments of Russia,
France and the United States in conjunc-
ton with that of Great Britain"
This diplomatic coup furnishes on the
part Of Prince Gortschakof a most telling
retort to the recent allied action of
France, Prussia, Austria, Italy and Eng
land, in proposing TO Russia the plan of
a Joint Turco-C Christian Investigation of
the situation i'll Gambia as a means Of re-
dressing the barbarities committed on the
long-suffering Christian subjects of the
Porte, instead of Immediately relieving
them by active Intervention. It consti-
tutes a grand Russian State flank move
ment, and one which is likely TO be very
successful.
An inquiry into the condition of Ire
land! Why, it is just the subject for the
American peoples and placed before them
by their friend the Gear will no doubt
prove a most prominent topic of agitation
during the entire Presidential canvass
Napoleon cannot refuse to hear the cause

Russia has benefited largely by Irish valor,

The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-05-11

The sad results of the Mexican expedition.
and the manner in which he was out-gene-
rallied by Bismark have done an infinite deal
towards destroying the prestige of Napoleon.
A growing dissatisfaction with his manage
ment of internal affairs expresses itself in
murmurs throughout France France has
found, as Europe has found, that no one bet
ter than Napoleon knows how to 'sspeal, the
word Of promise TO the ear, and break it to
the hope" France is becoming tired of being
held in leading strings, and wants more liberty
and the reforms which the Emperor promises.
The professed liberty of the press and the right
oimeeting turn to ashes before even thew reach
the lips of the hungry and expectant neople.
The terrible army conscripton takes from the
field and from the workbench the flower of the
French youth, and the new proiec. for reor-
ganizatiOn will make every man a soldier.
Extravagant expenditures have entailed
heavy taxation and high prices, and i'm Paris
nearly fifty thousand workmen of different
branches of trade are ''striking'' for living
wages. The Emperor will, with all the ele-
ments of discomfort now existing in France
risk much in the war which now seems inevi-
table. Should he win, the French love for
military glory, the French admiration for sue
cess, might be sufficient to cover over his
growing unpopularity and give him a new
lease of power. But should he fail In such
case, it is more than probable that the dis
cordant elements now exhibiting themselves
in France would combine against him, and that
the French people would demand, and assert
in their usual manner their demand for a
change of rulers.

Regulating Travel.

from the Times.
A Railroad and Steamboat Convention has
been in session at Cleveland, Ohio, during the
present week, ostensibly for the settlement of
existing difficulties respecting freight. If the
deliberations of those assembled could be
expected to prevent the recurrence of such
conflict of interests as that which fell out be-
tween the Erie and Central Railroads at the
close of navigation last year, the public might
reasonably hope to be to some extent gamers.
Judging from the past history of these con-
ventions-and it does not run long way
back-f the corporations interested gain as
little as the toll-paying multitude have usually
gained, the conferences of railway and steam
boat men can hardly amount to great deal.
The meeting of two classes of public carriers
i'm a common council need not, necessarily
indicate an alliance inimical to fair competi-
lion, and, therefore, at variance with the in
7erests of the community at large. And vet it
mas happened that steamboat and railroad
companies running on parallel lines of travel
have been often enabled to maintain high
tariffs by a combination which, although II
might be in a sense legitimate, certainly did
not minister in any degree to the public
AGAIN. the fact has not failed to attract
sbe attention especially of business men, who
are alike interested in having as few break
aces as possible in the carriage OF freigh
fo distant points, and in keeping charges

Justice Chase he ought to preside; but it is
understood that although he may be present
to give his advice if called for by the prosecu-
