Admiral Dahlsrsa . she Naval Dimculty NJ
We published yesterday the letter Of Admi-
raj Dahlgren TO Mr.. Hovey, United States Min
lister in Peru, which has been received at the
State Department with regard to q Peruvian
naval commander refusing to extend the usual
courtesies to the of1eers Of our government
vessels In the harbor Of Valparaiso. This let
ter IL in admirable temper and mild, considering
the circumstances, though Admiral Dahlgren
had cause enough to be more severe. No
American can read the letter without feeling
that the Peruvian government has acted badly
and in an unfriendly manner in the matter. II
was bad enough to employ Tucker in the Peru
Wan navy, and especially to give him the high
rank Of Rear Admiral, when It was known he
was an unpardoned rebel and renegade from
the United States; but the offence was
much aggravated when the Peruvian Minister
shielded this man In his fagrantly discourteous
conduct toward our officers. II 10 enough to
rouse ones anger to know that this rebel
should be permitted 70 rudely repel eourtesies
rendered 10 him in his new position BY our
ofaoers, which he did not deserve, without an
apology being made BY the government en-
ploying him. There has evidently been laol

Decision of the Supreme Court I'm tho nIissis.
sippi Injunction Case.

Decision of the Supreme Court In tho Missls-
sippi Injunction Case.
The decision of the Supreme Court, delivered
by Chief Justice Chase, in the Mississippi in
junction case, will be universally approved
The Court refused leave to file a bill to enjoin
and restrain the President and his subordinate
officers from carrying out the reconstruction
acts of Congress. 1t is unnecessary to restate
the argument Of the Chief Justice, which we
published yesterday, and we will only remark
that the South itself has reason to rejoice at o
decision which sweeps away the obstruction
that Sharkey, Walker and other impracticabIe
State rights theorists would have thrown In
the way Of restoration. '
With regard to the Georgia bill of complaint
for similar purpose, though upon somewhat
different proceedings, the Court decided to allow
a bill to be filed. But further proceedings in
the case are postponed till the regular term Of
the Court in December. From the progress of
the work Of reconstruction and the prospects
before us we have reason to hope the Southern
States will be prepared for restoration before
this case could be heard. II this be accom-
plished and Representatives and Senators from
those States take their seats in Congress, as
now seems probable, the Supreme Court may
be relieved OF the trouble Of hearing the
Georgia complaint; for what will Georgia have
to complain of when restored and she shall
have the privileges accorded to her which
are enjoyed by all the other Statest II would
be like man suing for his property after it had
been restored to him. But whether the work
Of restoration be so far advanced by December
or not, we have no fear Of the action Of the
Court. It is now evident that this high tribunal
Is not going to do anything that might obstruct
reconstruction under the acts OF Congress. II
will not perpetuate disorgAnization and Its
consequent evils by technical distractions. II
knows that Congress is the supreme power, and
that If the Court itself should stand in the way
OF speedy restoration, that body has the power
to remodel the Court. We see, then, all
branches of the government, as we'll as the
people of the South themselves, assisting In
the work Of reconstruction as marked out by
the acts of Congress. Such being the case we
may safely hope that we are approaching the
end of our sectional dificulties

greater scale 90 that the comparison between
particularly when it is instructive. The case Of
Mr.. johnson is that Of Q man who overwrought
his chances he did too much. As mettle-
some horse breaks loose and runs away at .
speed far greater than his driver would have
put him to, so the great would-be Reconstruction
fairly ran himself to death over course that
he might have made his own at an easy amble.
Mr.. johnson had only to, summon Congress and
act in accordance with it /; but he would be
somebody Moses, great leader, and, ,forsooth,
protector; he would stand between men and
the consequences Of their own acts even, and
thus force a conflict between parts Of the gov
ernment, and war of vetoes, all ending in the
deepest injury 70 the interests of those he pre-
tended to defend q people unfortunate in
their position and doubly unfortunate in such
champion. He will. have ample opportunity
in the retirement Of his future life to indulge
many philosophical reflections on the great
rals Of Moses and may even follow the COM
parison of the great leaders exclusion from
the general entrance into the promised land Of
o political millennium.
Your political Moses may be Of every size.
As there was bull to roar and below In the

pie Of all parts Of the United States, 80 would
Mr.. Holman protect the people of all parts Of
the city. Should there be any Ann street jobs

it, private motive on the Abliesial as we'll az
the municipal theatre. HOFFMAN and johnson
battled for the people all the more earnestly
for being themselves very important part OF
the people, and for believing that their own
antipathies must be the antipathies Of all
properly constituted minds. Hoffman opposed
the opening Of Ann street because he sup
posed that II was to be done for the HsRAr.D,
and be did II in the name Of the people, though
the people are the real sufferers--a fact as
obvious as the Broadway bridge. He vetoed
that, but he did not veto the Post once mea-
sure; for that was his own little pet and there
fore, Of coarse, could neither hurt nor rob the
innocent people.

Insurasce-The Jews Ard Jew Risks.
II is proverbial that when man b over
taken by any great sorrow he suddenly at-
tempts to tear all his hair out BY the roots, -
II badness were a remedy for grief But .
heavy heart is quite consistent with . shining
poll, and the connection between this common
line ofconduct and Ill fortune Is not 30 obvious
as that between cause and effect ought to be.
We find the same fault with the course taken
by some very respectable Israelites Of our city
with regard to insurance. We think that these
gentlemen are taking up the cudgel In case
in which, II they are concerned at all, 1t ought
to be on the other side.
No insurance company, we believe, has yet
refused to insure any respectable merchant OF
this or any other city, be he Jew or Gentle.
But 1t seems that there IL class of swindleD
who get large insurance on small stocks, and
then are conveniently burned out; and the
companies say that an unusual proportion OF
this class are men Of Jewish race. We sup
pose that the most respectable Jews do not
deny that there may be Jewish as well as
Christian rogues, and this, perhaps, is the de-
velopment that roguery has taken in that
financiering race. This is not at all improba-
BILE; and, supposing 1t to be true. how does 1t
concern that large number Of our citizens
who are hraelites, and who yield to none
in their high integrity, in their ability
as merchants and brokers, and In the whole
purity Of their lives Not at all, we should say,
unless 1t might stimulate these gentlemen to
assist the companies in the exposure Of these
rogues for the credit of their class, and lest
even temporary odium should be brought on
better men.
This, ii seems to us, should be the true posi-
ton of our Jewish citizens in this case. There
cannot be any question now, and In this city,
Of persecution Of sect as sect. But as
this is purely matter of business 1t must ar
range itself on business principles, and there
will be discrimination against dishonest deal
ers. Some Of these, perhaps, do not live far
from Chatham street If 30, exalted protests
against the discrimination on the part Of those
who live in better quarters will be absurd, and,
like the tearing of the hair, more laughable
than effective.

Asericaa = Rnterpriss and tho Paris Expesi-
tisn.
we have information by cable that the
American yachts Fleetwing, vesta and Hen
rietta were al ready for sea yesterday at South
ampton. We do not know where they are
gong whether to run Q channel race round
the British islands or to start on voyage for
the discovery of some new territory in which
the United States government can invest its
capital. However, it is not unlikely that this
little Transatlantic American squadron will be
largely reinforced during the coming season;
for we observe that there is great activity in
the yacht business. Two or three fine schoon-
ers Of three hundred tons are being built in
this city, which will be very fast, trim boats,
and there are few more In construction at
Boston. We should not be surprised to see
squadron of such yachts as the Alarm, the
Phantom, the Halcyon, the Widgeon, and per-
haps some Of the new boats making cruise
or running sweepstakes across the Atlantic.
This summer race may not be as exciting or as
risky as the winter race Of last year, but no
doubt 1t will be quite as pleasant, and may
obtain in enjoyment what 1t lacks in nov city.
1t appears that the American part Of the
great show in Paris is q little meagre SO far in
the matter of machinery, shirts. pianos and
Indians But we are not very particular about
these things Our machinery is good enough
for all domestic purposes; so are our shirts.
Our pianos are as familiar as household
tunes in every dwelling in America; and
as for our Indians Of whom only a small spe-
cimen have gone to France, we have plenty
more left of the same sort on oil our Western
prairies, and we do not know what to do with
them. The Paris Exposition can have as large
q variety in the greatest number that may be
required. They might make q very exciting
whirl in the American department, particularly
If they were to indulge in musical war
who op.
There are some things, however, upon which
we do pride ourselves, and they are probably
as well known to the European people as to US.
We can put down civil war - quickly, raise
ss large armies, build AZ good iron-clads, as.
fast yachts, kill as many men In battle, con-
struct as fine railroads and as bad ones, burst
more boilers, get up bigger fires, and create as
large national debt as any other nation on the
face ofthe EARTH We have now on hand in our
various Atlantic ports and on the Mississippi
river number Of superfuous iron-clads and
Monitors which we can dispose of to Spain, If
she should get into trouble with England, or to
Russia, in case Of an unpleasant completely
with the East The interest on the money in
vested In them would 60 good way towards
buying foreign real estate, into which business
we are going so extensively. When our yachts

The character Of the nominations for dele
gates to the State Constitutional Convention to
be expected from the Tammany democracy
may be gathered from the account published
in to-day's HERALD Of the disgracsful scenes
enacted at the Fourth Senatorial District Con-
vention Of that interesting and spirited organi-
xation. On Monday night the proceedings
were broken up by the roughs of the First
ward. Yesterday the Sixth warders held con-
troll of the Convention, and the presence Of .
strong body Of police was necessary to pre-
vent bloodshed. This is the district repre-
sented by the Hon. Ben Wood in the State
Senate and mainly by the Hon. John Fox in
Congress.
