THE DISMISSED MINISTER.

If Mr.. Catacazy has that ability about
him which tirst-class diplomat ought to
have, he will hardly thank the Times for
raising expectations in his behalf that
| are never to be realized. Secretary Fish
did not commence on the representative
OF "all the Russias without good cause,
and he will be maintained by the Amer
lean people in his disposition of Minister
Catacazy, with all the pride which they al
ways feel at the officer who resents foreign
interference in our affairs. Catacazy COM
mitted numberless political blunders in
his official career at Washington, and he
was borne with fully as long as propriety
would admit Of The Federal authorities
treated his impertinent meddling in our
politics with great leniency on account of
the friendly relations existing between the
United States and Russia, and because our
greatness is such that small matters can
be overlooked in small men; but there are
occasions when even insects become too
troublesome, and this was just what hap
pened in the case Of Catacazy. When he
attempted to control the treaty making
power of the United States government.
by furnishing secrets to the press which
belonged exclusively to his Office as min
lister, he committed such breach of trust
as to render his mission unsafe for the
transaction of public business and Secre-
tary Fish promptly instructed the Russian
government that if he was not recalled be
would certainly be dismissed. Mr.. Cata-
cay attempted to cover up his transac-
lions, and his organs at once essayed the
game of blufing the Secretary by threat
ening him and the United States with the
wrath OF Russia: but Mr.. Fish politely
instructed the meddlesome minister that
he could neither cheat the administration
nor bully the peoi lie, and straightwav |
ceased to hold any intercourse with him.
except such as was due to him in his per-
sonal capacity as a member OF the Grand
Duke Alexis suite. Catacazy knows his
own weakness and our strength too well
20 attempt any further encounter with the
Secretary Of State: and the
Of the Times, that he intends
o provoke Mr. Fish further, was neither
! patriotic utterance nor conscientious
declaration. We shall hear nothing more
rom the dismissed minister, unless he
ecovers his senses and makes an apology.

A CAST FOR LIFE.

The Bulletin and Picay'ne, apparently
speaking by instruction from Carter. de-
clare that if constitutional majority of
the House Of Representatives depose him
as presiding officer of that body, the
military will interfere and incarcerate in
a military prison all who attempt to mo-
lest him. In other words, if the Repre-
sentatives exercise their legal privilege of
Judging the qualifications Of one Of the
members of their house Che being a Gus
tomhouse f.ctionist or Democratic coali-
ZIONIST, as you wilD, President Grant will
resist them with the army of the United
States. Speaker Carter is to declare what
shall be law, and his fellow-members
must abide by his dictation or be pun
ished for their contumacy.
This is new trick in the game of bluff
which the boilers have been playing since
