course no work for the Corporation, which adj

be astonished at the showing which is made

The New Departure of the Iowa Democracy
is quite as radical as that of the great Vallan-
digham, though couched in more guarded Ian
guage. 1t recognizes the Constitution Gas it
" now exists" and swears to support it with
its present Amendments; is against Centrali-
cation, and in favor of the abstract princi-
pie of State Rights; denounces Ku-Klux,
but hopes the National Government. will
not interfere unless asked by State authori-
ties; opposes Santo Domingo on account of its
mongrel population; )" has an eye single to
revenue" and none whatever for Protection;
indorses the usual platitudes anent the wanton
extravaganza and corruption of the Admins
tration repudiates Reputation, and favors
general economy in the administration OF the
Government Omitting few stereOtyped
phrases which are the common property of all
parties out of power, the platform is decidedly
unique-for the Democraey-and some Of the
Old Hunkers, when they heard it read, must
have rubbed their eyes and wondered whether
they were in this world or the next.

Reports indicate that Paris is ref!1ing with
the pleasure-seekers and gay butterflies who
were driven out by the fierce tempest Of war.
One account says that $4,000 persons are arriv-

dents who fed during the interval which oc-

the breaking out of the civil war; but o larger
portion are undoubtedly curiosity

The Erening Post, in which was first pub
lshed the alleged private letter OF Nj.
Catacazy, the Russian Minister at Wash
in gtop, characterizing the Hon. Hamilton
Fish as corrupt and iInbecile, has since
printed a letter from the former to the
latter, which brands the alleged private letter
as an outright forgery, instigated by the
basest motives Of course, this is conclusive,
especially since there is no countervailing evil
dence. Indeed, the naked fact that Gen.
Ignatieff Ito whom the pretended letter
Of NJ. Catacazy was addressed) has never
been Minister of Foreign Affairs Gas
the letter assumed that he was), is of itself
decisive. A Minister at foreign capital ID
not likely to be ignorant of the name of his
official chief.
If, then, any such pretended letter has
actually been transmitted to our President or
his Secretary of State (and we must presume
that The Post had some foundation for Its
statement), we ask whether our Government
ought not to trace out the author OF this
forgery, and hand him over to the tribunal
empowered to deal with such criminals
Such forgery was calculated to embroil
the Governments of two great peoples
hitherto existed, to their mutual advantage
and satisfaction. There is a claim OF damages
for alleged breach of contract low pending
against Russia, with which this forgery would
seem TO have had some relation, and of which we
speak only to say that we are sure Mr.. FISH
has not failed to deal with it as became bis
exalted position and spotless reputation.

less asserted and enforced them; put
this cannot have embarrassed the reia-
tons of the two Governments, nor even
caused GOODNESS between them, since inc
one can ask no more than justice, wh'ch
the other will be ready to concede. Whatever
may be the merits or dement's OF this ciaiin'
it cannot embroil the two nations OF ther
governments so long as both are prepared 10

OUTRAGE At THE SOUTH.

When the Special Correspondent who is still
developing the anomalous condition of the
South first exposed and proclaimed the iniqui-
ties and mischiefs of Negro and Carpet-Bag
misgovernment in South Carolina, the Demo-
cratic and Rebel journals were in ecstasies.
They copied and emphasized his honest and
faithful exposures, affecting establishment at
their appearance in THE TRIBUNE, and imply
ing that nothing like them had ever been seen
there before. Some of them even dared to
intimate that the writer had not obeyed his
instructions in thus holding up Republican
misrulers to reprObatiOn and Odium.
Now THE TRIBUNE is, before all other con-
siderations, q newspaper 1t expects to outlive
many New Departures and party reorganiza-
tons. 1t is glad when the facts do credit to its
political compatriots; but it prints them whether
they do or do not. And the correspondent in
question was expressly instructed, Gas our cor
respondents always are), to ascertain the truth
and report it with perfect fairness and IN q
spirit of impartial justice. Journals which
express surprise at this impeach their own con-
duct, not that Of THE TRIBUNE.
Our Special Correspondent is still at work,
and still obeying his instructions to the letter.
The journals which took such delight In his
exposure of Carpet-Bag rascalities In South
Carolina might further edify their readers by
copying his successive developments of Ku-
Klux outrages and vilahies; but they are
all suddenly stricken blind and dumb. So
long as the facts he unfolded seemed ealcu-
lated to damage the Republicans, they gloried
in reiterating them, but no longer The in
slant those facts seemed calculated to tell
against the Democrats, they ignored them
Messieurs this may be clever craftsmanship,
but it is pitiful Journalism.

just now, when the plea of insanity is again
reappearing in extenuation in courts of law,
any intelligent discussion of the points thereby
involved in criminal jurisprudence is impor-
tant. The American Association of Superin-
tendents of Lunatic Asylums has just con-
cluded its session at Toronto, and report of
it's proceedings indicates that the members are
inclined to examine carefully into reasons
which occasion such a wide difference among
experts as to the symptoms and evidence of
moral insanity. Actually, almost no reliance
is now placed by judges and juries upon the
testimony of so-called experts in criminal cases
where insanity is pleaded.

Gen. Trochu seems to have been waiting for
an opportunity to relieve himself of his pent-
up feelings. Heretofore he has maintained
soldierly silence, but now that he has opened
the flood-g of his talk, he is as garrulous
as our venerable Senator from Kentucky. One
of the most remarkable things which occur in
his Aree-days' speech is the charge that the
Communist instruction was but continue
ton of the German war, and that the expelled
Prussian spies. returned to Paris to head the
revolt of the Commune. This sounds like the
utterance of mind diseased and distempered
bY grief and defeat.

A carefully prepared summary of the doings
of the State Legislature, which adjourned on
the Esd of April, published in THE TRIBUNE
this morning, does not show much general
legislation for the benefit of the people
of the State of New-York. One would
suppose that, after all the hue and cry of the
Democracy about Reform, they would have
at least made some pretense of Retrenchment
But now that we have fair statement of the
whole business of Mr.. Tweed's Legislature, its
chief vocation appears to have been the pas
sage of bills designed for the purpose of
plundering our unfortunate city.

The surse of Canaan seems to have aIigI,ted

The curse of Canaan seems to have ailgilted
with especial weight on Cadet Smith, his COM
plexion apparently making it impossible that
he should in any case have the same treat
ment a white boy would have received in his
place. He has been attacked with virulence
due only to his color, and defended with an
eanestness springing from the same reason.
And now, after three courts-martial and two
sentences, his case is finally settled by execn-
tive iBterpOsitiOn. He was sentenced by the
court which tried him TO dismissal, and the
supreme authority, while approving his SEN
tence, commutes his punishment to another
years residence at the Academy. There does
not seem to be any sufficient reason for this
special measure which is melted out to this
one Cadet. If he is gailty of the oflenses
charged be should be punished like apother,
and if his faults are venial ones, it would
seem that some more regular and practicable
punishment could be found than this

MIR. WASHBURNE And The COMMUNE.

MIR. WASHBURNE AND The COMMUNE.
A spiteful paragraph, printed in a journal Of
London which serves as an organ for the ex-
in the shades Of Chiselhurst, states that Mr..
Washburne, our Minister at Paris, is seriously
compromised by his communications with the
insurrectionary government of the Commune.
This is a pitiful calumny, the offspring Of a
mean spirited envy. The conduct Of Mr.. Wash
burne during the war, and especially during
the siege of Paris, was marked by such dis
crehon, such courage and energy, that it gained
the respect and esteem of the French and Ger
man people, and extorted the generous and
voluntary praise of the British Government in
the House of Commons. We do not recall
an instance in our diplomacy of more bnl-
circumstances of such gravity and delicacy.
1t proves what we have constantly asserted,
that man of experience in affairs, of sufi-
Gent culture and knowledge of the world
taken from the active pursuits. of American
life, is apt to make better Minister, when
there is anything to be done, than if he had
wasted his life in dawdling about an embassy
The diplomatic body in Paris was composed
of the elite of the aristOcracy of Europe. The
Paris mission is always the highest prize in
the service of every nation. Yet posi-
lively the only Minister who has made
any figure in nll these most important events
is the American Envoy. He has received from
the Government of Prussia the warmest
Acknowledgements of his services; and yet he
has held the balance of impartiality 30 evenly
adjusted that he has gained the confidence
and affection of the Republican leaders of
France. 1t is natural that such success and
such prominence has excited among the par
tisans of the late Empire the spites and
jealousies indicated by the report to which we
have referred.
1t is useless to repeat that any such charge
is absurd. 1t is founded upon distortion OF
the facts which arc infinitely to the credit OF

IMPORTANT QUEsTIoN.-ShdH a Man Rat
tie Sheet Iron ?-This important question
is now before the court in the case of A.
Gazlay VS.. NJ. Clements. It was heard yes
terday by Judge Murdoch, on an applica-
tion for temporary restraining order.
Mr.. GaZlay lives on the north side of Hatha-
way street, near Baymiller. On the oppo-
site side of Hathaway street is the shop of
MIR. Clements, where he is engaged in
manufacturing material for jails, etc, of
iron. Mr.. GaZlay says that he erected his
house for Il dwelling in 1870, and that the
neichborhood is full Of dwellings. But
since that time Mr.. Clements has placed his
shop on the opposite side OF the street, and
has DESTROYED his peace and that Of his
family. The noise of rattlng sheets Of iron
thrown on smooth surfaces OF wood, and
the reyerberations of hammers falling on
riyet-hedds, produced such penetrating
metallic noise as to render life insupporta-
Bile. He asks that the noise be stopped. A
number of his neighhors gave atidaylts
sDeakine i'll of those noises. ali admit that
if prevents conversation in their houses.
Once funeral sermon was prevented by 1t,
and IN auction sale had to be adjourned on
account of the inability Of the auctioneer
to get bis voice higher than the din of the
iron, Several females testified to headaches
and Mains in the head, caused by this noise.
MIR. Clements produces the affidavit OF
saloon. keeper close by, TO the effect that the
noise don't hurt him. To this Mr. Gazlay
rcplies, in an affidavit, suggesting that the
saioon-keeper is pecuniarlly interested In
having lot OF w0rkmen near him.
The case was taken under adyisement.-

A SINGULAR CAsE.-John Brandt, q
Young man OF prepossessiDg appearance,
stopped at the Liberty House few days
since, stating to the proprietor that he had
friends who resided at 110, Thirty first
street, New York. During the day (Mon.
day) he seemed wild and excited, and left
his room at about 10 o'clock in the morn
ing without his clothing, and walked out
up the street some distance before he was
discovered. On Tuesday morning his man.
her indicated so clearly that he was laboring
under alteration of mind that it was
deemed necessary to place restrictions upon
his movements. He was accordingly, on
Tuesday morning, taken in charge by Col.
Kusey, our sheriff, and committed tojail.-

FIRES IN Observation-Disclosures,
Aug 10.-A fire commenced tbis morning
in the extensive sugar-house Of Mexican,
Newhall Il Borie, above Church alley, and
back of Sd street. The fire originated in
what is known a> the back-house where

purified SO us to be used again. Foitllnatc-
ly it was detached from the main building,
about ten stories high, and the tircmen
succeeded in preventing its spreading.

damage done to the building aud about
5000 barrels of bonc-black.
A fire on John street destroyed the soap
