The press was q queer institution in the

respectable subscription lists and its advertise
ments in by the year. In the innumerable
changes that the whirligig of time has brought
us none is more remarkable than that in virtue
of which the press of to-day is 80 utterly diff
ferent from that of thirty years ago. tits the

the accidents of wind and tide; the postboy

contrast
In the HERALD how truly the press is
''map of busy life," how accurately the very
character of the time appears, and with what
fidelity is the spirit, the energy, the pro-
gress of the time shown! There are no ad-
vertisements that stupidity stare the public in
the face with their year long monotony but
these changing columns are the minute
chronicle Of what occurs day by day, even as
much news as the newspaper. They are the
local items of highest value, Of most imme-
date import to the citizen. These columns

stitutional landmarks between the two depart
ments; but in reducing the President to mere
signer of the bills of Congress and administra-
tor OF the laws it reduces the conflict for the
policy Of the Presidential succession to battle
for the next Congress.
What is the prospect under this shaping of
the contesta First, General Grant has the in
side track for the Presidency, and the chances
of the election are in his favor. Chief Justice
Chase, however, if brought out in opposition to
him by all the opposition elements on a liberal
conservative Union platform, under s'the con-
stitution as it is" and not az It was before the
war, may spoil the radical calculations resting
upon General Grants popularity. In any
event, in the face of this declaration
Of General Grants policy of submission
to Congress, it becomes the duty of
the opposition to head off the radicals
as far as possible in the elections for the next
Congress The Senate, we conclude, for at
least two years to come, cannot be revolution
lied. 1t is too strongly radical for that, and
with the admission of the reconstructed South
ern States it will be still more strongly radical.
The House Of Representatives, however, and
its more than two-thirds radical vote may be
changed, and largely, by the assistance of the
Southern States, if restored. The members
from those States admitted with their restora-
ton in the interval to the 4th of March next
will only hold good to that day, when the term
of this Congress expires. For the next Con-
gress new elections must be held, and with Mr..
Chase as the opposition Union Presidential can
didate the Southern negro vote may be so far
changed as to swamp the radicals from Rich
mond to New Orleans.
General Grants position, we say, makes it a
matter Of vital Importance to the opposition to
secure the next House of Representatives
and inasmuch as Chief Justice Chase, If made
the united opposition Presidential candidate,
would in all probability secure majority of
Southern members with the aid of the negro
vote, the standard bearer and the plan of
operations for success against the radicals
we think are clearly indicated.

Our Fashion Corr..pona.,..

Our usual weekly RESUME of the par;.
fashions will be found in another part of
the paper. This, of course, will be particu-
larly interesting to our lady readers, az
we intend it to be. They will be able Ia
compare home fashions with those of Paris.
though it is evident our New York bellies ara
yet very much the slaves of Partisan milliners
and leaders of tom. The most striking novelty
of the season, as will be seen, is the pannier-
that is, steel basket-which is worn over each
hip, and which, as described by our graphic
Paris correspondent, is 'exactly like the
wicker receptacles in which buffers carefully
carry old Port or Chambertin up to table.
Between these there bulges out a hump far
behind, and this is only the under-foundation
for puffy silk contrivances above With such
compact affair as this on the trunk trade
will fall, as every possible convenience for
travelling can be safely deposited within the
hip baskets" The most prodigious one Of
these panniers that had made its appearance
in Paris was called Imperatrfce. The
wearers of these panniers in the public
streets get well stared at of course,
and we are told often take to .fdcres
suddenly to escape the scrutinizing and
comical gaze. Imagine one of our young and
full blown New York bellies walking along with
the approved Grecian bend, the fashionable
high-heeled CATERS and pannier Imperatrice
projecting behind Would it not be remark
able figure - very striking and peculiar
make up? We fear it would be very trying to
nerves of fathers, brothers and husbands, at
least for time, till custom gave assurance Of
safety. There would be constant apprehen-
sion that the dainty feet might be tripped up
and that the delicate creatures might loose
their balance. High-heeled CATERS, the Gre
clan bend and huge pannier behind, taken
altogether, would certainly look perilous, if not
really 80. We would not be surprised to see
the immense high bonnets worn some years
ago revived with this fashionable make up, and
should that be the case it would certainly be
most difficult to preserve the equilibrium.
However, this is wonderful age, and we need
not be astonished at the most startling novel;
ties in fashion.

union should not be attempted on much larger
scale than has yet been deemed practicable.
Unfortunately, however, bigotry, selhshness
and the worst kind of intolerance still find a
place in the so-called courts of the Church OF
Christ So long as we find church courts SOL
emnly suspending brother from church privi-
leges for no other offence than singing the
praises of God in other language than the
versiied Psalms Of David, by such courts ap-
proved, so long must general union, on a
broad and hopeful basis, be deemed impracti-
cable. Union is nevertheless an object to be
aimed at; for disunion is still the vice of
Professionalism and the source of Protestant
weakness.
Altogether the condition of the American
churches is hopeful and encouraging. Con-
sidering the number of the churches, the
talent, the learning, the wealth and the activity
which they represent, and bearing in mind
that in this country there is nothing to fear
from the frown or to hope from the favor of
rulers, we have as people every cause to be
proud of the Christian religion as it is seen in
the midst of us, and every reason to look for
ward with hope and confidence to the influence
which it is yet destined to exert on all the
nations Of the earth.

Russian Triumph In Central Asia-The City
Of Bokhara Captured and the Khan
Killed.
kilograms from Central Asia forwarded by
way of British India, Egypt, Malta and Lon
don, and thence through the Atlantic cable to
the HERALD, announce the highly important
intelligence that the Russian military advance
in Central Asia, conducted with great skill and
wonderful persistency and endurance during the
past two years, has eliminated in the
capture of the city of Bokhara-the town
of Alexander the Great, of Jenghis- khan
and Timour-by the troops of the Czar, after a
bloody battle in which the Khan was killed
The possession of this, the richest city of Cen
trail Asia, with its three hundred and sixty
mosques its commerce with Persia, Turkey,
Tartary, China and India, its famous seat
of Mohammedan learning and the dwelling of
the chief of Islamism in that portion of the
world, makes ample reward for the courage
and patience with which General Romanoffsky
conducted the soldiers of the White Tsar-as
the Emperor of Russia is called in the terri
tory, to distinguish him from the Black Tsar,
the Emperor of China-away from the borders
of Chinese Turkestan, on both banks of the
Jaxartes, to his grand objective point Bokhara
The campaign in this direction constitutes a
great event in the war history of the day.
Moving forward under an almost intolerable
heat the Russians fought and won the great
battles Of Irdjar, Samarcand, Khodjent and
Tachkend, the Cossack cavalry meeting the
horsemen of Bokhara on their own ground and
defeating them, while their artillery and
infantry were an overmatch for the great guns
and troops the Emir, even when the sovereign
of Bokhara commanded in person.
Holding Bokhara Russia establishes her
power-political military and Christian-in
the whole country north of the Jaxartes from
the Celestial Mountains" to Lake Aral and
the City of Tamerlane, and thus premonishes
Europe that she is likely to become the future
arbiter of the Asiatic question, not only in the
central governmental, but in Hindostan.
This victory at Bokhara will enable the Gear
to control the northwestern frontier of India
towards Afghanistan. Notwithstanding the fact
that, by means of the recent native battle at
Guriskh, Shere Ali Khan, the deposed ally of
England, had been restored to the throne in
Kandahar, Mr.. Disraeli claimed some short
time since that Britain was more an Asiatic
than an European power; and the news from
Bokhara, which we publish to-day, indicates
pretty plainly that if she wishes to retain her
new position she can scarcely embark in any
more wars in the Crimea, or on the line of the
Danube, in support of Turkey

THE CARPET BAGGERs CONE TO TowN.-The
crowds around the HERALD Office and along
Broadway were thrown into a state of wonder
ment yesterday by an army of carpet-baggers
marching along with bands of music, blowing
of trumpets and great excitement generally.
Everybody wondered what all these men,
marching in file and carrying carpet bags In
their hands, we're after, where they came from
and what 1t all meant. The old nursery song
came fresh to every ones mind
Hark, bark, the dogs do bark;
The beggars tbaggers are coming to town.
And it was generally believed that this was an
exodus of the hosts of radical carpet-baggers
from Washington on their way home to Yankee
land in consequence Of the impeachment fzzle.
Looking at the number, this was reasonable
suppositon. At least IL was novel and
curious scene, even to the Gothamites.

Popularizing the Fine Arts.

We were glad to see that Mr. Huntington.
the President of the National Academy Of
Design, and several other eminent artists.
encouraged by their presence on Thursday
evening the praiseworthy efforts which the
directors and professors of the School Of
Design at the Cooper Institute have made to
popularize art. How successful these efforts
have proved was happily manifested at the
annual reception of which we yesterday gave
full account. Several of the paintings and
drawings and particularly the pieces Of
sculpture exhibited by both the male and the
female pupils of the school, attested the
same promising talent in these lines Of
art of which, in music, the recent triumphs
of American cantatr1ces in Europe have
given such gratifying proof. We believe
that by Madame Caves method, or by any
method of similar practicability, it would be
as easy to make drawing an almost universal
accomplishment as writing has become. Tho
effect Of systematic instruction in drawing in
all our public schools would be the develop
ment of the latent artistic talent which un-
doubtedly exists in this country, the opening
of new, delightful and profitable fields of in
dustry in the widening sphere of womans
labor and the general elevation of the standard
Of taste among our people. The popular
interest in art which has already been awakened
was most satisfactorily evinced by the three
thousand visitors of all classes in our metro
politan society who thronged the galleries Of
the Cooper Institute on Thursday evening.
