Protestants at least, when we say that
the reunion at this time of the two
great segments of the old Presbyterian Church
would be hailed with general enthusiasm and
gratitude to God, as certain to increase the in
auence and power of the Church-infuence
and power almost uniformly exercised in be-
half of Justice and Liberty, Education and
Morality-and would be jOyfully regarded as
the forerunner, first, of an absorption of nearly
or quite all the minor Presbyterian sects into
the main body, and ultimately of the gradual
fusion at least of all Orthodox Protestants into
single organization or chnrch, with at least
four-fold the ability for missionary work,
whether at home or abroad, that inheres in
our present two or three hundred warning
sects, which persist in maintaining four or five
beligerent churches in a rural township barely
able to support one, at once overtaxing the
ability of the people and booming the minis
ters to semi-starvatiOn. Let us trust that 1869
will be honored as the year wherein long
stride was taken toward substantial and general
Christian Union.

The effort of the new Minister to China to
have the grade Of his mission raised to CORE
spond with those to England and France, will
hardly succeed, though the growing Importance
of our relations with the Chinese is sure to be
recognized. But the proposal Of the Minister
to visit this city and consult with the Presby-
terian General Assemblies on the relations of
their missionaries to the Chinese is wise and
tiemly. Half the British troubles there
seem to be attributed to Quarels grow
ing out of the action of the English mis-
siOnaries They too often go to carry not the
gospel of peace, but sword. We must main
tain our own superior footing with the Chinese
Government and people; and no class of men
can render more efficient aid to that end than
our Presbyterian missionaries.

A few months back the Porto Ricans were
startled for a moment by notice from Gov.
SAM, that a party of Cubanized cOnspirators
were attempting to excite an insurrection in
their island. The Cubanized plotters have
persisted in their plan, notwithstanding the
Governors threat to send them straightway to
Fernando-PO. A Washington telegram of to-
day says that landing has been effected in
the island by Cuban leader who has been
watching his chance from St. Thomas. Thus
is Spain threatened with the loss of another
island, and the most serious diversion that
could possibly be made at this date in favor
of the struggling Cubans.

A CASE OF SUSPECTED MURDER.

On Wednesday, the 18th inst, the body Of
an unknown man was found floating in the Elst River

Whatever Gov. Spragues luck with his
enemies may turn out, he has already proved
a terror to his new-found friends. Here they
have been welcoming his financial theories
and exaltng his financial capacity, when
suddenly he strikes back at them with an
earnest appeal against Free Trade. The
Importers League in this City is said to
be looking for documents against the tariff,
to be reprinted for general circulation. We
respectfully commend to their attention Gov
Sprague's remarks at Memphis.

THE REvoLU7ToY IN TIE ACADEMY

THE REVOL UTION IN TIE ACADEMY.
'Tis long lane that has no turning, and,
at last after jogging on at a snairs pace for
close upon half a century, the Academy of
Design has begun TO talk about putting spurs
to the sides of its dull-paced nag, and making
an effort to catch up with the age. We confess
we think it is about time that this Institution
for which the public has done so much, should
do something for the public; and that Art and
Artists should reap some little benefit from an
Academy created expressly to care for their
interests To our minds, the way in which the
Academy of Design has been conducted during
all these years has been not only discreditabe
TO those who have been at its head, but to the
whole body of artists for, if these had been in
earnest, they might at any time have controlled
the management. Everybody who knows any
thing about the matter knows very well, that
the only men who have shown any earnestness
have been the men who are in office, and there
is no denying they have displayed wonderful
deal Of shrewdness and energy i'll holding on to
their perches They could not be cOaxed of,
nor scared off, norE shamed off; and whenever
there was any attempt to pull them off by main
force they either burst into tears-there is a
somerset over the perch and came up, smiling,
in another quarter. AS for the great body of
artists, they contented themselves with talking
about this conduct in mild, gentlemanly way,
or getting together little caucuses in
one another's studios, and under great
clouds of smoke, over little nOggins of
whisky, determining that, some time "a
other, something ought to be done by some
body. Once or twice, things have gone so far
that a comfortable train of powder has been
laid directly under the COuncil-table, terminal
ing beneath the chairs of the three principal oii-
GERS! 1t has been set off, and the result awaited
with a joy the young conspirators were not
careful to hide. But the intended victims
would seem to have been copper-bottomed,
for, after having been blown up, they invaria-
bly, came down into their chairs again, without
even the smell of fire upon their garments.
A conviction of the uselessness of resistance
began to grow into superstition in tue minds
New-York tribune., 1869-05-20

The tool of the Whisky Ring now on trial
for perjury against Collector Bailey was OF
course quite equal to the feat of lying. He
PLAYED all manner of pranks the other day in
the Courtroom, and finished in dramatic style
by swallowing poison and trying to trlghten
his keepers into momentary expectation
of his demise Yesterday, however, he turned
up, as much alive as ever, though not quite so
lively, and had the pleasure of hearing some
damaging testimony against himself. We hope
to see these whisky cases vigorously prose-
cnted. and honest officers sustained.
New-York tribune., 1869-05-20

One telegram brings us the news of a pro-
nunciamonto in Mexco-another tells us that
it is put down. This is the old Mexican story,
which seldom varies, except as to the number
of the pronunciamentos. We were of late told
that the revolutions in Sinaloa and Guerrero
were serious next day we heard that both
were at an end. Our impression is that they
were no revolutions at ALL or but passing
phases by no means extraordinary, of the
banditism which besets certain portions OF
those States. That an insurrectiOn has broken
out in Queretaro, with Gen. Alvarez at its
head, is in all probability fabrication, since
Alvarez has hitherto confined his operations to
the State of Guerrero, of which he was
Governor, and which is now reported at peace.
The charges of corruption made against the
Judges of tho Supreme Court of Mexico have
not yet settled authenticity in our news; but
we conceive it probable that portion of that
body is quite worthless, and that the Mexican
Congress have done creditable thing IN
indcting them before grand jury OF the
republic.
New-York tribune., 1869-05-20

That niger had no business to vote or
hold Office, we have heard ever since we can
remember; but we never heard it denied that
he had right to WOrk. In fact, we have un-
derstood that this was just what he was made
for. Hence the opposition to Mr.. Lewis
Douglass's being employed as journeyman
printer seems to raise a new point in the
never-ending, still-beginning controversy.
On the whole, we hope the Washington
printers will determine that Mr.. Douglass
shan't wOrk--or rather, that they won't work
where lie does-and so vacate the places that
have known them long enough and let Others
take them. Washington is a caravansary, and
we always like to hear Of its denizens moving
on to give place for others. Do, Messrs. Wash
ingtOn typOgraphers! resolve that you won't
work eight hours per day for $24 per week
any longer, and let a fresh set take youi
places We believe in rotation out Of Office.
New-York tribune., 1869-05-20
CNRdN VICTORIES.

We have general confirmation of the report
that the Spanards have been whipped In
battle. 1t was one of a recent series of four
engagements between Nuevitas and Puerto
Principe, in which the troops of Spain have
been only twice the gamers, according to the
coolest Judgment of observers not entirely
hostile to their cause. Our own advices re-
specting the latter defeat of the Spaniards at
Sabana Nueya convey rumOr that one Of
their commanders Gen. Lesca, has returned to
Havana to report failure. The regular press
telegram treats the story of victory Mt Las
Minas as an exaggeratiOn; but we are almost
certain that the Cubans have been fighting in
earnest, and that in four encounters can boast
of having wrought their adversary serious
mischief. Accepting the uniform report of the
Cuban side Spain has lost seriously in wagons,
guns, and munitions beside a considerable
body of men, in her last attempt on Quesada.
Proof is that her wounded brought to Havana
confess defeat, and that the mute patriots of
the city rejoice in their hearts.
We have no immOderate anxiety to learn the
exact proportions of the late contests. 1t seems
to be freely granted that the Cubans have
made themselves felt even at such distance
from the scene of their struggle as Havana.
For the first time in months, the native chief
Qucsada has broken out of the state of abey-
ance which Gen. Cespedes considered it best TO
insist upon as military policy. These assur-
ances appear to us significant enough, inde-
pendently of details of battle. Perhaps the
promised time has come when the Cubans, re-
enforced by pestence were to face their foe
in dread earnest, and drive him home. COtem-
porary with the successes described, we receive
a contradiction of the report that the Cubans
lately held convention in favor of annexa-
ton; but confess ourselves still in the dark.

THE ALLEGED MoMENToUs MEDICAL DlscOy-
ERY on THE BATTLEFIELD OF GETTYSBURG
We publish in another column a letter setting
forth the claims of the Gettysburg Katalysine
Spring and Waters. This letter claims that thi;
water is the solvent of Calcul, so long and
vainIy sought among the mineral springs OF
the Old World.
Aside from the scientific and historic interest
which attaches to this Spring, it claims to sup
ply a new medical agent of great and varied
power, and is well worthy the attention Of
scientific men and invalds.
New-York tribune., 1869-05-20

CONCERNING COAL AND FREE TRADE.
The Evening Post makes furious onslaught
on the coal miners of Pennsylvania for fixing
50 per tun as the minimum price of their coal
in this city, and concludes of course, BY an
attack on the Tariff, and demand that tbo
" duty shall be repealed" in order that Nova
Scotia may supply this part of the country
with cheap Goals. II it were not for tbe
enormous duty, according to The Post tbe
Nova Scotians would deliver us coal At far less
than $5 per tun.
What are the factsq The lowest price NJ
which Nova Scotia coal can now be purchased
by the cargo, delivered on the dock in this
city, is SO per tun. The duty is 81 25 per tun
in gold with gold at 40 per cent. premium il
would be, say 81 70. The freight by sail yes.
sells ought not to exceed SO per tun; for. IL
vessels can carry iron ore from Marquette. ON
Lake Superior, to Cleveland Ohio, 200 miles
(about the same distance Nova Scotia is from
New-York), for SO per tun, they certainly can
do it on the sea, where there is no towing bv
steam-tugs, for as low price. The freight
and duty, as thus shown, are $4 75 per tun.
which leaves the Nova Scotia miner 81 2j per
tun for his coal. The actual cost of mining is
not less than So. Suppose there were no
duty-the cost Of freight (33) and the cost Of
delivery at tide-water (S2) would alone equal
the price asked for Pennsylvania coal in New
York Does The Post imagine that philan-
thropic Nova Scotians will mine and send their
coal to this market without getting anything
for it, save actual outlay? Take the duty Of
entirely and then Nova Scotia coal would to-
day cost 81 25 per tun by the cargo in this
market, as against S. per tun for Pennsylvania
coal. The Free Traders had better try again
Their last effort burns their own fingers badly

The Chinese are uneasy. They fear Russian
encroachments, and some of them are again
deDouncing the missionaries. One OF their
officials, if rumor be true, has slapped the

China had given a blow to France-not SO
serious, we trust, as to prevent the consum-
nation of Mr. Burlingames plan of treaty be-
