The treatment OF the Jesuits in Germany by
the imperial government has awakened wide
spread anxiety regarding them. Their expul-
sion from the Fatherland compels them to
seeka refuge elsewhere. Italy has already shut
the door in their face, Spain is well provided
with large stock already and France is not
likely to be much troubled with them for some
time to come. Austria, Catholic though it be,
it was thought might inaugurate similar line
OF policy towards the Society of Jesus to that
which has been 80 vigorously carried out in
Germany. Complaints, loud and long, were
frequently made through the press against the
"Black Internationals,' as the Fathers were
not unfrequently termed. Even some of the
liberal papers of Vienna called out for the pas
sage of laws against the Jesuits similar to
those passed in Germany. The SO -called libe-
raj press of the country in fact joined in the
cry of prosecuting them, on the supposititious
ground of interference with measures or move
ments tending to oppose the spread Of libe-
ralism. Among the subjects discussed at
the interview at Salzburg last year the ques-
ton relative to the Jesuits was brought up.

up and his policy distinctly drawn out regard
ing the course he would pursue towards the
Jesuits in case he could not bend them to his
views. An opportunity which he took id
vantage of gave him the chance to carry into
effect the policy which he had for some time
in view. The Salzburg meeting, at which
Count Andrassy who had just succeeded
Count Beust in Office, enabled Bismarck to
ascertain how his plan for the expulsion of
the Jesuits in Germany would succeed in
Austria II Count Andrassy is correctly re-
ported, he did not favor very highly Bis
marck's contemplated course. II do not be-
lieve," declared the Austrian Premier ''there
is reason to fire canons upon monks. From
this we safely infer that no rigorous policy,
such es that advocated BY the liberal press Of
Austria and Hungary, will be adopted. Per-
secution makes martyrs, and martyrs in any
cause gain degree Of sympathy which makes
a deep impression. No class Of men know
how to turn sympathy to better account than
the followers of Loyola. Germany has taken
a step which Austria, we imagine, will be slow
to initiate.

DIR. vANDERpoEL AND THE NuMANc1A.-We
have reason to congratulate the city that
through the power Of the daily press, which
fully informed the public of the facts in relation
to the Spanish war steamer Numancia, she was
ordered to the Lower Bay. She has now been
decided by Port Health Officer vanderpoel to be
can infected ship" whose condition breeds
the dread yellow fever among her inmates
whenever atmospheric conditions favor the
development Of the disease. Had DR.. Wander
poel been more prompt in his action there
would have been no occasion for the press to
interpose to guard the public health. Accord
ing to the Doctors latest order the poisonous
ship will remain at her distant anchorage till
her sick are recovered and till ten days have
elapsed after the appearance Of a case Of yellow
fever

The WEST VIRGINIA ELECTIONS yesterday
appear to have passed off quietly, notwith-
standing it was one of the closest contests ever
known in the State. The great test is in refer
ence to the adoption Of the new State constitu-
ton. According TO our dispatches, published
to-day, the voting was extremely uneven. In
Preston and Hancock counties there were
heavy majorities against the constitution, and
in Greenbrier township and county the
negroes voted as body against it.
Jacob, the independent candidate for
Governor, was considerably ahead of
Camden, the regular democratic nominee, in
and around Martinsburg, but in several other
parts Of the State Camden appeared to lead
the way. Owing to the same difficulties that
stood in the way of collecting the returns in
North Carolina recently, it is not yet known
what is the definite result. 1t is expected the
full returns will not be received for several

THE BELFAST RIcTs.-The latest dispatches
from Ireland go to show that the riotous pro-
'ceedings in Belfast are almost extinguished.
We hear, also, of arrests of rioters, and even
of the sentence of many of the more violent of
the mobbists to punishment. This hopeful
condition of affairs is due almost entirely to the
action of the military. It's realization at such
o late hour does not by any means relieve the
local civic authorities from the blame which
attaches to them for having rendered such
means of cure necessary by their corporate
inaction. The closing moments of the organ
lied movement against law and order were
exceedingly violent, the rioters firing from
windows on the police and the constabulary
officers returning the salutation in kind. 1t Is
thought that many of the mob have been
killed, but that their bodies have been
carried off secretly by their friends. The
most industrious citizens of Belfast fed from
the scene of disorder. Party and religio-
political agencies appear to have sustained
aready crushing blow in Ireland and in this
fact society will find compensation for the
shock which has just been inflicted on 1t in thu
Northern Irish borough town.

The GRAIN SHovELLERs.-All combinations
which undertake to interfere with the right of
the individual to labor upon such terms as he
sees ft are bound to go to the wall, as did that
of the grain shovellers in Brooklyn on Wednes-
day. Nobody disputes the right Of the grain
shovellers to resolve upon the rate of wages
they will demand and the conditions upon
which they are willing to work; but other men,
equally qualified, may be driven thereto by more
stringent necessity, or may estimate their SER
vice OF lower rate. These have just as full
right to make their own bargains as their
organized brothers. They have right to
work for low wages, if they will, to put bread
in their children's mouths, and both the law
and public sentiment will sustain them and
punish those who seek to violently drive them
from labor or harm them for it. Such demon
STATIONS as those which called for the large
police force TO protect the Brooklyn elevator
laborers and as the murderous ambush attack
on mining laborers last week OF Centralia, in
Pennsylvania, disgrace the dignity of labor, as
they invade our boosted freedom. They will
in all cases be frustrated by oil the force at the
command of the State, nd when they proceed
to crime should meet no mercy at the hands Of
justice, slt. .f

South CAROLINA REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
The meeting of the regular Republican State
Convention at Columbia yesterday, &C
cording to our special despatch else
where, was characteristic Of all such
gatherings in that State of late Scarcely
had the delegates reported than language
the most disgraceful and supplementary
was heard from oil parts Of the Senate
chamber, where they were assembled. Antago-
nism and virulence reigned supreme. During
the calling of the roll Elliot, the colored per-
manent President, drew pistol upon white
man with whom he was quarrelling. After
Moses had been declared the nominee Of the
republican party for Governor Judge Orr,
District Attorney Corbin, Collector Clark and
other leading republicans Withdrew from the

The Coal Question in England and
In Ireland.


In Ireland.
Since the reports about the decreasing yield
of the English coal mines have been put into
general circulation among all classes of people
various opinions have been expressed on the
matter. While number affect to consider the
rumors 'sall bosh," and others berate the un-
fortunate miners for their s'exorbitant' de-
mands for moro wages and less hours there
are persons who contend that the increased
price of fuel in England is the result of what
in this country would be called 80 put up job
on the part Of spectators in this most neces-
consumption. Be the case as it may, the price
Of coal in England at present is enormously
greater than it was at this period last year.
At this juncture letters and articles in the
Irish papers illustrate the interest the sub
ject has awakened in the Emerald Isle. The
price of coal has set thinking men to work.
Many of them claim that ireland has large and
rich coal fields, which, with increased energy
and the requisite capital to work them, will be
sufficient for long years to come to meet all the
requirements of manufacturing and household
use. The coal districts of Ireland at present
do not yield anything like a supply which
would support the theory of their ability to
meet want which, in case the English fields
should give out, such contingency would
create. No just estimate, however, can be
formed from what is being done OF present in
the Irish mines, for, like everything else in that
country, enterprise and energy arc very much
in the background. Necessity is stern master
and q little time may change the complexion
of things in that regard. From whatever causes
the increased demands in the price of fuel may
originate it is plain that English manufactur-
ers will in the end suffer from it,
The News FROM JApAN.-From Japan we
have special correspondence, dated in Yoko-
hama and Kiota at the latest moment Of the
last mail, which supplies an interesting report
of the condition of affairs which existed in that
portion of Asia on the Goth of July. The ex-
hibit of the imperial diplomatic relations with
Corea, and of the insult which the Coreans
offered to the Japanese royalty, is of much i'm
portance to the outside world; particularly so
to the people of the United States. We are
specially informed, also, of the occurrence of
variety of other events, local, commercial and
naval. The most startling item is the detail
of the wholesale murder of the members of o
large family, with the exception of male
child, at Yokohama, and Of the extraordinary
revelation and proof by this same child that
the deed was committed by policemen, who,
when arrested, confessed their guilt The
United States Consul in Kobe had very
narrow escape from death, in consequence Of
the violent assault which was made on him by
q party Of drunken Japanese. He was at
tended to by the American naval surgeons,
but remained in precarious condition Of
health.

Another "Unknown Quantity for
Louisville. glN -4t..fs r,ai..a.f
The labor reformers, who, in last February,
at Columbus, Ohio, nominated Judge Davis,
of Illinois, and Governor Parker, of New
Jersey, as their candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency of these United States,
seem to have taken the detection of their
standard bearers badly to heart The fact
that their candidates were planted too
early and did not take any root in the popu-
lar affection appears to have escaped their at
tention. Judge Davis certainly let no oppor-
tunity pass to press his claims for
wider recognition, but the Cincinnati
Convention, in nominating the Greeley
and Brown ticket, nipped his hopes
in the bud. and he gracefully gave up the
hope of blossoming into President while the
Great Farmer was in the field. Governor
Parker has drawn the same conclusion, and
both now support Mr.. Greeley.
A little party of eleven labor reformers ac-
cordingly met in Columbus on Wednesday of
this week and mournfully buried their candi-
dates without advising their followers Gf any
on the outside which way to steer their polii-
cal course in the coming canvass Yesterday,
however, a body styling themselves the Ma
tional Labor Reformers, more imposing in
numbers, met in Philadelphia to consider the
situation. One hundred and fifty-eight dele
gates are said to have been present. represent
ing twenty-seven States, and with sympathiz-
ing letters from six others. The animus
Of the members was soon declared
They could not support either Grant or
Greeley, and in their resolutions spoke with
some bitterness of the desertion of their can
didates, Davis and Parker They vented their
regret 'sthat our candidates have withdrawn
from the canvass, for what reason we
are utterly ct q loss to know"
and saw some suspicion on their
reputation" that they had been captured
by the mercenaries Of Grant 81
Greeley. It was evident that there was de-
termination among few to start a new ticket
with Mr.. Charles O'Conor of New York
and Senator Salisbury Of Delaware upon it,
but on motion it was discovered that
large majority shirked q repetition
Of the February fasco, and the Convention adj
journed after appointing committee of thirty
to confer with the straight-out democrats at
Louisville on the third of September next
which committee is there to work enthusiast
ically for the new ticket above given.
This move of tho labor reformers, while it
may give show of additional strength to the
Louisville democrats, is not very ponderous
one. The present canvass seems to be one in
which unknown quantities are plentiful
The liberal republicans and the straight-out
democrats, the democrats who will vote for
Grant, and lastly the labor reformers, are all
at present under the mask of the Great I'm
known. One thing about them is certain,
namely, that where labor reform has contested
the States its candidates have received an ex-
ceedingly limited support, and it can be safely
concluded that they will bring no great force
to swell that other unknown quantity at
Louisville. ...-...-

The ALABAMA CLAIMS ARBrrRAr1oN.-A
telegram from Geneva informs us that the
members of the Court Of Arbitration in the
Alabama claims case are busily engaged in the
work of settling up the international accounts
between the United States and Great Britain,
with the view Of squaring them off for balance
and final close Of all cash matters which
relate to the most unpleasant transaction by
which their present friendly labors were super
induced Like to the good brothers Cheeryble,
of the novel, the arbitrators do their work
pleasantly, and have thus far remained free
from attacks of dyspepsia or the blues in con-
sequence. The members of the Court will all
dine together to-day, and during the evening
afterwards attend ball which is to be given
in their honor by Mrs. Bancroft Davis In all
this we behold the pleasant side-the only
pleasant side which it ever had-of the case
of these tiresome Anglo-rebel privateers.
