A Fearful Warning.

Ten thousand tailors in Paris are reported
on strike for higher wages, with numbers Of
men belonging to other trades. Why these
strikes? The extraordinary rise in house rents
and in articles of food of all kinds. Why this
extraordinary rise in all these thingss II
arises from the "great expectations" of all con-
cerned in reference to the grand Exhibition de-
signed to draw the pleasure seekers and the
spare change of ell nations to the French capi-
tai Upon these expectations, il appears, house
rents and provisions have gone up to such
awful figures in Paris as to Tighten away hum
dreds and thousands of people who had other
wise intended trip to the Exhibition from all
parts of France, the Continent, the British
islands and America, Mort Cent? al and South.
The chances of terrible European war are
operating in the same way to the prejudice Of
Napoleon's raree-show. These strikes among
the tradesmen of Paris are the first symptoms
of serious danger from the failure Of this grand
speculation and, peace or war, this prevail
ing spirit of discomfort, among these elements
of combustion, involves to the Emperor fear

The object Of the japanese mission has
given rise to good deal Of speculation. The
quidnancs are at loss to conjecture what par
ticular motive they have in visiting us just
now. There are no points In dispute be-
tween US, we do not ask to have any new
ports opened, and we are satisfied that whom

Commissioners Fukusawa Ukitchy and Mat
shino Judajus We think we can enlighten
them on the subject From some admissions
that were CLEANED from them previous to their
departure for Washington It would appear that
they have come here probably at the request
Of the English government TO offer their medi-
alton on the Alabama claims. They have EVIL

can gather, their views are entirely in our favor
BY all means let the question be referred to
them for decision. These Asiatics have sum-

admire that carefulness of detail exhibited on
Thursday in the Printing Bureau Of the Trea-

and seven hundred females-were detained in

there would be no danger of plumber, corrup-

Alta meeting of colored and white republi-
cans in Washington on Thursday night the
former made . considerable figure They
entered into the debate, which was about
nominations for the local Office of Register, in
very lively manner. One Of the speakers
said that the distinguished Senator from Mas
sachusstts, Mr.. Sumner, had sent for him for the
purpose Of urging that one colored man at
least should be elected to the City Council Of
Washington as suggestive and fitting example
to the South. That is right We think, how
ever, that there ought to be more than ono; that
there ought, in fact, in accordance with Mr.. Sum-
ner's radical doctrine Of equal rights, to be .
fair proportion, according to the relative vo!o
of the whites and blacks. And why not negro
Mayor, If the negroes have majority of the
votes, which is probable! There is smack
of insincerity in this recommendation for only
one black member Of the City Council, WIN
the large negro vote is taken into considera-
ton. The radicals seem disposed to dodge the
consequences of their theories. We insist upon
holding them to their platform of equal rights
The majority Of the Washington City Council
and Mayor should be black, according to the
vote. There should be, also, at least six negro
Senators and twenty negro Representatives in
Congress from the Southern, States when they
are reconstructed. Indeed, to have everything
on perfect equality, we must have now and then
negro President Of the republic. Equal rights
is the order Of the day. Nothing like equal
rights for progressive nation like ours.
The New York herald., 1867-04-27

At recent conservative meeting In Peters
burg, Va, it was resolved that equal rights is
the tickct--equal rights between whites and
blacks at the ballot box, in ofices and spoils,
in taxes and in school appropriations and
school houses. This is Southern conservatism
in 1867. In 1861, under the Dred Scott deci-
sion, il was simply this-that, according to tho
constitution, as an inhabitant Of the United
States sthe negro has no rights which white,
man is bound TO respect" Is this q small

We learn that active preparations are being
made to build forthwith the experimental ele-
vated railway which the Legislature has au-
thorized the West Side and Yonkers Patent
Railway Company to construct along Green
wich street for distance Of half mile from
its southerly extremity, near Battery place.
The power to do this Is positive but the fur
ther extension Of the railway along both sides
Of Greenwich street to Ninth avenue and along
both sides Of Ninth avenue or through the
block between Ninth and Tenth avenues to
the Harlem river will depend on the practical
success Of the experimental road. And this
will be decided upon by three commissioners,
two Of whom are to be appointed by the Gov
ernor and one by the Croton Aqueduct Board
Of the city Of New York. II after due inspec-
tion and examination the commissioners shall
approve Of the structure, plan and operation Of
the road, the company is empowered to COM
plete the line to it, full extent The expert
mental section must be finished within one year
from the passage Of the act degal delays ex-
cepted), ,and the extension, II authorized, 80 far
as confined to the limits Of New York, within five
years thereafter. The railway is to be operated
exclusively by means Of propclling cables,
attached to stationary engines placed beneath
or beyond the surface Of any street through
which II may pass. All three Of the companies
incorporated by the law Of 1866 and respec-
lively entitled the West Side and Yonkers, the
Broadway and Yonkers and the East Side and

That interview between JEFF Davis and Sena-
tor Wilson at Fortress Monroe the other day
must have been particularly interesting one.
Wilson's feelings were no doubt somewhat like
those Of the lion tanner, who visits his royal
captive to see how he feels after . rough
lesson. Davis put good face on II and did
not growl, although he no doubt thought that
the humiliation might have been spared him.
It Is well that he took this sensible course.

Hon. William D. Kelley, of Philadelphia, and
Senator Nye, Of Nevada, and some other cleo
tioneering Northern radicals are shortly to fol-
low the example of Senator Wilson, and ''stump
the South" in behalf of the extension Of the
republican party of the North from the Potomac
to the Rio Grande. These are small beginnings;
but as the first of the Southern reconstruction
elections, under the laws of Congress, will not
occur for several MONTHS there is yet plenty
of time for thorough canvassing of the five
military districts by all parties concerned.
Still it il somewhat remarkable that from our
Northern copperhead democracy, who assume
to be par excellence, the expounders and defend
ers of Southern rights, not one single mission
airy has SO far been appointed or volunteered
to their party its old Southern balance Of
power. 1t is strange, too, that none of the
ultra-abolition leaders, Wendell Phillips and
such, and none of our Northern Women's
Rights women, white or black, have yet
plucked up the moral courage, or curiosity, or
patriotism for a stumping tour "among the
pines" Of the Carolinas or the canebrakes Of
Arkansas. We had supposed that with the
very first opening the Northern copperheads
and abolitionists, and all these Northern re-
formers, Of all colors and sexes, would be

other they all hang back. What sachem OF

indicated. The object Of the second is to con-
struct single track railway upon similar
plan to that Of the first on Broadway, from the
Battery to Sixty-fourth street, and thence TO
Yonkers, parallel to the west side line. The
route Of the third will also begin at the Battery

insisted upon the necessity and immense advan-
tages Of some such project as that authorized
by the law which the Legislature passed on
the 18th inst, and the Governor signed on the
Esd. 1t has been in favor of railway that
should run above and through the blocks and
be arched over on the cross streets. If the

mighty and proud republic. What q revolu-
ton! There is nothing like 1t in the history Of
nations. While in Great Britain the mass Of
the white race-of that great Anglo-Saxon race
which has shown so much intellect and capacity
for selfgovernment-are not deemed ct to have
the suffrage, we have given IL to the negroes
just set free from slavery. This has not been
done out Of love for the negro, nor because he
is deemed intelligent enough to have the
suffrage, but because the politicians want TO
use him.
The Northern democrats hope their ancient
allies Of the South, who constituted the
majority in former times, may be able to bring
over the negroes to them. The old Southern
wings are earnestly at work, and are really
making some headway in some Of the States, to
get the black vote with view TO supremacy in
the South, and probably with view to sup
port the moderate republicans against the
radicals. The republicans Of both the conser-
vative and radical stamp have earnestly begun
o sort Of missionary campaign to convert the
newborn American citizens Of African descent
TO their party and views. This is all for pcliti-
cal power--the Offices and spoils In the future.
In this struggle II is not very easy to foresee
the result; FOR, Al We said, the circumstances
are novel and unprecedented. Still, looking
at all the movements referred to and at the
signs Of the times, the radicals appear to have
the best chance Of succeeding. Wendell PhiF

Gulch school, on Wednesday evening last,
was largely attended, and as the use of the
hall, the supper and the music were donated,
quite sum was realized to be devoted to the
object for which the dance was gotten up.
The hall looked very neat, indeed, trimmed
with wreaths of roses, evergreens, etc., taste
fully arranged. About nine o'clock the
band took their positions on the billiard ta-
bic. and dancing commenced. The evening
was cool, the company in the hapPiest OF hu-

supper was one of the best to which we ever

the shining ore at the rate of twenty dollars
per day to the man. Their claim extends
right across the street, and as they would
not be allowed to obstruct the highway, they
have to fill up behind them as fast as they
advance. Good pay, however, is balm
which heals every wound and overcomes all
difficulties. Messrs. Adams and Mitchell

the claim is giving good account of itself.
