''If, them says Socrates, in the Republic Of
Plato, persons of first rate philosophical
attainments, either in the countless ages that
are past have been, or in some foreign cline,
far beyond the limits of our horizon, at the
present moment are, or hereafter shall be, con-
strained by some fate to undertake the charge
of State, am prepared to argue to the death
in defence of this assertion-that then and
there the realization of the ideal of perfect
government was, is or will be possible" This
thought of the first great thinker that wrote on
government may be aptly remembered to-day,
when we see great division of our population
coming out to honor, as if he had been king
or general, man great only in the world Of
intellect 1t is a good sign for the age that it
is disposed thus to do large and public honor
to a man like Humboldt, whose life was de-
voted to the increase of knowledge, for it i'm
plies that men know who their true
benefactors are, and it also indicates
the active influence upon the govern
ment of the world of the men who alone
will touch it with unselish intelligence. If the
world will accept as its heroes, its saints, and
the special objects of its general admiration,
thinkers, writers and philosophers, we can
afford to be careless as to who sits in the
Board of Aldermen or who is sent to Albany
to sell privileges to the railroad companies
for while these can only draw statutes and
''enact" them, the philosophers will frame and
form the public mind, and with that truly hon
| est bad laws can do small harm. Such men
as Humboldt are, far more than any round
dozen Of poets piece, the ''unacknowledged
/ legislators" and they are only unac-
knowledged because formal recognition would
be a superhuity. We should be grateful,
therefore, to our German fellow citizens for
the good example they set in celebrating
man of this character; and we are glad to
perceive in their choice the natural expression
of the elevated views they take of life-the
views that make them good citizens, good men
and good merchants.

THE BATTLE OF THE PLAINS.

Tho Great Litigation for the Tito to the
Hempstead Plains Properiy-A Victory for
tho Modern AIexandcr-Nr. stewart Has
tho Deeds in His Pocket.
On Thursday last, before Judge Joseph r. Barnard,
at Poughkeepsie. application was made by Judge
Hilton counsel for Alexander T. Stewart, for writ
OF mandamus against the supervisor and Town
Clerk OF Hampstead, L. l., commanding them to exc
cute and deliver TO Mr.. stewart conveyance OF the
Hampstead Plains.
The subject was fully argued. and Judge Arm
strong was heard behalf OF the town auth0rltes,
stating oil the facts OF the case and the various
claims made by Mr.. Harvey adverse to the consum-
nation or the conveyance to MFR. Stewart but add
ing, however, that the Town supervisor and Clerk
were desirous OF carrying out the wishes OF the
town electors II tho court should Determine it was
their legal dnty to do so.
Judge Barnard declared unhesitatingly that 1t was
their duty to do 30, and forthwith issued his man.

accordingly prepared the deed OF the Plains, which
comprise, exclusive OF roads, ITO acres, and on
yesterday Monday morning rendered it to Mr..
Stewart. He at once accepted 1t and gave hls check
for the whole c Consideration Of s3sa,s5
The stamps on the conveyance covered nearly the
whole paper and cost 49, 9i4. The deed was recorded
yesterday with the County Clerk at jamaica, and
thus Mr.. Stewart has become the actual owner OF
the Hampstead Plains, Notwithstanding all efforts to
legal difficulties have not amounted to much, but
have been overcome by MIR. stewart without the
delay that usually attends such things. " P1AD,

The State of Affairs IN Paraguay.


II is only occasionally that we get news
direct from Paraguay That which we receive
frequently comes, for tho most part, by the
way of Brazil or through the hands of Brazil
ians and their allies. II is manufactured or
garbled in the interest of Brazil and misrepre-
sents the real state of things Lopez, the
President Of Paraguay, according to the re-
ports of his enemies, has been on the eve of
subjugation and expulsion hundred times;
but he holds his ground yet, and is likely to
hold it, There have been similar misrepre-
sentations of his conduct and character and of
sionally, as was said, some facts, and the recall
Of Mr.. Mcmahon, late American Minister to
Paraguay, has thrown more light upon the
nature and prospects Of the war. Our COR
respondence from Paris, announcing the arrival
at that city of Mr.. Mcmahon, says ''it is now
positively known that the position of Marshal
Lopez in the Cordilleras is very strong and
that the Paraguayan chief has still sufficient
elements to sustain the defence of the republic.
The Paraguayans are more than ever decided
to defend the independence and liberty of the
republic against the invasion of the Brazilian
monarchy"
The outrageous treatment of General
Mcmahon by the Brazilians ON his passage
through the lines Of the army calls for the
prompt attention of our government. It ap-
pears that the Brazilian cavalry charged upon
him and his escort, Notwithstanding they had
flag of truce, and that Count d'Eu, the Gene
ral-in- Chief was informed of his coming.
Then the news previously received that
the United States Legation at Asun-
cion had been searched by Brazilian
troops is confirmed. In view Of these
Outrages and of the state of things generally in
that part of the world our government ought
not to remain passive and should be properly
represented by capable minister in Para
quay. Important questions are involved in
the struggle between Paraguay and the allies
which deeply interest the United States. In
the correspondence referred to it is properly
said that the republican principle and republi-
can government in South America are threat
ened by the growing preponderance of the
Brazilian monarchy; that the Tree navigation
of the tributaries Of the river Plate is threat
ened by the countries allied with Brazil, and
that it is Of great Importance that the republic
Of Paraguay should maintain its existence so
that the navigation of the great rivers Of that
part of South America be free and that the
ambition and centralizing power of Brazil be
kept in check. Our government should ponder
over these facts and should be properly repre-
sented in Paraguay. We do not want another
such minister as Washburne there, nor such as
J. Ross Browne was in China, but thorough
American and republican at heart.

The sen"'u~ observation-disclosures and Ma
pOlcOn.

The senatus Consultum-France and Ma
Ia our Issue Of yesterday we printed
upon by the Senate. The original draft of
what we may call the French Reform bill has
had wonderful success. II has been examined
by committee of the Senate and since by the
Senate itself. During the process it has not
undergone any very serious change AS pro-
mulgated by the Emperor and signed and
countersgned by NM. Rouher and Duvergier,
it is wonderfully like its original SELF In one
or two points it Is perhaps slightly improved;
but no thoughtful student of the times can re-
fuse to admit that such constitution would
carry insult to any people not yet emancipated
from the long garments and other entangle-
ments of babyhood. If the French people can
make no better terms with the Emperor the
French people ought, we suppose, to be
satisfied. Milk for babes, strong meat for
men-such is an old and wholesome regimen.
If the milk satisfies France the outside world
has no cause of complaint
We cannot forget, however, that the Corps
Legislatif, the popular branch of the French
Legislature, which will assemble few weeks
hence, will have something to say on these
reforms. That the new constitution has been
approved by the Senatorial body is no proof
that it satisfies France. The French Senate,
from the very nature of its composition, is and
cannot but be the tool of the ruler for the time
hoip Go Iorn ska int
directly or indirectly, by the Emperor or chief
of the State 1t cannot be otherwise. French
feeling on the subject of the Emper0rs reforms
is therefore q something of the nature and
character of which to know we must wait.
It Is unfortunate for the Emperor and his
dynasty, but it is fortunate for France and the
French people, that this reform movement
should have occurred at a time when the life
of the man who for the last twenty
years has stood on the summit Of
the French social and political pyramid
trembles in the balance The French people
can now, if they choose, make their own
terms 1t remains to be seen whether France
will have pity upon the Emperor and spare
him. or whether, now that the Emperor can no
longer by native force maintain his position,
the social and political fabric and the Emperor
must 20 wholesale. The situation is critical.
The Emperor may prove himself second
Augustus Caesar, but he may not. We believe
that Louis Napoleon has been blessing to
France. 1t is our conviction that his death at
present would be to his family, to France, to
Europe and to the world grievous calamity.
But there are many in France and Europe who
think differently, and it is their affair rather
than ours. We wish well to the Emperor and
well to the empire, but we wish well also for
liberty. To US the cause of popular progress
is dearer than that of dynasties. Let the
world move ON even II thrones and dynasties
should perish. We have little faith in the
rumors of intended abdication, for the simple
reason that abdication could do no good.

set fire to is made in the interest of the mine
owners and as cover for their own indefen-
sible carelessness. They know that the fire
originated with the hue, and that the mine
ought not to have been as it was day they
know also that it was hardly less than murder
to put men in such mine, and therefore they
want to have it believed that the fire origi-
mated in some way quite beyond their control.

GOVERNOR HOFFMAN AND THE FIFTEENTH
AMENDMENT. AS to the New York ratifcs-
tion Of the fifteenth amendment, it appears
that Governor Hoffman has had no idea of at
tempting notification by Withholding its
transmission to the Secretary of State at
Washington. On the other hand, to put an
end to all quibbling, he has quietly forwarded
the papers to the State Department. The
Governor has got beyond the gaming of the
small politicians, and his motto is excel
sior"

The MAINE ELECTION. dispatches
this morning, as of course was expected, show
a republican triumph for Maine. The issue
was not one to bring out the full vote of the
State. In fact not much more than one half
of the registered vote in the Presidential cam
paign was polled. Chamberlain is reelected
Governor of the State by strong majority.
General Smith polled a larger vote than his
party has been honored with in previous years,
in proportion to the number polled. The
temperance candidate, Hichburn, was far be-
hind in the race, showing that after all
the Maine temperance law is in the main not
the thing for the people of the Pine Tree
State.

Sabbath ROwdyisni.

Although the churches are we'll filed every
Sabbath with pious congregations and pastors
are exuberant in their denuncations of vice
and in pointing out the paths to virtue, 1t does
not appear that the holiness of the Sabbath is
any protection against the worst forms Of
crime. Indeed, portion Of the community
seem to single out that day for such pastimes
as rowdyism, brutality and murder may sug-
gest. The police records of last Sunday, for
instance, show no less than eight cases of q
very grave character. To begin with, stab
bing case in Mott street, probable homicide
in Pearl street, a robbery at the New York
Hotel, felonious assault and stabbing in
Eldridge street, another stabbing case in West
Broadway, highway robbery on Seventh
avenue, a savage assault, accompanied with
robbery, upon woman in Catharine street,
the killing of child in drunken affray be-
tween father and mother in Mulberry street,
and fight in which the knife was probably
fatally used in Christopher street This is .
very sad Sabbath record, indeed. Either the
pulpit must be more practical in its efforts to
reform human nature, or the police authorities
must be more active in subduing the savage
passions which the pulpit cannot reach or con-
troll, or else the Sabbath will become day of
blood and crime rather than of peace, rest and
holiness
