OUR MISSION TO TURKEY.
al

CTO7b Ute W. L HOTu
With his usual good sense and fine regard
to the public service, President Grant has
selected the moment when an American Min
lister in Constantinople might possibly be
useful to the cause of humanity to show his
contempt for the Office by giving it away, as
he might matchbox or a pair of sleeve
buttons, to the son-in-law of the Pennsyl-
vania Senator with whom he goes trout
fishing in the Alleghenies.
We already have minister in CONSTANT
nople-Mr. Morris, of Pennsylvania, an edu-
Gated and accomplished man, and Republi-
can, originally appointed by President Lin
coin, whose residence of nine years in the
Ottoman capital has given him opportunities
for acquiring certain degree of that per-
sonal influence which is the only real means
of usefulness in the countries of the East
Mr. Morris is respected and liked by the lead
ing personages of the Sublime Porte. He has
been in Turkey long enough to know what
things can be and what things
cannot be achieved by an American diplo-
matist near the person of the Sultan.
Although Turkey is in nowise responsible for
any excesses which may have been COM
mitted by fanatical rayahs in Roumania
upon the Jews of that country, and although
it is quite certain that whatever authority
the Porte retains in her half-emancipated
provinces will have been exerted long ere
this for the protection of its Hebrew
subjects, it is very probable that good
might be done by such calm and well-con-
sidered representations as might be made
to The Government of Stamboul by we'll
known and respected American envoy. In
stead of instructing Mr.. Morris to make such
representations, President Grant avails HIM
self of the first vague rumors of trouble on
the Danube to remove this capable envoy,
and to slip into his place an untried man, of
whom nothing is known but that he is a
rural lawyer from Pennsylvania, and that he
has married the daughter of Mr.. Simon
Cameron.

THE SEVENTH REGIMENT SET RIGHT
IN BROTHERLY LOVE.

FROM Uae NJ 4. HeTdh
The gentlemen of Philadelphia, repre-
sented by some of the leading merchants,
bankers, iSterGti, military men, professors,
and editors of the Quaker City, have done
themselves justice, and ignored the paltry
parsimony and discourtesy of clique of the
local authorities there by inviting our noble
Seventh to tarry with thers for twenty-four
hours on their trip to Cape May in the second
week of July.
ShaftesbuTy once wrote that ''the taste for
beauty and the relish for what is decent Just,
and amiable perlects the character of the
gentleman and the philosopher; and the study
of such a taste or relish will ever be the great
employment and concern of him who covets
as we'll to be wise and good as agreeable and
polite. Put that in your pipes and Whit it
gently, oh curmudgeons who voted against
the public reception of our New York boys
in gray, with the banner of red, white, and
blue. When you see their forms and faces
and hear the manly cadence of their step as
they march through Chestnut street to the
Emusic of the Union," performed by the
finest band in the world, you will feel that
Sam Weller's ''double million magnifer'
miscroscope would not adequately measure
the litteness of your recent record. But to
the good men and true who have redeemed
the title of ''Brotherly Love" by their grace
full and well timed compliment, New York
sends festive, hearty greeting ''Were't the
last drop in the well, etc, etc,

struction Committee had given adequate ex-
preston, was overruled.
But the end, apparently, was still as far
off as ever. Once more the subject reverted
to the Reconstruction Committee. There it
rests-not we believe, because of the inac-
tion or indeeision of that body, but because
of the obstacles to action in the House itself.
Some excuse for delay may have existed
pending the Senatorial investigation into
certain proceedings of Governor Bullock,
against when, however, nothing has been
shown that should sway the decision of a
question with which by his official position he
is connected. There is no evidence that he
seeks an unfair advantage, or that his aims
are otherwise than in harmony with those of
the great body of the Georgia Republicans.
He has neither asked nor desired an extern
sion Of his own term of office.
The only assigned pretext for delay having
been removed, it is not unreasonable to hope
that the committees bill will be reported and
acted upon favorably at an early day. 1t
meets the requirements of the State, aud will
insure its readmission on a basis which
should be satisfactory. The earliest possible
attainment of that result is desirable in the
interest of the State, and as securing the final
removal from the Congressional arena of a
controversy which has too long vexed and en-
barrassed the Republican party.

THE FENIANs IN ENGLAND.
From The ". Y. World.


BY way of commentary, we suppose, on
the story that Mr.. Gladstone's Irish Land bill
Is esteemed satisfactory by Ireland, we have
news of the discovery in Eng
land of an extensive Fenian conspiracy, hav-
ing for its object the destruction of arsenals
and dockyards in divers parts of Great
Britain.
Conspiracies, at the best, are uncleanly
means to a noble end; but there are circum-
stances in which conspiracy seems to be the
only way left open for a subject peoples pro-
test against its subjection. This was the
case with the Italians during the dark period
of Austrian domination which intervened be-
tween the peace of 1915 and the revolu-
tionary upheavas of 1S4S. 1t was by his in
domitable persistency as a Carbonaro during
this dark period that Mazzini really served
his country and earned the great influence
which he has since so sedulously dissipated
and thrown away.
1t may be doubted whether the Irish peo-
pie are really reduced at the present time to
such a condition as justifies them in resort
ing to like measures. But one thing is GER
tain, that Fenianism in England is laboring
for Ireland much more fairly and much more
bravely, as well as much more practically,
than Fenianism in Canada Fenians con-
spring in English dockyards and arsenals
expose their lives more gallantly than Feni-
ans crossing frontier which keeps a safe
retreat always open and near behind them.
Fenian blows struck at England's fleets and
armies are levelled at the real machinery by
whichIreland is kept in subsection to the
imperial authority; while Fenian invasions
of provinces divided from Britain by leagues
| of ocean and divorced of all share in the con-
troll of Irish affairs could do England but
| little damage even if successful.

JOHNSON'S LAST LEGACY.
From the ". Y. Tribune.

From the ". T. Tribune.
The official existence of the Special Com
missioner of the Revenue terminates, by
limitation of the law that made him, on the
3Oth of June, 1870. When his collaboration,
deputy, and double gauger, Delmar, late Di-
rector of the Bureau of Statistics, departed,
he was snuffed out, without enough of him
left to smoke; but even in Mr.. Wells ashes
something of his wonted fire is left to shoulder
under the putting and blowing-up that it is
getting. The putting is being done by the
Golden Club of London. The Atlantic Tele-
graph of the 27th ult. informs us that his
English hackers are printing his last report on
the industry, trade, commerce, currency, Con-
gress, and general "cussedness" of the United
States, ''for universal circulation" The
blowing up is done by the Committee on
Manufactures of our own House of Repre-
sentatives, in their report eff the 10th of May.
An ambiguous situation this for our national
fnancier, statistieian, political economist, and
Controller General of the American system
of trade and tax legislation. The construction
at least, if not the situation, is doubtful, like
that of the ambidextrous steward mentioned
in the Gospel, who prudently made for himself
friends of the mammon of unrighteousness
in anticipation of his discharge from Office.
HIS lord, it seems, commended him, and
our Steward of the Revenue, after having
also rendered his last account of his steward
ship, is strongly indorsed by the party that is
entirely satisfied with it. The policy of SO
administering the debts and resources of
ones employer as to secure an independence
of bis trust, and snug retreat upon its with
drawal, is obvious; but that, perhaps for
want of a clear understanding of the exem-
plar in the parable, is about all we see to
admire in the imitation. We remember the
indignation with which we heard the story
of one of our West Pointers who went into
secession in 1861, leaving the bombshells in
the arsenal under his charge filed with saw
dust. Mr.. Wells has done better than that
for the enemy. He has carried the bomb
shells collected for our armory, and at our
expense, in prime order over to the Golden
Club in England and its auxiliaries in the
United States, and they are firing them into
our works with all the explosive force there is
in them.

WHEN WILL RECONSTRUCTION BE
COMPLETED?
From the N. Y. Times.

From the NJ Y. Times.
The continued exclusion of Georgia is an
injustice to the people of that State, and
stigma upon Republican craftsmanship
For the only open question relates to the
terms of the legislation upon which the
restoration of the State shall be effected: and
the delay in defining these terms is the result
of a strange infirmity of purpose on the part
of the ma ority in Congress.
The reopening of the subject had its justi-
fcation IN the perverse conduct of thu
Georgia Democracy. Their bad faith, their
repeated manifestations of hostility to the
fundamental features of reconstruction, and
their evident determination to acquire con-
troll of the State by any mears, and at all
hazards, were circumstances which rendered
necessary the interposition of Federal au-
thority.
Congress was compelled to choose between
an jgnominious surrender of its own policy,
and the vindication of that policy by en-
forcing its conditions, and exacting guaran-
tees for their observance. On this ground
we upheld the legislation adopted at the
outset of the session. But having dictated
terms, Congress was bound to follow compli-
ance with them with the prompt admission
of the State. The precise manner of admis-
sion had been settled in the cases of VIRGINIA
and Texas; the only pecaliarities in the case

sonal squabbles which Congress should in no

Senate, with proverbisl loquacity, talked the
whole subject over aud over again, With all
the bitterness which marked the earle It de-
bates on reconstruction-fnally substituting
a measure known as the Pomeroy Military

Democrats with minority of Republicans.

Republican majority, to which the recon
