In constrasting the condition Of the
Indian race with that of the African, the
speaker said that one great reason why
the Indians have melted away viii b.
found in the fact that they do not love
work, while the African chooses to labor
rather than lie idle, and work is the first
condition of civilization, its very life, and
the only way that it can thrive and be
perpetual. And it is this capability OF
work that makes the future SO bright for
this race. AS the star of empire passing
from east to west, throws down its beam
of glory upon great country washed by
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans-shall not

DEATH OF REV. DIR. PARKS We
regret to learn of the death of Rev. Isaac
Parks, DID, of Whitehall, n. y, presid-
ing Elder of the Poultney District of the
Troy Conference He was stricken down
few days since by a stroke of Paralysis.
DIR. Parks was a prominent man in his
denomination, an eloquent preacher and
a diligent worker. He has been for
several years one of the Board of Regents
of the University of New York, body
resembling our Board of Education, com
posed of some of the best scholars and
ablest men of that State. He was also
one of the School Commissioners of
Washington County. Rev. Joseph h.
King, DID, of Fort Edward, announced
his death, yesterday, in the Troy Confer
ence, now in session at West Troy, n y,
and of which he was member, although
he had not been in attendance. After a
few remarks by the clergymen best ac-
quainted with him, Bishop Knights called
on Rev. Jesse I. Peck, DID, of Albany,
to lead the conference in prayer, which
he did after giving out the hymn
Servant of God, well done" A delega-
ton of eight clergymen were appointed
to attend his funeral on Saturday next
We believe he was native of Whitehall
and was well known as a preacher in
Western Vermont.

The mischief-makers who have been so anx
ious to have us believe that Gen. Grant felt
his hands tied by the Tenure-of Office act, and
could make no nominations, save for vacancies,
till it should be repealed will probably be
silenced by to-day's dispatches. Gen. Grants
first response to the Senate triumph over the
House in retaining the essential principle OF
the Tenure of Office bill is the prompt nOmi-
nation of one hundred and fifty-nine gentlemen
in single day for Internal Revenue Collectors
and Assessors, U. S. Marshals, District-Attor-
neys Collectors and Surveyors of Customs,
and others of the most important offices. In
other columns we print the long lists of names,
with such news as is sent us from Washington
concerning the reception of the announcements.
Those which will attract most attention here
are the selection of Judge ierrepoint-ceItainly
a lawyer whose high professional position
makes him amply worthy of the pOst-for the
place of District Attorney instead of Mr.. Court
ney; the transfer of Collector Bailey and AS
SCISSOR Cleveland, (the only Internal Revenue
officers in this city who have yet
been reappOinted), from the positions in which
they have won the confidence of the Govern
ment to the most important Revenue District
cludes Wall and Broad SITS. the choice of Mr..
WadswOrth for United States Marshal, and of
Mr.. Darling and Gen. Pleasonton for Col
lectOrs. Beside these, we lhave such note
worthy nominations as those of Blanc F. Jou-
bert, an educated and wealthy negro iOf New
Orleans, for Collector in the Ist Louisiana
District; Henry c.. Deming of Connecticut for
Collector in the LIST Connecticut District
Thomas II. Foulds for Postmaster in
Cincinnati and Z. 0. Goodrich for Sur
veyor of Customs In Philadelphia
OF course these lists will be saluted with
howl from the disappointed. Every nomina-
tion is sure of pleasing one candidate and
displeasing twenty; and the twenty are
very likely to make, among them,
the most noise. Such has been
the uniform experience of every President, and
it would be miraculous if Gen. Grant should
escape it. But he must be encouraged by the
remembrance that the complaints of the office
seeking, hOrdes in Washington are no reflex of
the popular judgment, which, in the long run,
is sure to be based upon the capacity honesty,
and fidelity of the men appointed. If the
President fails there he fails in everything.
If he succeeds there, the grOans of the wounded
die out unheard .HD E/f..

Marshal Serrano, on Thursday, Informed the
Cortes that elections in Cuba would immedi-
ately be ordered, and that Cuban deputies
might be expected in Madrid at an early day.
They may not be as well informed in Madrid
about Cuban affairs as we are in the United
States, but Marshal Serrano himself cannot but
know that in fully ene-half Of the Cuban ter
ritory no election can be held, because it Is
under the control of Cubans, who prefer bullets
to ballots. and in the other half the Cubans
will be little disposed to take part in an cleo

the Republican party, and gave all the infd-
ence of his illustrous name toward the fullest
and most perfect restoration of the Union. vi
all the Rebel commanders, Gen. LonGstreet Is
the most unpopular with the Rebels of the
South. His unpopularity, however, is only for
day; in another generation it will be seen
how truly wise and great he has been. .a
Now, what shall we do with such man 7
Senator Cameron thinks we owe him punish
ment, isolation, vengeance. President Grant
believes that by appointing him to an office in
New Orleans, he gives the best pledge to the
true men Of the South that he means to deal
generously by them, and welcome them back
into the Union. Senator Cameron's policy
is simply that of passion. President Grants
is the highest craftsmanship, and Wis
dom. The men who fought with Gen.
Longstreet are our brothers in many respects,
our kinsmen, our fellow-citizens, the men upon
whom we must depend in future war. the
leaders of many large communities IN the
South. who are, for veal or woe, to be our
fellow citizens, under the protection OF our
flag, and to undergo all the duties of citizenship
If we follow the policy of Gen. Cameron
we only isolate this large community
and say to the Southern people: "The crime OF
rebellion is an objectionable sin, yOulive with
Gus but you are not of us you are aliens, and
"you have life itself only by mistaken mercy"
The President says "The past is buried with the
"past in war we showed vengeance, in peace we
"show magnanimity. Now, if you will come
'"back to us in good faith, we welcome you as
"our brothers and our fellow-citizens."
This is a small office. We presume, so
far as the mere gathering of the customs is
concerned, Gen. Longstreet is better
man than nine-tenths of the people of New
Orleans who will be acceptable to Gov. Brown
low and Gen. Cameron. He will do his duty;
he will serve the country, and no public inter-
est will be injured by his holding this
office. That is the practical consideration.
higher thought is, that by the confirmation
of Gen. Longstreet nothing remains OF the
past rebellion but bitter memory. The duty
of the present is peace and loyalty. If you
intend to keep the dark memories alive you
will invoke the vengeance of the Govern
ment; if you mean to forget the past and
accept the responsibility of the present,
assisting the restoration of the Union,
and giving to the Constitution and the laws
a sincere and earnest support, then you are
our fellows in citizenship, and share with us
the blessings of the Union. Senator Cameron
can do no wiser thing than use his great in
fluence in impressing this lesson upon the South.
1t is a short sighted policy which would rebuke
President Grant for nominating Gen. Long
street to an Office. We can hardly think that
the Senate will refuse to confirm this selection.
and our only regret is that it has not been
done as promptly and cordially as the nomna-
ton was made.
