PRESIDENT GRANT has been invited to visit
New Brunswick on the occasion of the opening
of the European and North American Railway
from ST. John, N. b., to Bangor, Me-, but he
has declined, on the ground that he is reluctant
to leave the United States during his term of
Office, and thereby establish bad precedent.
But why should he not leave the United States
for a call SO evidently neighborly as this? We
are on unusually cordial terms just now with
Canada, and visit from President Grant
would serve to enhance the cordiality greatly
And considering that it is only across the
border aud the occasion is that OF the opening
of railroad which is of immense commercial
Importance to the United States, and which
besides is great step towards further cement
ing the cordial relations between ourselves
and the New Dominion, we think that really
the President ought TO 60. Besides would
like to see what the Canadians would think OF
our Man Of Appomattox on personal inspec-
ton.

CAPTAIN VANDERBILT, the President Of the
Staten Island Ferry Company; Braisted, the
Superintendent, and Matthews, the United
States Inspector, who certified to the fitness
of the boiler of the Westfield, have all been
indicted by the Grand Jury of this county
for completely in the mismanagement that
brought about the Westfied disaster. 1t has
been just month since the occurrence Of that
calamity, and the law does not seem to have
acted very promptly in their case. But the
law is always slow-much slower than sure.
If we could rest assured that another month
would find these men just indicted working out
severe sentences in some Of the State prisons,
or paying heavy fines for their criminal mis-
management, we could wait cheertully on the
law. But will that ever be the case!

Judices and overturning aristocratic barriers,
Is, with the telegraph, the railway and the
steamship, revolutionizing the world. With
these powerful assisting forces the political
advances of mankind toward the consumma-
ton of universal liberty, popular sovereignty
and equal rights, are simply irresistible. Pub
lie opinion, in fact, is already master of the
situation throughout Europe, except in Russia
and Turkey, where there is as yet but little
public opinion beyond the will Of the Gar or
the Sultan. Europe is certainly no longer
controlled by diplomatic jugglery, nor by the
intrigues at court of weak, wicked OF ambi-
tious women; and in the bold game of Bis
marck of moulding the public opinion of Ger
many to the ''dvine rights of kings" he is
bound tof fail. And we have only to look at the
power ofthe so-callsd ''good Queen Bess" in her
time over the affairs of England and contrast
it with the mere symbols of sovereignty left to
the really good Qleen Victoria in order to
realize the decline in these latter DAYS of
womans influence in governmental affairs,
Notwithstanding the general agitation Of
womens rights.

variance, for, according to the Prussian Cross
Gazette, Prince Bismarck and Count Beust
have arranged at the Gastein Conference that
Prussia should make representations at st.
Petersburg for the restoration of good un-
derstanding between Austria and Russia. The
trouble between these two Powers is that they
have been trying to undermine each other in
the Danubian Principalties, but chiefly in
Roumania, where Austrian and German infu-
ence has rapidly lost ground. This Rouma-
nian difficulty, though apparently settled for
the present, will yet prove the SchIeswig- g-Hol-
stein question Of the East.

TIE INQUEST ON THE BODY OF ALICE
BowLsBY has been concluded The evidence
was so well arranged and covered every point
so conclusivcly that there was no necessity
for spinning it out. The verdict rendered
finds Rosenzweig guilty of the girls murder,
and that fend has been committed to answer.
1t was shown beyond cavil on the inquest that
Rosenzweig and Ascher were identical; that
the girl came 20 his place on Wednesday, and
that RoseVwcig assisted in sending her re-
mains away'in the trunk. These points appear
to be SO fully covered as to leave no doubt OF
his conviction but the police are still on the
alert for any additional evidence that may
tend yet more conclusively to saddle him with
the guilt and the punishment

reign of peace and order. There are, perhaps,
exaggerations in both directions, yet there is
enough in these Ku Klux outrages to make
some action to suppress them a necessity.
Many parts of the South are as peaceful and
prosperous as before the war. Why is it that
of all the Southern States South Carolina is
reduced to the humiliating attitude of chronic
disorder? Is it because her dominant black
population, under her reconstruction system,
absolutely rule the State, or are they, with all
their vain concets, so utterly incompetent
and ignorant that they have brought all these
troubles upon the Commonwealth with their
fantastic tricks" in the State administration?
1t would seem SO; for surely, with anything
like just, honest and reasonable administra-
ton, the State authorities, black or white,
would be able to take care of themselves and
their followers in the maintenance of law and
order even in South Carolina. In any event
''let us have peace" and let us still hope that
in order to have peace, even in South Caro-
lima, it will not be necessary to resort to the
instruments and the laws of war.
