RosecTans Again.


1.-THE Minister to Mexico" still carries 'this
heart in his hand" and he has not yet started
for the Halls Of the Montezumas. When last
heard from he was astonishing the natives OF
Brown county, Ohio, by his profanity and his
intensely military air. Still "flled with
solicitude," he has not recovered from his
recent epistolary attack. indispensable
duties" however, prevented him from attend
ing the conclave of "Whte" Boys in Blue
held recently in indianapolis; but his belief
that our free institutions and highest mate
rial interests are in grave peril' led him to
respond to the invitation of General John
LoVe-who is General John Love H-to be
present, "by stating what he thought the most
vital issues before the public in the approach
ing Presidential election" TIE solicitude
of General Rosecrans still centres on the
"brave, energetic, and selfsaoriacing mem
OF the South. He Is anxious that they should
be restored to "hopeful, cheerful self f-govern-
ment," such, We imagine, as prevails in the
neighborhood OF Camilla, Georgia. For fear
that our readers may be inclined to regard
this epistle as forgery, we will reproduce a
portion. The rambling, inooherent vein OF
solcitude which pervades 1t will dispel all
such doubts. Thus
''Restore them this''-"hopeful, cheerful,
wholesome seltgovernment''-"an as GER
tainly as day follows the sun our political
stability will be assured; our financial pros
perity will speedily follow; the value of pro-
perty in the South will increase; our public
securities will 60 to a premium; our green
backs will become par; coin and currency ac
counts, with all their evils and complications,
will disappear from the books OF our business
men,"
The "Minister to Mexico" then proceeds to
recount at some length the vital necessity Of
this "hopeful, cheerful, wholesome self-gov-
eminent" on the part of the South, and then
solemnly and emphatically declares that he
"holds" the man who would not express aud
act upon convictions similar to his own ga
traitor to himself and his countryp These
words have the true Democratic "White-"
Boy-in- Blue ring. Grant, Sherman, Sheridan.
Meade, Sickles, Howard-what string of in
famous traitors, to be sure Lee Beauregard,
Hampton, Forrest-what illustrious, high
minded patriots thay are Reynolds, Sum
ner, MCPHERSON, Birney-in what an unholy
canse they laid down their lives When a
soldier deserts his colors, what ranting rene
gade he becomes what stencil in the nos
trils of all honest loyal men The treason of
Benedict Arnold was not more infamous than
this.

AN OPPONENT of universal suffrage has
quoted with great emphasis the declaration
of "Junius," that "No person is entitled to a
political right till he has learned how to use
it; no man is qualified for trust till he knows
how to fulfil it," This great yelled political
prophet was high authority in his own day
and generation, but the spirit OF his dictum is
siugularly adverse to the whole theory of a
practical democracy. The United States Gov
ernment has been from its very beginning q
practical experiment, for it has undertaken to
teach the people how to govern themselves by
making them their own governors. If the
doctrine of "Junius" be correct, we have been
wrong from the initial steps, for the great men
who laid the foundation of our Government
were totally unskilled in the art The rapnb
lie was incorporated by bands of oolonists,
ignorant Of all the complex machinery Of
national organization and management, and
boldly assuming duties Of citizenship which
they had never fulfilled. Yet the world has
learned through our example that the citizen
learns his duties in performing them, as the
art of swimming is learned by striking out
boldly in the water.

CAUSE FOR RRLIEF.-The Independence Beige,
French journal which is not published in
Paris, else its very title would be mockery,
recently had the assurance to assert that the
precooious Prince Imperial had said:-"When
l become Emperor shall not allow any one to
be without religion ~ Here was grave cause
for alarm. The gay and frivolous world of
Paris was in CONSERVATION. The Prince In
perial may be called upon to exercise the
hereditary functions of sovereignty at any
day, for the health of his august parent has
long been shaky, and every now and then a
would-be assassin is detected in the overt act
of premeditating an attempt upon his life.
Politically speaking, France is anything and
everything but free; but from moral stand
point the utmost liberty prevails. 1t is true
that Napoleon III is an exemplary son of the
Church, and that France under his rule has
risen to the proud dignity of "the eldest
daughter of Rome" But the actual practice
of the faith which the nation affects to pro
fess is vastly different thing from the mere
afectatiOn of its profession. The grand
nephew OF the Emperors uncle, however,
regard. No sooner does the Imperial crown
rest upon the brow OF Napoleon w than he
issues his dictatorial edict, by which Father
Hyacinthe is to supplant Schneider, and Notre
Dame to become the centre of attractio On on
Sunday in place of the Bois de Boulogne.
Fancy the vivacious Frenchmen and the giddy
Frenchwomen giving Schneider the cold
shoulder and pouring in crowds to the pulpit
the Sunday afternoon races entirely sup
pressed, for the sake of enforcing q full
attendance at vespers in Notre Dame. Not a
very agreeable prospect for Frenchman to
contemplate. Lighter grievances have barri-
caded the streets Of Parias aud filed the fau
bourgs with wild, blood thirsty mob. But the
sagacious ruler of France fully appreciates the
danger of permitting such holy horror to
pervade the minds Of his subjects. 1t has
been by the exercise of an equal ssgacity,
under even more trying circumstances, that
he has been enabled to render the empire a
tah accompH, and to cement the foundations
OF his throne without an extravaganza OF
blood-letting. So, inspired by the geniu
which has accomplished this herculean task,
the official journal gravely announces that
no such words as alleged by the Independence
Beige ever fell from the thoughtless lips OF
the Prince Imperial, and Paris experiences q
sense Of relief as universal as ii is profound.
When Napoleon " Gscends the throne he will
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1868-09-29

the oonvenienoes Of everyday life arise from
similar unions, more intimate schemes o.
determination have not become popular. The
habits and feelings OF the people seem to be
still tinged with that pioneer instinct that
carried our fathers into the forest soltudss,
self-suficing, and independent of all social
bonds. Nothing but the deepest destitution
drives an American into sharing house with
his neighbor, and 1t is only when 1t becomes
doubtful whether he can keep roof over his
head that he submits to give up his solitary
abode.
The system of dwelling in 'hats," so long
established in Scotland, and so universal in
France, offers great advantages to persons of
moderate means; and yet the scheme seems to
have no attractions to American society,
although, as nation of travellers, we are
well acquainted with the feasibility OF the
arrangements, and are loud in our complaints
Of the burden Of high rents,
We have learned the strength that lies in
the union Of money, and We are also testing
the valae OF association in the various schemes
that assure the individual against loss by fire,
accident, etc. A union OF hearts and hands
in patriotic duty has made us great nation,
but we have yet to solve that other union for
common defense which can be made to do so
much towards assuring his daily bread to each
individual.
The unions among laborers, as they now
exist, are too often prompted by narrow
and selfish spirit of antagonism. The short
sighted bigotry that impels them to regulate
apprenticeship SO stringently as to exclude
youth and talent from their ranks, in the
blind belief that such exclusiveness will be
advantageous to themselves, may bring them
trifing profit in the present but certain
defeat in the future. Tyranny in any form
arouses revolt and causes its own downfall,
and the guild will suffer for the crime as surely
as the Gear.
1t is only in such movements that harmo-
nize the interests of labor and capital that
peace can be found, and it will be long before
mankind will be ready to freely accept this
only certain solution.

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC TRICK.-Mr. James
Nicholson does not stand the ghost OF a chance
of getting into Congress-. His friends vuufoss
this, and seek to turn it to good advantage.
Mr.. Nicholson is an Odd Fellow. So are a
great number Of Republican voters in the
Fourth District. The modus operandi is this.
An ingenious Democrat buttonholes a Re-
publican Odd Fellow, confesses that Mr..
Nicholson will be defeated, argues that he is a
good fellow as well as an Odd one, and urges
the Republican to compliment him with his
vote. 'It cannot possibly affect the result,
you know" and so on. Now, it is scarcely
possible that Judge Kelley's majority of over
24O0 in 1866 can be pulled down to less than
nothing in this fashion, but every vote thus
lost to him is lost to the great cause which he
represents; and If his majority should be
lessened by 500 in this way, the result would
be heralded by the Democracy as an evidence
of distrust on the part Of Judge Kelly's con-
stituents. The device is a neat one, and
worthy the great genius of Mr.. William A.
Wallace, with whom doubtless it originated.
1t may be that the same trick may be at
tempted in other districts, and it becomes
incumbent upon Republican voters to be on
their guard against it. Democracy and des-
peration are synonymous terms, and desps-
rate men will be guilty of desperate deeds.

WILKINS wilkins has been heard from
officially. We had begun to fear that such
would never be the case. But now there lies
before us the official report Of that portion of
Wilkins speech which SO aroused the wrath
of Lieutenant Governor Doyle that he was
obliged to inquire into its truthfulness. The
Nova Scotian Governor was needlessly
alarmed. In fact, Wilkins is so very tame
that we conclude not to publish him verba-
tim. Wilkins simply asserts that he will not
tolerate the abject condition of slavery under
the rule of the proaigate politicians of Canada.
Wilkins ancestors probably hourished in
Acadie, where profigacy is, or was, unknown.
All that Wilkins asks, is that the constitution
of Nova Scotia should be restored His solitary
wish Is to live under the sceptre of his sovereign.
But on that one point Wilkins is firmly fixed.
Therefore, he "does not fear to say that If,
within the next six months, steps have not
been taken to do us justice, the people will no
longer submit, but will be forced to do away
with the injustice of which it complains, and
to reconquer the constitution which it holds
DEAR While Wilkins is not 80 fierce by
half as we expected to find him, he is far from
being calm, and it is barely possible that there
is trouble brewing for those who do not,
within the next six months, fall into his way
of thinking. When man becomes infatuated
with 'the Constitution as it was, there is no
such thing as foretelling the desperate deeds
that he may dare and do. Witness the me-
lancholy case of Andrew Johnson, right at our
doors. II wilkins is destined to be the John
son of Nova Scotia, we are moved to sorrow
both for the country and the man.
