It is not often that the death of an indvid-
ua materially disarn,nges party politics or gov
ernmental polity; more seldom still that it re-
tards civilization. But it is hardly to be ques-
toned that the death Of the Hon. Arson Bur
lingame, at this unfortunate moment when the
important treaties which he was authorized to
negotiate are but half finished and unconkrmed,
will materially retard the opening Of China to
the world. The effect on American interests in
the East will, we fear, be seriously damaging.
1t is not merely difficult to replace him; it is
well nigh impossible, and can only be accom-
plished after many years.

The Common Council having determined to
give the Hon. William Ii. Seward a public
reception, it has naturally taken the form Of
banquet Our extraordinary Aldermen are
never so happy as when eating and drinking
at the public expense, unless it be when they
are stealing the public money, and they are
continually doing one or the other. AS to the
forthcoming banquet. we care less for the e1-
pense, enormous though it is sure to be, than
for the stigma it will attach to Mr.. Seward.
His long and varied public career deserves a
more fitting close than this association with
the Commonalty of the City of New-York.
The worst enemies of the veteran statesman
never wished him such misfortune as this

Figures in Speaker Blaine's hands are con-
vincingly logical. Read his short and sharp
letter to Mr.. w. T. johnson, comparing the
first year of President Grants Administration
with the last and most economical of Andrew
johnson. No finer eulogy has ever been pro-
nounced on the financial conduct of any Ad-
ministration than that embraced in Mr.. Blaines
sentences showing that the receipts from in
ternal revenue, with diminished taxes, have
been s2O,0O0,OOO more, and the Government ex-
penditures $6O,OOO,OOO less. under Grant than

sarily sharpens the intellectual faculties. and

The sentiment of the House was strongly
against postponcment of the case OF MIR. whit
temore, but after an appeal of that member Tor a
days further grace, in which to prepare his
defense, the vote on expelling him was deferred
until to-day. The vote on Mr.. Poland's resolu-
ton postponng action may justly be considered
a test and shows that very large majority
of the House favor expulsion. Ihe vigor OF
Gen. Logan's prosecution of this delinquent
renews the hope which delay had somewhat
dimmed, that all others, equally guilty. VIII re-
ceive equally severe and summary punishment
1t is still more encouraging to know that
decision is urged in the case of MIR. White

far as the punishment to be inflicted is con-
cerned in two other cases which are ready Tor

We congratulate Miss Anthony upon two
important steps toward the release OF womaa
from her state of bondage, one of which was
recently taken in England and the other 10
America. Both relate to the prerogatya
which man has most jealousy kept to himself

has at last achieved the right to vote,
and it is in the City of the Great Sal!
Lake that she has first been permitted to
exercise the proudest privilege of free
woman. That this victory should have
been achieved in the very place where he'

of such weapon most formidable to her Op'
pressors is indeed triumph. The only
drawback is that now she has the weapon
she won't use it, or at most she light;

The President yesterday signed the Missis-
sippi bill. and the House admitted several OF
her representatives. But the Senate spent the
day in dull debate over the credentials ana
the citizenship of Mr.. Revels. The inevitable
result cannot. however, be long delayed by such
arguments as were yesterday advanced. 1t is
too late to quote the bred Scott decision as
Mr.. Davis did, or question the citizenship OF a
native; and before the end of the week we
shall probably have Mr.. Jefferson Daviss sue

We regret the painful necessity of defending
Gen. George b. Mcclellan against the insnua-
tons of his some time admirers of The World
newspaper. Gentlemen calling on the Presi-
dent on a public occasion do not hold, nor
allow injudcious friends and partisans to com
pei them to hold, receptions. in public parlor
of the Presidential mansion. George b. McClel-
Ian is undoubtedly no general, but he is doubt
less a gentleman. We are, therefore, led to
conclude that the circumstantial story detailed
by The World of yesterday is weak invention
to iniure him socially.

Reynolds the murderer was sentenced yester-
day to be hung on April g. This summary
trial, conviction and sentence of a criminal for
a murder not a month old would be more as
surfing of public safety did we not reflect that

attorneys and judges is prompt prosecution

The defeat of the House bill to prevent and
punish polygamy is clearly foreshadowed. We
hesitate to commend further compromise with
this crime but the difficulties of forcbly up
roofing it are so great. and the chances of its

so promising, that we heartily trust that the
further consideration of the bill will be post
