HARD TO PLRAsE.-The Boston Post is sur
prised that the President should have omitted
the name of the most suitable statesman in
the whole country as one Of the American
commissioners to settle our controversies with
England-Hon. Charles Francis Adams. There
was time when the Post would not have been
so particular about the neglect it alleges to
have been shown Mr.. Adams. But Isn't the
Post satisfied with the commission % it standsP

GOLD DowN.-Thc Wall street spectators
got up theory that peace in Europe was
worse thing than war and that the armistice at
Paris would lead to an advance in gold. Hence
everybody around the Gold Room loaded up
with gold, forcing temporary rise to l124.
The slender foundation for this theory Is be-
ginning to show itself in the steady downward
sliding Of gold to its old figures, Yesterday
it got back as far "a 1111.

ROME AND THE NEW CRUsADE.-A special
HERALD correspondent informs us that a
Roman Catholic league has been formed and
perfected in Belgium, and that the object Of
this league is to organize an armed expedition
against Italy and in defence of the Papal tenn
poralities. Our correspondent adds that he
has the best reasons for believing that organi-
cations have been established in Austria, in
Spain and in some of the provinces of France
1t will not be difficult for this organization to
form branches in Italy, in Spain, in Portugal,
in South Germany, in Ireland, in South
America and even in the United States and
Canada. All that is wanted is Peter the
Hermit. We know no preacher who is equal
to the task. Gavazzi is not to be thought Of
Hyacinthe is not on the right track for q
crusade. The opening is good for some of our
young American priests. We want preacher
Peter the Hermit-and until we find such
we must be prepared for failure. In this age
Of sensations a new crusade for the rescue of
other holy places would not be unpopular.
Where is Peter the Hermit?

THE UNDERGROUND RAILWAY SCHEMES in
the Legislature are increasing daily. The
lobby is determined to work the underground
mine to its utmost capacity, even if it never
secures real bona fde railroad. Another bill
for one of these schemes was introduced yes
terday, making at least five now before the
Legislature. So far, however, none of them
eeem to s'pan out very well"

TIE ENGLISH HIGH COMMISSIONERS EN-

this morning informs us that the English Com
missioners have set sail for these shores
This is business-Ike, and we like it because it

commissioners do meet in Washington their
work will be short, sharp, decisive and satisfac-

THE GRAPHIC ACCOUNT of the life-saving
service on the Jersey coast which we publish
elsewhere in our columns this morning will
probably call forth some efforts on the part of
the government at reform in the means and
appliances for saving life now in use among
the wreckers on that stormy shore. The life
boats in use at the stations are Of an old
pattern and are unfit for service, and but few
of the modern appliances for rendering assist
ance to wrecks in storm are to be found at
any Of the stations.

THE DRAFTED MEN make quite an imposing

34,777 of them in this State, and of all these
only 3, 200 had shame enough to go and bury
their heads in the battles fiery food at the
'front.' The remainder, having furnished sub

the nephew of his uncle intends to cozen her,

Another Dull Day in Congrcss.

The Senate, with that prolixity for which it
has become celebrated, maundered over the
whole of yesterdays session in debate as to
whether it should pass special law by
which Mr.. Miller, Senator elect from the
State of Georgia, should be allowed to take
the oath prescribed for those who cannot take
the iron-clad cath, and yet who do
not require to be relieved from politi-
cal disabilities imposed by the four
teenth constitutional amendment At the
close off long and uninteresting discussion
the bill was passed. But it has now to go
through the difficult ordeal of passage in
the House, where it will require two
thirds majority to get at it, and then, even if
passed by the House, it will require the ap-
proval and signature of the President; SO that
there is very little chance of Mr.. Miller being
admitted to Senatorial honors, as his term ends
on the 4th of March next, and in the meantime
the general bill dispensing with the iron-clad
oath remains at the White House unsigned,
and will probably have to become law to
morrow or next day without the formality of
the Presidents approval.
In the House most of the day was occupied
in fruitless attempts to have the roles sus-
pended for the passage Of various bills, in
cluding the Washington and New York Air
Line Railroad bill, which failed by vote of
Ill to "a, it requiring a thirds ma
jority. An effort was also made, but
without success, to have day set
apart for the consideration Of reports from the
Committee Of Commerce, which would include
the various steamboat subsidy bills. The bill
to enforce the fifteenth amendment was made
the special order for tomorrow, the vote to be
taken at four o'clock, thus displacing and post
poning the proposition for the repeal Of the
income tax. Resolutions were presented from
various State Legislatures protesting against
any further grants Of public lands for rail-
road purposes. The most interesting feature
Of the proceedings was the reading of letter
from the Secretary Of the Navy intended to
allay the apprehensions as to the fate of the
steamer Tennessee.

The New York Republican NTuddIo-.
Murphy versus Greeley.

The New York Republican sruddIe-
Murphy versus Greeley.
The republican muddle in this city to the
Georgia carpet-bagger is about as incompre-
hensible as the Schleswig- -Holsten entangle-
ment We think, however, that the general
readerwill be considerably Illuminated touching
the case Of Murphy vs.. Greeley from the hear.
ing which we give to both sides in another part
OF this paper. The whole difficulty complained
Of by Murphy, is briefly, the difficulty of har-
monizing the republican party, while men are
admitted into its primary councils who are in
the pay and in the service of Tammany Hall.
1t is the policy of General Grant, as the recog-
nized head Of the republican party Of the
nation, to make square fight with the enemy.
and to avoid all corrupting affiliations with
him. Collector Murphy, as loyal supporter
of General Grant, has been and is endeavor-
ing to carry out this programme in this city.
In the last November campaign he tried the
experiment Of wedding out of the Custom
House good lot of those dubious customers
known as Tammany republicans; but the re-
publican cliques and factions of the city inte-
rested in the fat pickings and rich marrow
bones from the Wigwam laughed at the folly Of
Murphy, and continued to assist in the repub-
lican primaries while they continued to
pocket their perquisites from the Tammany
secret service fund.
Murphy, however, was not the man to give
it up So He has persevered in his good fight

many republicans to an issue between the
State Central Committee and the General
Committee Of this city, Of which Greeley ia
chairman. The Tammany republicans, in
getting under the protecting wing of Greeley,
felt as comfortable as brood of stray chicks
under the sheltering wings of motherly old
hen. Nor has Greeley failed to do his duty
toward; these trusting brethren. The State
Committee not long ago came down upon him
with long string of specifications touching
the corruptng affiliations Of Tammany with
numerous republican managers under the care
of Greeley. The confounded philosopher laid
these specifications before his General Com
mittee, and great was the virtuous indignation
of the members thereof; but Greeley and his
committee nevertheless have been hedging.
and dodging, and postpsning, and putting OF
settlement to this day. But Murphy is still
after the hedging philosopher with sharp
stick, and, as Bolts said of Captain Tyler, 30
says Murphy Of Greeley" We will head him
or die"
Murphy is on the strong side, because, as q
supporter Of General Grant, he is on the right
side in this business, in his resolution to
purge his party Of these Tammany republicans.
He does not believe that even Greeley can
serve two such conflicting masters on general
principles as General Grant and sBoss
Tweed, F" but that in attempting this difficult
feat either ''the General" or the s'Boss" win
be cheated by the philosopher; and Murphy is
afraid 1t will be sthe General" We are half
inclined to this impression, because it is in
the evidence that Greeley is not an admirer Of
General Grant Had Tammany nominated

THEY HAVE A RADICAL GOVERNOR in
Georgia, and his name is Bullock. He has
s'hsad on him" or he ought to have, like q
bulls. He has persisted in refusing certiA-
cate of election to Mr.. Nelson Tiff, democratic
member Of Congress elect from the Georgia
district, until, it is reported, the time when
such certificate can be of legal avail-thirty
days after the election-has expired. In the
meantime MIR. Tiff receives q certificate Of
election from competent authority, and it is
referred to the Committee on Elections in the
House. 1t is said that the point has been
decided by the committee to be well taken,
and that this fact makes the chances for Mr..
Tiff to finally represent the district to be much
enhanced.

IT WILL BE NOTICED that in the reports of
the French elections it is stated that the same
candidate has been elected in several depart
ments. For instance, NJ. Theirs has been
elected by eighteen different constituencies
and Jules Favre by four. Both these gentle
men, as well as others favored in like manner,
viii select the department they desire to re-
present, and supplementary elections will be
held in the others. It will thus be seen that
the voters have yet to elect number Of men,

this is great gain to the cause of
democratic humanity. The world has had
enough Of war, and is sickened at the elabo-
rate process by which Germany has had to
strangle France. And it is clear that Eng
land will bend all her energies to such an ad-
justment of international affairs as will, if
possible, prevent war hereafter. At this
point her policy becomes coincident with that
idea which underlies our own history and ex-
plains our own destiny. The Father Of our
Country left us as his best legacy not merely
his inustri0us achievements and his spotless
name, but that advice to which we steadily
adhere not to mix ourselves up with Euro
pean complications. In the fulness Of time
England, from whom we spring, is ap-
proximating to that policy herself. We, even
in our cradle, had worldwide, cosmopolitan
ideas in our breasts to which the sectional
and national antagonisms Of the Old World
seemed antiquated folly, which mankind.
under the inspiration Of our peaceful,
prosperous democracy, would speedily out
grow. If England is the first of nations to
adopt this more benefcent standard of inter-
national life she owes her conversion, in great
part, to the lessons she has learned from us
and the dangers to which she believes herself
to be exposed to from us. We have done
her the enormous service Of creating the most
powerful nation in the world speaking her
own speech, and obIging her to reckon with
us and adopt our ideas Of peaceful progress
Of humanity. Al her writers and thinkers

have voted for it, although he did not
know but what on application himself
he might be refused admission. That
money would obtain all those social
rights they desired; money would es-
tablish for them opera theatres, hotels.

fort or amusement. He opposed all
class legislation as having a tendency
to defeat the object intended. That
this subject of forced social equality
should not be entertained, and conse-
quently he should vote against the bill.
Mr.. Raglan arose in favor of the bill
he cared neither for the constitution
or laws; the idea was that if the consti-
tuition sanctioned this inequality he
cared not for the constitution, and it
should be swept away. A great meas
ure to which great party was COM
mitted should never be allowed to fall
to the ground.
The bill finally passed by vote of22
to 8, the nays being all the Democrats
present except Me-. Anderson, the only
Democrat voting in the affirmative.

Senate on Social Equality 1.-The Bin Passed.

The House bill to enforce social equal
ity, or in other words to open theatres,
bar-rOOms, hotels, STEAMBOATS,, railroads,
etc, to blacks and whites, and to COM
pei a recognition of equality by severe
penalties, came up. The object OF the
bill is to correct defects pointed out by
Governor Warmoth, in a speech last
fall, on the social equality act passed at
the last session, and to make proceed
ings in the courts on the subject sum-
mary.
Mr.. Hunsacker spoke at length in IA
vor of the bill, and claimed that the
Republican party was pledged to it. ~
Senator Barber made a lengthy speech
in favor of the bill.
Mr.. Ingraham claimed that his race
should use the rights, privileges and in
IDENTITIES, and should enjoy the full
benefit OF article Is Of the constitution.
Thus far, the speaker claimed, justice
had not been rendered to his class OF
people. A black man is entitled to all
political or other rights, or his enamel

man was passed he knew nobody was
