FdPPdGUT'S TOYAGF.

The extraordinary hOnOrs paid the American
Admiral in nearly every country OF Europe
were not only personal compliments, prompted
by tho brilliancy of his exploits, but testimo-
Mos at the same time of the respect with which
our position among nations is regarded by the
neonle of the Old World. The events of the
last seven years have proved the United States
tn he not merely great industrial nation, but
a formidable military power and have brought
more closely TO the attention of foreign gov
ernments the possible influence of America in
the settlement of those great national problems
upon which the eyes of Europe are so anxiously
fixed. We have shown how powerfully physi-
cal and intellectual growth are stimulated by
free institutions; how thoroughly compatible
is political liberty with national strength;
how capable is republican organization
of resisting attack from without ana re-
bellion within; and how the happiness
and general welfare of the individual citizen
increase in even pace with the national I'M
portance. At this moment when the popula-
tons of Europe are agitated with preparations
for great political changes, the example OF
America acquires n particular significance.
The friendship of America is now something
worth striving for. American ideas and Amer
lean principles are gradually permeatng the
middle and working classes of society, who, as
they feel their power IN the state expand, look
eagerly toward that country where the people
are supreme. and where their rule has accom-
plished such magnificent results. In England,
where constitutional changes are now most
imminent, this feeling is so strong that no adj
minisration could keep in Office which did
not pursue toward this country just and
friendly policy.
Admiral Farmgut is a distinguished represent
alive of the genius of our peoplc-one of the
best of the men who have raised the United
States to their present position and 1t was
natural that he should be greeted with cnthusi-
asm 10y the masses abroad and with respect by
their rulers And in addition TO this his per
sonal character has everywhere obtaneda gen
erous appreciation. With much of the ira
ditional heroism of the sturdy sca-kmgs he
combines the modesty and quiet dignity of the
true gentleman. lie has shown that re-
publicans are not always toadies when
they go abroad, and that our real represent
alive men arc not those who degrade
themselves by embracing the enemies
Of their country for the sake of making a
pleasant impression. While our minister at
| London is winning the hearty dislike of his
countrymen and calling forth the rebukes of
| Enelishmcn themselves 10y his junkctings with
the only foreigners whom he ought particu-
] larly to avoid, it is gratifying to feel not only
that the dignity of the nation has been upheld
so worthily by gallant American gentleman,
! but also that it is to him and not to Mr.. Rev
cldy Johnson that Europe will turn for a sam
pie of our public men and IN exhibition OF the
spirit of the nation.

AS soon as the election was over we pre-
dicted that the reign of blood and terror at
the South would be checked. 1.-THE chief aris-
tOcrats," we wrote will quietly hint to the
"ruiiians that they must stop, and the hint
"will be taken" The truth of our prediction
is already beginning to be seen. The World
has given the hint. 1t berates n prominent
Southern journal for displaying Incorporate
"bravado," and issuing innammatory appeah.r
and urges that " tho Radicals must be deprived
" of pretexts for representing the Southern ;,en.
"ple as mutinOus." Herein we commend orr
contemporary for a good sense to which its col
umns are strangers indeed Take away all
"pretext for representing the Southern people
" as mutinOusp and we ask no more We are
no advocates for oppression; VIC would not
have military rule continue in any State one
day longer than it may he necessary TO keen
order and enforce the laws. That the South
ern States were not all restored long ago TO
their normal functions in the Federal Govern
ment is no fault of the Republican party.
They have been kept out by their own blind
ness and bad temper, and the treachery
of a renegade President Evil counsels
drove them to the brink of another bloody
rebellion. The victory of the party of Peace
in the Presidential election saved them from
that fate, and their prosperity is now in their
own hands We ask nothing but peace and
just dealing, and if the South will give us that
it will have no cause to complain of the mod
crate, lenient and upright policy of the new
Administration and the.party which elected it to
power. The kind and just temper with which
The World credits the more " moderate" Radi-
Gals is not the peculiarly of any particular
section of our party, but it has animated an
overwhelming majority Of the Republicans all
through the contest which has now. We hope,

Mr. John Stuart Mill has shown in a recent
letter to the electors of Westminster that he
fully cOmprehends the change which is now
working in the British constitution, and is
moreover prepared heartily to accept it. "Tho
change which has been made in the consti-
tuition of Parliament" he says, "will be
comparative failure, unless the opinions and
" feelings of the working class are represented
" in it - and he regrets that the representa-
tives Of those feelings and opinions in the
next Parliament will be far fewer than they
ought to be. He might have said with truth
that unless the working classes were adequately
represented, electoral reform in England would
be total rather than comparative fail
urc. The very basis of the reform doctrine
is that the country should be ruled by It's poo
pie, not by It's money; and though the next
Parliament wall but impcrfectly carry ont that
doctrine, the beginning once made there Is no
power in England to prevent its full develop
ment. The less complete the representation OF
the people in this Parliament, the sooner will
the Parliament come to an end; and the time
cannot be far distant when the House OF Com
mons will embrace the representatives IN equal

The Gar has begun in earnest his commend
able efforts to mitigate the horrors of war, and
the international Commission appointed at
his instance to devise rules by which armies
can kill each other as humanely as possible is
now in session at st. Petersburg. Ii seems TO
us quite practicable for such commission to
do excellent service to mankind, not only in
preventing the use of unnecessarily cruel
weapons, such as the explosive bullet, but in
throwing additional safeguards around non
combatants who are exposed to the pathway
of war; and regulating the treatment of pris-
ouers, 1t is a strange fact that a nation which
was yesterday a horde of barbarians should
have already achieved one of the most humane
works of this century--the abolition of sertdom
and should now he leading the older ciyiliza-
ton OF Europe in another.
