Ex-Queen I.abella'. Rumored Abdica,ion.

Ex.s(ueen IsRbetta's Rum0red ADGicRttOn.
1t was rumored in Paris on Saturday
last that ex-Queen Isabella had made her
arrangements for signing her formal abdication
of the throne of Spain, and that Marshal
Bazaine and other important personages were
to be present to assist in the important cere-
mony. We have not yet, however, been
informed of the formal proclamation of the act,
though we suppose that her Most Faithful
Catholic Majesty must be by this time con-
WINGED that abdication Is her only alternative,
in view Of some possible chance that, with the
old lady out of the way, the Cortes may come
to a compromise in accepting her son, the
Prince of Asturias She will doubtless retire
from the contest in favor of this young man,
and in the long interval of the recess of the
Cortes, which is to be heightened to Novem-
Der next, it is possible that the ex-Queen,
through the Church party in Spain, may bring
her son very prominently into the foreground
for the succession That she has an active
sympathizer in the Pope and in her devoted
Catholic countrywoman, the Empress Eugene,
we know; but the jealousy Of the Bourbons,
inherited and still entertained by the Bona
parties, is Serious ORA wback to the house of
Spain We think 1t probable, however, that
Louis Napoleon, in one way or another, will
at last have to settle this difficult Spanish
u,raation

almost unnecessary to call attention to the
special correspondence from Bagdad which
appears in our columns to-day. Dated in the
city of romance, at the scene of the stories of
the Arabian Nights Entertainments, it will be
read universally, il only on this account.
Our special writer does not apply himself to
romance, however, bnt gives to the world the
actualities of the day. He tells Of the people
Of Bagdad as they now are their commerce
and government, and the antiquities Of the
place. The question of the Turks as a govern
ing race is also set forth. Lady Zobede $
tomb is described and vast deal Of other
matter, atlzactive and useful, supplied.

The Ecuinenicnl Council.

The Ecumenical Council, according to one
of our latest reports from Rome, will sit during
the summer months. 1t is expected that the
final adjournment will take place about Easter,
1871. The sitting through the summer
months is not bad idea 1t will work pow
erfully in favor of infallibility. The minority,
it is not unreasonable to presume, will get
tired out and 60 home, leaving the infallibilty
men masters of the situation. 1t will not be
wonderful if this dodge secures unanimous
vote Some days ago the Archbishop Of Paris
startled the Council by openly and emphati-
cally declaring that unless the dogma was
unanimously approved by the Council it would
not be binding on the Church. If the malcon-
tents leave In disgust unanimity may be
secured. The Council has besides become a
kind Of necessity in Rome. 1t pays. 1t is
the grandest and most profitable show which
has been witnessed in the Holy City in many
long years. When travellers from all parts of
Europe and America are rushing through and
across the Alps why should the show be dis
continued?

races that cheer it in as many dialects with
united voice and common love. To-day Asia
begins to send us her toilers to do minor
work for which their peculiar organization es-
peclally FITS them, and in doing so steps in to
our relief aud points the sturdier white race to
nobler task than stitching shoes. The cord
wainers Of Massachusetts may thank their
stars that they, from being the servants OF SER
wants, may now, by a wise dlspensation, be-
come the masters of more minute and doclle
fingers The slaYing household drudges Of
poor homes may aud ia the quick, fairy-Hks
aid of the Chinese girl, whose clothing and
food are equally frugal and simple, the very
present help in time Of need that their aching
limbs and worried brain have crayad this
many day, Aud what will apply to Amer
lea, in its densely settled DISTRICTS will apply
to Ireland or any other country on this earth.
The increase Of labor, while 1t may diminish
the profits ofthe few, inevitably Increases the
comfort of the many, provided that the pres
sure oe relieved according TO the dictates of
reason, humanity and Gods eternal truth.
And what are these? To take away the bread
OF others, because our own may falsely seem
endangered? To brawl along the street, aud,
in the name Of liberty. impose reign Of ter
ror? TO be cruel tyrants to-day over tie few
and the weak, preparatory to the yoke that
the strongest single tyraut will impose on all
alike tomorrow? To commit those excuses
which breed a fierce reaction, to set the exam
pie, mark out the process, clear the way by
which the boldest intriguer with the blacklist
heart may once more march to despotic
mastery and crush the very name Of freedom
beneath his iron heel
We trust that neither in Ireland nor il Amer
lea, in Germany nor in France, this appalling
delusion Of protecting local monopoles 0!
labor or aught else, by violence, may prevail.
Could we think that it would, we should
feel that the darkest hour of humanity
was yet to be endured. But we
do strenuously, earnestly, necessarily advocate
the elevation and the emancipation of the
workingman, and we propose for him com.
binaton that will inevitably win the great,
good fight. Il is the trades union of conscien-
tious effort to improve every rightful oppor-
tuni:y; of diligence, integrity, sobriety,
frugality, honest hope, true faith in God and
fellow man and the kind spirit of brotherly
love. Capital is mighty, bnt capital is wise ;
it sees, 1t thinks. and it Is most keenly
sensitive. Assail it and it departs and leaves
you poor. Conciliate it, invite it. win it aud II
becomes your friend. Capital persuaded and
treasured and labor reconciled are natural
allies, and when united will conquer the
world; but those who set capital and labor
at war will consigu to suffering the innocent
families of millions more than the poor cord
wainers at North Adams and the tailors at
Cork.

FREE TRADE AND FREE LABoR.--f free
trade is good, why not free labor! If it is
wrong that American consumers are compelled
to pay high prices for home made goods be-
cause of the protective tariff upon English
goods, is II right to oppose the introduction Of
cheap Chinese labor because it comes into con-
fct with American labor? Again, what bet
ter plan can be adopted to secure free trade
than this plan Of introducing Chinese labor,
which in cheapness will enable our factories
and foundres to compete with those Of Eng
land without protective tariff? In word
do not free trade and free labor, and free
field for labor, all go together? What say the
POLITICIANS?

American Exchange Tending Downward IL
European Markets.


We learn through the telegraphic news from
Europe that American exchanges are tending
downward in consequence Of the prospects of
the grain trade and the dividends that are
interest on the national debt. This will
account sufficiently for the decline of gold here
When exchange is largely against w and high
there is, of course, a gfeater drain of specie,
and this raises the premium on gold. But the
prospect of a fine grain crop and large
demand for it abroad together with the dis
bursement in few days Of thirty millions or
so Of gold by the Treasury to pay the July
interest, place this country in favorable posi-
ton as regards the balance of trade. The
large and valuable cotton crop has contri-
buted very much to bring about this state of
things. Though our importations, which con-
tinue to give an immense revenue to the
government are enormous, the country is so
prosperous and its productions are increasing
SO much that there is no fear about meet
ing our liabilities abroad. The pros
pect of there being a considerable demand
for our grain in Europe is good news for the
farmers, merchants, shippers and railroad
companies. The grain trade, coming in be-
tween the last years crop Of cotton and the
crop that is now growing, will keep business
active and the exchanges more in our favor.
While Congress is tinkering at the tariff, taxa
ton and the national finances the country is
solving the difficulties that surrounded us.
Our wonderful and varied resources and the
Industry of the people are smoothing over the
embarrassments brought upon the country by
the war But we have only just started on
this fresh career of prosperity. The reorgani-
cation and restitution of the industry of the
South the rapid development Of the West and
the progress of the industrial pursuits Of the
North and East will soon turn the balance of
trade largely in our favor. When our shipping
interests revive in connection with this general
prosperity exchange will cease to be against
rs. New York must take the place of London.
This city is destined to be at no distant day
the financial centre of the world We advise
the gold and stock operators Of Wall street to
ponder over these facts II they do not they
will be tripped up as Boyd and Ketchum have
been within the last day or two And we
recommend our merchants and financiers to
prepare for the future that is opening both for
the country at large and this great commercial
metropolis.

BUTLER is to be investigated. Having
forced Investigations into everything and
everybody that gave any shadow Of an excuse
for it, it is the highest order Of dramatic JUS
tice that he himself should at last be investi-
gated There seems to be some trouble about
the way in which the funds of the National
Soldiers Home have been expended, and But
Ter is President of that concern. With Buffers
reputation, and the love his friends in Con-
gress bear him, this little fact is foundation
enough. We cannot express any opinion
as to his guilt or innocence until we
hear the evidence, unless, indeed, we are
to Judge by the company Ben has been found
in lately and by his previous character, which
will probably be given in evidences but, as &c
has more brains than Whittemore, we predict
that he will not have to resign to escape ex-
pulson.

gress Of Reconstruction in Gre
Britain-An Important Reform.

Within the last few years how numerous
and how sweeping have been the popular
triumphs in Great Britain! How changed is
the system Of government since 1882! Nay,
how changed since 1852! Formerly Great
Britain was the most exclusive Of monarchies
The government of the empire was exclusively
in the hands Of the so-called higher classes.
The nobility and the landed gentry only had
rights. No Office Of power and trust at home
or in the colonies but was filed by rich
mans SON or rich mans friend. The Reform
bill of 1882 was great initial step towards
uplifting the people. Until lately the pro-
gress was slow, as was most natural among
people trained by long experience to regard
changes with suspicion. OF late years, how
ever, reforms have gone on apace. Some
years ago the Indian civil service was thrown
open to competition. The change has worked
WELL Young men have been found in no
stinted number, though without patrician
blood in their veins, equal to the highest
requirements. India never was 80 well gov
erned as now, and for the simple reason that
the men who now govern India have been
tried and found worthy before being entrusted
with official responsibility. The Disraeli
Reform bill and the numerous reforms, poiti-
CAL ecclesiastical and financial, that have fol-
lowed in so rapid succession have placed the
great body of the people in an entirely new
and greatly more advantageous position.
What has been done is nothing to
what mast yet be done. The people now
are fully alive to their wants. They
know their strength and they are not indis-
posed to put it forth. Hence the present
reforming activity which runs out in so many
directions. One of the most important reforms
which it has been our privilege to record is
that which is known on the other side as ''The
New Order in Council" This order, which
bears date June 4, directs that after August
81 all entrance appointments to all situations
III all civil departments Of the State, except
the Foreign Office or posts requiring profes-
sional knowledge, shall be filed by open COM
petition 1t is virtually the adoption of the
Indian system into the civil service of the en-
pre- After his appointment the victorious
candidate must pass through six months
probation, and the chiefs Of departments are
distinctly vested with the power OF dismissal.
Henceforward, as the result Of this reform, the
colonies will be governed the civil depart
ments of the army will be administered, the
revenue collected and the business of Parliament
initiated by class of men impartially selected
from the great body-from six millions Of male
adults, instead of from sixty thousand. 1t is
impossible to exaggerate the importance Of
this as great popular gain. Not aristocracy,
but brains. will heuceforth govern the British

STATE SUBSIDIES AND RAILROAD TAXES
The Sonoma (Cat.) Democrat, arguing in favor
of the subsidy for the California Pacific Rail
road, asserts that the tax upon the railroad
property will pay the subsidy within the time
when it is payable under the law-namely
twenty years The Sacramento Reporter does
not think this statement correct, and defes
the Democrat to show single county in the
State where railroad property has paid in
taxes anything like interest on the aid given.
The fact is this whole business of national or
State aid TO privats railroad or other specu-
lative projects is one fraught with mischief
and productive Of an incalculable amount of
corruption in high places and official demorali-
cation generally. The system should be
banished altogether from both national and
State legislative halls.

The Elections Cor the Next Congress-'A
Democratlc Pronuncia mentO.

The democratic members Of the two houses
OF Congress have issued round robin calling
the attention Of their party throughout the
country to the Importance of the coming fall
elections, involving nearly all the members OF
the lower house Of the next Congress, by the
the people, and one-third of the members OF
the Senate, through the State Legislatures to
be chosen The signers Of this Congressional
democratic call think that the democracy may
in these elections carry the House of Repre-
sentatives; that is, ''if they do their duty and
act wisely-if they throw OF all apathy and act
with vigor." But they are told that there
must be mo disseusions about minor matters,
10 time lost in the discussion Of dead issues,
no manifestations of narrow or proscrptive
feeling &C., and the Southern democracy are
told to be careful il selecting candidates for
Congress who can take The test oath and who
can face the fourteenth amendment without
dinching; for otherwise, if elected, the radi.
Gals may rule them out.
Now, this begins to look like democratic pro-
gress. s'No time to be lost in the discussion
Of dead issues" means that it is useless to fight
any longer for the restoration Of 1.-THE consti-
tuition az it was under which ''the blasted

RALTAR-A special cable despatch which
we print this morning informs us Of the dis
covery of plot to blow up a powder maya

to know that the plot was discovered in time
and that the ringleader has been arrested.
