A noisy if not determined opposition greeted
Minister Ollivier's request of the French Corps
Legislatif for a contingent of 10000 more SOL
diers. After his usual manner, he endeavored
at once to show that the peace of Europe was
secured, this time not by the Empire, but by the
treaty of Prague and the late Plebiscitum, and
to urge that the military contingency asked for
was needed to insure that peace. The absurd
ity of the argument might have put an end
to the debate had not the Minister proclaimed
in an unfortunate flight of eloquence that the
Empire had gained her Sadowa i'll the Plebisci-
"tum." ThereupOn the outraged members add
journed amid great confusion and excitement,
hardly giving the offending Minister time to
explain that he chad no intention of exulting
cover any subject of the Empire" Minister
Olivier clearly illustrates the difficulty of
carrying water on both shoulders" and he is
evidently doomed to the memorable fate of
the ambitious but not very wise man who at
tempted to sit upon two stools at once.

The House yesterday adopted the Funding
bill of Mr.. Schenck, slightly amended, as a
substitute for the bill of the Senate Between
the measures of the two Houses there is a diff
ference only in detail, not in principle The
Senate favored three issues of bonds, aggre-
eating $1,2000O0,00O, at three different rates of
interest, d. At, and per cent. and having 40
years to run, while the House inclines to
a single issue of less amount $4,000, 000,00O) at
the lowest rate suggested by the Senate and
redeemable after thirty years. The different
machinery for negotiating the bonds, the
agencies fol. the payment of the coupons and
various minor differences are not serious
obstacles to a final concurrence. The recep-
ton which the bills have met with abroad, the
facts elected in debate, and the statements of
financial authorities lead us to believe that the
single bond at low interest and short time can
be readily negotiated. OF course, therefore, we
prefer that the compromise between House and
Senate shall be upon the basis of the House
bill. AS some compromise is imperative, there
ought to be no unnecessary delay. 1t is of
vital importance that the Secretary shall have
the authority he asks and that the funding of
the debt shall be at once begun. Mr.. Schenck
stated in the debate yesterday his belief that
the whole amount of bonds provided for could
be funded during 1870 and 1871. We have not
a doubt of it if the bill becomes a law at the
present session of Congress. And there should
be no delay and no adjournment until bill
is agreed upon and enacted.

The party OF independence in Canada has
grown strong enough to have a newspaper. 1t
is a large good-loOking sheet, called The hide
pendent, written in French and English, and
published at Montreal by A. Buies. Without
wishing to exaggerate the possible influence of
such journal upon the question of separa-
ton, we cannot help looking upon its
establishment as an important auxiliary in
fastening the severance of colonial dependence
upon England, as well as al evidence of vitality
and earnestness in the party which is working
towards that end AS soon as a cause has a
respectable outspoken organ, it acquires a sort
of dignity which is not without effect upon
the masses. Its supporters are no longer a
handful of dissatisfied spirits, or miserable
dozen of noisy adventures, but at once obtain
consideration as party; and that, as all OBJ
serving men know, counts for a great deal.

THE INCOME TAX ONCE MORE.

During its session of last evening, when
barely quorum of members was present, the
Senate resolved by majority of one to recon-
slider the vote by which a full Chamber, by a
majority of ten, had decided not to concur in
the House bill reenacting the Income Tax
Every circumstance of the proceedings
which led to this reconsideration, and
the little force of the arguments which in
fluenced it, indicate that it was a piece Of
legislative strategy-a parliamentary fraud on
the part of the friends of this obnoxious
measure to defeat the duly considered and ex-
pressed purpose of the Senate. We hope
this inference may be unjust, but it is one
which the public, who patiently pay this
tax, and who have submitted to its impOsi-
ton in the belief that it would be permitted
soon to expire, will be very ready to make
The Senate has lost character enough by the
tardy manner in which it has approached and
the perverse spirit in which it has considered
this measure. The friends of the Income Tax
cannot afford to be detected in contemplate
practices, as well as in trivial arguments to Sc
cure its reGnactment. Mr.. Sherman, as Chair
man of the Finance Committee, announced that
the late vote in Committee of the Whole
He thereupon attempted to restore
certain of the taxes provided for in the House
bill, which he had omitted to recommend
that he might make an argument for the con-
tinuance of the Income Tax. The attempt to
undo what he had done was failure. He met
with another defeat yesterday in an effort to
continue the tax on gross receipts, and there
upon demanded, through Mr.. Edmunds, the
reconsideration of the vote striking out the
Income Tax sections. Such proceedings under
most circumstances would be considered a
breach of faith.
But the Senators are not to be deferred by
any such considerations, and by a vote of 26
to % refused to strike out the clause of the
House bill reGnacting the Income Tax. The
following are the Senators who thus veted to
undo the former action of the Senate:

Great Britain, the stronghold of free-trade
bears every year more and more distinct testi-
mony in favor of protection, and those who have
not watched very closely the signs of English
opinion have little idea of the strength which
the protective policy has acquired in that coun-
try. Dissatisfaction with the results of the
free-trade experiment is gradually becoming
general. The protectionists, or, as they prefer
to style themselves the Revivalists of British
Industry, are thoroughly organized at Man
chester, and are working for reform with an
evident determination to win. The literature
of Protection is already extensive and able,
and is fast increasing. One of the best of re-
cent English works of this class, " Protection
" to Native Industry" by Sir Edward Sulli-
van, Bart, we are glad to know is about to
be reprinted at Chicago for American circula-
ton. We hope it will go into every corner of
the land. A voice from England, where free
trade has been tried so thoroughly, will be
listened to perhaps with particular respect.

no new facts to influence and change mems
Judgment. 1t is no argument that in the opm-
ion of the Chairman of the Finance Com
mittee either the tax on gross receipts OF that
on income is absolutely required. No one, not
even the Senator who advanced the argument,
believes that one or the other is posi-
lively necessary az source OF revenue.
The Senators who deliberately voted
against the continuance of the tax In
any form had before them every fact OF
weight and argument of force which was be-
fore the few who last night voted to recon-
slider the former decision. When the PROPOSE
ton again comes up in the Senate 1t VIII
come supported by nothing which was not be-
fore considered When it does come up, let
there be full chamber, and let the PROPOSE
ton be put an end to without delay or mde-
cisiOn.

AGRJCULTURAL ILLUSTRATION or THE
COOLTE Question:

GUILE QCEcAlOA''
North Adams shoe manufacturers find paral-
lels in Long Island growers OF garden-truck.
There are Long Island labOrers who insist, as
well as Massachusetts Crspins, on committing
a sort of hari-kari, and indulging in dog-in-
the-manger policy. The parallels for the
Chinese Coolies are found in lrishmen
freshly landed at Castle Garden. The Brooklyn
Eagle. which is a good authority with the party
that has it in contemplation to elevate the
Chinese question into political principle, and
embody it in a party platform, explains the
trouble on this found battlefield OF
American labor after the following brief and
direct fashion:
"While hundreds OF laboring crowd the corridors
of the City Hail. and tell the Mayor that unless he with
draws his objection to the issue Of further Park bonds
they will be thrown out Of employment and reduced 10
restitution for want Of the 81 IS day which the Park
Commissioners pay for ten hours work. the Long Island
papers are bemoanng the nabyof the farmers to hire
farm hands for s. day Farmers in this County and in the
adjoining County often have to go to Castle Garden and
pick up raw green hands, just landed from the emlgrant
ship; and with this personal search and effort can
not get all the farm help they need"
There is something more of this sort, and an
explanation of the source of the trouble Is at
tempted. but few sentences which The Eagle
extracts from one of the complaining papers
furnish a solution more concise and just as
clear. 1t also suggests a remedy not unlike
that which the Massachusetts manufacturers
are attempting in self-defense, and which the
Crispins are, quite naturally, condemning.
"These fellows" says The Long Islander, mean
ing the men who won't work for SO day,
Have lain their all the Spring with the expec-
taion Of making all up at the eleventh hour. Thcreis
concert union among these and the other aborng men
the vicinity that puts to shame heack Of union among
farmers. They make discrimination between the
skilled and the unsked young boy who has
put the cradle into grain demands just as much as
the steady old harvester who cradle his three or four
acres per day To counterfeit this unwise UNJUST ruin
Gus OF affairs farmers must unite, permanent
weekly organization should be formed not only 10 dis
cuss thslabor question, but many other topics of vital
interest to prosperity"
The principle involved is precisely the same
in the case of the Chinese and the Irish-the
Crispins and the Brooklyn laborers-and it is
a simple commercial question of supply and
demand 1t will be wise in Long Island la
bOrers to look at it as such, and not leave the
farmers to seek cheap labor at Castle Garden,
OF perhaps Hong-Kong.

In the Vermont Constitutional Convention
the Woman Suffrage amendment received
only one vote. The gallant champion who
cast it was Mr. Harvey Howes, Delegate from
West Haven. We fear that West Haven has
been exposed to unmerited oblOquy in conse-
quence of the heroism of her representative /;
for Mr.. Howes with characteristic courage
writes us that the deed was all his own, that
he did it deliberately and understandiDgly,
although solitary and alone" and that no.
body put him up to it. &" If anyl scandal" he
continues, "is likely to rest upon my constit-
"uents i'll consequence of my acts in the Con-
"vcntiOn, freely assume the whole response

"oyidcrre that induces me to believe that |
shall DO able to meet it," This is noble on
the pant of Mr. Howes, but we are inexpressi-
bly, shocked to learn that the Woman Cause
in Vermont is 80 desperately down.

HEIP TILE MIDL1ND.


The Directors of the Midland Railroad have
commenced their effort of raising subscrip-
ton of One Million Dollars in this City.
We have before referred to this undertaking
and urged our citizens to be ready to make
liberal response when the call came. The veto
of the Governor of their State Aid bill, last
Winter, has made their demands more pressing
and given them stronger claims upon us.
While our citizens may differ upon the policy
of aiding railroads by State appropriations,
they all agree as to the necessity that indi-
vduals should subscribe literally to enterprises
of this kind, and especially to this most i'm
portant and deserving of all our unfinished
public works.
But small amount is now needed to COM
plete what has been so well begun, and we
hope there may be no delay or backwardness
in filling up this subscription. This road is
quite az important to our city as either the
Erie or the Central, and we ask our citizens
what their loss would be to have either Of
those roads blotted out = What they would,
in that case, lose, will measure their gain III
building the Midland.

1t is well for the order and decency of the
city that the Police Commissioners have at
last concluded to enforce that provision of the
Excise Law which prohibits the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors on Sunday. Since the Demo-
cratic modification of the Excise Law and the
change in Police administration, the liquor
traffic has been carried on during Sundays
almost as openly as during other days of the
week. AS consequence the city has had a
Carnival of crime" every Sunday for months
past the like of which was never known at
any time during the years in which the
Republican Excise Law was enforced. The
idleness of the day has furnished the oppor-
tunity for an exorbitant amount of whisky
drinking; and the result has been seen in
drunken fights andl brawls, drunken murders
and Outrages, drunken crimes of every sort
and degree. II has looked as though Sunday
was about to become our great day for de-
bauchery and deviltry-so that it would be
more appropriate to designate it as the DEVILS
Day than the Lords.
