The World discusses American Sympatmes
Gin the Late War;" in n spirit OF reckless de-
fonce OF the eternal distinction between Right
and Wrong. IL insists that orr real sympa-
tbios were with France throughout, and that
all adverse professions were iustigated by a
fondness for American votes. 1t

Comments Jy The Tribune
That commiseration for French suffering is
very general and earnest, is true; but this is
sympathy for suffering as such, and not Tor the
cause which led to it, Our people have not,
and never had, any such blind, idolatrous at
lection for France or the French as The Vorid
asserts. On the contrary, when France
in 1923 sent One Hundred Thousand
of her soldiers to put down the Spanish Lib
erals and restore the imbecile tyrant Ferdi-
p9nd VII. to absolute power, we heartily
wished that army routed and hunted home
and profoundly deplCred the success OF Its
nefarious enterprise. Again, when Republican
France in 1S40 sent an army to crush out
the Roman Republic, a vast majority OF
the American people wished that army
chased into the Mediterranean. And yet
again in 1915, when France sent an army to
assaiI Russia in the Crimca, n majority OF our
countrymen wished thc coalition defeated and
Russia triumphant. There were no Spanish,
no Roman, no Russian votes involved III these
cgscs; but our people love France less than
justice.
In The late contest, France wantOnly and
thus wickedly made war on Germany She
had not even a decent preteXt, a plausible
excuse, for so doing. The American People
sympaihised with the nation so shamefully
assailed, and would have done so had there
been no person of German birth on this CONT
ncnt. The World, in impeaching the sincerity
of others, succeeds only in dscreditins its own.

The japanese indulge in mode of worship which
is of all things adapted to the needs of religious
people of fashion, and those who consider church
house of maps These comfortable Orentals, instead
of spending their time in listening TO long sermon,
march decorously to the temple wherein their
priests are performing service throw in printed
prayer and little money, and go about their
business with satisfied conscience. If such a
custom could be made respectable" here, how
delightful it would be for the heavy fathers, who
could deposit their contributions and go homo to
Sleep After ALL il would be but q slight change in
the manner of buying prayers.

The Wilmington IN. CO. Star has been shown let
ter from Jefferson Davis to "a prominent colored
barber" of that city, who "was trusted member
of his household officials during the war;" the said
letter being full of OVERLOOKING kindness. We men
ton the circumstance not TO sheer at it, but because
it shows how stupid are those Northern people who
affirm that there is an irrecOncable hostility be-
tween the two races. Gen. Davis seems TO know
better now We don't think that he would shoot
dead colored shoemaker for a mistt, as white
scoundrel has lately done in Fannin, Miss

At the Charter Elections in this State yestcr-
day the Republicans made a reasonably clean
sweep IN Auburn and Rochester, electing
Mayor and City Council by handsome major-

was mixed, the Democrats rejecting their

ity in the City Council. Rochester has done
nobly. Last year Democratic Mayor was
elected in that city by from 400 to 500 majority,

questions his motives in rendering him guar

refers to the assurances lately made by tho
King and Parliament that the POpe's spiritual
independence in Rome should be respected.

When the incest sense of professional honor is

least an appeciative editor do for the honor OF
such combination Of virtue is to give it free
advertisement. A respectable firm OF New-York
merchants recently sent overdue note for coileo-
ton to Mcssrs. Orion & Osborne, attofneys-at-hw,
doing business o. Darlington, Wisconsin. Orton *
Osborne are the paTagons to whom we invite par
ticular attention. They replied. in due time, by
asking the New-York firm to name a sum at which
they would sell the claim. This did not meet the
views of the mercantile gentlemen, who accordingly
intmated that they preferred to have the note col
lcced in the ordinary way and their lowest price for
il was one hundred cents on the dollar. To which
