should not be entirely In the power OF q naval
commander-in-chief to say that the whole
country shall be prevented from receiving
other information than he, in his wisdom and
prudence, sees fit to forward to the Navy De-
partment. The press should profit by the
experience had in this case, and have it SO ar
ranged that its representatives abroad shall be
afforded every facility by United States
officials to obtain and forward all news that it
is important should receive early publica-
ton. No possible harm can arise there
from. No correspondent will write and
no paper will publish that which can
benefit an enemy and thereby injure our
own cause. The government should SO in
struct its representatives in foreign countries,
and thus give the press the opportunity and
advantages 1t is entitled to, and at the same
time 1t should be careful never to select for the
command Of On important squadron like that

LAwLEssNEss IN FLoRIDA.-So long as
bands of armed and disguised men al the
South attempt to rescue prisoners from the
custody Of federal officers so long will public
opinion in other portions of the Union discredit
the assertions Of interested State officials, con-
servative editors and political conventions that
order reigns supreme in the late rebel States,
and that the laws are impartially enforced
and everywhere respected. Several officers of
the United States detective service recently
arrested gang of counterfeiters in Georgia
and Florida, and took them, together with
their counterfeiting apparatus, bogus coin,
&C., to Fernandina, Fla, where they were
examined before the United States Commits
sioner and held for trial. The night of their
committsl to prison large mob Of disguised
men attempted to rescue the prisoners from
the authorities, and their design was only frus-
Eated by ruse on the part Of the officers.

rho Papacy and the German Empire
Bismarck and Antonelli.

Bismarck and Ant0nelli.
For some time past it has been known that
the Catholics of Germany have not been
sufficiently submissive to the leadership Of
Prince Bismarck. Some two days ago we
learned that Bismarck had written to Anto-
nelli a letter complaining of the course of
conduct pursued by the German Catholics.
At the time there were some who were dis
posed to doubt the correctness Of the report.
1t is now, however, no longer doubtful that
the German Catholics are annoying Bismarck
and that Bismarck has been in communication
with Antonelli; for, as will be seen from our
telegraphic columns to-day, the Prince has
just written to certain members of the Ger
man Rechstag, informing them that he has
it from Cardinal Antonelli that the Pope
disapproves of their conduct. 1t is rather
funny to see Bismarck counting the Pope.
But it is very wise. In spite of the downfall
of the Temporal Power the Holy Father has
power in the world, and Bismarck knows that
in GROWING the edifce which he has so
laboriously reared the influence of the Pope
is not to be regarded as valueless. On the
other hand the Pope knows, and so too does
Antonelli, that in the final settlement of the
temporalities Bismarck and Emperor William
and the whole strength Of the restored Ger
man empire may be useful.
Mr.. RAMSEY AND JUSTICE BARNARD In
the Supreme Court, General Term, an i'm
portant decision was given yesterday touch
ing one phase Of the ong-contested Ramsey
suit against the Erie Railway Company. The
point decided WAS the appeal from the order
of Judge Brady, growing out Of the refusal of
the plaintiff to have the case tried before
Judge Barnard, on the ground that be was
prejudiced-.the appeal being dismissed. All
three judges-Chief Justice Ingraham and
Justices Cardozo and Barnard-presented writ
ten opinions in the case, the substance of
which will be found in our legal columns.
While the Chief Justice confines himself to the
strictly legal points, his associates trace to
their legitimate sequence the results of suitors
in the courts being allowed to refuse their
causes to be tried before judges to whom they
happen to take dislike. They contend
further that 1t is the duty Of the judiciary to
stick by one another, and that any deviation
from this brings the judicial tribunal into dis
grace and contempt.

The Bottom Dropping Out Of tho ''Jar.

The Bottom Dropping Out Of tho ''Jar.
sies.o
The newspapers have been publishing &C.
counts of the sudden caving in of portions Of
the territory of our little neighbor across the
Hudson. These phenomena have occurred
on the line of one of the canals in the State.
If they had happened on the line of some Of
the Western railroads-Rock Island, for ex-
ample-perhaps they would have occasioned
little surprise. 1t is about time the bottom
dropped out of some of these fancy railroad
concerns and honest men thereby saved from
the whirlpool of pecuniary destruction. The
Camden and Amboy monopoly, having been
engulfed by that moge insatiate railroad
dragon, the Penhsylvania Central, may afford
some clue to the caving in Of the bot
tom of the New Jersey monopoly tub.
Be that as it may, what with earthquakes and
subterranean caverns, spout-holes and peach
worms, the miserable state of her public high
ways and the wretched condition Of official
affairs there generally, New Jersey is certainly
getting in q very bad way. Some second
Daniel ought to come to judgment over there,
for we know not what day may bring forth.
Decisien ON Dr.. Lanahau's Application fog
Mandamus.
The dense and deepening fog of doubt 50
long overshadowing the Methodist Book Com
Germ begins to lift little. Judge Barnard, Of
the Supreme Court, before whom DR.. Lanahau
made application for mandamus to examine
its books of account, rendered a decision yes
terday adversely to the application. He
handles the Doctor without gloves. He sets
him forth as evincing strongly reprehensible
litigious procivities and in marked hostility to
the interests of the Concern. After showing
that the Doctor has no possible legal ground
for asking mandamus, the motives that
induced the application, and his unwar-
rantable attempt to fish up evidence In sup
port of his charges Of corruption, made, as
alleged, without proof, he clinches the matter
by quoting Scriptures very unusual thing;
by the way, for this Judge to do, but most
pertinent in its application to this case-as
showing that q house divided against itself
cannot possibly stand. The effectual quietus
put on the Doctor by the scathingly written
opinion of Judge Barnard accompanying the
decision, an abstract Of which will be found
elsewhere, will be likely to cause the Doctor
to hide his diminished head and keep out Of
the courts in future.

A correspondent of the London
Daily Telegraph, writing on: the 18th
ult., says: ..~ - 80
The Emperor enjoys perfect health,
and daily takes an airing on foot or
horseback. There have been no arri-
walls of late at the castle. AL reports
about a second visit Of the Empress,
and hcr, presence here, arc incorrect.
On Friday, during q walk through
the park with several gentlemen Of
his suite, the Emperor spoke freely on
the chances OF his restoration. "lt
would be wcll,". he said, '''if it were
publicly understood that i Isncvcr &in-
tend to rcmount the throne on the
strength of the military pronuncia-
mento-by the aid Of the soldiey, just
us little as by that Of Prussia. | nm
the sole Sovereign who governs, next
to tho grace of God, by tho will Of
the people; and I shall never be un-
faithful to the origin o. my authority.
The whole people, which has four
times approved of my election, must
recall me by its deliberate votes, else
shall,nevcr return to France. The
army possesses no moro right toplace
me on the throne than the lawyers
and loafers to push nc from it. Tho
French people, whose Sovereign |
am, has the sole decision" Tho En-
pcror related that, shortly after the
plcJiscite of May, 1870, the Minister Of
War showed him a list containing the
names Of several hundred officers who
sccrctly-in q few cases almost open
ly-had engaged in agitations favora-
Die to tho Orleans dynasty Being
asked again hy the Minister what
ste1 IS should bc taken, the Emperor
replied, Mono whatever" Thus"
said Napoleon, "thc officers who pub
.Ii$h the present protest do not deserve
to be charged with having turned
anti-Bonapartists Oh account Of the
ill.succcss Of our arms" This cor
respondent profrsScs to have been
informed, on the best authority: that
for the last ten years . conspiracy
has existed for the object of flooding
the French army with officers Of
Orlcani<t sympathics. This state
ment, if true, carries out the views
expressed by the Emperor. $685..

The PariG Changes.

Tue changes in the tariff duties that
have now come into effect, the lst Of
January, have been heretofore noted.
Some fifty drug articles so on tho
free list, and some lC"ty others are
much reduced. The duty on tea is
reduced 10 cents that is, from-25 to
Is cents, and coffee 9 cents (trom25
TO 81 cents pound: and the reduction
on the bulk OF the sugar imported is
I Of a cent per pound. These rcduc-
tions might be expected to make
themselves felt in cheapcning prices,
but whether the effect will he imme-
diate or not remains to be seen, rs it
lis claimed that . large part Of the
stock on hand in these articles has
been laid in atthe old rates. On the
other hand, however, it may be urged
that nothing except goods actually
need for consumption has :.bocn taken
out Of bond for the past two months
and therefore the stocks on hand
with the dealers ought to DO propor-
tionately light. There arc important
changes also relating to iron and
steel, stcef getting more protection
and pig iron less protection than by
the old tariff. The change on steel
rails is an addition of about five dol
lars per ton. When steel rails were
first imported their cost abroad was
ELS per ton, and at IS per cent the
duty was $40 per tom while now they
are bought or invoiccd to agents
rather, at 91O per ton, making the
duty $3.50 nearly. BY the tariff
come in force now the rate is ono and
onc-fourth cent per pound, or s27 per
ton. On pig iron from tho duty, fixed
in 1864, is uino dollars per ton, and
now it is be 81, which is to somc OK
tent neutralized by tho maintenance
of the former rate, eight dollars per
ton on old rails, or wrought scrap
iron,', rs it is called in tho law. "Cast
scrap iron" is to pay but six dollars
pcr ton by the new law instead Of IS,
but tho importation is of no conse,
qucncc as to quantity. Worn rails,
shipped from English and other for,
cisn railroads, have come in IN i'm,
mense quantities during the past five
years. There are very considerable
changes on brandics, wines and other
spirits, also. r.

The correspondent Of tho London
Times thinks that Paris will not resist
much longer. But neither correspon-
dents nor newspapers arc iniaAible.
\ month or two ago, it seemed impos-
sible that France could put an army
in tho field to replace the regulars
captured or killed, or coopcd up III
Metz. Yet France has now an organ
lied force of ubout 100000 men, who,
if they cannot advance victorious!Iy,
can, at least. retreat without .coitl-
sion. Paris may hold out until the
spring, and-when the capital falls,
three fourins of France will still be
Iunsubdued. The Germans have be-
fore them an, arduous task. They
will accomplish it-at the cost of
moro men, more time, moro money
