CONSISTENCY. There is q sense in Which
consistency is equity, impartialty and a true
jewel. If negro suffrage is blessing, it
ought to be extended to Massachusetts as well
as to South Carolina. If one State should be
prevented by the bayonet or the fear of recon
struction from restricting suffrage, SO should
another. A proposition for an educational or
property Tux in Tennessee brings threats at
once from the Massachusetts Congressman.
Yet IN Massachusetts to day Fifteenth
Amendment or no Fifteenth Amendment
negroes are not allowed TO vote unless thcy
first pay taxes and can read and write And
thus Massachusetts, sanity, Puritan, Abo-
litionist, Radical Massachusctts-has man
aged to drive from the polls nearly every ne.
gro. Most of the carpct.baggers in our midst
came down here from there to peddlc their
wares, get Office and fill their carpet.sacka. -
They pretend to love the negro as well as the
people from whom they came. But, if the
Massachusetts, people would take away the
suffrage, why trust their carpct.b bag wanderers
as any better than tho folks "to hum 7' The
truth is that States always did pay more at.
tention to the morals of other people than to
it's own. The Pharisees see notes ia others

They pretend to believe in God, and worship
Baal They sniffle over tho importance of
the ten commandments, and covet and receive
stolen goods

The Franco-Prussian war has taught the
world one thing among it's many bitter and
severe lessons, and that is that irregular
troops, raised from the people, can do more
splendid fighting and exhibit more endurance
in many cases than soldiers Of the line.
Instance the conduct of the Prussian landwehr
at the battle among the villages before Metz on
the 18th, as described in our dispatches On
Friday, in the terrible bayonet fight with the
troops of Bazaine. Sullen and stubborn, they
advanced upon the French batteries, although
the mitrailleuses and Chassepots were moving
them down by hundreds. They drove the
French gunners from their guns, forced them
back into the villages, and, fighting ''like
DEVILS" as the French did, in the narrow
streets, the landwehr soldiers, with inexor-
able Stride" annihilated them with the
bayonet.
But it is not on the Prussian side alone that
the admirable fighting Of irregular troops was
manifested. In many Of the late sorties from
the intrenchments at Paris the Garde Mobile
outdid the soldiers of the line in persistent
bravery, and on more than one occasion main
tanned their ground under tremendous fire
when the regular troops broke. This proves
the value Of training the people to military
duty. The Prussian military system has
attested its excellence by the conduct of the
landwehr on all these bloody fields. The
Garde Mobile, too, has shown what the people
can do in an emergency in defence Of their
country. Our National Guard might learn q
good lesson from the efficiency OF the people,
| armies of Prussia and France.

TIE REPUBLICAN, GRNERAL COMMITTEE
met In their rooms last night to make friends
with those party men who had accepted ofice
under Tammany. The proposition was to
rcscind the resolution passed recently read
ing out all such mercenary republicans, but
it was apparent before the meeting proceeded
very far that the non-holders Of fat ofices
were too indignant to compromise, and, being
virtuous themselves and determined not to
hold any Office under Tammany, they would
not allow any pretender to virtue to have
cakes and ale or hold such Offices. In fact,
there was q row highly characteristic Of the
party Of great moral ideas, and the meeting

! Tho Progress or tho War-Tho SOrtis n
Our special dispatches and other regular
kilograms unite to-day In confirming the report
of General Trochu's brilliant sortie OF Wednes-
day last, although, so far, but few additional
details have been received AS one result OF
it, however, the Prussians at Orleans, who
were going South to strike the army Of the
Loire, have evacuated that city, after sharp
fight, in which the French gained great suc-
cesses, and are falling back on the invested
lines about Paris. We shall probably hear Of
other detachments more remote from Paris
being also recalled. II must be remembered
that their recall relieves the French volun-
teers in the provinces and gives them an
opportunity not only to organize. but to strike
the rear of the investing line in FORCE The
solution of the war lies at Paris. For the
Prussians to raise the siege Of the capital
or to be effectually defeated by the besieged
garrison, would be virtual ending Of the war
in favor of France for all France will fall upon
them like hungry bloodhounds If they suffer
demoralizing reverse. A retreat from before
the walls Of Paris, harassed as 1t would be by
Franc-tireurs, by the peasantry, those unor-
ganized legions Of France, and by the immense
army Of Trochu, would be more disastrous
than the Moscow retreat Of Napoleon. It
would sweep away all the glories and gains of
Woerth, Gravelotte and Sedan. Prussia must
therefore concentrate all her efforts again upon
the capture Of the city-a task that looms up
now far more arduous and difficult than ever.
Our Versailles telegraphic correspondence,
dated before the sortie, states that the sharp
shooters in the French lines and the heavy guns
upon the French forts keep up q deadly
fire upon the besiegers, and that the shells
from Mont Valerien especially are aimed with
telling accuracy. The Prussian siege guns
are still delayed, the troops were getting
anxious to commence the bombardment and
although food was not scarce at present
there was general feeling Of uneasiness and
insecurity at the contemplation Of the long
line of communication over which the food
must come The calculations Of war are some
times very uncertain. 1t was not in the plan
Of Won Moltke when he sat down to starve
Paris out that he himself should risk starva-
ton, nor did he expect while preparing to
lombard Paris that Paris would first lombard
him.
The siege of Metz continues to present a
spectacle of heroic resistance that has long
been unparalleled. Provisions are said to be
plentiful inside, except bread and salt The
siege operations at scissors and verdun have
commenced, and vigorous opposition has been
developed. Throughout France the popular
spirit is aroused by the recent successes. Gam
beta, with his young blood, is infusing new
life into the organization of the volunteers, and
everything indicates that hope and confidence
have been revived in the beautiful France that
a few days ago lay paralyzed at the feet Of her
enemy.

ANOTHER CANDIDATE FOR SPAIN.-An in
timation comes from London that Prince
Amedee Due dAoste, a son of Victor
Emanuel Of Italy, has accepted the throne Of
Spain. 1t seems probable from this that
Victor Emanuel who SO skilfully outma-
nGuvred republcanism in Italy, by accepting
the quarrel that republicanism was waging
against Rome, is inclined to strengthen his
hands by an alliance with Spain, where repub-
licanism has been eclipsed by similar maneu-

MAP OF THE SEAT OF WAR-We have
heretofore limited ourselves in the preparation
OF our war maps to the more immediate scene
Of hostilities; but now that the war is being
waged and that armies are in movement over
the whole territory of France, from Metz, on
the east, to the region west Of Paris, and from
the French fortresses on the Belgian frontier
down to Lyons, on the Mediterranean, it has
become necessary, for the understanding Of
those tremendous military operations, to pub
fish complete map Of France. This we do
to-day, and our readers would do well to pre-
serve it for daily reference during the continu-
ance of the war

BLOOD Is THICKER THAN WHARF.-THE En-
press Of Austria, who is a Bavarian, is very
proud Of the bravery displayed by her country
men in the present German war with France,
and it is said that there is but little pity in
the imperial house of Austria for the fallen
Emperor, who was the cause of the untimely
and violent death of the accomplished Maximi-
Liam and Of the sad misfortunes Of s'poor
Carlota." Thus time at last makes all
sninge even"

THE LAST OF THE YELLOW FEVER.
panic which temporarily existed at Governor
Island appears to have exhausted itself by the
decline of the disease. Only two cases of
yellow fever occurred there within the past
few days. There is no report Of the pesti-
lence spreading in this city or in Brooklyn,
and those whQ might have been alarmed have
come to look upon the danger as entirely
passed. The prompt and ample means pro-
vided by the Health Officer of the Port for the
removal Of the sick out Of reach of the city to
the salubrious little island Of West Bank
saved us from every chance Of the oontagion
spreading. The patients at West Bank are
well cared for by the able Superintendent AN
official of long experimental the unremit-
ting attention Of DR.. Carnochan and his assist
ants, Drs. Reid, Mosher and Mccartney. We
may safely calculate, then, that we have seen
the last of the yellow fever. What the Quaran-
tine officials SO vigorously began Jack Frost
will finish The latter, after all, is the best
sanitary officer.

THE Holy FATHER A PROTESTANT. The last
order of the Pope before the occupation of Rome
by the Italian army was letter to the COM
mander Of the Papal troops, General Kanzler,
in which the Holy Father said :-"General,
now that great sacrilege and the most enor-
nous injustice is about to be contaminated,
and the troops Of Catholic king, without
provocation, without even the shadow Of any
motive whatever, surround and besiege the
capital Of the Catholic world, feel, in the first
place, the necessity Of thanking you, Signor
General, and all troops" &C., and that Gin re-
gard to the duration Of the defence it is my
duty to order that this shall consist merely in
a protest, such as to render violence neces-
sary, and no more-that is, to open negotia-
tons for the surrender as soon as breach is
made" This protest, therefore, was the last
act of the Pope, which makes him Protes-
tant In surrendering his temporal kingdom
Is this not the beginning Of that good time
coming, when all the people of the Christian
world will be Catholics and all Professionals?
Who can tell?

original Quarterly still Hourlshes, and reveals
all the vigor Of its youth, keeping its place
proudly at the head Of its almost countless
offspring Boston has just cause to be proud
of her literary journals, and so too has New
York. 1t is q gratifying sign Of the times
that all over the Union taste for the higher
class Of magazine literature is revealing itself
more and more.
Now that we are rapidly recovering from
the effects of the war, that our wealthy
Glasses and consequently our men Of leisure
are 80 rapidly multiplying, 1t will surprise us
II our periodical literature In Its higher forms
does not take o new start. There is GER
tainly great room for Improvement. But
scholarship and literary ability are not want
ing In the midst of us. A little more encour-
mont on the part Of the public, and little
more liberality on the part of our great pub
fishers, would soon make the review literature
Of America quite equal to that of Great Britain.
Tho Coolio slave Trade.
The account which we published yesterday
with regard to the arrival Of coolie ships from
China, from our correspondent at Honolulu.
reveals terrible story concerning the coolie
system. The horrors Of the Middle Passage
in the days Of the African slave trade do not
exceed the miseries suffered by these unfortu-
nate Cinnamon, who are exported from China,
not as slaves, but as emlgrants hired out to
voluntary labor. 1t appears that over six
hundred coolies were packed in one ship,
which arrived at Honolulu from Macao; that
they were slowed away between decks in
space of sixteen inches to each individual.
They were cruelty whipped, kicked and cuffed
by the sentries placed over them. The tor
ture became so uncomfortable that many of
them jumped into the sea and were drowned
Shut up in the miserable pen between decks,
they endured unspeakable pangs of hunger and
thirst. These facts are communicated by an
officer Of the ship, the Dolores Ugarte, Captain
Saul commanding, whose name should be
known to the world.
The appearance Of the unfortunate coolies
when they were landed on the Sandwich
Islands is described as most deplorable.
Many of them were mere skeletons, and many
were devoured by disease If this is the kind
of emigration we are to expect from China
humanity demands that the system should be
at once looked into by our government and by
all civilized nations. 1t is the slave trade
over again, with apparently no difference in
the cruelty Of its Details although the victims
are nominalIy voluntary emigrants. We have
taken active measures occasionally to check the
abuses prevalent in the emigrant ships from
the ports of Europe, and we have succeeded
in great measure in rendering the emigrant
more comfortable and the female passengers
comparatively safe from the outrages which
were at one time too frequent in the steerage.
If the emigration from China is to continue by
thousands, as no doubt it is, the government
should adopt such measures of protection to
the coolie as will prevent anything like these
scenes on board the Dolores Ugarte occurring
to Chinese emigrants bound to any Of our
ports.

Christopher North poured forth in exhaustless
prof,sion his wit and humor. To the influ-
ence Of the EdSn6urgh are we largely indebted
for that second Augustan age Of English litera-
ture-an age which could boast of such
names as Byron, Scott, Coleridge, Charles
Lamb, Thomas de Quincy, Shelly, Keats,
and many more. The influence Of those lite
rary forces soon told in this country. We had
not been wanting In magazine literature since
the days Of Franklin's Historical Chronicle
1t was not, however, until 1915, when was
established the North american Reoiew, that
we had national review worthy of the
name. Its success, though not equal to
that Of the Edinburgh, was great. On a
smaller scale it was the history of
the Edinburgh repeated. 1t advocated
judicious reforms; it gathered around It
the best talent of New England; it inspired
the rising youth Of Harvard and Yale; and,
as had been the case with Its great prototype,
its offspring became its rivals. Among its
and Claiming and Dana, the Everetts, Sparks,
Bowen, Peabody and Lowell. Around it and
its little sister, the atlantic Monthly, have
grown up such men as Emerson, Long
fellow, Prescott, Motley and Holmes-men
who have added new glories to the English
language Time would fail to tell of the
Southern Quarterly, OF the Bi6liotheca Sacra,
or the Princeton Pcpi~-c and others Suffice
it 70 aay that here. as IN Great Britain. the
