TENNESSEE THREATENED. An effort is being
made by Representatives Stokes and Maynard,
of Tennessee, to have Congress pass law
declaring the Legislature of that State an ille-
gal body because a majority Of it's members
were disqualified on account of their participa-
ton in the rebellion. Happily, the days Of
the present session of Congress are drawing to
a close, and too little time is left in which to
manipulate a job of such magnitude as legis-
lating State out of the Union. As the re-
election of Messrs. Stokes and Maynard is
more than doubtful their desire to reconstruct
Tennessee is easily accounted for.

Cuban Prospects Bright cniuge

Dawn appears to be breaking upon Cuba ut
last, and that noble struggle of the people Of
that beautiful island against injustice and
tyranny is drawing to happy close. History
records no revolution more just nor one which
called forth greater sacrifices, loftier patriot
ism or sterner courage than has been evinced
by the Cuban patriots and it would seem
almost questioning the justice of Providence
to doubt the ultimate success Of such people.
Our own government, instead of extending to
them the active sympathy, If not practical aid,
which a people struggling for independence
have a right to expect, has pursued su-
pinely Indifferent course, rather assisting
Spain to perpetuate her tyrannical
rule upon the Western Continent than
extending helping hand to establish another
republic upon our borders 1t is safe to say
that had the United States extended to the
Cubans the same privileges as were awarded
to Spain, Cuba to-day would be an independ-
ent sovereign Power acknowledged by most Of
the nations of the civilized world. But those
privileges were withheld, and the struggle was
prolonged until the hearts of the patriots well
nigh failed them. The American people, how
ever, becoming tired of the timorous policy
pursued by our government, are moving in this
matter, and their influence is seen in the re-
newed interest evinced in Cuban affairs by
both the President and Congress. General
Banks report, published exclusively in the
HERALD, was the first full official In
sight into the Cuban revolution which
has been laid before the public. Its
disclosures have aroused all classes.
| and Congress itself has been forced to
abandon it's indifference and to take some &C.
| ton upon the subject. The President has
always sympathized with the Cuban patriots,
| but prudential motives heretofore prevented
| his moving in the matter. Now, however, he
| feels at liberty to pursue different course,
! and we are assured that both he and his Cahi-
net will warmly support any policy that Con-
gress may initiate. Upon Congress, there
fore, rests the responsibility Of Cuban inde-
pendence. General Banks has plucked up
courage enough to offer his long, withheld re-
port to the House to-day, and he will be ably
seconded by leading members whose active
| sympathy for the Cuban cause has been many
times expressed. The House will doubtless take
favorable action upon the report at once, and
send the matter to the Senate, where it must
not be suffered to ''sleep the sleep that knows
no waking" Mr.. Sumner has doubtless ere
! this modified his views upon the Cuban war,
and has learned that the patriots were in
earnest when they emancipated their slaves
and that Spain is equally in earnest in her
efforts 10 perpetuate slavery. The Senate is
to be the battle ground of Cuba; that body
will determine the fate of the Queen of the
Antilles-whether she is to be made desert
and a waste or take her place among the inde-
pendent republics of the western world.

Tho Massacre of tho Jews Denied.

Our cable kilograms from Europe, dated in
London yesterday evening, convey the highly
important and very consoling intelligence that
the report of the massacre of the Jews in
Roumania was without foundation. Inquiries
from New York as to the truth or falsty Of the
detail had reached London. The cable replies
to-day that no such advices had been received
there, and that the continental news agencies
deny that there have been any outrages per-
petrated recently upon the Jews in Roumania.
TeIegrams from Bucharest state that an election
riot occurred in one of the villages OF
the principally lately, but the disturbance
was quelled almost Immediately. The "Jews'
massacre" telegram, as it was published by
parties in New York, was dated in CONSTANT
nople on the 1st of June. The frightful
events which it purported to narrate would
certainly have been heard of in London, Paris,
Vienna, Brussels and st. Petersburg, some
time before yesterday evening, the 9Th inst,
had they occurred; the latter very impor-
tant consideration in all that concerns news
dispatches
The New York herald., 1870-06-06

gave the banks six hundred millions and
upwards Of capital; for they draw interest
from their. bonds deposited, which is capital,
and at" the same time the government issues
over six hundred millions of circulating money
to them. In word, the government gratui-
tously doubles their capital without any
consideration in return. Such measures as
these have little difficulty in passing Con-
gress; for half the members, or more,
probably, are interested, directly or indirectly,
in the national banks. We might go on to
show how in other things the legislation OF
Congress is controlled by private and local
interests, and to demonstrate, what was said
before, that members have no large national
or patriotic views; but these examples are
sufficient for the present. Whether there is
any remedy for this deplorable state of things
or not time alone will show. II remains with
the people to decide. Nothing but the power
of enlightened public opinion can cure the
evil
The New York herald., 1870-06-06
The European Mail.

The European mail of the Gath Of May was
delivered yesterday evening. BY special cor
respondence from Paris, Naples, Rome,
London and Ireland, and newspaper reports
from the various cities of the Old World, we
are enabled to present to our readers to-day
very ample RESUME illustrative of the trans
Atlantic situation as it presented at that
legislative deputations, which announced to
him the result of the pse5iscitum, constituted
a very grand and imposing occasion at the
Tuileres. His Majesty's speech in reply,
which we publish IN ertenso and oer6atim,
was able and patriotic and but slightly-con-
sidering the excitement of the movement
laudatory of his dynasty and personal rule.
Our special letter from Paris treats OF the
position of his Majesty after the pIe6sscstu'".
The writer expresses the opinion that the
radical ''Reds" and quasi would-be revolu-
tionists have been effectually extinguished by
the unanimous voice of the nation in support
of law and order aud the constitution as
it is. Preparations had been commenced in
London for the organization and arrangement
of the great Protestant Conference mission to
New York The programme was outlined
by the speakers, and Mr.. Disraeli's book,
'Lothair," endorsed at the meeting as ''the
ablest anti Romanist publication of the age"
Our special writer's in Italy and Ireland report
the progress of the revolutionary agitation in
Naples and the Green Isle. The recent at
tempt at insurrection in Filadelfa, Italy, which
was briefly noticed in the cable kilograms, is
detailed as it occurred; while from Ireland
comes the rather extraordinary and very
strange announcement that the Fenians and
Orangemen of that country are being rapidly
allied in political union looking to the resto-
ration of the nationality. The Latin peo-
pies are evidently deeply agitated near the
| fountain head centres of their race. The
| Russian assertion of toleratiOn-encourage-
ment it may be called-of Professionalism, as it
appears in our columns, is very significant
just now, in view of the general aspect of the
religious question. Naples forwards to us a
special statement of the position which is sus-
tanned by some of the American prelates in
Rome against infalliblity. The woman's
rights question agitation in England is noted
in our special letter from London.
Our European mail dispatches are thus moi
only Of great Importance, but quite interesting
at all points of the budget contents

The Isrnelitc Massacre in ROumania--A
Rabbi's Opinion.

The Isrnelitc Massacre in ROumania--A
Rabbi's Opinion.
1t was natural to suppose that the Israelites
of this city would have made the late rumored
massacre of their co-religionists by the
Christians in Roumania the subject of their
religious discourses in the synagogues. The
remarks of Senator Sprague in the Senate have
greatly exasperated them. On the Jewish
Sabbath the Rabbi Gutheim took occasion to
condemn the Senator's language with great
severity in the synagogue Of Emanuel. He
was unusually severe, too, upon the Christian
priesthood, whom he credited with very little
charity designating their mission as an ''odious,
hypocritical priestcraft, which even in our day
infests the high roads and sneaks through the
byways of mankind" Perhaps the preacher
had some particular class of men in his mind
when he spoke thus for, even under the irri-
tation of this sad news from Roumania of the
wholesale butchery of his people, he could not
have meant to involve the whole Christian
Church in such sweeping condemnation.
With regard to the remarks of Senator
Sprague that the Jews in Roumania had ac-
quired all the wealth, business and property,
by their trade-monopolizing and grasping pro-
pensities, while the Christian population was
in poverty, the Rabbi inferred that the Senator
justified the massacre and would not be unwil-
ling to see wealthy Israelites similarly treated
elsewhere. This was, perhaps, straining an
inference, though many people interpret the
Rhode Island Senator's language somewhat in
the same direction. The Rabbi Gutheim's
words were:-
He takes occasion to hold out warning TO the Sen
ate and the country, from which every true American
will shrink with horror. What does he think that free
American citizens, imbued with the true principles
of liberty will ever be tempted TO initiate those
endish proceedings which are contrary to the law
of God ana mani But the words OF the Senator do
contain q warning most solemn and Omnous. IL Is
this, that even in free and enlightened country
bigOtry and fanaticsm who do not blush to eXtenu
ate the most hOrrid crimes inspired by religious per-
secution They suggest the warning that the
air in which the Senator has been reared.
that the principles which he has imbibed, require to
be purified and revised. They contain the lesson fol
the American people to be careful in the selection OF
their representatives in order to preserve the bless
ing OF civil and religious liberty in all It's purity and
grandeur.
This latter is not an untimely rebuke to New
England puritanism. However, the Christian
world must not be held responsible either fol
the massacre in Roumania or for Mr.
Spragues sentiments thereupon.
The New York herald., 1870-06-06
Hobnobbing With the Indians.

Red Cloud and Spotted Tail, the two antago-
nistc chiefs of the Sioux tribes, have had
long talk and smoked a good many pipes with
the authorities at Washington. Of course, as
in most Indian councils, the talk was all of
peace. Commissioner Parker and Secretary
Cox gave the red men some good advice; but
Mr.. Cox spoke to them as if he were address,
ing so many babies in the nursery, whereas
there was not a banketed chieftain present
who could not buy and sell the Secretary of the
Interior in cunning and sagacity. twas anus
ing to notice how curtly all this aummery was
responded to by Red Cloud. He laid his hand
firmly upon the table and said :-"When l
heard the words of the Great Father permit
ting me to come came right away, and left
my women and children. want you to give
them rations, and load of ammunition to kill
game with" That is the ultimatum of all pow
vows with the Indians. The red man never
talks civilly until he wants ammunition ''to
kill game with" but it is pretty well known
that he seldom wastes bullets on buffalo. The
arrow answers that purpose. The ammunition
is kept for the benefit of our soldiers and white
settlers.
Not much good can come out of all this
interviewing at Washington. 1t has been
going on now these fifty years, and, with the
exception of few tribes on our proximate
border, the Indian is as savage as ever. 1t is
evident that white civilization on the distant
frontier must depend for protection on well
organized military system, and plenty of troops
to carry it out. We are disposed to think,
| however, that the system is far from perfect,
| when we read such news as that from Dacotah
| a day or two ago, to the effect that band of
some three or five hundred Indians were pre-
pairing to make an attack on Fort Mumford,
and the commanding somcer reports that he
had only fifty available soldiers to protect it. Il
our garrison posts are left so thinly guarded
how can the unprotected farmers escape? We
opine that Red Cloud and Spotted Tail and
their accompanying braves will have good
| laugh with their squaws when they get back
to their lodges at their Washington expert
ence, especially if they find the rations and
ammunition there-provided they do not come
| across Sheridan "on a ride"

New American Newspaper In Paris.

We understand that an American newspaper
to be called "7he Paris American," will soon
be published in the gay capital of Europe.
Looking at the vast number of Americans in
Paris-not less than forty thousand, probably,
and continually increasing-there is, no doubt,
an inviting prospect for such an enterprise.
Indeed, it is surprising that an American news
paper has not been established there before
The English have had paper in Paris many
years. 1t has become permanent institution
and is very profitable to the proprietors. Why
should it not be so with an American paper? !?
Considering the rapidly increasing wealth of
this country, the facilities for crossing the
ocean and travelling, and the taste of our peo-
pie for luxury and sightseeing, the time is not
distant when hundreds of thousands will 60
over to Europe yearly, and, of course, Paris
will be the great attraction and centre of all
their movements. In short time the Ameri-
cans in Paris will far outnumber the English
and other foreigners. A thorough America n
newspaper there is necessity, and there never
was more opportune time to establish such
an one. Tproperly conducted it may do great
good, too, in rejecting and diffusing American
IDEAS Mr.. Oscar G. Sawyer originated and is
the head of this enterprise. He has had great
experience in connection with the press, has
undoubted ability as a journalist, and his
travels and experience in many parts of the
world and in all the capitals of Europe, give
him that comprehensive view of things and
that cosmopolitan character Of mind which
make him just the man for such an undertake
ing. The project, we understand, is favored
by the bankers, capitalists and leading Ameri-
cans in Paris and connected with business
there 1t is the intention of Mr.. Sawyer to
employ the best talents in every department of
journalism, and to make an able, lively,
comprehensive and a truly American newspa-
per. With such views and with proper means
there can be no doubt Tile Paris american
will be successful.

THE FRENCH POSTAL TROUBLE. The want
of proper postal facilities between the United
States and France is much complained of in
Paris-and that is where the complaint ought
to be, as all the difficulty is due to the mulsh-
ness of certain of the French authorities. Pro-
per efforts from this side were made in time
for the establishment of postal regulations by
treaty; but the French ministry would not
accept our propositions in regard to rates, be-
lieving that the government income would be
greater without treaty, and having little re-
gard To the convenience Of the people.

ART IN THE OLD WoRLD.-Our special cor
respondence from Paris embraces an able
analysis of the chief works of art which were

view of the subject treating the Fine Arts

enment particularly so at the present mo-
ment, when the peoples are approaching to the
perfection oe q cosmopolitan intercommunion.

RELIEVING THE BORDER. will be nice
point for discussion in Canada, and even in
London, that person so potent in our city
governments as Mr.. Tweed, whose word is as
good as the law, is the friend and patron of
the Fenians-in so far that he spent upward
of five thousand dollars paying their home
ward fares. Perhaps this. however, was also
an act of prime friendship for the sadly
afflicted border people on either side the lines.
