Ru..ia md America.

In Governor CURTIN's speech at the
"big drunk" rendered him by his ad,
miring friends of Philadelphia on Sat
urday night, he referred to the friendly
relations existing between the United
States and Russia, and said:
1t is somewhat anomalous that the
treest and the strongest Government
in the new world should have main
tanned the most amicable relations with
the most absolute monarchy and the
strongest Government of the old world.
The fact is not so remarkably "ano-
malous" either when properly consider
ed. Russia isR despotic Government OF
the savagest sort, but its rule is not a
whit more arbitrary than has been that
of our own Government at many time,
during the past ten years. If the party
re presented by CURTIN can fully sue
ceed, the "anomaly" will not even ap
pear to exist Unity of aim ana charac
ter will have assimilated the two Gov
ernmentS, so that in Russia as much rea
freedom will be enjoyed as under the
Republic, and in America as much gen
uiue despotism may be experienced as
under the Car.

4 Problem Solved.

How to evade the law that prevents
officers in the army from holding civil
offices and drawing pay therefrom, is a
problem which has lately vrXed the
loyal" heart. S,CKLES has been in
deep distress over this knOtty and
naughty proposition. He wanted to
accept the Spanish mission, with all the
plumber thereto pertaining, but did not
want to 20 through the requisite pre-
liminary of resigning his commission in
the army with all the incidental perqu,-
sites. The Secretary of War, by order
of the President, who, be it remem.
bered, is the special champion of re-
trenchment and reform, has disposed OF
the "difikilty" that plagued SICKLES 50
sorely He has granted to that eminent
warrior "leave of absence for one year,
with permission to go abroad" At the
end of the year, of course, the leave
will be extended. Thus the Identical
wrong the law was framed to prevent Is
perpetrated. SICKLEs takes his new
place without leaving the old; unlawful
honors thicken upon his modest brow;
the tribulation of loyalty" is over anG
the triumphant American Genius o
public roguery winks his great eye and
betakes himself to maturing some Other
magnificent scheme of swiudling

From letter which appears among
our Washington dispatches 1t vii! be
seen that the Post Office Department
proposes to be honest, so far at least as
to respect the Sanctity of letter seals.

espionage introduced during the war,
well and good. If not, this letter had
better been kept quiet. 1t will deceive
nobody, and will merely direct public
attention to the abuses which "loyalty"
has introduced into the mail
service. Under the teachings OF
STANTON, BUTLER and such men, mail
robbery, for their villainOus prying into
private letters was nothing else, lost Its
odium as a crime and became merely a
disreputable sort of snrewdness. We
seem to he getting away from the days
when thief, murderer, OF Provost
Marshal could justify his enOrmities by
prating of the public safety, and it is
to be hoped that mail robbery and every
other crime which the Radicals tried
during the war to make respectable
will be ranked as in the olden time and
be visited with the proper penalties
both by the Courts of justice and before
the bar of public opiniOn.

The Republic Abroad.

The Southern States were reduced TO
their present condition under the pre-
tence of guaranteeing them a Repub-
lican form of Government" A state OF
affairs under which the people OF the
South could manage their own con-
Germs, subject only to the Constitution
of the United STATES was held by Con-
gress to be anti. Republican. Therefore
the Governments set mp by the people
of those States were overthTown, SOL
diers were put over them, white voters
were DISTINGUISHED, their blacks were
given the ballot, and when, after all
this was done, their elections resulted
otherwise than as Congress desired
those elections were set aside, and what
had been rejected by the ballot was
forced upon the South by the bayonet.
1t looks rather anomalous that our
Congress should hold that to be self
government which denies to the people
the right to govern themselves, and that
while bowling for freedom it should
make freedom consist of nothing more
than the compulsory acceptance OF
rules, laws and ideas abhorrent to the
people. So the situation is regarded
beyond the waters. The Republicans of
Spain are laughed at for apostrophizing
the liberty enjoyed in the United States
and the Monarchists derive their
strongest arguments from the military
dictatiou doctrine practiced under "the
freest Government the sun ever Shone
on" The following extract from a
speech recently delivered in the Spanish
Cortes by Senor RoSAs will show the
manner in which our much lauded Re
publican institutions are eeteemed in
Spain:
He (Senor Rosas) was very severe
with the Republic of the United States.
He said half of it was outside the law.
All the States Of the South rere held under
ike sword Of military government. Indi-
vidual rights were all confounded.
There was no liberty. it was d ictation
sword dictation, The government of
the half of the States had characters
of iniquitous tyranny, for the
interests Of tie conquered countries rere
sacrificed 10 the egOtism Of fthe North. They
ens,ared the wditcS TO gre liberty TO the
Blacks. This slavery would be prolong-
ed years and years, for the Federal icgGi
ity and the autonomy Of the States were
completely abolished Was that the sort
of constitution they wished to give
their country 4? (No, no, and great ap-
plauSe.)

, Cssrrin Murder Of the o,hsr sor.

One week ago to-day Colonel K. W,
FLoURNOY, Democratic member of the
Georgia Legislature from Washington
county, in that State, was brutally muir
dered in his own field by a negro in his
employ. We have closely scanned eur
Radical exchanges for some words OF
condemnation commensurate with the
atrocity of this act. So far as We can
learn not a single one of the law-loving
Ioyal' crew has whimpered. Had the
murdered man been a Radical, a mis-
cegenator, pimp, a seducer, or base
ruffian, like some ofthe would-be "loyal'
leaders who have lately brought death
upoA their own heads in Georgia, or had
the murderer worn a white skin instead
of a black one, there would have been
none of this cold and careless dunbneSs
on the part ofRadical newspapers. The
corpse of the rebellion would have been
resurrected; the tale of horror would
have been repeated with all manner OF
terrific illustration; martial law would
have been invoked; the "martyr" would
have been eanoRized; the murderer
would have been damned alive, and
wherever loyalty" has foothold and
the Congo is revered as little lower
