Tho Black Sea Open 70 Navigation-Efect
Of tho Treaty OF London.
We are informed by telegram from st.
Petersburg, forwarded through the cable,
that the Russian government announced by
official publication in the capital yesterday the
formal ratification Of the Turco- Russian con-
vention, by which the restrictions which have
hitherto prevailed against the free navigation
of the Black Sea, particularly by armed ves-
sells Of war, are abrogated. The Euxine
waters are rendered virtually free to the
nations. The Treaty of Paris of 1856 is
modified almost to obliteration by this
public executive act. Turkey is reas-
sured. The fact of this reinsurance to the
Porte will tend to draw the great Powers Of
the Old World into more friendly and conf
Dental communion. 1t comes at q most
critical moment in the history of Europe One
of the leading Powers which took part in the
negotiation Of the Treaty Of Paris of 1856 is
disintegrated almost to oblteration. France
lies trampled under the heel of her
own children, with the glory, brilliancy
and dash Of the Crimea dimmed and
furnished, and hating sadly in its pro-
themselves of the opportunity to come closer2
VIII the Eastern policy be altered and re-
formed to suit the exigencies of the diplomacy
which has been rendered absolutely necessary
in Europe by the issue and results of the
Franco Prussian war? 1t is very probable
that it will be. 1t is, conseq uently, impor-
tant-important, indeed, from every point of
consideration-that the American people
should be informed Of and pay attention to
the aspect of the Eastern question as it pre-
SCENTS in it's remodelled shape after the work of
the London Conference. The Europe Of to-
day may go East as o unit-without France;
perhaps without the United States. The ex-
cellent results of our friendly relations with
Turkey may be imperilled, particularly our
commercial interests. Taking broad and
serious view of the subject, we have judged it
necessary to specially illustrate our cable
news telegram from St. Petersburg by publ
cation of the history of the London Confer
ence, Its negotiations and treaty arrangements,
so far as they have reference to the naviga-
ton of the Black Sea and the Dardanelles.
Comments of the official journal of Turkey on
the subject are given with the report, which
appears in our columns to-day.
The Paris Jacobins and Their sacrilegious
Outrages.
Our latest news from Paris does not con-
vince US that the lovers of order have any
good reason to think we'll or hopefully of the
Communists. The roughs who have obtained
control of Paris, and who, through Paris have
vainly tried to get hold of France, have made
some serious blunders. Every latest blunder
is an additional illustration of their bad
principles and an aggravation of past proofs of
folly and crime. With honest republicans we
have every sympathy. We wish them-we
cannot help wishing them-all the world over,
success. But, much as we love republican
institutions, we cannot recognize the Paris
mob. Republcanism, as represented there
to-day, means mob rule, disorder, anarchy,
chaos everything, in fact, which good man
despises and breads. The Imprisonment of the
Archbishop of Paris and the pillaging of the
Madeleine reveal all the worst characteristics
of the ancient but not yet forgotten Jacobins.
All property in common, the Goddess of Rea-
son, no Sunday-that is their programme.
Some sixty years ago France worked her weary
and bloodstained way out Of Jacobin rule; and
one of the most popular acts of the first Ma
poleon was his restoration of the Sabbath.
The French Communists forget that the
French peasant class, which controls the ma
tional VOTE is religious and Catholic. If they
don't forget they close their eyes to facts
The Imprisonment of the Archbishop of Paris
and the pillaging of the Madeleine have killed
Communism. If the Paris insurgents had
kept off the Church they might have had a
chance. AS it is, the last shadow of their OPP
portunity is gone. The priests will now
preach and the peasants will fight for the
restoration of strong government. In that
government the ''reds' will find no place.
