THE CLUBS IN PARIs-The operations in
Paris against the government are from exactly
the same party whose endeavors gave the late
Emperor the pretext on which he overthrow
the republic of 1S4S, and from the same orders
in society which, making themselves fett
through the clubs of the old revolution, ousted
Of all authority tho legitimate voice Of France
and substituted the voice of Paris and the in
dustry Of the guillotine. They present the
same problem once more, and it is to be seer
recurrence to "strong" government.

MORE RUMoRs OF WAR.-A telegram from
Berlin contains the startling announcement
that Russia is about to take advantage of the
PROSTATE condition of France and Of the supine-
moss of England by making war against the
Sultan and thus gaining control of the Darda-
nslles and the Black Sea. And letter from
. well-informed source in Vienna, relating the
effect which the news Of the surrender Of Sc
dan produced at that court, says that the
Austrian government Immediately set to work
TO put itself In an attitude Of military defence
in Its Polish provinces, and that the rumor
was that Austria would even provoke an in
burrsction In the Polish provinces OF Russia If
fhe latter Power should attempt to disturb the
feace In that part of Europe. We rather
think, however, that the simultaneous arming
bf those Powers has rather common than
Conflicting object; and that that is the parcel

THE ABOLITION QUESTION IN CUBA.--Cap-
tain General De Rodas has just promulgated
an order setting free the children of all slaves
captured since the year 1854 who have served
an apprenticeship Of sixteen years. May not
this be regarded as the entering wedge towards
the practical abolition of slavery in Cuba by
the Se,niards?

Italian Unity Perfect at tho Centre.


Our cable kilograms from London and Flor
ence, under date Of yesterday, report that the
territorial consolidation and national unity Of
Italy have been perfected. The troops of
King Victor Emanuel hold complete posses
sion of the Eternal City. In Florence tho
most active preparations were being made
for the transfer Of the capital to Rome. Italy
approved the act The Romans rejoice at the
consummation of their citizen enfranchise-
ment and civic dignity. The Pope is respected
as Chief Bishop Of the Church. and made COM
pletely free in his ecclesiastical capacity As
temporal ruler his Holiness is ''nowhere."
We have no doubt, however, that he is per-
fectly secure and will be treated with the utmost
respect by the Italians General Cadorna
has ordered guard for duty around the per-
son of his Holiness. Mazzini has experienced
considerable degree of attention, and a gen.
eral amnesty for political offences was looked
for. Thus has the ''edifce been crowne d" in
Italy. Cavour's idea has been completely vim
dicated. The s'red hussar" of the Austrian is
not to be seen on Italian soil. Pope Plus the
Ninth, who really himself set the grand
national principle abroad before the world,
soon after his coronation, has lived to see his
country one, united, and, it is to be hoped,
nounce the it0 .naissa est with an ennobling
fervor and sublime dignity from the grand
altar of ST. Peters.

Begiuning of Trouble In tho Republloss
Party.

BEGINNING Of Trouble In tho Republlcas
Party.
Wendell Phillips has taken up the cudge!s
against the Prussian monarch ard his Minister.
But he out Bismarcks Bismarck In the fury Of
his assault, yet he lacks the Prussian dIpio-
mats symmetry Of calculation While the
Prussian Bismarck foresees the triumphant
result Of fight with France, but fails to rccog-
nize the republican ghost in the background,
the Boston Phillips attacks his own republi-
can party in the citadel of its strsngth-ths
sympathies of our German population. Wen
dell Phillips Is always making trouble. Hs
is generally ahead Of his party and his parti-
san friends, like comet among the Pleads.
He cultured the anti-slavery phantom until 1t
assumed the proportions Of giant in strength
aud intellect. He has taken hold of the pro-
temperance movement and Is waging war
against all beer drinkers and imbibers Of alco-
holio stimulants. He Is the recognized front,
so far as Massachusetts Is concerned, of the
so-called labor reform crusade, and finally,
In attacking Prussia, and through her all Ger
many, he plants poniard In the heart of the
republican party. Perhaps that is exactly
what he means. But If the end justifes the
means, and that end be the annlhilation Of the
republican phalanx, horse, foot and dragons,
the Boston agitator has taken step In the
right direction. We are of opinion, however,
that the republican leaders will not think
favorably of this anti-Teutonic operation oil
their eloquent but erratic ally. Trouble is
beginning in the republican camp.

THE .RoUaHs AT ROCHESTER, There was Al

APPEALING TO THE WRONG PLAoE.-A fell
low who stole somebody's watch was sent to a
place where watches are very scarce-Sing
Sing prison. The Assistant District Attorney
drew Judge Bedford's attention TO the fact that
this criminal boasted that he had political in
fuence sufficient in the District Attorneys g
Office to make it ''all right" for him. Where
upon the City Judge sentenced him to the
State prison for five years as an example to
his friends of the influence he exercised over
the District Attorney and the Court. This fol-
low, it seems, appealed to the wrong place for
succor. His associate thieves will probably
take the hint, and lean upon a stouter reed
than the DISTRICT Attorney iu future amiction,

Up TO SNUFF-While number of notorious
characters, including the Prince Of Erie, can
90 hazing around, emblazoned with diamonds
and costly jewels, without the danger of being
robbed or having their pockets picked, is it
not remarkable that such respectable gentle
men as the Mayor of Rochester and Sammy
Tilden are subject to the depredations of free
hooters who attend assemblages like that of
the late Democratic State Convention? His
Honor the Mayor Of Rochester, it is reported,
had his silver snuff box purloined from him
by some one of the New York city or Kings
county scamp followers, and Sammy Tilden
returned to the mahogany sideboard Of the
Manhattan Club minus his timekeeper.
"My watch is gone" said Samuel;
"Jess so--watches were made to 60"
This is altogether wrong. Our depredating
fellow citizens should ''let up" on such respect
able personages as the mayors Of cities and
the active geniuses of such highly aristocratic
associations as the Manhattan Club.
THE EMPEROR OF BRAZIL TO VISIT THE
UNITED SrArEs.-The Emperor Of Brazil is
coming to the United States-at least so our
Rio Janeiro correspondent informs u.s.
The object of his Majesty's visit Is for the pur-
pose of gathering information which many
prove useful in the administration of affairs in
the vast extent of country over which he rules.
Above all things Dom Pedro wants to learn
what are the effects of the abolition Of slavery
here, as there Is at present movement or
foot looking forward to the abolition Of slavery
in Brazil. Wa nope his imperial Majesty will
not fail to pay the United States visit pa
learn something Of Its institutions.

GENERAL BUTLER ON FIsHERMENs RIGHTS
General Butler represents in Congress the Fifth
district of Massachusetts,, and he is a candidate
for reelection. His constituents are directly
interested in tho Northeastern fisheries,
and, of course, he stands by their rights to
catch Goldfish one marine league from the
coast of the British provinces concerned.
He holds, as bis fishing constituents
hold, that the fishery treaty stipulations
give them the right to fish three miles from
the shore inside the bays all round the bonds
of the coast of said British seaboard
provinces, while the Blue Noses contend
that the treaty means that the Yankees
can fish only outside of line from head
land to headland. Says General Butler,
''If were q Cape Cod fisherman, and any
body intertered with my rights, I would
fight; and tell you, my friends, that the
first gun fired would give US these rights or
give us Canada" Of course this plain speak
ing was the very thing for the Cape Cod
fishermen, to whom 1t was addressed, and

Blundering Justice.

What has just happened on the Erie Rail-
road with regard to the trip to Rochester illus
trates very well the embarrassments that State
lines may cause to the administration of sm
pie justice, and shows also that Justice, even
when she does not conniye at the escape of
wrongdoers, Is apt to secure it by her very
clumsiness. Some rogues, 1t is clear, got
into the train that was prepared to take the
delegates to tho Democratic Convention at
"free lunch" principle; tickets were easily
had and passed from hand to hand, and the
thieves grabbed them as affording an opportu-
nifty to ply their trade. Pickpockets, it is
alleged, were active on the train, and outside
the train also, in the way Of depredations at
stations. At Susquehanna bridge it is re-
ported an adroit rogue snatched all the cash
from tho money drawer at a bar when it was
opened to make change for the many thirsty
democrats who were honestly paying for their
refreshments. But all these things were done
in the State of New York. No misconduct is
State of New Jersey, and it is certain that
what was done has been greatly ex exaggerated
and extravagantly overstated for the purpose
Of making q sensation on one hand and Of
making party capital on the other. What was
done, however, was bad enough, and such as
to make every good citizen desire to see the
scoundrels punished. But see how '.justice"
saves them. At the terminus in New Jersey
the police rush forward and arrest everybody.
They take honest men and all, and thus at
once secure for the rogues good company and
public sympathy. And when this stupid JUS
tice turns round to examine her case against
the rogues she has caught she finds she has
no jurisdiction-that every act complained
against was committed beyond her bounda-
ries. New Jersey means well in the matter of
Furnishing crime, and has strict ideas of the
enforcement of the laws, but her authorities
are incorrigibly stupid and wooden-headed.
What we would like to know is whether this
Jersey police saved these rOgues from the
hands of the New York police? How many
of his men familiarly acquainted with the
persons of our city rogues had Superintendent
Jourdan at the Erie boats to watch the arrival
of the desperadoes? Or was he so little pre-
pared to do his duty that he had none there !?
Did he have all his available men on special
service hunting for young democrats with
dark lanterns?

SECRET POLITICAL CLUBs.-The crop OF;
secret political clubs is becoming very promis-
ing. Old and young democrats are getting
them up, while the republicans are gathering
them in" like grim Death wherever they can
muster corporals guard in any Of the wards.
One democratic club, which was started in an
adjoining city couple of weeks ago. came to
grief the first week, to wit-the secretary was
sent to the State Prison for ten years for high
way robbery and the organizer had his pocket
picked before he left the room. These signs,
are very encouraging. The clubs cause the
money and whiskeY to aow profusely; but the
moral of the matter is rather questionable.

THE VICE Presidency FOR 1872.-Vice
President Colfax having withdrawn from the
canvass for the republican denomination for
thrown the weight of his influence in
favor of Attorney General Akerman Of
Georgia for the position, the Georgia papers
give their sentiments thereupon in their own
peculiar language. We give an extract upon
the subject from Georgia paper, rather
inimical, we imagine, to the proposed nomina.
tion. Akerman is probably President Grants
choice for Colfax's vacancy. He rather likes,
Akerman, and the ''nearest of kin is nearest
the throne" Perhaps the democracy may
have something to say on the subject.
