made the phrase satire. It is forgotten by
the new Ministers that the first act of the
Republic on taking upon itself the power of
Che Empire was to assume also its bad quarrel.
The defeat of the Empire was no more the
dishonor of France than America. Germany
has really been the ally of the Republic the
ally that restored il by the destruction of the
Empire-and the rejoicings at Paris should
have been thus interpreted at home as they
have been abroad. Bismarck was eager for
peace after Sedan, but, like wise Minister
as he is, he refused to treat with the EN-
pire, because it was powerless to make
and guarantee treaty. Had the new
ministers met the Germans at once
with declarations Of the reputation of the
empire and of its unjust quarrel, truce aud
peace would have Immediately followed. Will

be will crush the republic at Paris as he
crumbled the empire at Sedan. Dare? This
united Germany dares do any act it Wills
and it is the surest protection and the great
est safety of France that this enlightened
nation dares do only that which it's free
people feel to be just and honorable. France
was owerless to prevent Napoleon and Oli-
vier from robbing, or attempting to rob,
Germany: but Germany is strong enough to
prevent King William and Bismarck from
destroying France, as they easily might if not
restrained by German sentiment and their own
reason and humanity.
The French people have seen all this before
their ministers have recognized it. They
have repudiated instinctivey the response
bility for the war. They have seen, intui
lively, as it were, the utter hopelessness OF
the struggle, and have abandoned it. If this
ministry and this government does not secure
peace-and that soon, too-it will be blotteC
out by the indignant people as unworthy o.
its high trust.

CAPITAL, LABOR, AND TARIFF.

If it were true that capital is hostile to
labor, the best and most conclusive evidence
of that hostility would be that while labor is
suffering capital should be prosperous But
what are the facts? Labor is suffering, that
no one denies. The workingmen of the
United States have never before been as
badly off as they are now. For their nomi-
nally higher wages procure for them less
comforts and necessaries, and those of poorer
quality, than their nOminally lower wages of
ten years ago. How is it with capital? The
wages of capital are the interest it bears.
Capital is well of when the rates of interest
are high; it suffers when the rates of interest
are low. And never since the foundation of
the republic has interest been as low as it
is now, and has been for the last two wears.
Leaving out of sight the occasional
''pinches" in the money market, brought
about by gambling combinations, and by
which legitimate capital never benefits, the
rates of interest have been for several years
past unprecedentedly low-so low, indeed,
that capital has frequently lain idle, and per-
sons depending for their income solely upon
interest on their capital have actually suf-
fered. Does this look as though capital bene-
fitted by the sufferings of labor? Does this
look as though they were hostile to one
another ? They are, instead, joint sufferers
by the same evil. The radical monopolists'
rule is ruinous alike to capital and labor. No
wonder their organs cease to foster the foolish
belief that capital is hostile to labor. No
wonder they seek to divide their victims to
fan their quarrels, and thus prevent them
from uniting against their common oppressor.
- When Congress tells the 'iron ring" that
for every ton of iron that they make they
may charge cost, interest, reasonable profit,
| and nine dollars gold extra on each ton, they
! give the iron ring present of eighteen mil
| lions of dollars gold annually. Where does
| it come from? The entire product of the
whole country is annually divided-or should
| be-between capital and labor. Capital gets
its interest, and labor-whether the labor of
the manager, the foreman, or the poorest
workman, labor gets its wages. Out of these
two, interest and wages, the eighteen million
dollars gold of the iron ring has to be paid.
There is nothing else to pay it out of No
sophistry of the protectionists can alter the
fact, that every dollar legislated into the
| pockets of the iron ring has to be paid by
/ capital and labor jointly, has to be deducted
out of interest and wages. Laboring men
readily understand how they are made to pay
their share-in the increased cost of every
thing they buy. But capitalists-not much

PEACE THE LAST RESORT OF FRANCE
From the NJ Y. Tribune.


From the NJ Y. Tribune.
All the declarations of the French Ministers
are of war. All the acts of the French people
are of peace. Paris rejoiced over Sedan as
over great victory-the triumph of repub-
licanism over imperialism-the nation over
the despot. All parties, in capital and coun-
try, fraternized over the news of a crushing
defeat, and reproaches were uttered only for
the dead contemplate thing that was the en-
pire. Its old officials gave place with
alacrity, if not with positive pleasure, to the
new ones who represented the rejuvenated
republic. The new found no time from their
present duties in restoring the nation in
which to persecute the old officials for their
past offenses in destroying it. Palikao sur
rendered the War Ministry of the empire
only to assume the command of q corps of
the army of the republic. The Governor of
Paris under the empire at once became the
virtual dictator of France under the republic.
The National Guard fixed laurel sprigs, not
bayonets, on their guns The officers of the
Garde Mobile ceased enrolling their recruits,
to resign their commissions; and the soldiers
of the reserves-there are no longer
any actives-mutinied and threw away their
weapons Everywhere in France there was
peaceful revolution, and with the republic
there was born the first hope of peace with
the invaders.
IL IS only the ministers who seem insane
enough to contemplate a renewal of the con-
fiict. The Rost remarkable declaration of
this purpose to resist the Prussian advance is
the circular of Jules Favre 1t is the mani
festo of a Ministry which does not know the
state of the public palse, and does not feel
secure of its own position or certain of its
own policy. We do not, for this reason,
attach the fullest importance to it. We be-
lieve it to be the declaration of atemporizing,
not a positive policy. 1t can never be a
policy SO fixed that circumstance shall not
soon brush it away. No one knows half so
well as the author the vanity of the threats
he employs, the fallacy of the hopes he in
spires, the impractieability of the terms he
requires The circular demands that the con-
quering army which holds France bound as a
captive shall turn back, abandoning all it has
gained, on the simple assurance, by an I'M
established administration, that the policy of

SOME CAUSES OF FRENCH DISASTER.

From the ~ Y. Times.
The enormous sums Of money which had
been expended by the French for the purpose
of placing their army on war footing de-
ceived very many, and the Emperor among
the rest, into the belief that France was ready
to cope with any military power whatever,
and hence he was prompt in seizing an OPP
portunity for declaring war with Prussia
The result, however, has shown that the
French were actually unprepared, either for
an offensive or defensive war, while the
plan of the Prussian campaign was such as
not only to take advantage of this want of
preparation, but also to gain the benefit
which could be obtained from the weaknesses
of the French military system without afford
ing an opportunity for the display of any of
its well known good points.

acquiring BROADER and more extensive
views Of business and social life, and
that knowledge Of the world and its

Such is the character of visit TO the

The people here, arc fully alive to

of interests, and refer to their Acade-

of their Banks, their Phosphute works
and crowded hotels, their railroads and

To an unbiased mind, although not
fully concurring in their. enthusiastic
vices, there are signs Of Improvement

to those interested in the welfare of our

of the business houses and the opinion
