evils. But in a free State q disfranchised
lass, especially when it is that of the most
Enlightenment, is perpetual menace. There
c, n be no proper peace while it exists As it
used to be said, and to be truly said, of
slavery, tnat it was suppressed civil war, so it
may be as truly said of apolitioal community,
in which leading part is arbitrarily disfran-
chsed, that it is smoulderDg strife; from
time to time the fire will leap out in angry
flame.
general amnesty, the removal of all
disquaifcations resulting from the Rebellion,
should be heartily declared the policy of
the Republican party. 1t was long since de-
manded by some of its most eminent leaders.
The New York Tribune, for instance, has
steadily insisted upon its wisdom and there
are many who thought its demand to be pre-
mature when it was made who are fully per
suaded that the time is now ripe. The em-
phatic declaration of the Republicans of Ohio
shows how profound aud how general the
conviction of the wisdom of this measure has
become in the party. Aud it is Of great inn
portance that 1T should be the work of the
Republicans, that it may be seen not to be a
concession to the spirit of the Ku-klux by the
party which the Ku-klux supports, aud OF
which it is an agency AS the disabilities
were imposed because it was thought that
the public welware required them, so they
may now be removed for the same reason
For the public welfare imperatively demands
Republican ascendancy, and that is in sone
degree imperilled by policy of continued
disfranchisement. The conditions of national
pacification cannot be complete until uesty
is universal, and for every reason that hual
measure should be the work of the party of
liberty.

THE BLACK SEA QUESTION.

From the Government Messenger, So. Petersburg.
For fifteen years Russia has strictly fGlfled
the obligations of the treaty of Paris, one
rous as some of them were for her dignity.
Meanwhile political events had made con-
siderable changes in the provisions of this
treaty, and in course of time the position Of
European powers in their relations toward,
each other had become essentially modified
1t was impossible for Russia to submit any
longer to the restrictions which had been i'm
posed upon her on the Black Sea, which bathes
the Russian coasts, after the international
relations of the other States had become so
remarkably altered. The Imperial Cabinet
notified to Europe by the Imperial Ohducei-
lor's circular of the 10Th of October that d. no
longer considered itself bound by the restric-
tions relating to the Black Sea, and that his
Majesty the Emperor had resumed his full
sovereign rights upon that sea, leaving at the
same time the other sovereigns free to resume
their rights in their entire extent. Not
witbstandiDg the violent aud biassed declara-
tions of many organs of the European press,
the great powers which had signed the treaty
of Paris did not look upon our circular as a
provocation addressed to Europe, nor as an
indication of secret plans against her peace,
but as frank and moderate notification; aud
they resolved, at the suggestion of the
Government of the North German Confedera-
| ton, to assemble in conference for the
| purpose OF bringing this notification of Rus
sia into harmony with the Treaty of 1885,
Our Cabinet gladly accepted the invitation to
take part in this conference, more especially
as in the circular of the 18th of October it
had already been stated that his ajesty was
disposed to conclude any new international
agreement whose object it should be to
strengthen the prospects of universal peace.
While securing the dignity of Russia the
labors of the conference were greatly i'm
peded and delayed by the contemporary poll
tical events; but from the very beginning all
the powers expressed readiness to
solve the questions in spirit
of peace and justice. In yesterday number
of the GOCe7nment Messenger a telegram was
printed announcing that new treaty had
been signed at the London Conference which
abolishes those articles of the Treaty Of Paris
that limited the sovereign rights of Russia
and Turkey on the Black Sea. There can be
no doubt that not only all Russians, but all
friends of peace and justice, will heartily
rejoice at this work of European diplomacy.
1t limits no ones rights, it does not demand
any sacrifices, while it has restored rights
which had been violated, removed symbol
of international dstrust, and strengthened
the intimate relations of the European States.
1t is e-eminently work of peace and
justice.

AN ORDINANCE CREATING A LOAN FOR
THE EXTENSION OF THE WATER
WORKS.
Section l. The Select and Common Councils
of the city of Philadelphia do ordain, That the
authorized 10 borrow at not less than par, on
and twenty-five thousand dollars for the further
extension of the Water Works. For which inte-
rest not to exceed the rate of six per cent per
annum shall be paid halfyearly, on the first
days of January and July, at the Office of the
City Treasurer.
The principal of said loan shall be payable
and paid at the expiration of thirty years from
the date of the same, and not before without
the consent of the holders thereof; and the
certificates therefor, in the usual form of the
certificates of city loan, shall be issued In such
amounts as the lenders may require, but not for
any fractional part of one hundred dollars, or,
if required in amounts of five hundred
or one thousand dollars; and it shall be ex-
pressed in said certificates that the loan therein
mentioned and the interest thereof are payable
free from all taxes.
Section 2. Whenever any loan shall be
made by virtue thereof there shall be by
force of this ordinance annually appropri-
ated out of the income of the corpo-
rate estates and from the sum raised by
taxation, a sum sufficient to pay the interest on
said certificates; and the further sum of three
tenths of one per centum on the par value of
such certificates SO issued shall be appropriated
quarterly out of said income and taxes to
sinking fund, which fund and its accumulations
are hereby especially pledged for the redemp-
ton and payment of said certificates.

TAX xREFoRM BY ABSTRACT PRINCIPLE
From the N. Y. Times.

From the ~ Y. Times.
Our entire system of raising the national
revenues has been the growth of special
emergencies, and the result of a varying con-
test between interests of diverse strength
and importance. 1t would be impossible to
construct any general principle capable of
covering all its multiplied anomalies, Just as
it is impossible to trace any single financial
or economical law which was consistently
kept in view during its formation. Curtailed
as it hiI been of many useless and unproduc-
tive taxes, the system remains, by the
confession o. all parties, full of crudities
and irregularities. This being tho case, it
would appear at first sight eminently desira-
BILE that some comprehensive principle
should be devised to guide the work of re-
form. What has grown without method would
thus, in the estimation of various theorists,
assume harmonious proportions by the opera
ton OF scientific rule, and if once we get hold
OF the guiding string at the proper end, We
should certainly, by carefully following it,
get cut of our labyrinth of revenue problems
with both profit and satisfaction to the nation

RENDERING WooD FIREpRooF..oWe can
scarcely expect that the building OF WOODEN
houses will hereafter in all eases be Forbidden
by law, and no .hreproof material has as YET
been discovered which can take the place oi
the wood which now enters into tue c"nSl[uc
t;on of both brick and stone houses. Iron
beams and columns have proved entirely ina
deouate to withstand an intense neat !hey
are. under such circumstances, but little, II at
ali better than wooden ones. They twist and
curl up to such an extent that IN Chicago,
buildings, it is said, fell down owing to the
heat from neighboring fires We can, how
ever, with but little trouble and expense, rem
der wood almost as passive with regard to fire
az brick or stone; and we think that TINS pre-
caution should be insisted on by municipal au'
thorities.
The process to which We alludc, and on
which there exists no patent, so that any one
who likes can try it, is briefly as follows: The
dried lumber is soaked for a short time IN u
solution of soluble glass; a slicate of soda or
potash and then immersed in bath Of lime
water In this way the sicate OF soda IS de-
composed and silicate Of lime formed IN the
pores of the wood. .a
This substance occurs in nature as mine
raj known as Wollastonlte, and is both hire
proof and insolublc III water, so that wood once
treated in this way will never change its quail
ties. Soluble glass is largely manufactured In
this country, and used for variety ofpurpoSes.
