TIE SHOOTING OF ALDERMAN McMuLLrN. -

TIE SHOOTING OF ALDERMAN McMULLN -
The latest reports give reason to hope that the
wounds inflicted on the Philadelphia Alder
man will not prove fatal Although McMullin
is the leader of one of the toughest crowds in
the Quaker City, he has always been regarded
as good-natured man, with many endearing
qualities Much satisfaction is felt, even by
his political opponents at his escape from
death by the assassin's bullet We hope that
the recovery of McMullin will in no degree
slacken the pursuit of his would-be assassin
The interests OF the community demand that
men like Maria shall be dealt with in a vigor-
GUS and uncompromising manner. 1t reflects
little credit on the police of Philadelphia that
a man SO well known as Maria should be able
to escape from justice, and we hope that
renewed efforts will be made to bring the
would-be assassin to justice.

while our Mexican and Indian frontiers are at
the mercy of lawless bandits and inhuman
savages, and require the protection of that
military which is employed in the Southern
States to menace our own white citizens.
The republican party should bear it in mind
that the war of the rebellion is over. No armed
rebels mock the majesty of federal authority
in North Carolina; no hostile artillery thun-
ders against our forts in Charleston harbor;
no gray-coated sharpshooter draws bead on
the blue uniform by the waters of the Missis-
sippi. General Grants victories changed all
that. We are now all loyal citizens. Those
only who would cherish the resentments of the
war are public enemies. Let the President
assume the command Of the government as
of old he commanded the army. Let him,
by the exercise of executive power, remove
the troops which hold white citizens of
Southern States under the control of their
late slaves, withdraw his confidence from
the carpet-bag thieves, who threaten voters
with arrest and imprisonment if they dare
speak their sentiments, and give us q
free and fair election in every State in
the Union. He was chosen by the loyal
people, Let him be President of the people
and put the politicians to flight. He should
not sluf his name with the imputation
of an election which shall copy the pltbiscite
of Louis Napoleon. He can afford even to be
defeated in this contest He cannot afford to
succeed by even an appearance of intimidation.
Let him emancipate himself from the dema-
gogues, free the white men from the threat of
being enslaved by the ignorant blacks and he
will stand at the head of strong combination
of supporters whose confidence he has fairly
won. Then to be beaten would be no dis
grace. To be elected by military force and
political power would reflect no glory upon
the victor of Appomattox To assist the col
ored men of the South in expressing their old
masters would add no lustre to the conquest of
the Confederacy

Tor reconoiliation, because the American PEI
pie are essentially warm and generous pen
pie. The Puritanism of New England must mo-
DC allowed to poison the national heart with
its hard and unforgiving sentiments if we are
10 continue great and united people. The
advice rendered to the colored voters of the
South by Senator Schurz deserves their earnest
attention. 1t is folly of the worst sort for
race to attach themselves as a race to the for
tunes OF one party. So long as the party is in
the ascendant all goes well but inevitably a
change comes, and then the accumulated hate
of the triumphant party is visited on the men
who voted solid. If the negroes wish their
new-found liberties to be placed beyond the
reach of attack they must divide their votes
according to conviction, and SO receive tina
support of both the great parties in the State.
This is their best security against reactionary
sentiments.
No doubt the eloquence of Senator Schurx
will have the effect of impressing this fact ON
the minds of large portion of the negro
voters of South Carolina But however the
election may result, such principles as he
breaches cannot fail to have healthy influence
on public opinion both at the South and North.
We are sick of strife and long for real hearty
Cancellation with our brothers of the South.
When that has been accomplished we shall be
in fact united people, with grand and
assured future.

The Alabama Correspondence and the
Geneva Arbitration TRIBUNAL.


In the HERALD of yesterday we printed
two important dispatches relative to the Ala
bama affair and the work of the Geneva Tri-
bunal. The dispatches had passed between
the two governments prior to the meeting of
the Court of Arbitration. The first despatch,
marked No. SO, is from Earl Granville to Sir
E. Thornton, and is dated May IS, 1872. This
despatch, it appears, was published in sup
plement to the London Gazette, May II. The
other despatch, marked No. 81, is from Secre-
tory Fish to General Schenck, and is dated
June 3, 1872.
1t is impossible, on reading these dispatches,
not to feel how weak is Secretary Fish in the
hands of Earl Granville. We always feel that
is apparent all through this correspondence
that with so astute diplomat as Lord Gran
vile as an opponent it is not possible for
him to win. Mr.. Fish is not great
statesman; far less is he great diplomatist.
In dealing with this question of the Alabama
claims, Mr.. Fish has oil through seemed to us
like schoolboy commencing some new
course Of study Everything was strange to
him. At no moment did he feel at ease. At
no stage Of the negotiations was he perfectly
at home. How different with the British
statesman. Never disconnected, always at his
ease, he seemed at all times to be dealing with
familiar subject The Washington Treaty,
unless we greatly mistake, will mark in history
not triumph of justice, but triumph of
British diplomacy.
II now begins to appear, as the Geneva
Tribunal proceeds with its work, that the
damages which will be awarded will fall far
short of the once high expectations of our
people. On the part of our merchants and
shipowners and others on whom the losses
directly fell there is certain to be great dis
appointment when the damages are awarded
The entire American public will feel panied
by the failure of our case /; and, unless we
greatly mistake, the administration will be
severely blamed It is not at oil impossible
that when the Geneva Court of Arbitration has
finished its work bad feeling between the two
nations will be revived, and in that case tho
Washington Treaty will be curse rather than
q blessino,

on the Connecticut River, few miles above
the course already mentioned, the picked crew
of the Atalanta Boat Club of this city defeated
with ease crippled, almost demoralized crew
from Harvard College. The water was reported
to be smooth, the wind light and the weather
cool The winners occupied eighteen minutes
and nineteen seconds covering the course. For
reasons best known to themselves they saw tit
this season to cross over to England and row a
race with crew there that changed the name
of American amateur rowing, which Harvard
had forced Englishmen to respect, to laugh
ing stock and byword. To-day crew OF
college boys, nearly, if not entirely, before un-
heard of, have required but sixteen minutes
and thirty-two and half seconds to do an
equal distance-nearly two minutes less than
those who thus represented us abroad seemed
to need Might it not at least be well enough
for Englishmen to bear this fact in mind
May be by next year the London, Cambridge
or Oxford men may come among us. Wehope
they will deign to. If they will, we will do
what We can to make it pleasant for them
Their own press says we Americans do not
know how to row. So while whoever is to
meet them here is hard at work, they will have
plenty of time to look about We will, if they
like sailing, see to it that they have turn in
the bay; and if signing for home comes over
them, and they need something to remind
them of it, we might take them over and show
them ''the Queens Cup"

NATIONAL REFORM AND PRooREss IN JAPAN
The Mikado of Japan has set out from Jeddo
on a visit to Kioto. He is attended by eight
vessels-of-war, and will extend his tour to the
southern portions of the empire. He will be
absent from the seat of supreme government
forty days. Japanese history makes no men
ton OF Mikado having ever before embarked
on such a journey, and great good will, it is
thought result from the undertaking. We
are rejoiced to chronicle the event at such a
happy moment in the current of the world $
civilization; when Africa is being laid open to
Christianized humanity by Anglo-American
tenacity, pluck and enterprise, and will, we
doubt not, soon send forth her children to
meet the Asiatics half way, and, mayhap, to
inquire even of the Europeans as of old,

A Now Polar Fleet.

Modern geographical research has, within
the last year, received such an impulse that it
seems determined to grapple successfully with
the problem of the North Pole Not content
with sending a single expedition at time, it
is about to send out nearly dozen explorers
at once and to throw Gordon of exploration
around the mysterious pivot of the globe The
accounts which reach us show that all of these
expeditions will go fully equipped and supplied
for more than one year, and on attaining high
attitudes, this summer and fall will remain
there to winter, and use such advantages al
they thus gain for making early and rapid ad-
vaHces next year.
The two most important expeditions are the
Swedish, under Professor Nordenskiold, soon
to sail, and the Austrian expedition under
Payer and Weyprecht, already in the Arctic
Ocean, battling with the difficulties of their
enterprise. This last movement is test of the
"thermometric gateway theory along the
course of the Gulf Stream, and will be Sec
onded by similar one conducted under the
direction of the great Norwegian sailor, Cap
tain Mack. 10
Some OF these voyagers will advance north.
ward from Spitzbergen, some between Spitz-
bergen and Nova Zembla, some north from
Siberia, and Mr.. Pavy, the gallant American
explorer, who left San FRANCISCO in the spring,
will attempt course northwest of Behring
Strait These different and independent en-
terprises will, therefore, be continually con-
verging towards the Pole. Whether successful
in reaching the objective point of their re-
searches or not. they must contribute immensely
to our knowledge of the circumpolar geogra-
ply and meteorology, as also of the current
system which prevails in the icy ocean The
present is an age of great geographical discov-
cries, and it would not be surprising if some
one of these daring spirits should astound the
world by his success, and usher in the long
promised era of knowledge
When we upon the globes last verge shall go
And view the ocean leaning on the sky.
