against all the laws of Congress and the es-

system bearing the slightest resemblance to
the old, exploded system of Chattel-Slavery,
thens it is our duty to stop it in the very be-

nothing more warmly at heart than the pros

been unable to see that anything desirable is
to be secured by attempting to limit the sup

Though sixteen hundred insurgents have sur
rendered to one of the Spanish Generals, ac-
cordng to a Madrid story, we nevertheless at
tach importance to the news that the insurrec-
ton in Spain is formidable and spreading.
The Spaniards are weak against contagi0n, and
with Il revolutionary republican spirit once
aroused, there is the old trouble aggravated of
having the blood up of a people used to bull
fights and pronunciamentos. The Spanish
naturally resemble a nation of whom it was
humorously but somewhat unjustly said that
they were never at peace but when
fighting, and were always fighting for peace.
That this is exactly what they are strug-
Cling for, and suffering for, we do not doubt ;
but it would be unsafe to predict that their
struggles for ideas will in itself operate to
bring peace to them. Crimes in the name Of
liberty have to be expiated as well as others
What brings this truth to mind is the recent
assassination of the Deputy Governor of Tara
gOna. For no greater Offense than remOnstrat-
ing with Gen. Bias Pierrad, noted Republic
can leader, for the sedtious character OF
procession of which he was the hero and one OF
the banners of which contained the motto of
the Federal Republic, the luckless Governor
was set upon by devils. "They buffeted him,
stabbed him, threw him on the ground, and
then tramped on him like savages," says the
present Governor of Tarragona, and to cap
their atrOcity they tied his legs with rope
and then he was dragged along by loose and
excited women and ragged boys" Alas for

the following statement, which may be i'm

Father Hyacnthe comes to America, which is
to say that he has not yielded to the very affec-
tionate appeal made to him by Bishop Dupan-
loup of Orleans to return to the Mother Church.
There is no more estimable prelate in the
Catholic Church than this Bishop, and his let
ter to the dissident monk may have been a
somewhat moving, as it certainly is, in few
words, an eloquent plea to one on whom the
influences Of his church are doubtless still
strong. The Bishop admits that the great Car
molite has suffered; so too did LacOrdaire and
others without mutiny; and. while deelar-
ing an interchangeable love for the soul
of his brother, seems to think that
he has committed the gravest spiritual sin
against humility and obedience. The letter is
as good an expression as we can have of the
best feeling on the side of those who support
he Church in absolute faith, hold that its errors
of administration are but trials of that faith,
and believe the inspiration of its unity.
Father Hyacinthe is, in effect, bold assailant
of its unity, and, deeming his own religious
belief attacked by certain malpractices Of
which we have as yet no precise state
mept. condemns the council of Rome
in anticipation without waiting to find out
whether In his opinion its verdict is inspired
or not. He at once doubts the infallibility Of
the. Church Congress, and hence will be ac-
counted no Catholic at Rome. 1t is to be seen
whether his course will drift him into irreyo-
cable Professionalism, or whether, still holding
as he does that he is Catholic. he win return
TO the Church. In coming to America he exposes
himself to peculiar temptations and trials, If
his career is to be a public one. He may create
spiritual unrest in these quarters as regards
church administration in the Old World, and

Whether the CoOle system of labor is good
or a bad one, nothing can be gained by mis-
representing it. Mr.. T.. NJ. Chamberlain, who
is not workingman lin the usual sense of
the world, but who is called the Workingmans
candidate for Governor Of Massachusetts, says,
in his letter accepting the nomination; "The
"Coole system is mild form of Slavery, and
whether men are bound for five years or for
" life, the influence upon other labor must
"alke he evil" A man who, like Gen. Cham
berlain, undertakes to instruct others, and who
aspires to high executive position in govern
ment, should know that the CoOlie system, in
theory at least, is not "a mild form OF Slavery"
nor any form of Slavery at all. The slave re-
ceived no wages; he was incapable of main
tanning an action against his masters he could
make no legal contract with his employer (;
there could be no termination Of his service ex-
cept by his death; ho could not legally marry;

NAPOLEON'S MALADY.

With that "entente cordiale" which should
exist between men of autocratic leanings, the
Car has invited the Emperor to an exhibition
at ST. Petersburg. Coming from one who has
been of late martyr to bad form of head
ache to one who is only recovered from what
was supposed to be dangerous rheumatism,
this invitation awakens curious reflection
The latter will attend if health and politics
permit, which we take to be a prudent reserva-
ton, If they do not an exhibition is likely to
come off in Paris of more moment than any
which will soon be held in st. Petersburg.
But we have Just at hand statement which
gives pause to anything less than the most
serious consideration of the malady under
which the French Emperor labors. The wearer
of q crown, the bearer of a scepter, and gifted
with great intellect and fortune, only the vic
tim at the stake may have had more trying
torture on the whole than this royal sufferer.
For the first time in America, and from cor
respondent whose knowledge is authoritative,
we have information of the exact nature OF
the Emperor's sickness. In hardly its worst
manifestation it is an inherited woe,
difficult to describe in few words, but
more painful than rheumatism, and more
calculated to excite commiseration for down
right suffering, which, even In men OF
Napoleonic temper, is to be pitied. From
before the date of the coup dttdt till now the
Emperor has wrestled with, let us say rather
endured, q malady the effect of which may
bring him at any moment to the. door OF
death. The moral of the Emperors affection is
easy to infer. Without asking whether France
has suffered at all in being ruled by morbid
emperor, it is enough to reflect that to NapO-
leon has come the fate of pain which falls with
more honor upon martyrs and patriots. which
has come to thousands whom his dread uncle
sent to slaughter, and which descends upon the
yilest of the vile and the poorest of the poor.
1t is the common fate, the fate of the Prone
thean man, whether he be bog-trotter or
Car; and His Majesty has had both
the acute and the chronic attack of II. 1t
comes to the hero of q coup d<tat with even
greater severity than to the hero of barri-
cade. The Titan groans and the gods seem
not to Pity but for the Emperor, not less than
the best of us, there are consultations. He
could not die, he once remarked, after having
been threatened by an assassin, until his mis-
sion was ended. Perhaps the royal predes-
tinarian has come to think that the mortal
task is finished of which an American poet
better said
Until my work ia done cannot die.
And then I wonld not live"

and on Prescription and Caste at the North.
1t will have to take decided and unequivocal
position in preparing for the next Presidential
contest ; and that must be one which does not
divest it Of hope of carrying a single State
south of tile Potomac. The line of battle OF
the advocates of "a White Mans Government
is thus fatally broken, and their total discom-
fitgre merely q question of time. 1t behooves
us to take care that New-York be not taught
her duty to the humble and despised by South
Carolina, but that she resume her proper place
in the van of the mighty host that strikes for
Justice, Progress, and Universal Liberty.
While Slavery endured, the prescription OF
the Blacks rested on perfectly ineligible
and logical foundation. 1t was deemed fit that
the men who voted should be palpably dis
tinguished from the men who were sold Mt
auction The reason having vanished, the
prescription remains only as tree cut OIL and
stuck in the ground may serve as party
standard or rallying-post long after Its vitality
has departed; but all know that its days are
numbered, and that it must soon fall Oh Its
own weight if not quietly taken down, which
is safest and best. All intelligent Democrats
know and in conversation admit that ours must
inevitably become land of Equal Rights and
Equal Laws; but the party managers say to
each other, we can carry two or three more
elections--or, at least this one-by crying
"down the Blacks the future must take care
"of itself" And thus a great wrong is per-
sisted in, through the selfish arts and calcua-
lions of men who profoundly despise the prelu-
dice whereby they nevertheless lseek and hope
to profit. They do this in the conviction that
many voters who are no baser are great deal
more ignorant and stupid than themselves
In the confident trust that the canvass on
which we are now entering will be signalized
by determined though quiet effort on the part
of the friends of Gen. Grants wise, prudent
and patriotic Administration, and that its result
will shame the laggards and faint-hearts who
are never ready to put forth efforts except
when they are not needed, remain, yours,
gratefully, HORACE GREELEY.

We have often had occasion to speak in
these columns of a Western sect calling itself
"The Cumberland Presbyterian Church," but
we confess, apart from the fact that some Of
its preachers owned and sold and bought ne
groes, we have never exactly understood what
was the purport and upshot Of Cumberland
Presbyterianism Now, a newspaper OF the
faith informs us that ait is glorious medium
between byper-Calvinism and Armenianism."
We do not know that we exactly comprehend
this, but we know IN medic tutiSsimus to be o
maxim which has met with the approval of the
wise in all ages. To speak more particularly,
we understand that the Cumberland Presby-
terians reject the doctrines of predestination
and foreordination, and do not believe the
number of the saved and the damned to have
been irrevocably fixed from the beginning.
Upon the old question whether the price of
negroes sold at auction may be legitimately
received into the treasury of the Cumberland
Presbyterian Church, the statement before us
throws no light

The Chicago Tribune, i'll about the strongest
article which we have yet seen in favor of re-
moving the Capital to the West, puts forward
| two reasons, viz:
/. The difficulty and cost of defending Wash

rebellion.
Q. "The decentralization arising to legislation

of the first of these reasons it may be OBJ
served that removal upon such grounds would
| be humiliating acknowledgment of national
weakness. Washington, undoubtedly, under
most circumstances, might be easily and eco
nomically defended. The invasion in 1912 and
| the Rebellion were exceptional cases. At any
rate, we hardly like the idea of carrying our
| seat of legislation away out West to save II
| from destruction.
OF the second reason, we may say the

while bitterly tregretting the decentralization al
Washington, we think it encouraging that in
| consequence of the smallness OF the city the
wickedness is often overt. Sooner or later we
find it out These arguments are certainly not
conclusive and we give those of our cotem-
porary because they may be valuable in dis
cussion which seems to be daily increasing in
interest. When this discussion reaches prac-
teal point, we expect to see general consent
of all parties in favor of New-York as the only
| place on the continent to which the Capital
could now be nationally removed.
