Attorney General Hoar on Reconstruction
in Texas.

|
In the HERALD of yesterday we published
In full the letter which Attorney General
Hoar has just addressed to Secretary Of War
Rawlins in regard to the case of Weaver, the
Texas murderer. 1t will be remembered that
this man was arraigned and tried by military
commission at Austin, Texas, for the cold
blooded and brutal murder Of a negro, and that
after fair and impartial trial he was, in Sep
tember oflast year, found guilty and condemned
to be hanged. Weaver, after sentence, filed
objections on the ground that he was entitled
to trial by jury in the ordinary State courts,
and that the military commission had no juris-
diction. The case, as submitted to the Attorney
General, to quote, his own words, was:-
"Whether the General commanding the Fifth
Military District had authority to take man
from the civil power and try him by
military law, or, in other words,
whether military commission in Texas in
September, 1868, had jurisdiction over a
with the murder of another citizen and under
Indictment and arrest in the State courts
therefor" The Attorney General has no diff
ficulty in answering the question, and his
answer is clear, conclusive and completely
satisfactory. He shows that the statute of
March 2, 1857, placed Texas, as one of the
rebel States, under military law. The fourth
section of this act provides that until the
people of said States should be by law admit
ted to representation in Congress, any civil
governments which may exist therein shall be
deemed provisional only, and in all respects
subject to the paramount authority ofthe United
States to abolish, modify, contract or super
sede the same" Gas the State Of Texas had
not in September, 1868, and has not since
adopted constitution in conformity with
the provisions of this act, and has
not become entitled to representation
in the Congress of the United States,
the act was operative in Texas at the
time the military commission was organized
for the trial of Weaver" The Attorney Gene
raj comes to the conclusion that he ''can find
no reason in law for the Presidents withhold
ing his approval of the course taken by the
commission and OF the sentence which tney
have pronounced"
1t may be taken for granted that this is the
policy which the administration intend to
pursue with the unreconstructed States Of the
South. The will of Congress is to be faith
fully carried out. This, in fact, was clearly
foreshadowed in President Grants inaugural.
1t is for the three unreconstructed States-Vir-
ginia, Mississippi and Texas-to look facts in
the face. Let them accept the situation at
once. Let them fall in with the requirements
of Congress and Of the administration, get
back into Congress by the coming winter and
have their State governments placed again in
good working order. When this is done they
need have no fear of the negro. This is the
advice of all their own best men and the wish
of their friends everywhere.

HAYu.-Another victory by the black war
rior Salnave--the blackest, ugliest and brav-
est African of the Lots reported over the
Cacos, or wild niggers of Hayti. The case
still looks rather dark for Salnave but in his
pluck and perseverance, black savage though
he may be, he has some Of the merits of a
great soldier, and is evidently resolved to
fight the Cacos till they kill him. He is the
Richard the Third of Hayti, remorseless,
cunning and warlke African but his Rich

The Annual Summer Meeting Mt the Jerome
Park Course.


The Derby awakens in Great Britain a
national enthusiasm which pervades all
classes and attests the hold which racing,
as an Anglo-Saxon institution, retains, and
bids fair always to retain, upon the British
public. This institution, transplanted to
France, has at last taken root there, thanks to
the persistent encouragement bestowed upon
it by the Emperor of the French, Napoleon
I'LL, and the members of the Paris Jockey
Club have succeeded in making the races at
Chantily and at the Bois de Boulogne not only
fashionable, but popular. Frenchmen have
also been convinced that there is an intimate
connection between the races and the steady
improvement of the various breeds of horses,
whether the latter be raised for purposes of
pleasure and display, of work or of military
service. For some reason the efforts of the
American Jockey Club to establish racing
here have hitherto been less speedily success
full. But on Saturday, the first day of their
annual summer meeting at the Jerome Park
Course, the presence of crowded, as well as
fashionable assembly, justified the hope that
any previous mistakes of management will
henceforth be avoided; that the absurd and
fatal spirit of exclusiveness will be exercised,
and that, freed from all its Objectionable
cans, as it has long been with the English and
is beginning to be with the French, truly
national pastime.

THE PRESIDENTS MovEME NTs.-The Presi-
dent, with a distinguished party, returned to

farewell ball of the evening before to Mrs.
Admiral Porter, at Annapolis, by the Naval
School. After resting few days General
Grant, it is rumored, will set out for an excur-
sion northward-destinatio 'the Hub and
the -dub-dub' of the Peace Jubilee.
Very good Let them have Grant, and '1et

Clarendon had to make last night before the
House of Lords;" but the ministerial 7'ele-
graph says that ''the speech of the Foreign
Secretary looks like an unmistakable ex-
preston Of English opinion, made with digni-
fled irmness and an indication of the national
resolve" The Star (speaking for the John
Bright radicals) says, 'We can now advance
steadily into the future" From these different
opinions we conclude that the present British
government is prepared to treat with Mr. Mot
ley upon basis considerably in advance of
the Johnson-Stanley fiasco in opera 6outs.
Meantime, from the British newspaper ex-
tracts elsewhere in these columns, it will be
observed that the lines which divide England's
ruling aristocracy from her working masses
are beginning to be the lines of division be-
tween the tory and liberal parties. Such an
agitation was commenced in France
under Louis XIV, and we know how
it eliminated under Louis XVI. The
London Star, in behalf of the liberals, says,
"In this country we are used to the beau
monde We understand it. We are not dis
turbed by it. Above all, we know, as Mr..
Forster, says, that fashionable men do not
govern the destinies of England, that the
same society which hated the North and made
the South seem popular hated Parliamentary
reform and drove Mr.. Gladstone from Office
for proposing it." Finally, looking to the
United States, the Star points to the good
wishes for the Union of the Engl.sa millions
against " fabulous damages for the futile efforts
Of our foed and abashed upper ten thou
sand. The tory Standard, from the aristo-
cratic standpoint, is shocked at Mr.. Forsters
"atfected contempt for the educated classes
en- mGsse," and boldly declares that the ed
ucated classes of nation are the nation, and
the masses are their followers" Let us have
a little more of this, and the agitation of this
Alabama question will be as disastrous on
their own soil to England's responsible aristoc-
racy as was their piratical confederate on the
high seas to American commerce
In any event, it is clear that the necessities
for speedy and peaceable settlement of these
Alabama claims are with England and not
with the United States We can wait. We
are the creditor, and as the creditor we can
push our bill or defer it to more convenient
season. The option is with US, and the re-
sponsibility is with England, now or hereafter,
at our discretion
