which they wish to carry. Suppose that they
should happen to fail in complying with con-
tract for carrying the mails, might they not
with equal reason claim exemption from penal
ties because they are foreign corporations?
The libel was dismissed in the case Of the
steamships simply on the ground that the law
requiring certain allotted spaces for accommo-
dations of passengers on emigrant vessels does
not apply to vessels " propelled in whole or ia
part by steam" This being mere technical
objection, MI. Courtney, the United States Dis
trict Attorney, intends to reopen the whole
case on appeal to the Circuit Court.
Congress should hasten to remedy the defect
which has thus been discovered in the Passen-
ger law. And we must add that il is igh time
both Congress and the American people should
realize the Importance Of encouraging by CAPT
tai, by government subsidies whenever requi-
site, and by all other suitable means, the es-
tablishment of great American steamship lines
both for the mail service and for the Transport
tation OF cmigrants. As things are going on at

our coastng trade would ere long be carried

lutely necessary to guard against a threatened

Highly Important Proceedings in Both
Houses of Congress Yesterday.
The conflict between Congress and the Pres
ident is coming to close quarters In the
House OF Representatives yesterday, under
the pressure of the previous question, bill
was passed providing that hereafter, instead Of
majority, concurrence Of two-thirds of the
members of the Supreme Court of the United
States shall be NECESSARY to declare the uncon-
sttutionality of any law of Congress. As the
Court is now constituted it is morally certain
that under the majority rule the existing recon-
struction laws, if brought before the Court,
would be quashed by vote of perhaps five to
three. II is also pretty well understood that
upon several incidental cases the question
of the constiutlonality of these recon
struction laws will shortly come before
the Court for its decision. This two-thirds
rule, therefore, is iniclposed to save the
radical policy from shpwreck, and
from this decisive vote of the House the bill
will doubtless become law, the Presidents
objections TO the contrary Notwithstanding.
Congress has the power, and the radicals, with
a two-thirds vote in each House, Will surely
not stop in a matter where they have the
authority of the cons Tuition, Wien they do not
hesitate to legislate outside the constitution to
gain their ends.
This Supreme Court bill, therefore, means
that the Southern negro supremacy programme
of Congress is to be pushed through at oil
hazards, and under the new consolidation re-
construction bill introduced in the House yes
terday, with the understanding that it is 10 be
passed to-day With the Psesiden! held SUBJ
ject to the viii of an overwhelming radical
Congress, with the Supreme Cour. reduced to
q nullity, and with General Grant pressed into
their service, the radicals intend 10 fight out
their battle. So much for Tho proceedings Of
yesterday in the House of Il representatives.
In the Senate there was a concurrent de-
cision in the matter of Stanton's suspension as
Secretary of War. BY the decisive vote of
thirty-five to six the Senate, in executive ses:
sion, after debate of five hours, declared that
the reasons given by the President tor Stan
toms suspension are not sufficient, and that
the Senate, therefore, do not concur in this sus-
pension Of Secretary Stanton. BY this vote,
according to the Tenure oil Office law, he is
reinstated in the War Department, and we
await with some interest the next move in this
matter. II depends upon Stanton but be
viii probably not attempt to enforce his clam
until covered by the shield Of this bill relating
to the Supreme Court
From these movements in Congress and
others foreshadowed, and from all the signs of
the times, we may, we think, safely hazard the
opinion that we are on the threshold OF the
most momentous events in tie history of the
United States.

The Now Reconstruction Programme.

The last radical Reconstruction law would
make General Grant absolutely supreme in ten
States of the Union-give into his hands an
empire richer than the whole Roman world was
under Caesar 1t would practically establish
Casarism as the result OF q political strife
waged nominally in the interest Of popular
rights Ralicalism has kept the game OF recon
struction open since the end Of the war, has
prevented settlement, thrown away oil chance
for peace TO secure, as it has constantly de-
clared the equal rights Of all the people-to
secure governments republican in form
throughout the South and now il comes at last
to propose absolute despoii m and q one man
power. Here are republicansm and popular
rights Of tho real Down Il ISL stamp. But what
is the meaning Of this? Il is the effort Of that
party to shift its terrible burden OF respon-
sibility to other shoulders. 1t would throw
on Grant the load it can no longer bear.
Then, il all comes out well, the radicals expect
to claim the honor, while, if all goes wrong, they
will point to Grant as the cause of ruin. But
this game should be cut short in lis very IN
ception, and the President should take steps,
if this bill becomes law, to do what should
long since have been done with regard to the
other Reconstruction law. He should have a
case made to obtain the decision Of the SUI
preme Court Laws made by the proper law
making power must be accepted and acted
upon until the Suprem, Court has declared
that their unconstitutional character renders
them null but when the unconstitutionalisy Of
law is so bold, SO broad, so defiantly dis
tinct as to be obvious to oil, there can be no
excuse for delay in obtaining that formal
declaration of the court that will justify the
President in refusing to execute the law.

GENERAL GRANT AND THE RADICAIs.-Hlstory
has TO large extent justified the state
ment that the tendency of republican in
stitutons is towards absolute monarchy. It
was 50 in Greece, in Rome, in the Italian
republics, in England, and more lately In
France. 1t is all very well to say that such
tendency 10 neither natural nor necessary; but
facts are stubborn things, and in their inllu-
ence more potent than theories. Are we in
the United States about to furnish another
example? The events of the hour certainly
point in that direction. The radical repubIi-
cans, once the hope of the country, are no
longer patriotic. The love of party, II is now
manifest, has extnguished the love Of country.
Come what may OF the country, the radicals
must rule--such is their policy. Like GER
tain illustrious parsonage, they think it
"better to reign in hell than serve III heayen.n
Anarchy or a dictator--that is the future they
are preparing for the country. OF the two we
certainly prefer the dictator, and General
Grant as iaperator might be relief from
greater ills.

The NATIONAL CTY BANK DEFAIcATroS.--
Another serious bank defalgation has been
brought TO light. II IS the oil, old story
imperfect and careless management. In one
OF our most respectable city banks teller
is able for pfotractod period to do al
he pleases with the moneys entrusted to
The safekeeping OF the bank authorities
All at once he is found dct.uller to The
amount of three hundred and fifty thousand
dollars This, certainly, is fair sum for o
teller to emDezzle. Comparatively, however,
the sum is triae. The system of manage
ment under which such wholesale plumber is
possible is the real evil Of which we have to
complain. Under such management we have
no guarantee that the thousands of to-day will
not become millions tomorrow. II on teller
has such power, so has another. Evidently
the bank managers are not doing their duty.
In view OF such disclosure as this Of the
National City Bank il is poor consolation to
the public TO DO told that in consequence of
the large surplus on hand the deposiors will
not suffer-
