The death of the venerable Archbishop
Spalding, of Baltimore, amid the mourning in
the Catholic Church caused by the loss of one
of its brightest ornaments, recalls question
that was the subject of animated discussion
after the demise of 10 less eminent prelate,
Archbishop Hughes, of New York. This is
the long-expected Cardinals hat to which
America is entitled, and which, it was said,
would have been conferred on either Of the
aforementioned prelates had not Death
claimed them for higher dignity. At the
approaching Consistory of the Catholic Church,
to be held in the Vatican this month, con.
siderable number of scarlet hats will likely be
distributed by Pope Plus TX. When we con-
slider the influential and important position
occupied by the Catholic Church in the United
States, and the vast number of its children,
it is but reasonable to expect that one of these
scarlet hats will find its way across the At
lantic. The South American bishops are said
to entertain sanguine hopes that the desired
dignity will be conferred on one of their num-
ber yet it is not easy to see what claims they

brethren in North America. Intelligence,
education, enterprise and constantly in
creasing power are the qualities that
distinguish the great republic from
its misnamed imitators in the South,
and the presence Of one of the
Sacred College here would undoubtedly have
the effect of binding the Catholics Of the
United States closer to the Holy See, and
would be a recognition of the great services
done by them for the Holy Father in his hour
of need. In the selection of an American pre-
late worthy of being invested with the dignity
of Cardinal the name of Archbishop McClos-
key suggests itself. His reputation and
position place him foremost among his
brethren in this country, and render him
the most conspicuous candidate for the scarlet
hat New York is the most important diocese
in the United States and the noble character
and profound erudition of Archbishop McClos-
key give him commanding influence in the
American Church. Among the twenty -four
hats now at the disposal of the Roman Pontiff
it will be strange if one shall not find worthy

into the Sacred College has considerably
abated during the long reign of Pho Mono, and
an American Cardinal might exercise an i'm

Of the Vatican.

PROFESSOR MORSE WRITES TO THE HERALD,
discussing an old controversy that was worn
threadbare about twenty years ago. Whether
Lafayette ever said or wrote the words
imputed to him by the Know Nothngs of that
time as his distinct opinion, whether he only
quoted them to condemn them, as the Catholics
maintained, or whether he ever uttered them
at all is of very little moment now. One way
or the other 1t does not impair in the slightest
the memory Of the venerable prelate just
deceased, nor need The worn-out story fret for
an instant the white-haired father of the
electric telegraph, still, happily, in our midst.
The good old Father Morse, we are sure, does
injustice to our correspondent when he thinks
it possible that the latter should imagine him
dead. Men like Professor Morse do not pass
away in this age of gratitude unnoticed-men
whose existence are epochs in the worlds
advance. 1t is gratifying and emblematic Of
two great collateral successes-the telegraph
and the HERALD-to learn from the Professor
himself that he has our journal laid before
him every morning, with his rolls and coffee
food for the mind and food for the BODY. This
is as it should be. Long may the Professor
live to digest botb unannoyed by the polemics
OF quarter OF century gone by

out going into the details or merits of this
question we may assert that nothing is more
certain than that the Indians cannot
be permitted to stand in the way of the pro-
gress and development of the country. There
must be railroads and white settlements
through their Territory stretching in the direc-
ton Of Mexico, New Mexico and the Pacific.
Nor will il be long, with the railroad progress
and growth of Texas, before there will be o
line to the city of Mexico through the rich
mineral and tropical regions of that neighbor-
ing country. The city Of Mexico is nearer
New York than San Francisco, and with a
railroad to Camargo, as projected by the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway Com
pany, it would not be long before we could
travel In five or six days from New York to
the famous city of Montezuma. From thence,
too, there will be in time railroad to
Acapulco or Mazatlan, opening new
and shorter route to Australia and
the islands Of the Pacific Ocean.
Thus we see, then, the rapid strides
that are being made to traverse the Continent
by railroads in every direction. The accom-
plishment of these projects sooner or later,
and certainly at no distant future, is newt
able. They are the great agents of civilization,
progress and wealth. No country is 80 favor
ably situated as this for railroad development,
and In none will be seen such mighty results.
There is room enough for all the great trans
continental lines projected, and let all be en-
couraged.

I. Mr.. Gladstone and His Dimculti.s.

| mr. Gladstone and HIS DimcuIttes.
| Mr.. Gladstone has most assuredly been Q
successful Prime Minister. He has carried
several great measures OF reform. The daring
and the success Of his Irish reform policy
have secured for him g place on the select roll
OF honor of English statesmen. 1t now, how
ever, begins to appear that in the matter Of
domestic reform he has attempted too much.
Never, perhaps, were there so many domestic
questions demanding attention, dividing the
sentiments Of the people, and by the imps-
riousness with which they insist upon. solution,
irritating political parties. Ireland is not
satisfied with what has been done for her.. The
home rule movement, which, though not yet
formidable, may give trouble to future English
statesmen, is abundant proof that Ireland does
not mean to be satisfied with anything which,
England can give. Then again, Ireland has
her school question. Scotland, however, is
scarcely more cOntented than Ireland. The
educational question in Scotland demands the
immediate attention of the government, and
the difficulty of the government is in
creased by the fact that Scotland does
not very well know what she wants.
In addition to the Scottish and Irish questions
the purely English questions are almost num-
berless. There are the Collier and Ewelme
scandals, as they are called, one or both Of
which may bring censure on government.
There is the Licensed Victuallers' bill :
there is the UNCONVENTIONAL education
question; there is the Megmra Commission
trouble; there is the army retirement propo-
sal; there is the Miners bill, and there are
many other questions besides. Mr.. Gladstone
has on his hands a big, heavy, difficult
task this session. All this, too, apart from
the trouble which has suddenly arisen in con-
nectiOn with the Alabama claims and the
work of the Joint High Commission. How is
Mr.. Gladstone to face all these dificulties2
There are those who see in the near future the
failure of the present English Ministry. 1t Is
notorious that Mr. Disraeli and Earl Derby
and the other chiefs of the tory party are full
of hope. 1t will unquestionably be lively
session. The tories have q chance, il
they know how to use it. 1t will not
be wonderful if, through the divisions
of the liberals and the pressure Of the tories,
an appeal to the people should be found a me-
cessity, Mr.. Gladstone testing his strength at
the polls. At the same time it is impossible
for us to admit that in the present condition
of Great Britain the tories could remain in
power for three weeks, or that any other
Minister than Mr.. Gladstone is able to stand
by the helm in the Immediately approaching
storm. For some time past Mr.. Gladstone
has had but one possible rival; but Lord
Derby, to the surprise and vexation of many,
has voluntarily declared his adhesion to the
policy of the tories. At the close of the
present session of Parliament the reasonable
is that for good OF evil Mr.. Glad
stone will still be Prime Minister of Great
Britain.

MOVING FOR GRANT.-A Grant Central Cam

A PRACTICAL CIVIL SERVICE REFORM
President Grant has practical way of setting
about civil service reform which is not accept
able to ofice-holders of a certain description
or to those who are simply political reformers.
When the rascalities of the general order
business were proved to his satisfaction, the
President went to the root of the evil by
ordering the abolition of the system.
Now that the abuses existing in
the New York Custom House are
exposed, he wastes no time in beating about
the bush, but bags his game at once by order
ing the United States District Attorney to pro-
coed against every officer who has been shown
to have received bride and against every per-
son who has offered to bride an official. Grant
deals with dishonest public employees as be
dealt with the Southern rebels-he marches
directly on their lines. At this rate the
GROWERS who abuse the President had better
be contented to remain out Of Office.

BACK AGAIN AT THE BEGINNING. -The
American case on the Alabama claims is the
official correspondence, boiled down, of Mr..
Charles Francis Adams, our Minister at Lon
don, during the war of our rebellion, and the
British case is only an enlargement of the
surly answers and excuses of Lord John Rus
sell to the pungent complaints of Mr.. Adams.
England submits her case to the arbitrators
agreed upon we submit our case, and here
we stand by the treaty, in leaving the judg-
meut to the Court. But England demands q
modification of our case, and she must have
1t or she will withdraw from the Court. What
then, can we do? We can only stand by our
case and the treaty. and leave to England the
responsibility and the consequences Of upset
ting the treaty. A year Of war with England
would make us completely Independent of
English manufactures, Whereas otherwise, we
may be kept paying tribute to English cotton,
woollen and iron mills for fifty years TO come.
THERE IS No PLACE LIKE RoMB.-It Is re-
ported in o German paper-the VdterIdnd-
that in recent conversation with some
Roman Catholic visitors, Count Andrassy,
the Austrian Prime Minister, suggested that
there was no place now for the Pope but
Rome that it was the position and the policy
Of Austria to maintain her present friendly
relations with Italy, and that che knew Of no
Catholic Power, not excepting Austria, which
was in position to offer an asylum to the
Pope" The Holy Father has evidently re-
signed himself to this opinion; but 10 the
event of the restoration of the empire II
France this condition of things will doubtless
be changed. and the time is fast approaching
when there must be change of the presen
uncertain and unsatisfactory state of things II
