THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL COMMIT
TEE assembled in solemn conclave yesterday
at the national capital, and, in spite Of the
weather, coolly congratulated themselves on
the prospect of obtaining majority in the
Congressional delegation in the House ct the
next elections. The strongest argument in
favor Of this hope that the despatch commu-
ncates is that the present committee has
already distributed more documents than any
of its predecessors had done in the same
lapse of time. This is good news for printers;
and if among the multiplicity Of Dem. Docs.
the worthy pundits of the party have really
turned over new leaf they may do all that
they anticipate. But without thicker paper
than the last they used, and clearer charac-
ters stamped on it for the benefit of the right
men in the right place, their mass of printed
matter will prove TO be but a burden to the
mails.

THE MURDER FIEND seems to have Boon LET
loose In good earnest for this year of our
Lord 1870 Abroad Europe reeks with
Slaughter here private violence and assas-
sination rage unchecked. Another whiskey
massacre is reported from up the Hudson at 8
point opposite Yonkers. A pleasure party,
forsooth, from Paterson, N. j., stormed tho
Malakoif Of gin mill at that locality yester-
day, and were treated TO "a little more
grape than they bargained for at the mouth
OF the barkeeper's pistol; whereupon, with
the courage which always distinguishes
mob attacking single man, they proceeded
to mako 'hash" OF the barkeeper's head.
That poor wretch is at the point Of death, and
II the laws be but decently administered In
this case that is where his assaiauts also soon
will be. Why should the fendish ATTEMPT t.
commit wilful murder be deemed, when clearl
proved, any less q crime than the actual d..
struction Of lifer Public safety demands the
EXTREMIST rigor of protection against tho
growing rufianism Of the time. Short shrift
and stout rope.

HIGH TIMES IN NORTH CAROLINA have come
again to diversity the sultry heats Of August.
Judge Mitchell, of the Supreme Court, has
enjoined the treasurer and the gubernatorial
paymaster from discharging the dues claimed
by Governor Holden's troops; and the pri-
soners recently released by Judge Brooks had
an immense ovation yesterday at Raleigh,
with flags, wreaths and garlands, speeches,
music and professions. national salute Of
thirty-six guns made the welkin ring. The
United States flag was cheered by great
concourse of former confederates, and the
women and children were quite as enthusi-
astic as the men. Judge Brooks, the ex-
prisoners and the habeas corpus act were
heartily cheered and the motto all round was
''forgive and forget" There is nothing like
the sober second thought in communities, as
among individuals, and the sold North State
has never lacked wise heads and good hearta.

YACHTING.

Bat Few Yachts Remaining mt NcwpOrt-
Preparations for tho Races of Next Month
An Exciting Season Expected.
NEWPORT, August Is, 1870.
Only few yachts remain In the harbor, the major
ity having left yesterday to mako preparations for
the race announced to come on early next month.
The contests anticipated with the deepest interest,"
1t Is generally believed that the capacities OF tho
competing vessels will be brought to an excellent
test The Idler, just or the ways, looks In trim.
here is the subject OF much conversation In yacht
ing circles. The Sappho left here to-day Tor New

keel, which was injured at Edgartown. Shortly
after her departure dense fog prevailed. The
DauntlesS Is to have new foremost. The races to
come or from this port to and around Block Island

exciting OF the whole season.

The FALL TRADE.-Our merchants and
business people of all pursuits have lively ex-
pectations Of brisk fall trade this season,
aud the signs Of the times are very encourage
ing. The war in Europe will certainly enlarge
the demand abroad for our breadstuTs and pro-
visions, and the general prosperity Of the
country has been and continues to be such as
to warrant greatly increased amount of bust
ness in what is known as the fall trade of our
great seaport cities, beginning with New York.
Ia word, we expect for New York very
brisk fall season; and, looking at our adver-
Using columns, it is apparent that our fall
business has already commenced and will
soon be in full BIAS.

enemy to dictate what form OF government
they shall have or who shall be their ruler
And would it not be a most dangerous expert
ment for the Prusslans to make to say what
shall be the government or who shall DO the
ruler Of Franco ?
Inundated as France may be, that proud
and great nation could not endure such dlcta-
ton. Should Prussia wish to re-establlsh the
Orleans dynasty that very fact, probably,
would deter the French from accepting o
monarch of the Orleans family. If even an
Orleans prince could be forced upon them at
the point of the bayonet it is not likely he
would remain long upon the throne after the
Prussians left. A regency with the Prince
Imperial for future emperor would hardly
satisfy the Prussians, who have declared so
emphatica ly against the Bonapartes. A pro-
visional government, perhaps, is the only one
treat with Prussia. But here the Prussians
would be in dilemma again. A provisional
government might lead to republic, and that
is not what King William and the Prussian
aristocracy want or would like to see.
A republican government in France might
shake the throne Of Prussia and the
other monarchios Of Europe. The fires
Of the first French revolution and repub-
lie might be lighted again and set all Europe
in blaze. Then, indeed, France might take
revenge upon Prussia for the humiliation she
is enduring. There is no doubt the dynasties
of Europe dread such contingency springing
from the present war. The question of the
future government of France is surrounded
with great difficulties, and it will take all the
skill of Bismarck, as well as of the Powers Of
Europe, to manage this delicate matter AS
for the people, the sooner they dispense with
the crowned heads, who plunge them into war
continually from personal and ambitious
motives, and establish republics based upon
nationality, the better. Fearful as the effects
of the present war are good may grow out of
it, for the people may become enlightened as
to the evils of monarchy and may learn to
govern themselves.

The Quarantine War.

The proposed arrest of DR.. Carnochan and
his deputies for the seizure of vessel caught
violating the quarantine laws shows what out
RACES may be attempted in the name of legal
redress when the administration of Justice is
in the hands of men who study only how to
distort it. The proposition to arrest an honor
| able officer Of the law for the honest discharge
OF his duty is an act Of the same nature as
that of the ruffian or bravo who strikes his
murderous blow at the functonary who sur
prises him in the commission of crime. 1t
is the same blow counted upon to intimidate
the official and purchase immunity for offences,
and the act is none the less fragrant defiance
of law because il emanates from merchant
and has the countenance of judge. The pa
pers in this case ara reported as issuing from
Judge Pratt of Brooklyn, who, it will b.
remembered, is the Judge that did what was
possible to defeat the suits of District Attor-
ney Morris against the vioators of law in the
last election. 1t seems with him congenial
pursuit to WELD the power Of his Office,
not in the interest of law and JUS
tice, but in the interest of whoever
would violate both. The people have vital
stake in this case 1t is the effort Of traders
with unhealthy ports to disembarrass the M
selves of quarantine. They would bully the
Health Officer from the discharge of his duties
in order that they may bring yellow fever into
this city just as it was brought into Phla-
delpha. We find this fault with the Health
Oficer-he has not enforced the law against
these men with sufficient sringency. AS we
understand the quarantine laws they give to
the Health Officer an immense power for their
own enforcement, and, rightly used, will render
it impossible for any man to violate them with
impunity. These Messrs. Pendergast and
the captain Of the Wavelet are parties to q
crime that the law Furnishes with one year in
the State Prison and fine of two thousand
dollars. If the Messrs. Pendergast want to
violate the law why shall they not pay these
fines, and why should they not mediate new
schemes Of resistance in the wholesome air of
