and feelings at all must necessarily have been
born in Europe, and imbued with European
ideas as TO the relative Importance of Euro
pean and of American questions. In
other words, the German element in
America is still, and from the cir
cumstances of the case still must be.
essentially a colonial element. This fact is
not discreditable, of course, to the German
element in America; but it is disadvantageous
both to that element and to the country. 1t
is q source of weakness to be overcome, not
a source of strength to be fostered. To
foster il as Mr.. Schurz and his associates do.
and as a certain number of American party
organs seem disposed to do, by going with it
in all its European enthusiasms, sympathies,
and ~antipathies, in its unhesitating moral
adhesion to the standards of an European
power in an European conflict, is to do an ill
service to the Germans themselves. and to
strike a damaging blow at the harmonious
and healthy evolution of American institu-
tons. Even the Germans themselves can see
this plainly enough in such a case, for
example, as that of the Orangeen, whom
insist, without any regard to the passions
and ~perturbations which their wilfulness may
provoke in the social order, upon Haunting
the banners of bygone European conflicts os-
tentatiously through our streets. No consid-
crate German citizen, we fancy, would ques-
ton the propriety of official interference,
within proper limits, to prevent the fighting
over again of the battle of the Boyne up and
down Broadway. Is it impossible, then, for
considerate German citizens to perceive how
sadly they derogate from the gravity and the
elevation of their duties and their rights as
Americans, when they give themselves up to
the sentimental excitements of q patriotism
from all the serious obligations of which they
have formally and voluntarily emancipated
themselves?

A BOHEMIAN IN VENICE.

!. Venice is not without her debating So
cieties, and the last one was started by a
painter and printer. Travellers OF late
have been solicited to look upon a bird
eye view Of the city of Venice; good
sight of which, and full explanation,
could be had for few coppers. A leg
worn Bohemian took chance, and when
it came to the explanations he took
another; for he disputed many OF the
statements made by the artist. He de-
MED that Shylock had tent upon the
Rialto, as it was represented in the pic
ture that he had; for he affirmed that
under the law of Venice no Jew could
build upon that mart. He proved that
the house which was pointed to IN
the painting as Othello's, was no such
thing for Othellos house was torn down
years ago, and small monument was erect
ed on the spot. The gentle Desdemona is
assigned for a homestead the palace OF
the Contarini Farans, which was probably
not built at the time she lived with the
Moor. All of which greatly startled the
people who had been accepting the birds
eye view for verify. The travelling
newspaper man, however, pretended that
he had the documents to sustain his OBJ
jections, and as he had been in Venice six
weeks picking up items, it is probable that
he has the papers.

Is the Louisville C0arier-Jouynal fully
informed about the action Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, with refer
ence to the gambling saloons at Saratoga?
Our information is that the association
made the same effort against John Nor
rissey's establishment that it did against
the smaller shops; and met with the same
success in driving the illegal practice out
of his house. It will be borne in mind in
this connection that the Young Men S
Christian Association based its action on
positive law of the State of New York,
which prohibits gambling, and not on any
notion which the gentlemen held that the
business was morally wrong and deserved
to be put down by them. They took the
law, and declared that they intended to
see that it was respected. The insinuation
that the Christian Association manifested
either Partially or weakness, is entirely a
Louisville idea, and one that Morrissey
will correct if it is referred to him.

Getting up Stairs.

Chicago is about to divorce her people
from the ground floor, and as this suit may
be Of interest in this locality it is just as well
to tell our folks how she proposes to do it.
The big reaper makers, Emerson & Co.,
are now building an elegant store which is
to be seven stories high. The assent and
descent from bottom to top, and from top to
bottom are to be made by new and perfectly
safe elevator which is to be kept in motion
day and night Rooms are to be fitted up
on each floor for offices, and every convent
ence is to be added which will allow a party
to reach the seventh story without trouble
or hazard. tits thought that this will create
a demand for the more elevated apartments,
as they will be quieter and more thoroughly
ventilated. Perhaps Emerson & Co. may
yet invent process by which the I" fourth
story back" will become the favorite Office
instead of the refuse. Let us wait.

General Sheldon has q hard nut to
crack when he deals with the Ptcaygne.
Because he said in his speech in the
Sixth District that public position be-
longed not color but to worth and
capacity, the Picayue muses. it up 50
that a great political declaration is made
to mean that colored men are to be ez-
Guided from Office. Whether our antique
friend understands the paragraph accord
ing to the manner he sets it forth, OF
whether he simply tried to make point
against good man by giving the wrong
construction to his language, it is i'm
possible for US to say; but whatever the
intention may have been, the result will
hardly pay. There is not sensible man
in this or any other community who will
refuse his full assent to the proposition
that the title to Office is, or ought to be,
founded On considerations of worth and
capacity. And when General Sheldon
announced the sentiment in Republican
club, mainly composed of colored men,
it was Endorsed by hearty assent from
every person present. As to his
desire to exclude black men from office,
or to degrade or slight them in any way
whatever, that suggestion is denied by bis
action in supporting colored men in their
ambition not only to vote, but to FL
positions Of trust. He has helped to put
black men in Office, which rather destroys
the suggestion Of the Picay0,e that he is
anxious to keep them out.

After a double rectifed and thrice dis
TILED application of Bourbon whisky policy,
the Louisville CourierJournal congratulates
the public that the Mobile Register is COM
ing around all right, and will soon be on the
proper level As honest John Forsyth has
been on that level before, perhaps he will
know the signals without being told. He
will have no difficulty in proving that he is
right. because all the necessary arguments
for the occasion can be found in the Mobile
REGISTER ,of ls66-67. But it is little sim
pular that the very position which the
Reois,cr was driven from in 1869 by the bit
+erness Of the Courier is the one which it is
now driven to reoccupy by the same news
naner. 1t therefore seems that John For
svth was right four years ago, through the
strength of his own judgment and that now
he is only right because his old opponent
has appropriated his old arguments and
forced him to bow to their force and justice
sucb are the eccentritities Of men who let
policy control honesty.

If Mr.. Booker and Mr.. Hamilton are
the jurors by which the Republicans are
to be tried, the party reserves its right to
challenge the pair, as being incompetent
by reason Of interest. As both Of these
gentlemen have been good Republicans,
and as both have been beaten by stronger
men, it might be suspected that their
Judgment against the men with whom
they have acted, and the principles which
they have endorsed, would be colored by
disappointment rather than by conviction.
The Times, therefore, will have to summon

q WHICH IS IT?

Fifty thousand dollars is the exact sum
which Mr.. P. L. Cable, the Democratic
candidate for Congress, in the Fourth
District of Illinois, has set apart to elect
himself with. He is big bond holder,
and the platform of his party is somewhat
confused as to whether it means that the
bonds shall be repudiated, or whether
they shall be paid in currency? Mr..
Cable expects to see about that little
movement, and he is prepared to see it
with fifty thousand dollars. The question
will be, if the Democrats succeed, whether
they elected Cable or fifty thousand dollars?
Several organs whose noses were turned
in extreme disgust at the bloated bond
holders have allowed their nasal protu-
berances to fall a degree in the presence
Of Cables nomination.
