Adiournm emit OF tho Legislature.

The State Legislature adjourned yesterday,
| after session which, being shorter than
usual, was crammed fuller than the average
with big jobs and outrageous frauds. 1t has
not been paralleled, we believe in the history
of this State for singular political dilemmas
and bold strokes for overcoming them. The
opposing parties were almost equally divided
in both houses at the opening, and during the
session the constitutional majority, secured to
the democracy in the Senate only by the death
of Senator Blood, was completely lost In the
House by the resignation Of Assemblyman r.
wing. The proposition to hold special election
in his case, which was not even preached in
the case of Senator Blood, was a marvellous
piece Of political assurance, to be compared
only to the personal Us well as political assur-
ance manifested by Mr.. Winans when he saved
the democrats the necessity of this special cleo
ton by stepping out of the republican minority
and brazenly filing up the democratic hiatus
political handiwork was the adjustment of
the two-thirds rule relative to going into Com
mittee of the Whole, and still another was the
secret caucus and solemn pledge of the repub-
lican members to oppose al party legislation.
The session has, in fact been one made up in
great part Of unlookcd-for difficulties and
bungling articles, most awkward management
and most shameless disregard of rules and
regulations. The subtle tricks of legislation
seemed beyond the knowledge Of the mana
gers. They knew nothing SO acceptable as
legitimate parliamentary strategy. They
worked their ends altogether by rough blows
and ruthless gouging. A nice strategical
fraud on parliam entary usages, a sharp and
well sustained bubble of parliamentary rule
or any smart artiice would have served as
pleasant relief; but no. thors were no tactics
that amounted to anything better than reck-
less gouging at parliamentary law.
The big jobs that were the plums Of the ses-
sion were itly deserving of such reckless
modes of legislation. They were, in their
way, as bareiaced and indecorous as the SUBJ
version Of the rules by which their passage
was secured. Probably they number among
them the biggest jobs that any Legislature in
this State has ever vet dared TO father. The
substance Of the Water Supply, Broadway
Widening and Two Per Cent Tax bills are too
familiar to our readers to need reviewing here,
but they ftly illustrate the immeusity of cor
ruption which the Legislature of 1871, now
happily no more, has piled up during its brief
session.

Neutral Rights at Sea During War-Th
Declaration Of Paris Of 1855.

Declaration Of Paris Of 1850.
Does a neutral flag cover cargo at sea
In time of WARP Such is the important SUBJ
ject which was reopened for debate in the
British House of Commons last night. II
involves the very existence of the essential
international commercial principle which was
affirmed by the resolution known as the
Declaration Of Paris of 1856. The Declare
ton of Paris says that neutral flag covers the
cargo in wal 1t struck away Englands
assumption of the right of naval search and
afforded an honorable freedom, with an open
ing for legitimate trade profits, to American
vessels during periods of European convul-
sions from the struggle of Old World wars.
The declaration has been, consequently, dis
tasteful to Great Britain ever since the very
moment of its affirmation. A strong English
parliamentary party wishes the Queens gov
eminent to withdraw from 1t. Mr.. George
Augustus Frederick Bentinck-Phnbus how
many names-urges the resumption of the
Fright of search" by English cruisers during
war. Mr.. Bentinck Is a lawyer by profess

sequence, and overlooking with conservatism
and the idea Of "irm British foreign policy"

and against the ballot. Mr.. Palmer will never

goes for all the privileges of the monarchy and
very few of the rights Of the people. Mr.
Stephen Cave wishes s'the renewal OF the
right of search. Mr.. Cave Is lawyer OF the
Inner Temple; he is tory; he favors an
English educational system based almost ex-
clusively on the religion of one particular
Church. All these lawyers and tories look
professionally to all sorts of government party
combinations. They delight In trials of The
Ru,,em vs. Boatem order. They also dislike
the free Gag Of America and would, to a slight
extent prefer an Alabama to the Stars and

CANCELLATION IN SOUTH CARoLINA.-We
reproduce report of an interview with Gov
ernor Scott, of South Carolina, by the repre-
sentative Of one newspaper, and a criticism
upon that interview by the editor of another.
This gives the people pretty fair understand
ing Of the situation In one Southern State-to
wit, the State Of South Carolina. These state
ments are interesting and important in view
of the momentous events that may arise in
the South II President Grant conceives that he
is warranted by lawless events in the South to
enforce the diclatorial powers conferred upon
him by Congress.

The Supreme Court, General Term, yester-
day affirmed the verdict rendered in the Court
of General Sessions against Lawrence Sulli-
van, tried and convicted of numbering John
O'Brien about year ago in Whitehall street.
Exception was made to the verdict on the
ground Of the exclusion of certain evidence
by phrenologist showing brain organiza-
ton predisposing Sullivan to crime, and
thus relieving him from responsibility,
as not having his will under sufficient
control to prevent the commission OF
crime. The Court failed to see the import
ance of any such evidence, and, without stop
ping to hear what the District Attorney might
have to say in reply, affirmed the verdict given
in the Court below. Meantime, as will he
remembered, Sullivan was sentenced to be
hung on the goth of last January The late
appeal suspended proceedings, Of course. 1t
now devolves on the Supreme Court Judges
hearing the appel to resentence him.

sword. There Is no necessity for that. The
industry, prosperity and general good conduct
of the South show the impolicy and injustice
of such . dangerous measure. Disorders there
are, no doubt. as there frequently are in other
sections OF the country, but they have been
greatly exaggerated and do not justify the
subversion of civil liberty. Many of these
disorders have been fomented by the
radicals themselves. This high-handed
and autocratic policy Of the government must
be understood by the con servative people of
the North. They will soon learn that it has
been adopted for political ends-to inflame
sectional passions, and to place the Southern
States under the control of the administration,
so as to secure their vote in the coming Presi-
DENTAL election. 1t looks as If the radicals
are ready to create another civil war rather
than lose their power. Still, we think they
will overreach themselves, and that their very
coercive and despotic policy may defeat the
object they have in view. This pretended Ku
Klux legislation will give the democrats
great advantage, If they know how to use it.
They could have no better plank In their plat
form, and no better issue on which to go be-
fore the people. The old saying that ''whom
the gods would destroy they first make mad
seems to be applicable just now to the radical
party. 1t is evident from the whole tenor of
the democratic Congressional manifesto that
the leaders know what they are about, and
that they are going TO make the despotic and
coercive policy of their opponents prominent
issue hereafter.

YOUNG BLOCK, who killed Colonel McKaig
in Frederick, Nd, for seducing his sister, has
been triumphantly acquitted. The maxim
that seducer is lawful prey for any relative
of the seduced is fully established by the

recently given; but even If such were not the
case this Colonel McKaig deserved to be
killed for bis heartless treatment Of his victim.

AFFAIRS IN MExIoo.-By special telegram
TO the HERALD from Havana we have later
advices from the city Of Mexico. The admin
istration has gained point in Congress by a
majority Of one vote. The political campaign
is exciting, and the prospects for the re-elec-
ton Of Juarez are improving. The revolu-
lions In several States remain as at last re-
ports, no further information having been
received. The President has vetoed the EIec-
toral law, and states that he will propose
another, which he considers more favorable
for the country.
