Dissatisfied with the nominations already

ported to be contemplated with regard to mu-

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

The news from Paris is bad enough,
but we hope it is not suffi
ciently so to justify the lugubri-
Gus view of the situation taken
by Dr. Holland in the current number
of .ScriJaer's -Nonthy. The editor
says "We have not, from the begin
ming, entertained an expectation that
the French Republic would be perma-
nent, or in any degree harmonious and
prosperous and he concludes with the
following strong expression in favor of
'the nephew Of his uncle"
We are not among those who sneer at
Louis Napoleon. He understands the
French people better than any other man
living, and, with all his sins, is 80 much
wiser than the majority Of the public men
stand at their head. We believe he has q
sincere love of France and desire for, her
progress and true glory. We have seen
no evidence that he desired the war which
has wrought such woe to his people and to
him and we are quite prepared, if his life
be continued, to SEQ him recalled TO his
old home in the Tuilerics. Nay, we
should greet such q return with gladness,
for he has proved himself to be. better ca
pable of taking care Of France than she is
Of taking case of herself. It will boa glad
day when France has popular culture and
faith enough to maintain o republic i-bat
that day is very far in the future 'aa D.

4 BENIFICENT MISSION.

The telegraph informs us that the
committee recently appointed by the
United States Evangelical Alliance to
intercede in behalf of the religious lib.
erty in Russia, is to assemble in Lon
don on the 9th of June next. The
committee includes such distinguished
citizens as Chief Justice Chase, Hon.
Cyrus w Field and Bishop Simpson,
and two Of the number, Rev. DR.. Will
liam Adams and John Crosby Brown,
Brown, have already sailed for Europe.
II is we'll known that Of late years the
intolerance Of the "young Russian"
party in Russia towards the Lutherans
Of the German or Baltic provinces Of
that country has beer steadily intensi-
flying. An avowed effort in fact, is in
progress in the empire Of the Gar. to
crush these German religionists and
their Lettish and Esthonian
converts into conformity with the estab.
lished Greek church. The ancient con
s,itutions and privileges of the Baltic
provinces have been rescinded and the
severest measures adopted to Russiafy
the alien elements Of their population.
1t is in view Of the prosecuted condi-
ton Of these Russian Protestants, that
the Evangelical Alliance has taken ac.
ton. The American committee will
meet in London and Berlin similar com.
mittees appointed by the Alliance in
Great Britain, Germany, Switzerland
and other countries, and combined del.
egations will proceed to bring the
pressure Of united sentiment of rep.
resentatives from the various nations OF
Christendom, upon the emperor, who is
at once the temporal and spiritual head
of the Greek church. May we be per-
mitted TO chronicle the success Of this
unique assembly.

SATURDAY.
A NEW PHASE or THE WOMA.y
QUESTION:.

A shrewd upholder Of the negative
in the discussion Of the woman ques.
ton recently remarked that the ulti.
mate basis Of all government is force,
and that until woman shall be ready TO
shoulder the musket to maintain gov
ernment, she eau have no right, by
means Of the ballot, to share in its
control. Admitting the truth of this
proposition, the women Of Paris, il
seems, are about to solve the problem
Of their rights in accordance with its
terms. They have demanded arms
from the Commune; the Commune have
ordered the formation of women battal-
ions, and the women battalious are to
march against the Versailles troops
The irresistible logic which, after 'the
colored troops had fought nobly," de-
manded the ballot for the colored fight.
er, will Of necessity secure it Cor the
Partisan virago. The news Of the or
gsniSation Of the Amazonian legion,
therefore, must have vital interest for
our woman suffragists, and eager eyes
will watch to see how woman is to win
the political pantaloons in the breaches
Of the Paris fortifcations.

Genes Rllroai.
On the 4th of March last il was an
nounced that arrangements had beer
concluded with capitalists in London fol
money to build and equip the c. & V.R.R.
and that the only condition to closing the
negotiation was the maintainance of the
local donations upon their Original basis
Steps were Immediately taken to secure
tho necessary action by the various town,
city and county authorities on the line for
an extension of time to August lst to re-
sumo work, and for two years TO finish
the road.
am satisfied that if all the local authori-
ties had acted promptly, work would have
been commenced by this time, and tho
creditors of the road fully paid
Unfortunately, however, the County
Court of Alexander County has persist
emily refused TO extend the time for re.
suming work and completing the road,
under their donation contract, against, AS
I believe, the overwhelming voice of tho
people of Alexander county. No effort
has been spared TO induce that Court to
act favorably. 5,~st... sd. "sE-. ~
l append to this card, copy of letter
recently addressed by me to the County
Judge Of that county; he has not even SO
much as honored me with reply.
i now state to the people on the line of
the q. u V. X. r., that there is vet time
TO secure the construction of this road.
If the County Court Of Alexander county
and the town authorities of Csrmi and
GRANVILLE promptly extend the time for
resumlng work to August let, and two
years for completing the road, 1 Am fully
satisfied that Gen. Burnside will he able
to commence work and complete the road
within the times named. In letter 20
me OF the 9th inst, he gives me the assur-
ance that he will be able to carry out tho
above programme. We need not expect
to have the road soon, If tho local asaets
are lost. No loss can come 70 the people

THE SENATE
Was three hours in executive ssion yes
tsrday. Mr.. Sumner presented a petition
from the citizens Of Boston asking tn
Senate to make public the text Of the
high JOINT" TREATY.
This was very funny in view Of Mr.
! Summers extra grave manner, and the
fact that those who signed the petition,
thanks to the New York Tribune, have
already read and digested the treaty suf-
fciently well to know that it is not what
they want for the fishing interest. Mr..
Sumner also presented protest from
Gloucester, Mass, against the ratification
of the treaty. The complaint is that great
injury will result to the fishing interest
from allowing the Canadians the same
privileges in the United States as pos
sessed by New Erglanders, Both memo
rials were laid on the table. Senators Cam
eron and Morton spoke in favor of ra,ify-
ing the treaty. The latter was afraid that
if amendments were made IL would en-
danger its acceptance by Great Britain.
II the
lNt oPPosITIOS TO THE TREATY
continues to grow as it has during the past
few days rejection oft by England would
be, in a party sense, the best thing which
could happen for the administration, for
if it is ratified it will be heavy load for
Radicalism to carry. Yesterday, Senator
Sumner received a letter from the largest
claimant by the Alabama who says, that
he would rather see his and every other
claim sunk to the bottom of the sea, than
4 that such treaty MS this administration
has made should be ratified, New Eng
land growls loudly. Will this admins
tration dare pass BY end heed not its wieh-
es? Dare It defy the the land Of Wendell

progressive political civiliEatian of the
country, which causes us to believe that
nc never will. The advanced thought
Of France is in favor Of popular asser-
ton and the only reason whyit is not
able to control is that it Is at present too
advanced, The Jourgoise is not yet in
line, and so far as political demonstra-
ton is concerned "Paris is France"
Any people in that situation must fail
Of attaining true republicanism, simply
because the intcnscr metropolitan ideas
are necessarily accompanied BY intense
metropolitan action such as is now be-
ing manifested in Paris. France has
yet to learn that the great popular ave-
rage, in which real political strength
lies, is 10 be found in the rural masses,
outside of the great cities. We have
found out this fact in the United States.
and have learned in addition that the
safety of our republic lies in the simple
impregnable integrity of our bucolic
class. Nowhere is the fact tina, great
cities are sores upon the body polite
more manifest than in the United
States. Paris is giving strong proof of
il Just now, but we have faith that
France will he able to control its cap
ital
French civilization has hitherto led |
all Europe, and, We believe, will again !
lead all Europe, not only in politics,
but in art and science. 1t draws from
original sources, and although it is
styled Latin" in its anteeedents, it is
very little different in that respect from
Great Britain and ourselves. If we
scan history closely We will find that
the German element, pure and proper,
is not in the majority in British veins,
although the impulses of our race may
be controlled by it. The Celtic and
Norman infasions we're greater than
the German, aud it is folly to style ours
a Gothic civilization in contradistinc-
ton TO the Latin, which We ascribe to
the French. We believe that the true
spirit of French civilization tends
strongly to democracy; as strongly,
perhaps as that Of Germany, and j, is
folly-almost cravcn--to favor the re.
of Casarism in the return
Of Louis Napoleon to the French en-
pire. France is going through the
purga ton Of FIRE and blood by which it
is to reach political publication. In
due time Germany, her present conquc-
ror, will do tho same 1t will not
come, however, through communism,
nor the radical upturning which is now
being tried, but through chastened
conservative recognition of the princi-
pie of popular rights expressed by
Burks in the formula that ''that which
concerns all, should be handled by all.
We are sorry that the editor Of Serb.
ne,'s Monthly has so little faith in the
political exegesis which is coming, of
which the troubles in Paris are but the
premonitory peristaltic movements.

The lady correspondents of the press
In Washington are becoming an es.ab-
hshed and important institution, and a
very well paid one too. Mrs. Mary
Clemmer Ames, for example, who writes
so cleverly for the Independent and
Brooklyn Union, is paid a salary of S.
600 per annum, which is more, we sus-
pect, than is paid to any man CORES
pondent or writer in Washington. Mrs.
Harriet Prescott Spofford is paid for
correspondence $4,000 year, and
writes articles for papers and magazines
besides. Miss Snead ("Miss Grundy'o
sends very pleasant and racy letters to
the World for $1,000 year,
and writes to the Springfield
Republican, Louisville Journal.
and Baltimore Saturday Night, for
which she is paid large sums of gold.
Mrs. Grace Greenwood 3" Lippincott
has written considerably this winter
for the Tribune, for which, of course,
she obtains her own price Mrs. Maria
Stetson, of Boston, sends lively letters
to the Boston Waterman and Reflector,
and to some paper printed out West
Kansas, or some such country as that.
Another clever and very industrious
correspondent is 'Olivia" Mrs. Briggs,
of the Philadelphia Press. Her letters
are among the best sent from the CAPT.
tai. Probably one reason why these
lady correspondents are so well COM
pensated Is, that, aside from their abil-
ity, they attend very closely to their
duties, do not pervade places where
much Bourbon, late night, and bad CT
gar are consumed, and do not indulge
in sinful games"
