other things which we are ashamed TO repeat
In short, our behavior has been abominaDie'
and the British ministry, instead of gong
:" down on their knees and soldering President
"Grant with praise" ought to rend us limb
from limb. The Toronto Telegraph, paper OF
ultra loyal antecedents, cries out: - There was
"a time when it was dangerous to tribe WIN
Z" the rights of BritOns. But that time Is gone
"by. To-day British soil may be invaded WIN
"impunity. To-day British subjects may DE
"murdered, while the lazy lion winks at the
"crime. To-day England is Inundated before
" the world, and tamey she submits"
We suspect the truth is that Canada, with
all her military ardOr, was pretty badly iright-
ened. and is half conscious that she herseli is
Inundated before the world by her extrava-
CANT demonstrations against the most childish
raid ever recorded in history. But IL mel
natural guardians England and the United
States, will not protect her, how can she help
being frightenedi Clearly she is not able to
take care of herself. She drove off Gen. ONeil
or rather Marshal Foster drove him OIL IN a
carriage but this was only sorry achieve
ment for the Canadian hOst-llke shooting
blue-bottle flies with a breech-oading rifle. she
could not subdue the rebellion of Winnipeg; and
the angry Canadian press takes this occasion
to recall the fact that Great Britain refused to
furnish a single soldier for the Red River eX-
pedition until the Dominion agreed to contrib
ute three-quarters of the military force and
pay large proportion of the expenses. when
Lord Granville announced this bargain In Par
lament, il was moreover stated that the Home
Government was now asked to interfere foi
"the last time in the internal affairs OF the
"Amercan continent" Canada is beginning to
realize her own weakness, and to understand
that she suffers all of the embarrassments OF
dependence upon England without compen'
sating protection. 1t is not surprising that the
scheme of independence is once more showing
signs of vitality, even though its speedy re-
suit must be annexation to the United States
That is the natural destiny of Canada, and &
sure sedative of all her terrors.

Mr.. Mark Lanigan comes to the front lie
does know the names of the Tammany
Republicans, and, faith, he'll print EN-
Now, we would not be understood as
averring that Master Mark would do,
exactly, for a Sunday school teacher; nor
are we quite prepared 30 give him clean GER
tifcate for devout obedience to the liquor law /;
but we insist that neither of these lamenta-
BILE facts can operate as an absolute
bar against his telling a great deal OF
truth about people whom he knows so well,
and has in his day trained so much with, as
these Tammany Republicans. We don't believe
he is right in all his names-in one or two cases,
in fact we think him very far wrong,-but he
contrives to condense a good deal of wholesome
truth in small compass; and we commend his
contribution to the attention of people VINO
want to know what is the matter with the
Republican party of New-York. Next it will
be the turn of people whom Mark has been
lately badgering for Office to have their say +!

Was not Mr.. Ingersoll of Illinois admitted to
the House by mistaken He cannot, certainly,
have attained the legal age. Here he has been
pretending to represent an Illinois district, and
yet so young as to know nothing of the mis-
cries his State has suffered from wildcat
banking and an irredeemable currency. "The
" idea of Specie Payments is delusion,
81 snare, and a fraud" says young Mr.. In
gersOll. If his constituents do not vote Mr..
Ingersoll delusion, a snare, and fraud at
the next election, they deserve to burn their
corn again for fuel, and to have a currency
once more on which they cannot travel from
Peoria to Chicago without standing a shave of
40 per cent That fiery mustache that droOps
so artistically over young Mr.. lngersolls hand
some face must be a delusion, snare, and a
fraud. A man so young could not come hon
estly and in process of nature by so tiagrant
a growth; it must have been got from the wig
maker. Young Mr.. Mgersoll should tarry at
Peoria till his beard be grown, and, mean
time, should be kept on thorough course of
school histories of the United States.

The Senate has introduced q variation of
the land grant practice hitherto in vogue, and
we are bound to say it is not one to admire.
Ii voted on Saturday to give to the Central
Branch of the Union Pacific Railroad the odd,
and to the Brownsville and Fort Kearney and
the Midland Pacific Railroads the even Sec
tons of a tract Of country fifty miles wide by
three hundred miles long 1t Is not to the
amount of the gift we object, but to its man
ner. Alternate sections of every land grant
have heretofore been reserved for settlers.
This practice has resulted in benefit to the
railways, the remuneration of the Government,
and encouragement Of settlers. The new rule,
it seems to us, does not tend to populate the
country, increase the value Of the lands, or i'll
any way, direct or indirect, repay the Govern
ment. The action of the Senate is not only
without precedent as one Senator argued, but
without wisdom as q dozen others voted. 1t
seems, indeed a practice so wholly indefensi-
BILE as to smack strongly, in this first instance,
of a very positive job" The Senate has been
for long time past sort of free hunting
ground where spectators poached valuable
game on the national preserves. We look TO
the House to stop the rascals Spectators, not
SenatOrs) in their first attempt at the present
bold innovation.

Thousands of persons will esteem it priyl-
lege to contribute for some enduring and out
ward manifestation of the love in which they
hold the memory of Charles Dickens This
wish can in no way DO better gratifed than
by popular subscription to secure memo
rial of the novelist of humanity in Central
Park. 1t may take the form of statue, or
some other shape which afterthought may
deem preferable; but whatever it may be, there
can be no more appropriate place or more fit
ting means for its erection. Dickens was near
and dear to the people, and out of their means
should come the memorial to be placed in
their favOrite resort.

With the Presidents signature the Army bill
at once goes into effect. The reduction of the
army is to be completed by July 1, 1871, and
after that time the standing army is not to
number more than 10000 men. Army officers
employed in civil duties on leave of absence,
such as Ministers abroad, military secretaries
of the President and Others are required either
to vacate their civil appointments or to resign
their military commissions. BY these and other
provisions which we have heretofore explained,
the bill will save over 100000 annually.

The State of Delaware, in which they call
townships hundreds and still use that other
relic of the Saxon age, the whipping-post is
stirred to her utmost borders with political
canvass, preparatory to the approaching
election for Governor Congressman and
Legislature. The Republicans held their Con-
ventiOn last week, and had by far the largest
representation of the party ever known in the
State. Thomas b. COursey of Kent County
was nominated for Governor and Joshua I.
Heald of Wilmington for Congress. Both are
excellent men, and will draw ont heavy vote.
The resolutions indOrse the XVIII and XVlth
Amendments approve general amnesty, ex-
press confidence in the Administration,
favor free schools, and criticse the
record of State management by the Democ-
racy. Should the Republicans carry the
Legislature one of their first acts will be to
pull down the whippngpOsts and make q
bonfire of them to celebrate the march of
Civilization.

The House refused on Saturday, to concur

The House refused, on Saturday, to concur
in several of the Senate amendments to tire
Legislative Appropriation bill by votes so
positive that there is probability that the
Senate will have to recede from its votes.
Such result will kin the proposition to spend
half million dollars on a new State Depart
ment, as much more on the Capitol Grounds,
several thousands in increased salaries where
increases are not demanded, and one hundred
thousand dollars on North Pole navigators.
We trust the House Committee that is to
confer on the bill with the Senators will
consider the very positive votes of the House
IA instructions to insist on the retrocession of
the Senate. This money ought not to be
thrown away as absurdyl proposed by the BILL

Red Cloud has a quicker appreciation of the
delights and beauties of civilized life than we
at first gave him credit for. He may not yet
have learned TO swear in civilized fashion, but
his declaration in his first speech that he
does MT mean to "run no opposition" to the
Great Father, and his intimatiOn that he
"could MT see" certain beneficial proposition
made him, clearly indicate that he fully ap-
Treciates the advantages Of "slang." But the
evidences of his fine appreciation are to be
found in his latest utterances. He has seen
Washington and Congress, and so greatly adj
mires the dignity and ease and splendor of
Congressional life that he is anxious to have
lis chiefs admitted to the Capital as delegates
But far more admirable still is the display in
the farewell address Of the old chiefs discrim-

The monthly decrease in the debt is not the
only encouraging financial statement we re-
ceive showing that the country, under wise
Administration, is fastening to Resumption,
and consequent prosperity. The commercial
statistics for nine months of the current fiscal
year show that we have imported 100000
less, and exported S15,OOO,0OO more than during
the same time in 1862 and, moreover, the
increase of imports and exports carried in
American vessels has been marked and sig
nifCant.

The DRAMA.

A gloomy sky brOOded over the first week
OF the Summer theatrical The dramatic soil was
exceedingly well watered. Notwithstanding this pu-
vial excess however, new crop of melodramas TOOK
root and began 10 grow and, should the fine weather
continue which began yesterday, we doubt not their
growth will be greatly promoted TO the lively interest,"
and satisfaction of Tho public Upon the production OF
'The Red Light" at Walacks Fernando at the Fifth
Avenue and "NOt Guilty" at Nibo's, we have already
improved the occasion to comment Those pieces are
announced for nightly repetition at the several theate
mentioned. "Hop o. Ny Thumb" the new pantomime,
TO which also we have previously referred is to retain
its place. for the present, at Woods Museum change
of bill however will be made tonight at the Olympic
where Mrs. oates is to persOnate Josephine, in 1.-THE
Daughter OF the Regiment" Saying this we indulge IN
that sort reiteraon which often needfu in journal
ism. Mr.. BOuccault quite right in that erse pre-
cept OF his about the proper and eecual method OF ca
ablshng publicity: First tell the public they are going
to see something; then and then tell them they
have seen it," There is nothing like reiteraton; and
often when makes life slumberOus, it Is the sole

cal enterprise. AlusOn has already been made-but

discussed in the House, where it met with little
opposition, and its provisions are therefore
well understood. AS the alterations it proposes
to make in the present system will benefit

President Grant; but this act does not appear
to be the Inauguration Of a new and more

a condition of release, bonds in a large

vessel should not be employed in hostile
