Chinese ruffians in San Francisco
have sort of mutual insurance society,
by which, one who is injured in any
scheme of murder or plumber receives
weekly allowance, and in case he
goes to prison his family is provided
for. New York thieves will not be long
in initiating the example.
The San Francisco Bulletin urges the
North Pacific Steamship Company, re-
Gently organized in that city. to estab-
lish line of steamships between San
Francisco, Australia and New Zealand
Yesterday, an old man named VIM.
Hudson, near Alton, ILL.,, was found ly-
ing dead in his cabin, where he lived
alone. When found, his ear and part
of his cheek and neck had been gnawed
away by dog 1t is not yet known
whether he died from apoplexy and
was then mutilated by the dog, or
whether he was first murdered.

days OF battle without an accident, and
on Sunday night we lay beside ead
other In the mud, still within range Of
1.-THE rebel artillery that had been firing
GU ns three, days. The rain was falling
quietly that night, and the sky was
hung with heavy clouds, which, added
to the smoke OF battle, rendered the
darkness doubly intense.
Our rations had run out, and during
that day our mess subsisted upon a
handful OF dried apples which had
brought with me from the hospital.
We all had the impression that the
next day would bring on the great and
decisive contest, and we were preparing
to sleep as best we could in order to be
ready for the next days work, when the
word came down the line in whisper
to " fall in" without word.
In another minute we were all mo-
ton, and within quarter of an hour
we were across the river and moving
on the double quick across the plain.
We supposediit to be q movement in
connection with night attack, but to
our utter establishment we were order
ed to halt, put up our tents and go to
sleep. -+
Too much exhausted to put up our
tent we wrapped our rubber blankets
around us and lay down in the mud
while the rain fell in torrents all night
In the morning we saw that our whole
army had recrossed in the night, and
the ground we had lately held was &C.
cupied by the Johnnies, who came
down to the river and gazed earnestly
Jus, as if we really knew we were
about, which think we did, for we
presently moved back about three
miles, out of reach of their guns, and
built our winter quarters.

Between Saturday night and Monday
morning burglars labored hard to break

THE POLICE AND POLITICS.

NE ODLOb AVN n ODA A@N''
MAYOR FoX's order to the police, prohibiting
them from engaging in the approaching politi-
cal canvass. which we published on Saturday,
will meet with the unqualified approval OF all
reasonable men, whatever may be their political
aeiIistions In the words of the order In ques-
tim "the whole time of the police belongs to
the publio" For this reason alone, If for no
other, IL is manifestly improper for the guar
diaus of the peace of the city to neglect their
regular line of duty to engage in active polti-
cal movements. Everybody knows that when
man takes up politics as a business he has little
or no time for anything else and 1t is equally
we'll known that the men who make politics a
business arc as a class, men who live by their
wits, and, having no other visible means of sup
port, fare sumptuously upon the plunder which
they extract from the public crib.
Aside from this, however, it is only by the
strict enforcement of such an order as that just
issued that we can possibly be blessed with a
non-partisan police. Under the system of cor
ruption and incompetency which has come into
vogue in this country, the occupant of every
public Office devotes large share of his time
towards securing himself in the position which
he holds. He becomes a mere tool in the hands
of more influential politicians and offce-holders,
and if he refuses or neglects to devote all his
energies 10 the TASK OF building up JnelT power
in common with his own, he loses his Office by
decapitation when it is held by appointment, or
by failure to secure a denomination when he
is elected directly by the people. The
police force of a large and populous
city like Philadelphia are capable
in this way of accomplishing great
deal of mischief, of lending valuable assistance
to iniquitous schemes for perverting the will of
the people, and of exercising over the result of
an election far greater influence than is due
to their individual merit and their standing in
the community, aside from that given to them
by their badge of Office. We believe that Mayor
Fox has issued this order in entire good faith,
and that it is his serious intention to enforce it
strictly both in letter and in spirit. If
such should be the case, he
will deserve and receive the warm thanks
of all well-disposed citizens. The only cause
for regret is that the police force, well as the
occupants of all other public positions, cannot
be deprived even of their votes during the time
of their service to the State. This principle OBJ
tains to some extent in England and if it could
be successfully introduced into this country it
would be productive of the best results in pro-
noting efficiency, honesty, and impartiality in
the administration of our public affairs.

MINIsTER MOTLEYS RECEPTION

MINISTER -hOTLEI'S RECEPTION.
WHILE the British press is still bowling in deri-
sion at the claims advanced by the United States,
aud frightening Professor Goldwin Smith, the
New York Tribune correspondent, and other
worthy but weak-kneed gentlemen, ont of their
wits, portion of the English people who are
Immediately interested in the preservation of
peace and who would be the first and greatest
sufferers in the event of war, If the Alabama
difficulty is allowed TO stand as a precedent, are
taking a more sensible view of the matter. Yes
terday Minister Motley received the addresses of
welcome of the Chambers of Commerce
at Liverpool and replied to them with
the dignity becoming the representative of
great nation that is smarting under sense of
wrong, and which viii submit to no terms but
such full and sufficient satisfaction as the wrong
doer is able TO make. Mr.. Motley declared that
the United States Government desired amicable
relations with Great Britain on the basis of JUS
tice and a dispassionate regard for the rights
and duties of both, and that his most strenuous
efforts would be devoted TO further good un-
derstanding on the basis of enduring friendship
and kindly relations, in accordance with the
! great principles of justice and honor which are
! the lmmutable and only safe and unerring guides
in the conduct OF nations.
During the Rebellion we had no more virulent
enemies than the Liverpool merchants. They
rubbed their hands in glee at the prospect of the
destruction ot our commerce. and combined
with good old-fashioned Britth hatred of
American institutions longing desire to again
assume the supremacy of the seas which had
been wrested from them. The downfall of the
Rebellion, however, put the transactions of the
Alabama in an altogether different light. The
British merchants saw in her precedent that
was likely at any time to be brought up against
them, and they are consequently much more
anxious to have the matter settled upon sub
stantial basis than are the Tory landholders who
have nothing TO lose in the event of maritime
| war
The eyes of the British people have been
opened to the real sentiments of this nation, and
VIC hayG every confidence that .lr, Motley viii

THE DLSESTA BLTSHMENT OF THE IRISH
CHUROH

THE British House Of Commons yesterday did
their part towards righting grievous wrong
that has existed for centuries, by passing Mr.
Glad5tOne's bill for the disestablishment of the
Irish Church by the decisive vote of 3e1 TO
24I The bill itself is model of prudent and
impartial justice While it does away with n
great evil that has been prolific source of
discomfort it makes ample provision for all the
interests that have a right to be considered. and
it leaves no legitimate cause for complaint with
those who will be deprived of their sinecures by
its enactment.
The maintenance of the Irish Church in oppo-
stion to the wishes of a very large majority of
the people, and at the expense of those who held
with the pertinacity of despair to a diametrcally
opposite religious system, was an outrage that
no other country than England would have ever
insisted upon. 1t has been one of the most fruit
full sources of discomfort, disturbance, and blood
shed in Ireland, and its total abrogation was the
first great step that had to be taken before any
other reforms could be attempted. The question
now is, whether the step has not been taken too
late and whether the Irish sentiments of hos
tility to British rule have not reached a point
at which they will refuse to be propitiated.
However this may be- the disestablishment of
the Irish Church was a just deed that we are
day.
The bill willnow go to the House of Lords, where
it will probably meet with more determined
if not more vigorous opposition than it did in
the Commons; but it is scarcely likely, under
all the circumstances, that the upper house will
refuse to give its assent to the measure The
passage of this bill is the triumph of the Glad
stone administration, and it is the most import
ant reform that has taken place for years in the
British administration of affairs. What the ulti-
mate effects will be it is impossible to foresee;
but the indications are that it will lead to the
disestablshment of the English Church,
and to the severance of the union be-
tween Church and State, which now
remains as one of the most obnoxious relics of
medievaism, to the disgust of large, inhuen-
tial, and rapidly increasing body of dssenters.
That such severance would result to the advan-
tage of the English Church there can be no
doubt, and by placing it upon the same footing
as other religious bodies, it would be obliged to
free its9f from its traditions and enter upon the
work of evangeization in spirit suited to the
ideas of progress which rule in other matters at
this day.
