DIR. CUMMING AND THE PoPR.-Our readers
have now been put in possession of the very
kindly letter which good Pho Mono has
addressed to DR.. Cumming, of London. The
Doctor cannot be heard in the Council. This,
we think, is pity for the Scotch divine, who
is not at all unaccustomed to address ears
polite, might have told the Holy Father and
the assembled bishops some wholesome truths
without giving any very great offence. In one
respect the Doctor has the advantage of his
Holiness The Holy Father is not at all sue
cessful in reconciling his refusal to admit the
Doctor with the invitation which he confesses
he addressed ''to all Protestants and other
nom Catholics" 1t must be somewhat consol-
ing to the Doctor to know that If he chooses
to return to Mother Church the successor of
st. Peter will run to meet him and embrace
him with fathers charity. We fear there is
not much hope for the Doctor.

NEW ASPECT OF THE CUBAN STRUGGLE. -
Spain perhaps has not even yet opened her
eyes on the true proportions of the Cuban
struggle. Cuba is now likely to appear on the
ocean as naval power. Her standing as an
Independent government has been recognized
by two other governments, and that the ships
she equips and puts on the ocean cannot be
treated as pirates Is acknowledged by the gov
erment OF the United States. Virtually this
recognizes her bellgerent right. Only a few
ships on the ocean will teach Spain that the
unpleasant features Of war are not all on one
side. With such cruisers as the Hornet adoat
the communications of tho Spanish govern
ment can only be kept open by men-of-war.
which will add greatly to the difficulties Of the
contest Under the impulse thus give- TO the
struggle we also find an immense Increase in
the flibustering tendency. Spain will have
her hands fun.

The Opening of the French Chambers
General Disarmament.


A cable despatch which we print in theHERALD
of to-day informs us that on the occasion OF
the opening of the French Chambers, which Is
now fixed for the Sth of November, the Emperor
Napoleon hopes TO issue manifesto announcing
an agreement arrived at by the various Powers
for general simultaneous disarmament. This
is the first piece of really sensible news we
have had from Europe for a long time. We
hope it may turn out to be well founded. Large
standing armies have long been the curse Of
Europe and the weight of the curse has been
greatly increased during the reign of Napoleon.
We are willing to believe the news to be true;
for Napoleon can no longer have any desire
for war. France has ceased to growl at Prussia,
and the work of consolidation in Germany is
little likely henceforward to be disturbed by
any French opposition. This movement OF the
Emperor shows that he still delights in sur
prises, while it can scarcely fail to have the
effect ofgreatly increasing his popularity. His
reforms are all the more certain to win success
in the Corps Legisatif and to be popular
among the French people that his power and
lead are still recognized in the courts and cabi-
nets of Europe. The entente cordiale which
evidently exists between Napoleon and the
governments of Europe is hopeful sign for
the future Of his dynasty We congratulate
the peoples of Europe on this promised bless

Our special reports Of the services and SER
mons which were observed and delivered in
the different churches in New York. Brooklyn
and at other points in the more immediate
vicinity of the metropolis yesterday appear in
our columns to-day. The exercises were
vastly refreshing and consoling to erring
humanity, while the episcopal utterances were
vigorous in reproof of sin and bold and firm
in denunciation of Satan and demonstrative
OF his means and agencies of operation. Pre-
scented to the people in the pages of the
HERALD the Christian erpos5 must prove Of
exceeding great value in furtherance of the
work Of the cure Of souls. Some OF the most
prominent and persuasive pulpit orators took
up the telling text of the gold crisis, illustrate
ing the scriptural allegory of the "broad way"
which leads to, God knows what sort
of ruin, by reference to the recent ''run"
and crash in Wall street. and the marrow"
path which conducts to repose and bliss, both
here and hereafter, by tender illusions to
the harassing tremors and doubts, and per-
plexity and final joy, which afflicted and
soothed alternately the minds Of those who
stood momentarily in the corner" and yet
escaped the consequences. 1t was grand
theme, one endorsed by the Great High Priest
himself, at the very outset Of His mission,
when He broke up that powerful money interest
or Stock Exchange the members of which
conducted their operations at the very doors
of the Temple. Professional financiers have
eschewed the clergy to a very great extent
ever since; but it is to be hoped that, even
although hundreds of them may have been
absent from our churches yesterday, they win
all find comfort in reading our religious columns

remain, we fear, before the ministry was also
referred to, and many Of the mnor-in COM

ton lighter wings to fly pointed out. The

proved by the excellent text handled by the

T no Vanderbilt Monument Should Stand in,
the Park.

the Park.
We must repeat our expression of public
opinion in favor of removing to the Park the
colossal bronze statue and allegorical has relief
in honor of Cornelius Vanderbilt, which will
soon be unveiled on the Hudson River
Railroad freight depot. We have already
taken occasion to say that 80 costly
and splendid monument should not be
condemned to concealment and obscurity
in railroad freight depot in a part of
the city where but few of the people ever
90 and where strangers never find their way.
The only fitting place for it is within the pre-
cncts of our noble Park, where everybody
goes and where everybody will see it. A
magnificent arch, like the Arch Of Triumph at
Paris, might be erected at some conspicuous
spot in the Park, and serve as pedestal for
the great bronze statue of hero of peaceful
victories no less glorious than military victo-
~;as- ancnrdinu tn the highoat standard of
modern civilization. The Vanderbilt monu-
ment is tribute to famous exponent OF the
untiring industry, the boundless enterprise
and the incalculable wealth of the New World.
1t should hold in the Park permanent posi-
ton as not only well-merited memorial Of
single individual, but as an encouragement to
millions who shall find in this New World the
amplest field for ambition and energy.

Prince Arthur a Big Bravc-The Succession
to the English Throne and the Monroe
Doctrine.
Prince Arthur of England arrived at Mo-
hawk, Canada West, a few days since, during
the progress Of his tour in the New Dominion
He was received by the people generally with
demonstrations of loyalty and attachment to
the crown similar to those with which he has
been greeted at other points of the territory,
the people turning out in great numbers and
even surrounding" a church, without waiting
for Sunday, in the hope of catching glimpse
of the juvenile Messiah of transatlantic British
royalty. In this instance, however, the Prince
did not, as before, enjoy an exclusiveness in
the matter of imperial attraction, for in
marched six majestic sons of nature, in the
shape of delegation of Mohawk Indians, seek
ing an interview with the foreign dynast. They
came fully painted, and with feathers, toma-
hawks and scalping knives. In peace, or In
war? In peaceful attitude to honor and exalt.
In truth, within few hours Prince Arthur was
made chief of the Six Nations, with "all the
ceremonies" peculiar to the grand occasion, of
which, we regret to say, we have as yet no
account. Perfectly unembarrassed, assuming
his new position in the most graceful-of
course, it was not natural-manner and as II
to prove his entire fitness for due discharge
of the duties of his commanding position, the
Chief-Prince of the Mohawks set out imme-
diately with his fellow braves and future sub
jects to visit an Indian school, where he must
have been delighted to observe how eHfectually
the sharp point of the feathered arrow is
being blunted by the working out of the excel
lent principles laid down In Mrs. Trimmer's
"Book on Education"
The men Of the Six Nations are wise and pru-
dent in their generation, proving by their tact
and prompttude Of action in this instance that
daily converse with nature in her sublime
grandeur and vastness sharpens the human
perception and almost assimilates the mind
of man in its directness moro and still more In
harmony with the unalterable unities OF the
first principle. The Mohawk chiefs despise
'red tape" Just from what little they know Of
It from Ottawa, and, avoiding all the dan
rerous throne complications which are de-
moralizing the Spaniards In Madrid, choose
their man at once. And where could
thew have obtained better one2 Travelling
further, they would, almost to certainty, fare
vor.e." Prince Arthur is soldier. He
graduated In his profession and commenced
his military career in Ireland--a nation Of
soldiers and heroes. He is named after VOL
lington, duke Of ''iron," niggardly as any
Indian In the matter Of compliments
and jokes, and the conqueror Of the
next greatest soldier Of the age before
himself He is, besides, great-grandson Of
George the Third, the royal patron and friend
Of the North American Indians. Of all and

community can be protected in future from
possible injury through the rings and cliques
of gold and stock operators. The first and
most necessary step is to place a statesman at
the head Of the Treasury Departmental man
who understands the great questions Of
finance and who will use his power for the
good Of the public generally. This step the
President can take; for ii is an administrative
one. Mr.. Boutwell, has not the comprehension
and ability for such position. There are
statesmen in the country capable of filing it,
and the responsibility of appointing one rests
with General Grant Then Congress should
adopt measures to prevent, as far as possible
gold gambling, and should place the currency
on such basis as will make it both steady
and available at all times to the business
community. The currency Is the lifeblood of
trade and commerce, and it should be healthily
and equally diffused in sufficient quantity over
every section of the republic. This being
done the necessities of trade will cause it to
flow regularly to and from different points.
At present this is not the case, because advan-
tages have been given to large capitalists over
other people and to the centres of capital over
other sections of the country. 1t would be
better still if the currency were to be made
uniform and legal tenders were substituted for
national bank notes. But whatever Congress
may do in this matter measures should be
taken to keep the currency steady, and to
prevent, as far as possible, the locking of it
up and gold gambling by combinations Of

Ex-PREsIDENT PIERCE Is reported very i'll.
Excepting General Grant this gentleman Is
the only person now alive who sat in the Presi-
Dental chair by the will of the people. Al
though we have other ex-Presidents, they
came to the place by succession and not by
popular choice Mr.. Picrce's long retirement
from public life has softened political asperi-
ties, and we believe there can be no person In
the country who will not hear with sorrow Of
tho danger In which he lies.

SHIPS FOR SALE.-Responsbl parties with
discretion should take notice that Uncle Samuel
Is not building any now vessels for the navy.
On the contrary, he already has more vessels
than he wants, and will sell some for cash.
They are of kind that would be very useful
In landing expeditions on the Cuban coast or
even In vsging Q naval contest.

STEEL.-It would seem that the consular
power is very great, If the Consul at Sheffield
has not transcended it. That gentleman,
moved by our manufacturers here, has refused
to act on the invoices of those exporting steel
from Sheffield to this country, and so has
stopped the trade. There must have been way
to make the duties safe short Of that extremity.

Columbus DeIano.

1t has been a settled question for
zone days that the Hon. Columbus
Delano was to be appointed Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, so that
the announcement of his appointment
and confirmation will take no one by
surprise. But the appointment gives
another confirmation that President
Grants Judgment in the selection of
his officers is as good in civil affairs az
in military. Commissioner Delano is
a man of administrative ability, a hard
worker, and of unquestioned honesty.
With such a man at the head of Rev
enue affairs, aided as he will be nv the
Executive and the Head of the De-
partment, the honest and competent
officers will work with more confidence,
and the dishonest and incompetent
will be compelled to give place to
more worthy men.-C2eoeIand Herald.
That is agood "gook !" Columbus
Delano a man of unquestioned homes
ty! Three times has he filled a seat
in Congress by fraud and fraudulent
votes. He has grown rich by the old
Granville Bank" swindle; and humid
reds of farmers of Licking and Knox
counties remember him and his histo-
~ with sorrow. Yes, he will manage
the revenue so that he can fill his
pockets, while the people mourn.

President Johnson.

On retiring from the Office Of Pres
ident, Andrew johnson deemed. it
proper to address the people of the
United States, on the issues of the
times, anai in defense of his policy and
administration. 1t would have been
better, perhaps, for him to have de.
ferred the matter for a few years.
But smarting under the injustice done
him, he has thought it expedient to
write now. No President since the
foundation of the government has
been pursued and DETAINED with such
persistence as Andrew johnson, by a
usurping and corrupt Congress. By
the passage of the tenure of-ofice-bill,
they tied him hand and foot, and rem
dered him powerless to remove the
legions of scoundrels that were pill
fering the Treasury Now that his
administration has been brought to a
close, these scoundrels and double
dyed villains claim that his admins
tration was the most corrupt that ev-
or cursed the country % while Con-
gress itself is the great sewer of the
c~mgregated feculencies of political
rottenncss and fanaticism. The fetor
of the charnel house is not more
charged with its admonition to our
bodily health to withdraw from the
proximities of death, than the rascal
ties and frauds of the republican lead
ers warn the people to Withdraw from
the support of such a party. A. j.
has made a brave fight. He has shown
true courage; and although not al
ways right, he has increasingly warn
ed the people against trusting men
who were intent on depriving them Of
their liberties, and making them slaves
to the bondholders. Andy is a hero ;
and is entitled to many thanks for his
courage in confronting the treasu-
ry robbers, and the contemnors of the
Constitution of our fathers.

Grants Cabinet.


The following is n correct list oil
General Grant Cabinet
For Secretary of State-Elihu b

For Secretary of the Treasury
Alex. X. Stewart, of New Pork.
For Secretary ofthe Navy-Adolph

For Postmaster General-John A
j. Creswell, of Maryland.
For Attorney General-Eben
lockwood Hoar, of Massachusetts
There was no nominations for Sec
rotary of War
The selection of the Cabinet takes
all parties by surprise 1t cannot be
said to be a political ono. E. B.
washburne is, perhaps the only ex-
ception. Elk. Gov. Cox is a good
man for the position assigned him.
He is opposed to negro suffrage in
Ohio; while President Grant desires
to force it upon the people, A. 7.
Stewart IS probably the richest man
in America. He is a successful mer-
chant. This looks towards high pro-
tective tariffs. A. E. Borie is re-
fired Philadelphia business man. j.
Al. Creswen is a bitter Maryland
abolitionist. Z. r. Hoar is said torbe
a leading lawyer and judge, of Massa-
chusetts.
No nomination has as yet, sent in
for Secretary of War. Gen. Soho
field will probably be retained in that
position as long as he desires to re-
main. His administration of that of
zee, seems to be we'll secured so far.
odThis is a new, deal all around.
Will it suit the friends of Grant /?
Let us wait and see. Philips and his
political hounds will soon determine
the matter.

R6r Never was an eclipse greater
than that of Andrew johnson. He
filled no place in the ceremonies lark.
ing the close of on administration and
the Inauguration of another, and his
absence passed unremarked. Carpet
bag in hand, he seems to have slipped
unnoticed out of the White House,
whilst all Washington was rushing to
hail his successor, and took his melan-
choly way, whittier t'nobody knew
and nobody cared."-Gzeuekand Herald.
This is the first time in the history.
of the government that the incoming
administration neglected to invite tn
retiring President to witness the GER
emonies of Inauguration! 1t comforts
well with the "boorish" history of
General Grant, and is a complete il
lustration of the giddiness produced,
by being elevated from a tanners
clerk" to President. The want of
courtesy towards President johnson
will fail to injure his reputation be-
cause of its malice. Having convict
ed General Grant of a wilful and de-
liberate Justification of the record, he
must needs now show his ~litteness by
refusing to invite President johnson
to accompany him to the Capitol !
This is indeed a pitiful manifestation
of personal spite, in high places.

eral. All these appointments have
been confirmed. -
With Grant as Constitutional Com
mander-in-C Chief, Sherman as executive
head of the army, and Phil. Sheridan
as next in command, the country has
no reason to doubt that the manage
ment of the army is in the hands of
skillful generals and true parriots.-
UerelGzd Herald.
We are glad to see that General
Sherman has been promoted to General
of the army. If the advice of Gener-
al Sherman had been needed, n the
surrender ofGen. Joe. Johnston, the
South would have been long since oc-
cupying her true place in the Union:
We are surprised to see Sheridan
placed over Gen-Geo. H. Thomas.
Thomas certainly deserved preferment.
The slaughter of the ''poor Indian"
doubtless gave Sheridan the adyan-
tage. l. ir
