of the experience Of thirty odd years ago,
could only be justified by most pressing
urgency; but as the army has been recalled
we need hazard no conjectures, but wait I'M
til details come by mail.
The interest which such step would have
excited in England twenty years ago would
have been intense, but now we doubt if Eng
land would raise finger to prevent Russia's
schemes in these regions. She is a! present
engaged in trying to push railroad through
Persia to Hindoostan, and it would take
Russia twenty years of war against an in
domitable race to gain an advantage equal to
that given to England by such line Of COM
municatiOn.
For our part we look on the whole Eastern
question as somewhat of humbug. The
sick man IN Europe, as Turkey has long been
called, is getting well, and the sign-board of
Catherine the Great, which pointed to Con-
stantnople, may rot uselessly into oblivion.
A railroad sending its branches northward
and eastward from Persia would shortly bring
the civilization of Europe TO the mysterious
which was the starting point of the
Aryan tribes, if not the very cradle of the
human race. And civilized Tartary may
put new aspect on all questions connected
with the respective dominions of England
and Russia in Asia, and bring the Oldest
home of humanity in daily contact with the

Liberian Emigration.

We had good hopes that we had heard the
last Of attempts to depOrt cOlOred people from
the United States to Africa. The American
Colonization Society had its origin in the firm
belief OF a great many religious and philan-
thrOpic people in ante-be1lum days that the
truest kindness to the race was to return them
to the land from which they originally came.
Perhaps the effort was neither unwise nor
unworthy of its promoters in the era of slavery
and fugitive slave laws. Charitable men who
saw in it the only relief from the slave block
and the auction mart and the system which
placed human beings at the absolute disposal
of masters who were in some instances mer-
ciful and just, but in others monstrous tyrants,
might be properly persuaded that their scheme
employed the only possible means of the
amelioration of the condition of the inferior
race. It is not worth while to discuss now
whether they were right or wrong then, but
whatever arguments justified Liberian emil
grafton previous to the war are invalidated
by the changes which it wrought. With all
the privileges of the citizen guaranteed to
them, with an equal chance offered them in
the struggle for labor and prosperity, and
with the multitude of advantages in this
country for every man who will lift his hand
to work, there is no reason why another ex-
petition of colored men should turn their
backs on the land wherein they have been
domesticated to seek homes in Africa.
We sec the statement made that the Col
onizatlon Society have gathered together in
Florida, South Carolina, and Georgia ia

The Reissue Of Greenbacks.

firms the report that the Secretary of the
Treasury had used, in purchase of the usual
amount of bonds taken recently, between
"a, OOO, 900 and s5 900, 900 of the s4 ,OOO, 900
of greenbacks retired by Secretary McCul-
loch under the act of April IL, 1866. The
fact has occasioned considerable comment.
Some of our contemporaries have declared
distinctly that such action was without au-
thority Of law, and this declaration has been
made in q denunciatory spirit which we are
