We have often printed articles that related to the
discipline which is attempted to be enforced in the
famous Joliet Qll) Penitentiary. This extract, of
the same tenor is taken from the Chicago Times
The Grand Jury of viii county, Illinois, has made
a presentment against the Managing Commissioners
and Warden OF the State Penitentiary at Joliet The

convicts were armed with formidable knives. 1t

The IRISH CHURCH BILL last night came up
in the House of Lords for a report from the
committee, and the work commenced of
amending some of the amendments that had
been fastened upon it. At an early stage of
the discussion, january, 1871, the original date
of disestablishment, was changed to January,
1872. Last night the date Of May 1, 1871,
was substituted. The original amendment
was designed for the benefit of those in pos
session of the church property, and probably
in hope of reaction in public sentiment,
which would result in favor of the conserva-
tives. If the other amendments with which
the bill is now encumbered are done away
with in like manner, the Lords will be placed
in the very unpleasant predicament of being
obliged to yield to the threats against them
selves that have been so freely made; whereas,
if they persist in their opposition to the
wishes of the people, there is scarcely any
doubt that the threats will be carried into
execution. The peers, by their ignorance
and obstinacy, have contrived to get them
selves into situation that is far from agree
able in either case.

THE NEGRO MEMBERS OF THE
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.

ATTENTION has again been directed to the
legal status of the expelled negro members
of the Georgia Legislature by the letter of
the ex-Vice President of the Confederacy,
Alexander II. Stephens, which we published
q few days ago. The controversy affords an
excellent illustration of Rebel duplicity. The
radicals in Georgia having complete power in
their hands, at the Constitutional Conven-
tion, exercised it magnanimously. They
acted in good faith on the theory of universal
amnesty and universal suffrage, ignoring the
example which Tennessee and Missouri had
given of DISTINGUISHING those who had
actively participated in the Rebellion They
inserted a clause, however, disqualifying
soldiers and officials who had been
prominent in the war against the
Union from serving as members of the
Legislature OF holding Office. This
restriction was disregarded by the voters and
when the Legislature first assembled, its white
and colored Republicans could have very
properly united in excluding the white Rebel
members. They concluded, however, to carry
the policy of magnanimity one step further, and
to permit the disqualified foes of the Union to

was settled, the Rebel members, who had in
reality no constitutional right to act as legis-
lators, devised scheme to exclude their
colored colleagues. An antquated and obso-
lete black code, forbidding negroes from hold
ing Office, was made the pretext of this move
ment and the ostracism was speedily
effected. A subsequent contest before the
courts has shown that this law was falsely
Interpreted by the Legislature, and now Alex
ander FL. Stephens comes to the rescue to de-
monstrate that, although men who had no
legal right to represent the State elected on
insufficient grounds duly elected members
they cannot be reinstated, even since the
reason assigned for their exclusion has beer
shown to be erroneous because the judgment
of parliamentary bodies in regard to qualih
cations is conclusive and final. Under thii
ruling majority can exclude any membe

THK ALARAMA onKSTTOM.

THE discussion of the Alabama question has
been postponed in the House of Commons
at the request Of Mr.. Gladstone, who was of
the opinion that in the present state of pub
lie feeling, the interests involved would thus
best be promoted. This postponement of the
debate has been commended by the English
press, and it will not be received with dis
satisfaction in this country. We are anxious
to have this disagreeable controversy settled
in peaceable manner, if possible; and we
are placed in such position of advantage
that it is far more to the interest of the Eng
lish Government to have the principle in
volved decided equitably and promptly than
it is for U.S. We can afford to wait inde6-
nitely, or to throw the whole matter over
board, if it should seem preferable to do 80.
The very agitation that is going on in Eng
land, and the reiteration in every key of the
clustering determination not to yield TO de-
mands from this side of the water, and the
talk about upholding the honor of England,
prove that the British people are not only
alive to the Importance of the controversy,
but to the inconvenience of allowing it to re-
main open, so as to become a source of
future trouble. The more vehement their
protestations that they will not yield, the
surer they will be to change their minds
when it comes to the point
The London Times, in its discussion of the
question, makes a very serious mistake in
supposing that Reverdy Johnson's treaty was
rejected as much through party antipathies as
from any discomfort at its provisions. The
truth is that Mr.. Johnson's appointment was
satisfactory to all parties but he only lost
the confidence of the public by his silly con-
duct, and his treaty was rejected because it
was not considered equitable. The Times,
too, is gratifed at the prevalence of more
moderate views in America, and attributes
this favorable change in public opinion on
this side of the Atlantic to the discovery that
England is determined not to concede beyond
a certain point, and that this resolution is not
likely to be shaken. This is another mistake.
The British press and public thought that,
because they were frightened, we were in an
agony of terror likewise and that the sub
sidence of the excitement over Mr.. Sumner S
speech was due to a backing-down on our
part. The truth is, here has been no excite
ment here, and no disposition to recede from
the position we have assumed. We are in no
hurry to settle the Alabama business, but we
are determined to have it settled to our salts
faction, or else not to have it settled at all.
Either consummation would still allow us to
maint ain our superior position.

THE GREAT EASTERN it is thought, has by
this time reached shoal water, and if no acci-
dent occurs the new cable willbe safely landed
on the American shore in day or two at the
furthest. According to the despatch from
Brest, dated yesterday, at noon on
Thursday the Great Eastern had run 1854
miles, and had paid out 1877 knots of cable.
The mishaps that for time delayed the ope-
rations of laying the cable proved happily to
have been of no great moment, and it is gra-
tifying to know that this great enterprise is
approaching a successful conclusion. The
advantages of having two cable lines termi-
mating in different countries are many; and
as the French cable will land its American
end on our own shores, we have a particular
interest in its success beyond the mere pro-
liabilities that il will induce lowering of the
rates and consequent increase of the business
of ocean telegraphing.

POLITICAL REFORM IN FRANCE

POLITICAL RbFOhM IH p"HA' OU'
Tur cable telegram furnishes additional in
telligenoe in regard to the proposed minis
terial changes and notifications OF the form
of Government in France. That sturdy OLD
,,otoran M. Theirs, seems to be on the point
of Gaining substantial victory at last. lie
has lone borne to Napoleon a relation some
what similar to that which Thaddeus Stevens
bore to Andrew johnson; and the Emperor
onpoved. wearied, and alarmed by the pro-
traoted conflict, is apparently disposed to
seek repose and safety in compromise. NJ.
Theirs is the prominent French champion OF
parliamentary government, and 1T has been
tbe ambition of his life to control the King
or Emperor of France, for the time
beinp. on the one hand, and the French
Assembly, or Corps Legislatif, on the other.
At one period during the reign OF Louis PHI
lppe he enjoyed this favorite position. Sub
secuently, after Napoleon's election as Presi-
dent, and previous to the coup d'etdt, he exer-
cised commanding influence in the French
Assembly, and he looked hopefully forward to
the destruction of the republic as the signal Of
his return to power as the minister of a con-
stitutional king. The bold usurpation of i'm
perial honors and absolute power thwarted
these expectations, but NJ. Theirs has still
toiled on in the opposition, and his assaults
upon the Napoleonic policy in recent years
have been as sharp and incisive as the thrusts
owen by the famous old CommOner of Ian
caster county to the merry Andrew of Tennes
see. His extraordinary intellectual abilities,
united with his popularity as historian and
skill as politician, have given peculiar weight
and force to his arraignment of the Emperor.
He thoroughly exposed the folly and extrava-
gance of the Mexican expedition, and clearly
pointed out the weakness and absurdity of
Napoleon's European policy, impressing upon
the minds of intelligent Frenchmen the con-
viction that they have not only lost liberty
and prosperity at home, but prestige abroad.
AS Napoleon now assumes the right to pro-
pose all public measures, he must bear the
responsibility of all his failures. He has
aimed at the establishment of q new Roman
empire in the nineteenth century, but he has
reaped so much more odium than honor from
the assumption of absolute power, that he is
ready at last to share with the Corps Legislatil
the 'tright of the initiative" 1t is stated tha
new Cabinet is about to be formed which
wiN contain four members of the party which
espouses the doctrines of NJ Theirs Th,
basis of the proposed compact is common
fear and hatred of the French Republicans
While they assail in the bitterest terms tn
private character of the Emperor, as wei
as his public policy, they are equally hostile
to NJ Theirs; and they seek relief and reform
in complete revolution. The secret of tn
contemplated union is no doubt to be fount
in the rapid growth, in Paris and other larg
cities, of the ultra element of French politics
