nrincipalities of ROumana and Servia, which
together have a population of 100000, are
no less hostile to the Turks than the
Greeks; they have achieved virtual inde-
pendence. and do not conceal their desire to
use the earliest opportunitS for cutting the
last tie which binds them to the hated
Mohammmedan Empire. They are eager
for new contest, and will hardly
resist the temptation to improve the
favorable opportunity which war between
Turkey and Greece would afford them. The
reports of the most trustworthy travellers and
the tone of the newspapers published by the
several Chrstrian tribes in Turkey make 1t, ut
least, highly probable that the immense ma
iority of the entire Christian population OF
Turkey will be in open sympathy with Greece
In European Turkey, where the Mohammedans
count only 100000, against 1l,5OO,oOO Chris
tans, a general alliance of the Christians with
the Greeks could hardly fail to result soon In
the total expulsion of the Turks.
II is. therefore, no mad attempt on the part
of little Greece to risk a war against Turkey
for the deliverance and annexation of Crete.
She has reasonable hopes for success as long
as no foreign power interferes in behalf of
Eastern question during the past two years
clearly shows, is not to be expected; on the
contrary, there is almost certainty OF Greece
having from the start powerful allies. The Gov
emment of Russia has long demanded from Tur-
key, in threatening notes, the cession OF Crete
to Greece and the Russian people would hal
with intense delight declaration of war. The
Prussian Government has repeatedly and en-
phatcally declared its entire concurrence with
the policy of Russia in the Eastern question
Austria, France, and England have, at least,
given the Turks no hope of aid In case OF a
new Eastern war, but have repeatedly Jolned
Russia and Prussia in urging upon the Porte
the necessity of making concessions to the
Christian provinces. Thus Greece has much
greater reason to hope for aid from abroad
than Turkey
A war between Greece and Turkey is likely
TO bring on the crisis in the Eastern question
II will throw the whole of Eastern Europe INTO
.hc widest excitement, and it may soon put
m end to the rule of the Moslems in Europe,
and prepare the ground for the erection OF
new States in accordance with the wishes of the
majority of the population.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONTENTION

In naked justice, the people of this State
must pay sufficient heed to the proceedings of
their Constitutional Convention TO note and
discriminate those members who are Justly
obnoxious to the censures which are thought
lessly layished Oh the entire body. Let us
specify:
The Convention met, pursuant to law, on
| Tuesday, June 4th. Nine weeks have since
interyened. One of these, which contained the
4th of July, was passed in recess. Of the other
eight, considerable portion of each has been
lost through adjournments from Friday to the
succeeding Monday. At the hour appointed
for reassembling, no quorum appears; so that
the day is wasted in awaiting or more actively
seeking to obtain one. If the Convention
declines to adjourn over when asked, O
large portion of the members take French
leave, and return when convenient. And not
only has large third of the time of the body
been wasted by adjOurnments over aud the
lack of a quorum, but members gravely rise in
their places and ask that decision on the
pending question be postponed because A. b.
and c. are absept,9 who desire to speak
or to vote thereon! That slow progress
is made under such circumstances, may
10 VI DuJ surely nOJ OF
wonder. Add that members cOolly rise and ask
leave, or absent themselves after instructing
Others to ask it, expressly on the ground of
their holding other offices which require part
OF their time, and we may judge of the pros
pect that the work of the Convention will be
seasonably concluded.
Last week, the Convention decided that it
would sit on alternate weeks five and six days
adjOurning at p. m. last Saturday to 10 a. m.
of the following Monday, and at p. m. of the
ensuing Friday to ~ p. m. of the
succeeding Monday, so as to give most of the
Members opportunity TO visit their homes once
in each fortnight. This was deemed quite lib
eral, and was generally assented TO- But,
when Monday morning came, there was no
quorum-some thirty members of the Conven-
tion being absent on leave, and eighty
or ninety more without leave. The day was
unavoidably spent in obtaining a quorum
none being present till about D. m. Of course,
no progress was made; so but three and half
days work can be accomplished this week. But
it is trusted that the efforts thus rendered
necessary will secure quorum hereafter.
1t is midsummer. The weather is hot, and
many people are accustomed to spend August
in cool resorts by seaside or mineral foun-
tain. we can understand If not excuse their
preference. But wbat right have these.

LnULSI1N1.

II Sheridan is not removed he will soon finish
the preparations for Constitutional Conven-
tion i'm Louisiana. The Boards of Registers
have nearly finished the enrolment OF voters,
and are ready to execute Sherdans order to
prepare poll-books and voting places. 1t is
expected that in short time an order direct
ing an election 10 be held for delegates To the
Convention will be issued. The latest returns
make the total of registered voters IN the State
1896. of whom t,lGG are whites and 1880
blacks. The Conservative papers conccde' upon
these figures, Radical majority of over 3O,OoO {;
and as during the past month less than 1000
names have been added to the lists in the
whole State, there can he no hope
OF reducing it. The cOlOrcd men have
decisive majority in all the parishes but six
and those are the smallest in the State The
Neo- Orleans Times il unquestionably right In
its conclusion that the political complexion OF
this Convention seems TO be- already decided
"bcyond question. That it will be oyerwhelm-
"ingly Radical there can scarcely exist doubt
"Thc prcpondernnce of blacks registered is very
"large. and rs a mass they will vote the Radi-
cal ticket The colored persons who express
"a determination TO cooperate with the Con
Gas 10 prove that they are only exceptions
"to the general rule. OF course, even at
"this hte day, enough colored people might
possibly be influenced 10 elect dele
gates to the Convention in some
81 few Of the parishes; but we believe it would
be impossible to materially reduce the large
"m,jorty which the Radicals seem destined TO
have, and therefore it is better to look this
matter boldly in the face and determine to
make the best of it," All this shows with
how little delay Sheridan has done his work,
and how little remains to organize loyal civil
government. His removal, we are afraid, will
be largely due to his success. We do not be-
licye that the President desires Radical Con-
ventiOn to be held in Louisiana, for it is not
forgotten that he defended the massacre. OF

THE REFORM BILL PISSED.

About two o'clock Oh the morning OF Tues
day, July 10, the Reform bill was read third
time and passed in the House of Commons.
Mn. Disraeli, rs was his right, made the closing
speech in debate which lasted for seven
hours, in which, beside himself, Lord Gran
bourne, Mr.. Lowe, Mr.. Bright, Lord Elcho, Mr..
B. Osborne, Mr.. Laing, and other less-kn0wn
members took part. His address. vindicating
the policy of the Government, satirizing
some of the Opposition, and breathing respect
and even degree of gratitude to Mr. Bright,
Mr.. Gladstone, aud other honorable and fair
antagonists, concluded with fcrvid expression
of triumph as well as hope. His closing words
were:
a. for nv part do not believe that the country Is In

nhabit her that she is safe In something much more

His brilliant peroration elected cheers from all
parts of the House, and we learn, that contrary
to all precedent as well as to the rules OF the
assembly, "the spectators in the gallery, ear
"ried away by the enthusiasm OF the moment,
shared in the applause by clapping their
hands, Only those who know how rigid is
the rule in the British House of Commons
(where even the presence OF visitors Is so little
recognized that on q members stating that
There are strangers in the gallery" the House
mast at once be cleared of all except members
and ofcials), can realize the excitement which
thus exceeded bounds.
The Reform bill was read first time in the
House of Lords on the motion OF Lord Derby,
on July H. was read second time, on July
80 and was considered in Committee on Mon
day last July 20. The Lords amended" the
measure by increasing the pecuniary qualifica-
tion of some of the rs-paricularly that the
suffrage, instead of being conferred upon dodgers
paying 81 week rent shall not be given to any
who do not pay 81 80. The motive of these
amendments" is palpably to obstruct Reform
This was the policy of the Lords in former
years In September 1882, after five nights de-
bates, they rejected the Reform bill of the Grey
Ministry by majority of Al. In March, 1857
another Reform bill was before the Lords, and,
after four nights struggle, its second reading
was carried by small majority OF nine-tpe
Tory party, which was the stronger reserVing
itself to Gut w tba measure IN committee.
New-York tribune., 1867-08-07

1t is stated that on the death of Pope Plus
TX. the Government Of France would strongly
urge the election OF Bishop Dupanloup OF Or
leans as his successor. Bishop Dupanloup has
the reputation of being, in every respect, one
of the ablest Roman Catholic bishops now llY-
ing; and if elected Pope. would probably soon
make his mark as one of the greatest POpcs Of
modern times; but it is very doubtful whether
the French or any other secular Government
will be able to exercise "a decisive influence at
the next election. The College of Cardinals
has learned to emancipate itself at the election
of Pope from the control of secular Govern
ments, and is not likely to deyiate from the
long established rule to elect none but an
Italian and Cardinal. 1t is fully 300 years
since one who was not an Italian was chosen

Soon after the clauses of the bill which dis
franchsed u large number of close or rotten
boroughs, were postponed, on Lord Lynd-
hursts motion, by majority of 3d. The hlng
William IV) did not like Reform, though he
was pledged TO this wife, Queen Adelaide
fwho condescended to accept $5OO,0OO year,
with the rent-free Royal residence of
Busby Park. from his death in 1887 to hers in
$780, had curtain-lectured him into Torylsm,
the normal condition of Royalty. From him
the Grey Ministry exacted promise, IN writ
ing, and duly signed and dated, that he would
consent to their creating sufficient number OF
Peers to swamp the Tory majority. In the
reign of Queen Anne (on the last day OF 17lD,
the Ministry induced her to create twelve
peers, to make a majority hostile to the
dangerous power of the Duke Of Marlborough.
1t was in connection with this that Lord Whar-
ton asked one of the twelve whether they
voted by their foreman. When the Lords, III
1882 found that theyiwere Out-Voted by large
number of new peers, they compromised by
sufficient number of them withdrawing from
the debates, so that the measure passed easily.
There might have been revolution in 1882
had the Lords thrown out the Reform bill, for
it was doubtful whether the Grey Ministry
would dare create seventy new peers, ana
fewer would have been insufficient to Out-vote
the Tories There would have been something
like revolution in 1867, if the Lords had in-
sisted on amending" Disrael's Reform bill.
But the Lords knew better. On Monday night,
August 8, they reconsdered the amendment"
increasing the LOdger franchise, and rejected
it, Last night the bill was finally read for the
third time, and passed. Thus the first great
step toward the transformation of the English
Constitution has been taken.
New-York tribune., 1867-08-07
TURKEY AND GREECE.

If the Greek Government has really resolved,
as was announced n few days ago by Cable
dispatch, to declare war against Turkey OF the
1st of September, in case by that time hostli-
ties against the Christians of Crete have not
ceased, we are most probably OH the eve Of
great war; with far-reaching results. Greece,
it is true, is small country compared with
Turkey, having no more than 100000 Of peo-
pie against the 3j,OO00OO commonly attributed
to Turkey but notwithstanding this disprOpor-
tionate power of the two countries, the open par
ticipation of Greece in the war would at once
change its aspect. II is now longer than q year
that Turkey, at peace with all foreign coun-
tries, has made the greatest military exertions
to put down the insuTection of one single
island containing n population of less than
half million inhabitants, of whom One-third
are Mohammcdans and fanatical partisans of
Turkish rule. This small island, unsupported
by any ally, has kept the whole Turkish army
at bay, and, as the latest Cable dispatches show,
is still unsubdued. The Turkish Government
fluids itself, moreover, in terrible financial
embarrassment, finding it recently even difficult
to raise the means of delrsying the expenses
of the Sultan to Western Europe If, there
iOlc, iWhcyJ CNha"elcu ~ HiltnCldi anu
greatly weakened in a mllaary point of view,
has to raise new army against Greece, it will
put her resources to the severest test. The
standing army of Greece is only ten thousand
men; but as, according to all accounts, the most
unbounded and unanimous enthusiasm per-
vades the whole people, we may expect that
she will be able to raise military force not in
ferior to that of an American State like Mas
sachusetts during the late war.
The appearance of hostile army of some
$4,000 men, on the southern border, is danger
which the Turkish Government will be sure not
to underrate. But this is not all. The moment
war between Greece and Turkey is declared, the
immense majority of the Greek subjects of
Turkey will aid Greece in every possible way.
They number more than 100000. Among them
are the wealthiest subjects of the Porte. They
hold in particular, control of thu southern
provinces of European Turkey Ctpirus and
Thessaly), and of most of the Mediterranean
islands The Greeks, therefore, are by 10 means
too sanguine, if they expect that without great
difficulty they may be able to occupy from the
start commanding position in Southern
Turkey, and to harass without ceasing
the whole length of the Turkish coasts.
The sentiments of the Greeks with regard to
Turkey will to large extent be shared by
the other Christian races Of the Empire. Thetwo
New-York tribune., 1867-08-07

A comparison of the statements OF the public
debt in June and August shows no great
changes. Mr. McCulloch's estimates, however,
for the Fall. show decided decrease i'll the
revenue. as there is large matured debt not
prescnted for payment, and much of the rev
eDue has been anticipated in collection. Unless
prompt steps are taken to collect the tax OH
whisky, which should alone give the Govern
ment S0O,OOO,OOO, a serious deficit appears GER
tain. This is the natural result of the action
of Congress last Winter, i'll relieving many
wealthy branches of industry of taxation. We
protested then against the extension of the free
list, and its evils are now becoming evident.
