Lord Derby's Dilemma.

The English Premier is evidently in an
awkward predicament on the Reform ques ion.
1t is equally announcement for him to move on or
to stand still. The Lords having declined to
sanction Mr.. Disraeli's reform scheme without
raising the rate of qualification, an immense
stumbling block is thrown in the way of the
government How to get over 1t is difficult
problem. Lord Derby might do as Earl Grey
did to secure the passage Of the previous
reform measure in lS32-he might apply TO
the Queen to create sufficient number of new
peers to secure the passing OF the bill. But
here would be the difficulty. The men who
would consent to become peers in order to push
through the House OF Lords bill for extend
ing the elective franchise would be Of neces-
sity men Of liberal sentiments. On all other
questions except this one question Of reform,
which it suits the convenience Of the tory
party to take up just now, they would be likely
to act against Lord Derby and his party, and
would soon bring his tenure Of Office to an
end. A creation Of new peers, therefore, is
impoliic. To stand quietly by and allow the
popular agitation to 60 on till 1t reaches the
proportions Of revolution would be still more
unwise. The only practical and sensible course
il for the peers to give in, and let the voice OF
the people for once control the destnies Of the
country

Advice to .Iuarcz,

After fifty years Of civil war Mexico is now
comparatively at peace. The republic is in
your hands. Take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity Centralize your government. Crush
those absurd state rights which the Governors
of the different I" free and sovereign States"
claim to hold. Make every military COM
mauder and every State Governor directly
responsible to the central authority. Suppress
brigandage and encourage industry. To do
this you must have roads, telegraphs, railways
and uninterrupted communication See that
your Legislature bestirs itself in this matter.
America is not going to be cajoled BY France,
England or any other Power, into an interven-
ton In your affairs, either in the guise of
protectorate or in any other shape The Mont
teur urges the United States to interfere, hoping
thu, to make the Washington government
responsible, as administrator 10 the effects OF
Mexico, for the French indemnity. Butwe are

The President and tho Five Military Com
manders.

The President and tho Five Military Com
The President wants to remove General
Sheridan. He is still so deeply incensed against
Congress for thwarting his policy that he seems
more determined than ever to fight 1t out on
the Same old line. The radical organs are
gratided at Witnessing his obstinacy, and are
repeating our own question, "Why not dismiss
ell five Of the district commandment But
they have purposes Of their own in urging him
on to a course of action which might result
disastrously enough for him. They know we'll,
and he should remember, that pulling brick
out here and there never mends matters and
is always liable to make the whole structure of
circumstances topple and fall on ones head.
He had better ie. the Reconstruction law alone,
and "accept the situation" He should be
warned by the result of the election in Tennes-
see, his own State, that the question Of recon-
struction is no longer mere personal issue
between him and Congress. 1t has been driven
far beyond that petty point by this memorable
and significant election. There is now no doubt
that the whole South will in due time be thor
oughly reconstructed according to the will Of
tho people as set forth in the Congressional
programme
Nevertheless, by those who will take pains
to reflect it can be clearly foreseen that when
once the Ten States of the five military districts
shall have wheeled Into line again, and their re-
representatives., white or black as, the case may
be- shall have taken their seats in Congress, the
Southern members Of Congress, whatever diff
fercnt shades OF complexion and of political
partisanship they may exhibit, will all act to-
gether as unit in behalf of their own local
interests. They will soon vote quite independ-
emily of either the defunct democratic party
or the republican party, which is terribly ex-
posed to the death and decomposition await
ing all victorious parties that in the flush of
triumph do not resist temptations to abuse
their power. The emancipated blacks call them
selves Southerners as proudly as their former
masters. Blacks and whites are alike inter
ested in the crops Of their own section, where,
ever since the close of thu war, 80 many planta-
tons have been worked on shares. The hum
BILE field hand and the struting colored Con-
gresham will both, with their friend the
planter, go in for removing the tax on cotton.
And we must not be surprised if we behold
ere long wonderful series of dissolving views,
in which the old political parties, the republi-
can party as we'll as the ghost of the dem
ocratic party, shall successfully disappear,
making room for the grand national party of
the future.
