"THE NEGROES GENERALLY VOTED WITH THE
DEMOCRATS. Such is the report of the Savan-
nah city election. In the fact stated it will be
seen that the Southern democracy are begin
ming to understand their true game. 1t is to
get the negro vote; and they can get it, if they
try, everywhere South, because everywhere
having the land and 'those mules"-they can
Outbid the "carpet- baggers"

ANOTHER FERRY. -Apropos to the compile
ton Of the new market at the foot of East Six
teenth street, new ferry is promised from tho
immediate neighborhood Of the market to the
upper part Of Brooklyn. Such ferry would
well supply the place of the public nuisance
that now obstrncts the foot Of Tenth street.

Por AND KETTLE.-It is funny thing to
see the World reading moral lesson to the
of its assaults on Grant. How long is 1t since
the World found Grant guilty of every posi-
BILE and conceivable crime because his name

Nor MUoH OF A SHow.-At the meeting of
the Episcopal Board of Missions in this city the
other evening Mr.. Denison, Of the Foreign
Committee, reported concerning the society's
missions in China Africa, Greece, &C., that
the mission force was thirty-seven, that (for
the last year we suppose) the baptisms were
sixty-six and the combinations forty -seven.
Not quite two accessions to the Church tor
each missionary is sorry exhibit especially
as the years expenses Of the Board were
$4,000. II the Episcopal Church, however,
is rich enough through It's members to indulge
in these costly and proftless labors among the
heather, what right have outsiders to com
plainy

THE REASON. Horace Greeley and Pro-
lessor Perry discussed in Boston the other
night the relative merits of protection and
free trade; and it was quite natural that
Greeley was not able to state the merits OF
his case without considering it's relations to
the dead and gone institution of slavery.
His argument points TO the reason for his
views. He is protectionist because the
shareholders were free traders

Our Candidate for the Papal succcssio.

Our Candidate for the Papal Succession.
Father Hyacinthe is the man for the next
Pope. For some hundreds Of years the Church
has had no such chance to put itself in grand
relation with the spirit Of the age by the mere
choice OF sincere and earnest spirit for its
earthly head than it has now, if it will have
the boldness, the scorn Of the pitiful and the
perception Of its mission in the world that it
must have to exalt this simple frar to the seat
of St. Peter. Hyacinthe is the man who can
revivify her dying body and make her once
more power that the world can accept and
bow to; for he is man who would magnify the
apostolical mission as apart from politics and
small statecraft and priestly abuses, and this
would show that the field for the true labors
Of the Church in the world is greater and more
promising than ever. Had tho Church an
GENTLY adopted the policy Of making Popes Of
the great reformers that have arisen in her
history like Luther; had she thus disposed
herself to purge away accumulated errors
rather than adhering with the greater tenacity
to the evils that had overgrown the good
within her, how different would have been her
attitude before the world to-day L. it too
late to begin to be wise? Is Rome the only
city that will not learn of the march of time

MR.. Dickens ON Education and Popular
GOvernmcnt.

Out West they recognize, in an intellectual
way principally, what they call "horse sense"
They mean thought whose hard lines, plain
force and perceptible application to the case In
hand sane men will not dispute. This is the
sort of sense that distinguishes the recent
address of Mr.. Dickens at an educational in
sttution in Birmingham. Unlike many utter
ances of this gentleman that we have had
occasion to refer to, there is not particle of
the cockney in it; on the contrary, it breathes
the tone of sturdy independence of spirit that
is especially commendable in men who have
something to say, and being doubtful whether
it is quite in harmony with the fancies Of all
the world and his wife, yet boldly say it be-
cause they have faith in 1t. The best part
of the address is the allusion to the
so-called materialism Of this age, and the
defence of the age from the charge that
it studies material facts too cxclusively-a
charge mainly made by worthless who never
studied anything else but metaphysical specula-
ton. Mr.. Dickens is supposed to have uttered
arrant heresy against popular progress in his
declaration that his "faith in the people
governing was Understandable faith in the
people governed infinite" This glittering
generality is one of the platitudes that bril-
liant men are apt to deliver when they give
way to tho temptation to be sententious. For
what are the people governed but the people
submitting quietly to wholesome rule, and
whose faith in such people is not infinite?
II by what he says of the ''people governing"
he means that they are not competent to make
their own rules, why that is the view Of
one who ought to be better taught. lie should
consider the magnificent example of 'the
people governing in this city, and get better
opinions.

ought to be abolished. 1eq az

Epanlsh FrIgate In the BarbOF-Lot-
n. ter from spain.

NEW YORK, October s. The
Spanish frigate fernando Cortes,
arrived to-day from Havana, probably
for repairs, though report says she is
to watch the Cuban Junta or Convoy
Euterpe to Havana.
R1mor has it that the gun boat No
l of the Spanish feet, intends to slip
away to sea, if possible, unless pre-
vented by the interference Of United
States officials. She is, however,
closely watched by a revenue steamer.
A letter from Spain, said to be from
a trustworthy source, says the report
that large reinforcements were being
raised in Spain and forwarded to
Cuba, are either wholly fictitious or
grossly exaggerated, aud that all the
reinforcements he has heard of, after
diligent inquiry. are obtained from
about thousand conVicts, many of
them under sentence of death in
Spain, and who, during the past
month, have been collected at BARGE
iona, and at the point of the hayonet,
detained to await the arrival of yes
sells TO convey them TO Cuba.
A Havana letter of October Cd,
says that Puerto del Padrie has been
taken. The place was abandoned by
the Spaniards because the insurgent
forces were heavily pressing them.
A convoy sent out by Valma2edas,
to Los Tunas. has also been captured
by the patriots. The garrison at that
place IS believed to be suffering from
want of supplies. The aeommunica
ton between Los Tunas and the eoast
is difficult, and each day becomes
