tions the English language. or, TO use his own
words, Through America England is speak
ing to the world"
10 sum up what we have said: All the
movements of the present tend to unity. The
most potent of the forces are English speaking.
The English speaking forces are represented
by Great Britain and the United States.
Hand in hand they are going for
ward, though somewhat unconsciOnsly, to
universal empire. Meanwhile it is common
triumph and a common gain, and the nations
are envious. So far as man can now judge
Great Britain and America are to make an end
OF the Babel curse-confusion and division.
1t is great, mighty honor, an honor never
given to people or a language before; but
who can say what terrific rivalry may reveal
itself in the future for absolute and universal
empire3 We do not, perhaps, go too far when
We allow ourselves to say that England is
greater out Of England than in it, and that If
the world is to become an English speaking
unit the worlds centre is much more likely
to be New York than London.

The Department of Docks.

The new Charter. in creating Department
hitherto sadly neglected part in our city gov
crnment. 1t is one of the most glaring short
comings Of municipal administration that there
Is not from one end to the other of the water
front Of this great commercial city single
first class wharf Just such rude piers as
fisherman might build in front Of his little
shanty are all that this city has to accommo-
date the commerce of the world There Is a
framework of timber filed in with loose
stone, and nothing more. When the timber
rots the city authorities seem to say, in their
conduct, let it rot. When 1t rots so that the
pier breaks down and the tide comes over it,
and, instead of convenience to shipping, it
becomes an obstruction to navigation, the
authorities regard it with the same easy indif-
ference. But the provision of the now Charter
seems to promise that this will be otherwise in
the futare, and that the docks shall be taken in
hand with energetic purpose. The words of
the law declare that ''there shall be Depart
ment of Docks, the head of which shall be a
board, consisting of five persons, residing in
the city of New York, to be appointed by the
Mayor, who shall hold Office for the term of
five years, and shall possess such powers
and perform such duties and receive such
compensation as shall be established and
defined by the Commissioners of the
Sinking Fund of the city of New York, and who
may, in the performance of such duties, expend
annually for the repair or reconstruction of the
wharves, piers and slips of said city not moro
than three hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars" Here is ample authority to do all that
may be considered necessary for putting the
wharves in proper condition. Exactly what
shall be done was no doub. purposely left open
for consultation between the commissioners
and the officers named, because the ground is
comparatively new, as the care of the wharves
has hitherto been the charge of a mere bureau
in the Street Department. We cannot suppose
that the gentlemen who are, In virtue of their
Office, to give direction to the labors Of the new
board will stand in the way Of any wise plan
for improving the docks. With the money to-
which the expenditure is limited much may be
done; and, since the words of the law will per-
haps be regarded as standing appropriation,
the commissioners are not likely to be often
out Of funds
The New York herald., 1870-04-10


We publish this morning, from our special
correspondent with the expedition. full particu-
lars OF the progress 50 far made by the ex'
ploring parties on the Isthmus Of Darien. AS
we expected, the labor has been arduous and
disagreeable; but it was not to be supposed
that in the Cordilleras of the Andes journey
ing would prove otherwise Commander Sell
fridge and surveying party, numbering
nearly one hundred men, crossed the noun
tain to the Sucubu river in four hours, guided
by Indians OF the east coast. We regret to
say that the trip demonstrated the incorrect
ness of Osborne and DIR. Cullen in their state
ments regarding depression Of the Cordil-
leras-a small plain which the latter gentle
man claims to have discovered. Nothing of
the kind was seen. In addition, his charts
and maps have been proven unreliable as re-
CARDS localities and the course Of rivers.
While admitting that this is unfavorable
we do not regard the prospect as in any sense
discouraging. 1t will be noticed that the route
pursued by Commander Selfridge is the same
one which has been traversed by previous ex-
plorers. From tho two other surveying par
ties we hope much and We shall be disap-
pointed If they do not discover feasible route
for canal That it will be route requiring
an immense amount of work we have no
doubt, but we are sanguine that the pro-
ject is not too gigantic for realization. 1t
must be borne in mind that all that is now
sought is depression Of the Cordilleras on
this side of the isthmus which will admit Of
an open cut and obviate the necessity for tun-
nelling. Can this depression be found? Does
it exist? We feel hopeful that it can and that
it does. At any rate, the question of its exist
ence will, we are assured, be fully and finally
settled by the present expedition.
The details of movements of the vessels and
explorers our letters describe in graphic and
interesting form. The voyage of the storeship
Guard, the arrival of the feet at Caledonia
Bay, the powwows with Indians, who are
friendly though much opposed to the canal
project; the trip across the mountains and
the voyage to Carthagena in quest Of laborers,
are all narrated accurately and pleasantly,
and will convey to the reader much informa-
ton regarding the tropics as well as of the
great work performing.

TIE ASn-sLAvEEY SOCIETY attempted to
die yesterday, but for some unseeinly reason
deferred giving up the ghost until to-day 1t
had its last words partly on its lips and might
have spoken them with considerable sclat
yesterday, and by this time we might have
hoped it would be quietly in its grave. II bas
been all its life vain, conceited member of
society. 1t has put down to its own credit the
great reform that our great civil war brought
forth, and has not near 80 much claim to II "a
the original firers Of the Southern heart, such as
William L. Yancey and jeff Davis. In fact the
latter, working inversely, achieved the very
work that the Anti-Slavery Society has puiled
itself up for doing All the anti-slavery socie-
ties in the world would never have abolished
slavery nor commenced the war, which ended
in abolishing it without having been COM
menced for that purpose, had not the Southern
politicians conceived aud attempted to carry out
the idea of separate Southern nationality. So
let the Anti-Slavery Society after 1t dies to-day
keep quiet in its grave, and no longer attempt
to steal the bright record Of the Northern
soldiery and the few laurels that are forcibly
bound about the brows Of Yancey and Davis.

THE 1NEBRIATEs AsYLuM-The asylum for
inebriates at Binghamton has large appro-
Priation from the public purse for its support
every year, and It is said, nevertheless, to
be managed altogether in the interest Of some
few of the persons in charge. Hence there is
proposition now before the Legislature to ap-
point trustees on behalf of the State. This is
opposed on the ground that appointing trus-
tees would iaske it political institution, and
the gentleman who srgues thus holds that the
asylum might better fe,,,nquish the State ap-
preparation than accept Sta..s management
1t ought, then, to have this priviles~' ZOE Ger
tanly the State should not support any in- ''i'u-

Palm Sunday services in tho Churches.

Palm Sunday Services in tho Churches.
Lent draws to close. To-day we enter
upon Holy Week, commemorating the entrance
of Christ into Jerusalem. In the Catholic and
Episcopal churches the ceremonies will be
solemn and imposing, and although the
evangelical denominations do not observe the
day and week with the same strictness, they
will not fail to pay to the occasion that respect
which 1t demands. During this week was
enacted the greatest and grandest drama that
ever occurred on earth since the creation for
within the next seven days, more than eighteen
hundred years ago, was witnessed the cruci-
fixion OF our Saviour. Undoubtedly many Of
the sermons preached in our churches this day
WILL be devoted to this subject. It is one
which has more of interest to the Christian
than any other. 1t is the story of the sacrifice
by means Of which man can be redeemed and
the gates of heaven opened to him.
We need hardly say, without regard to par
ticular denominations, that Palm Sunday is one
on which all persons protesting the Christian
faith should go to church. We can never suf
"S'Sh''J A'hPiSoo upVu OuT ulIuo luc SIuuucul
of the sacrifice which placed the Son of God
upon the cross Let, therefore, all our readers
attend divine worship this day. There is
much Of irreligion in our midst; men seek
false gods and worship them. The true, the
pure, the only faith by which salvation can be
attained has not as many votaries as il should
have. People who are only nominally Christians
are not Christians at all. There are many who
believe in God, because they dare not doubt
His existence, through fear of His power, but
who are Indifferent to the Son. Let these
attend the churches and hear the story of His
life. 1t will do them good. 1t will teach
them to appreciate Him who came upon earth
to die for men, and from this appreciation will
spring that true religious faith which has
given to us a civilization founded on the
gentler virtues, revealed to us many of the
mysteries Of nature which paganism could not
fathom and almost shown us heaven itself.
