Notwithstanding the troubles of the Holy
Father, it may be satisfactory to some readers
TO be informed that DR.. Manning, the English
Catholic Archbishop is in the best of spirits,
albeit Rome, as he says, is " in the hands of a
mob To our great astOnishment, the Most
Rev. gentleman upbraids England for not in
ierlering to restore the Pope to his old po-
litical authority, as if England could make any
money ont of such venture, OF would be
likely TO undertake it without a reasonable pros
pect of being well paid for her trouble. England
may still be driven and kicked into war
for The sake of Shillings, pence, and farthings,
but she wastes no gunpowder. at this time
a. day, in fighting for ideas. Yet, for all her
indifference, the Archbishop, as we have said
is far from melancholy. He declares that the
Pope is not merely infallible, but that he is, i'll
the long run, iDvincible. Wherefore, though
Rome may he " in the hands Of mob,H and al
though (as the Archbishop says Victor Emanuel
is exactly like Pontus PLATE, yet "a direful day
of reckoning will surely and terribly come if
We may credit the Westminster prelate. Those
who are moderately familiar with Papal his
tory may fancy il is here already.

quillity, we are yet slow to believe that war
has no moral uses and we cannot subscribe
TO any doctrine which declares physical resist
ance to wrong to be irreligious. We must ac-
cent the infirmities of our mortal state. For
instence. we cannot comprehend, in the case
of our own nation, how it was wrong for the
Government forcbly to prevent few States
from rushing upon their own ruin and drag
cling the Others after them into similar abyss
That is to say, we think that in such an emer-
gency the nation was as much In duty Douhd
to fight as father is bound, by the use OF
fire-arms. if need be, to protect his own chill
dren from an assassin. This being settled, the
right or wrong of war becomes comparative
question. In righteous cause 1t Is only per-
sopal self-defense upon a great cooperative
scale. The advantages of war ike That
which is now raging in Europe are Interior
and we willingly admit that they will be needed
as COMPENSATION for the political crimes which
nrovoked hOstilitcs.
New-York tribune., 1870-10-07

instead of two days M heretofore. Election
day is November g. and registration closes
November l. There is, therefore, a whole week
in which to scrutiDizo the lists for fraudulent
names. In this work the new census, in spite
Of Mayor Halls re-districting, will be valuable.
Moreover on the Thursday before election the
Inspectors are to meet, and on that day any
voter in the district can require them TO mark
against any name registered the words
"to be challenged" and on election day
the Inspectors must challenge those so
marked. Any Inspector failing to do this is
guilty of felony, punishable by not less than
one year nor more than five years imprison-
ment. failure TO comply with this is also
apparently violation Of the United States
law. One of the Inspectors and one of the
Poll Clerks are required to be taken from the
political minority; but if Oakley Hall has the
appointment of Inspectors this provision will
be of little avail. Each political party is
authorized to have challenger at the polls,
and for the first time the police are required
to protect the challengers. The canvass of
votes is required to be public, and no one but
the Inspectors and Poll Clerks can take part in
it; but every candidate may appoint person
to be present at the canvass, who, it is re-
quired, shall be so placed as to be able to see
that the canvass is correctly made, and whom
the police are to protect and the Inspectors
cannot remove. The result of the canvass of
each box must be publicly announced as soon
as completed. The law makes all election
Offenses felones, and bristles with provisions
valuable to an honest District Attorney.
wo have not referred to the assistance which
the "Young Democracy" may ailUrd III securing
an honest election, because there is a posi-
bility-nOt, we believe, probabilty-that they
may yield to Tammany Establishments and be
bought off. They have among them men who
know practically all about the frauds in the
past and the persons who have committed them.
They know, too, that it is for their interest to
secure an honest election, and we believe that
they mean to do all in their power to secure
it. If so, the Republican party and tho United
States officers will take care to secure their CO.
operation, as well as that of all other men who,
from whatever motive, shall be willing to as
sist in so desirable a work.
New-York tribune., 1870-10-07
MR. TWEED,S DECOY.

In the last number of HdTper's Weekly there
il n picture of "The Tammany DecOy;" Mr..
John T.. Hoffman, tied by the leg to post,
flutters over n trap, and Mr.. William NJ. Tweed
turks in ambush ready to pull the string as
soon "a the unwary birds have been drawn
into the company of the good-looking captive.
The position of decOy is not an enyiable
one. Ii is not very honorable, and we dare
say Mr. Hoffman does not find it very COM
Portable either. For all his fine feathers and
free appearance, Mr. Tweed has him fast by
the leg.
Voters ought to understand that if they are
cau0bt in the Tammany trap they will only
swell the profits of the Ring, and do no man
ner of good to the unhappy decoy. In his
private life Mr.. Hoffman, to the best OF our
belief. is q gentleman in the Governors chair
he is nothing but the paid agent of Tweed and
Fisk-as much at their mercy as if he were a
clerk of the Department of Public Works,
steward in the Narragansett Steamship Com
pany, or scene-shifter at the Grand Opera
House. These two worthless ordered him to
sign tho Erie Directors Bill, and though the
outrageous character of that measure was no.
torous, though Democratic journals denounced
it as q shameless piece of knayery, he was
compelled to obey. That he knew what a
wrong he was committing is evident from his
taking the extraordinary course of publishing,
with his signature to the bill, an apology for
his conduct. When a man like John I. Hoff-
man, who has kept good company, and knows
the value of good reputation, does deed
like this, the corrupt Ring must have tight
hold upon him.
