These are not sportsmen in precisely the same

II ia to the latter class that yachting clubs
owe their existence and maintenance, for they
can be sustained only by the enthusiasm OF
leading members with positive mania for the

enthusiastic yachtSmen be found than IN that

any other the present prosperity of its clubs
is due.

The American Peace Society is making arrange
ments for demonstration in Boston in honor OF the
new Treaty. We think the Society right IN regard
ing this Treaty as some evidence of the dslncina-
tion of this country and Great Britain to go to war
but il is only fair to remember that the possibility
of appealing to that grim ordeal may have exercised
decided influence in promoting the adjustment
The best pacific desires still receive their most favor
ing impulse from the wish to avoid hostlllles; ana
if the war spirit in England this country had been
stronger and if the material interests at stake had
been less might not the upshot have been very DIFF

nations bent upon trying the conclusions of cam
paign and inlamed by the ardor of conquest and by
the love of military glory, break through the light
restraints of treaties without conjunction. We
might have made treaty with Mexico; there was
really nothing in our disturbed relations with her
which might not have been turned over to diplo-
macy; but we were bent upon war, and to war we
went and there is we are sorry to say, no evidence
that under the same conditions might not do the
same thing once more. The first Napoleon made
great number of treaties with various powers, and
whenever he saw fit he treated them so much waste
paper We think it rational to believe that war will
not be 40 much the business of the future as 1t has
been Of the past; but the mere fact of treaty does
not prove this. We wish it did.

The Spanish Minister for the Colonies has
declared in the Cortes that Spain will preserve
the integrity of Cuba as long as men and
arms are forthcoming. This is a reiteration
of the old cry of 1.-THE last dollar and last
man." but with different local application.
The declaration has a, fine sound, and may be
quoted by unobservant people as meaning
much But the integrity of Cuba Gf by that
is meant its tie to SPAIN has long since been
practically Of no account. The Government of
Cuba, in almost all of its relations, is to-day as
thoroughly and practically independent of
Spain as Corea is of China, or Santo Domingo
is of the United States. Spain may imperiousy
order that certain things shall be done or not
done in Cuba. But Cuba goes on about its

Stupid Judges decline to admit to the jury
box men who are sensible enough to read and
understand the newspapers. Men who have
lately been freed from the barbarism OF
Slavery are not always newspaper readers.
Therefore, we are prepared to receive the dis
patch which comes to-day from New-Orleans
announcing that jury had been formed in that
city exclusively of colored men III capital
case all the white people of the city having
read reports in the journals. This happy state
of things cannot long be insured to New
Orleans, and when the ex-slaves do take to
intelligent reading, they will be declared unfit
to exercise the functions of free and enlight

The folly and wickedness of 4" strikes" have
been pushed to the extreme in California,
where the wOrkmen of an extensive and rich
mine, after contentedly receiving certain
wage for twelve years, have suddenly declared
for rise. No concession being made to their
demand, they have taken possession OF the
mine-the Amador-and defy all attempts to
dslodge them. Accordingly, the strike
has amounted to riot, and the
Governor of the State has called out the
sniltia to restore order. The First Regiment,
a crack organization, commanded by w. II. L.
Barnes, one of the leading lawyers Of San
Francisco, has been ordered into the field, and
bloody work is anticipated. Let us see how

THE YACHTING SEASON.

Yachtsmen are accustomed to date American
yachting from the victory of the America in
English waters in 1851. Before that time
there had existed from time immemOrial a
yacht fleet in New-York Bay, but it was in
significant in the number and size of its boats,
and its most daring cruisers seldom ventured
beyond Fort Hamilton. The victory of the
America popularized the regatta, as far as such
costly sport can be made popular; clubs sprang
ND in most of the harbOrs of the Atlantic
coast; fleets increased in numbers and tun-
mage, until now the pleasure navy of the
country reaches an aggregate Of more than one
hundred and sixty vessels, one bundred and
twenty-five of which are owned in our harbor.
AS the victory of the America twenty years
ago gave birth to yachting i'll this country, so
last years contest for the Queens Cup may be
said to have renewed its life and energy And
it is evident from yesterdays display i'll the
bay that the impetus gained last season has
not been lost, but that the spirit for the danger
Gus and delightful sport is stronger than ever.
Yesterdays regatta was exciting and attract
i've. and immense numbers of pleasrre-seekers
sought the bay. Wall-st., nervous over the
prospects of a continued panic in stocks, denied
itself the pleasure of the sail and the race !;
but the bay was alive with steamers convey
ing less anxious lovers of the sport to the
scene of the regatta. Not only the yachtsmen
themselves but those who of necessity ENJOY
TIC race WITHOUT engaging in it, were aroused

NJ Gambetta it is said, refuses to recognize
the authority of the French Assembly, on the
ground that that organization ceased to have
any legal existence after it ratified the terms
of peace made with Germany. Such plea as
this would be very convenient if once adj
mitted. For instance, NM. Rochefort and
Rossel might appeal from the verdict OF a
court-martial existing under authority of the
Assembly, declaring that the Assembly had no
existence after it had authorized opening
fire upon the Commune of Paris. Or any
rogue who had poor opinion of the law
might appeal from the drawing of the halter.
Government would, in fact, nowhere exist
whenever it excited the animOsity of the
governed.

The Select Committee in England appointed to
inquire into the operation of the Vaccination act Of
1867 have made their report. They have heard the
evidence of persons who consider vaccination use
less and injurious and who therefore object to its
encouragement and enforcement by law. The Com
mittee agree with the general opinion that cOwpox
affords if not an absolute yet very great protec-
ton against small pox, and an almost absolute pro-
lection against death from that disease Nor is there
any danger that with due pIecauton vaccination
will injure the health. The Committee are of the
opinion that il is the duty of the State to secure the
careful vaccination of the whole population. If
vaccination had not been general it is believed that
the present small-p ox epidemic would have become
q pestilence as destructive smallpox formerly
was. At the same time, if vaccination had been
universal the epidemic would not have approached
its present extent. SO far as vaccination is con-
cerned the report says that there children who
are utterly neglected by their parents; there are
others whose parents careless fOrgetful of the
operation there are still Others whose parents are
against it. The last class is said to be
small With regard TO the first two classes, there is
no objection to compulsory vaccination. The Com
mitee favors one prosecution of parents for neglect
ing the requirements of the Vaccination act, or at
most two. After these it is of opinion that no good
would result from repeated prosecutions.

The Perkins Institution for the Blind at South
Boston, Mass, the oldest we think in the country,
and certainly one of the best managed, has aban-
doned the plan of having all the pupils under one
roof, "lvng sort of monastic communistic life"
The pupils are to be subdiyided and distributed in
small families Half the inmates have been re-
moved into small separate houses on the plan OF a
village, with a special school-house for girls The
Daily 4dreriser gives the information that this
is the first time that the family system has been
applied to a school for the blind on either
tnentn The results thus far pronounced {
only satisfactory, but successful beyond expecta-
ton" In at least one instance, in Germany, we
believe that this system has been adopted with great
success for the insane, who are boarded and cared
for in the cottagea of peasants.

Bishop Clark of Rhode Island, speaking to the

commended the laity to procure Gfe-nsurance for

one clergyman in fifty is able to anything for
the support of his family after his death" 1t is all
very well TO say that the Lord will provide; but the
same suggestion might be used for abolishing cer-
gymen's salaries altogether. We think, considering
the enormous stipends paid to some pastors, that
they might themselves pay their own premiums
without much Inconvenience; but as general rule,
ministers no more know how to save money than to
make it and the best paid of them live well and die
poor The fact is there is public prejudice against
pinching. gripping penurious clergyman. for there
are some of this kind although we have known
highly respectable gospeler who made good deal
by trading in horses, and another who lent small
sums to his parishioners at tall rate of interest
But it is notorious that while of the clerical In
comes are unnecessarily large, the average Is alb
surdly small; yet there is no point upon which
sensitive pastor likes less to speak to his cOngrega
ton, and none upon which generally congregation
less likes to be spoken to. Yet generous minded

that if anything is worth paying for, at fair rate,
it is precisely the service of pastor, not upon Sun
