THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE.

One of the leading journals OF the
United States is the Chicago Tribune. It
is conducted with peculiar ability in al
its departments, and there is boidness
freshness, independence and originality
in its editorials that attract the attention
Of its readers of every political persuasion
Hon. Joseph Medill, the leading editor
Of that journal. gives the tone to the edito-
rial department of the Tribune, and though
we may sometimes differ slightly with the
sentiments expressed, We do not fail to
admire the spirit in which they are written
Mr.. Medill visited Louisiana some
three years since, when political acrimony
and sectional bitterness had not been
allayed as they are at the present time.
He found us then community divided
among ourselves. He finds now more
social. political and commercial harmony.
and discovers that the one great aim of
our people is to promote the general pros
perity.
Mr.. Samuel J. Medill, the city editor
of the Chicago 1ridoe; whose depart
ment is csnspicuously well conducted. ac-
companies his brother to the Crescent
City. Together they will visit St Mary
parish, and other portions of the Tcche
country, and be able to form a correct
Judgment of the resources OF the sugar
region Of Louisiana.
Mr. Medill's letters from Louisiana to
the Tribune. when he visited this State
before, were models of terseness. and
freely expressed the impressions made
upon his mind by what he then saw and
heard here. His Judgment, to some ex-
tent might have then seemed somewhat
harsh but no one can doubt that his
words We're written from the heart, and
we have no doubt that his present series
of letters will present his views and i'm
pressions with his usual sincerity and
correctness.

UNPROrESSIONAL AND IMPROPER.

The Attorney General of the State of
Louisiana appears in role before the
courts that is somewhat unusual. The
Legislature passed an appropriation to
his credit of fifty odd thousand dollars.
A similar appropriation was voted to Mr..
Nixon. The Governor of the State and
the Auditor of Public Accounts resist
these appropriations on the ground that
they are in violation of that amendment
to the constitution which limits the debt
Of the State. Both of these claims, there
fore, stand on the same footing and in
volve the greatest interests of the State.
The Nixon claim is being sued upon by
way of mandamus to compel the Auditor
to draw his warrant for the amount Of the
appropriation. If Mr.. Nixon wins his
suit, MIR. Belden must win his suit also
Therefore, the Attorney General is almost
directly interested in the Nixon verdict to
the extent of fifty odd thousand dollars.
1t is manifestly unseemly, therefore, that
ne should appear in the Nixon case
on behalf of the State, for such an APP
pearance puts him in the attitude Of
defending against his own interest.
And this is augmented when he as
sumes the position which he did in court
on Tuesday, that be was the custodian Of
the interests of the State in the matter,
and that he would probably reject the
able counsel which Governor Warmoth
has engaged to assist in protecting the
public treasury. 1t will be apparent to
the public that the Attorney General COM
mits breach of professional duty when
he attempts to defend case in which he
is implicitly the prosecutor.

TIE INTEROCEANIC CANAL,

Commander Selfridge, commanding the
Darien exploring expedition, writes
letter in which he states that his efforts
have been crowned with success, and that
he has discovered route for ship canal
from the Gulf of Darien to the Gulf of
San Miguel. The highest elevation is not
over three hundred feet, and the channel
can either be a clear cut through from
ocean to ocean. or locked canal The
harbors at either end are ample and we'll
protected, and the natives friendly. The
exploration was made under such condi-
tons Of hardship and exposure that Com
mander Selfridge was thrown into a
severe fever; but at the time of writing
the letter that conveys this intelligence,
he was SO far recovered as to be on the
point of starting for the Pacific slope to
survey the Gulf of San Miguel. He gives
no intimation Of the probable cost of the
werk, but intimates that it may be too
high to warrant the undertaking. The
government of Colombo assisted the ex-
petition with laborers, as well as a small
appropriation.

now nearly done. unless they shall be
returned by their constituency in the

remarks must certainly find Judgment
within its periphery. We rise to correct
the following paragraph:
Not a German soldier remains in Paris.
How beautiful the example. Suppose that
so considerate policy had been that of the
United States after the war. and that III
stead of planting martial law i'll the South
crn States they had substituted generous
civil officers for martial warriors i-Lou.s-
rifle Ledger
First: There are a large number Of Ger
man soldiers that remain in France to see
that the reconstruction laws and the terms
of the surrender are not violated. That
may not be 50 beautiful, but it is fact
Second: Alsace and Lorraine viii be gar
risoned with German troops from tins
time forward, and the Eu-hlux of those
departments will find a very different
kind OF treatment waiting FOR them than
ever caught the same brotherhood Of out
laws in Kentucky. And the irreconcil
ables throughout Prussia, who may think
too loud about the reconstruction Ok Ger
many. will probably be allowed TO carry
on their conversation in solitary contire-
ment Suppose. then, that the United
States had Withdrawn erary soldier from
the South after the rebellion was sup
pressed, is ii not probable That the Same
misfortune would have happened that is
now occurring in Hayrc, where the people
have decided that Germans shall not here
after work in that city? And would it
not have been great disaster If such had
been the result: It does not require very
profound head to comprehend these ques-
tons and conclusions. so we have consid-
cradle faith i'll their entering under the
wool Of the Ledger man.

We paid visit to Governor "armoth
yesterday, and found him in good spirits,
though still suffering from the injury to
his foot, which is Of severe nature, but,
fortunately, not dangerous. He will re-

quiet for few days, when We may hope
to see him out again. Many gentlemen
called yesterday to pay their respects,
but, under the advice of the surgeon.
they were denied admittance, and left
their cards.

STORM SIGNALS,

Wednesday night the city of New Or
leans was visited By storm Of wind and
rain which did considerable damage on
the land and on the water. Thursday
morning the daily papers i'll the city pub
lished telegram from Washington City
to the effect that severe storm was indi-
Gated for Wednesday night along the
Gulf coast. That is, by means OF tele-
graphic reports of the condition of the
atmosphere in louisiana it was known IN
Washington on Wednesday that storm
might be expected on Wednesday night at
New Orleans. This is reducing ba-
romctrical matters 70 something like ger
eral usefulness
In the West this department has been
used to great immediate advantage. for
the farmers now ascertain in advance of
the approach of both storms Of wind
and rain. and TAX. precautions to protect
their crop, and stock which they could
not obtain if they were not forewarned.
Let us hope that this advance i'll scien-
t;fc observations will be used to give The
people OF Louisiana tne full advantage
of TIL. previous information hereafter.
