A WARNING TO THE LEGIsLATURE.-The
bending of straw will indicate the direction
of the wind. At the Syracuse Charter
election this week the democracy carried the
city. Last November the republican majority
on Secretary Of State was over twenty-five
hundred. Since then ex-Speaker Alvord has
been made the Ring candidate of the
Assembly, and the late Senate Clerk, James
Terwilliger, has been soiled by contact with
the State printing jobbery Of Weed, Parsons
d Co. The sudden change in the political
standing of the City Of Salt is but another
indication Of the resolve Of the people to strike
down corruption in whichever party It may
show itself. Will the members Of the State
Legislature reflect upon this warning when
tempted by the approaches Of the Erie Rail-
road lobby and other Albany operators
A LITTLE SCRAP OF HIsToRY.-If Vice
President Colfax should be renominated and
reelected 1t will be the first time, with
single exception, that Vice President has
been his own successor in the history of our
government. The exception was that of
Daniel D. Tompklns, of New York, who
served as Vice President under the two terms
Of President Monroe, one of which terms
occurred in what is historically known as the
EZRA Of good feeling"-from 1921 to 1926.
The instances in which o Vice President has
stepped from that position to the Presidency
are six, to wit John Adams, Thomas Jeffer-
son, Martin Van Buren,, John Tyler, Willard
Fillmore and Andrew Johnson-the three
latter succeeding to the Presidency on account
of the demise of the regularly elected incum-
bents while holding Office.

Tho New Spanish Ministry and Dinculties
Of Amadeus.
The young King of Spain has, to use the
appropriate language of the telegram from
Madrid, published in another part of this
paper, completed the task" of forming a new
Ministry. Cabinet Offices generally are easily
enough filed but Amadeus has not found 1t
to be so under his government. The anarchi-
cal condition of Spain, in political sense, the
frequent changes in the government, the I'M
certainty of the future and the hostility of
rival and powerful factions, render the posi-
ton of Minister undesirable to many of the
first men of Spain. Hence it was, no doubt, a
task to reconstruct harmonious Cabinet, and
one that would have the confidence Of the
country. Having formed one, however, it re-
mains to be seen if it will live longer than its
predecessor. Cabinet making seems to have
been the chief employment of Amadeus during
the short period he has occupied the Spanish
throne. Royalty has become farce In
Spain. The young King probably thinks so
too, for there is report that he has become
so disguised with the ungovernable disposition
of the Spanish people as to contemplate abdi-
cation. 1t is said that he has urged his father,
Victor Emmanuel, to sanction the step, though
the Italian monarch advises him to be patient
and to hold on for the present. Spain, evil
IDENTITY, is still in the agony of deep-seated
revolution, and will have to 90 through many
trials, probably, before reaching the end of
good and stable government. Like France,
perhaps, she may neither be prepared for q
republic nor satisfied with any other form Of
government

THE MoNARoHIoAL RESTORATION IDEA
appears to prevail still more universally in the
French Legislative Assembly daily.

sure that democratic and anti-Grant
republican journals will join in shouting
hozannas in honor of the great popular revo-
luton calling for the dropping of Grant by
the republican party. But the trick will fail.
The Philadelphia Convention will not be
frightened from Grant by such guerilla tactics
as these. Nor will the Cincinnati Convention
be materially strengthened by reinforcements
of boiling republicans, with the retention of
New Hampshire and the recovery Of Con-
necticut by the democrats, because these sore
heads, in many cases, win wait yet little
longer to profit by the chances Of falling in
with the winning side.
To sum up the prospects of this projected
Holy Alliance, we fear it will fail, because the
efforts heretofore, from time to time, made to
fuse homogeneous opposition elements always
have failed, and notably the efforts to fuse
them against Jackson in 1882, and against Van
Buren, in 1886, and against Buchanan in 1855,
and against Lincoln in 1860. The party of
General Grant is like regular army, well dis
ciplined, compact and strong, and with
leader who has the confidence Of his
officers and men; the opposition ele-
ments, including the democratic party,
are like disorderly army Of militia
detachments, under different leaders, with diff
ferent purposes, here and there, and distrust-
full Of each other. And so with tho renomi-
nation Of General Grant we suspect that the
actual republican reinforcements to the demo-
cratic camp will be found as proftless as the
recruits from Andy Johnson.

cipline and command, and, IN emergencies,
will show his immense superiority over ON
empiric. II is by no means necessary to rear
q corps Of savans for the management of our
ships, nor to multiply naval academies, in
order to raise up fine navlgators and skilful
commanders. This can be amply done by
honoring and rewarding a scientific spirit Of
practical research on board ship in the way
the HERALD suggested.
It was said of the navy Of Charles the
Second of England that it contained gentle
men and seamen; but the gentlemen were not
seamen and the seamen were not gentlemen.
It may be said Of some other navies that they
contain good sailors and good scientists, but
few men who unite both science and seaman
ship. The science, If we include In that term
those qualifications for the able strategy and
conduct of fleets which distinguished Nelson
and others, is, paradoxical as 1t may seem,
more essential to q naval captain than sea-
manship ITSELF Among the civilized nations
of antiquity men who knew nothing OF ship,
as Cimon, Lysander and Pompey, fought
great naval battles with brilliant success
Raleigh and Blake were soldiers by profess
sion, and not seamen, when they first and
suddenly rose to the highest eminence as
naval commanders by humbling the pride OF
Holland and Spain on the ocean.
The HERALD has recently spoken OF the
great necessity of increasing the numbers and
material of the navy. This can be OF no SER
vice to the nation unless, pori passu, with
numerical increase there is also an improve
ueut In the training and skill Of its officers.

republican partyP The last resort of impeach-
ment had been talked over and abandoned as
utterly impracticable. I'VE have it," cry
Messrs. Sumner and Schurz, Gin these sales
of arms to the French during the Franco
German war" And, with q preamble as
solemn and portentous as dozen
articles of impeachment Mr.. Sum-
ner brings in his resolution for an
investigation. The debate progresses, and
Mr.. Schurz. as republican, is given an op-
portunity for another campaign speech against
| General Grant for democratic circulation,
which is all he expected. II some of the
administration Senators had not been equally
vain Of their powers TO captivate the galleries
they would have disappointed Mr.. Sohurz In
this expectation. In the end, we suspect Mr..
Schurz will fail in this movement to intro
duce anything like three hundred thousand
German republicans to the new Grand Sachem
of Tammany Hall as colaborers in the great
| cause of reform.
These four or five anti-Graut republican
Senators, with their half-dozen anti. Grant re-
publican journals, have, in short, exhausted
their available stock Of ammunition in the Sen
ate in this matter of the sales Of arms to the
French. We expect now that they will turn
their attention to the approaching New Hamp-
shire and Connecticut elections, and as, with
the full party vote on each side, both those
States are very closely contested, few bolt.

[From the N. Y. Timesl
Horace Greeley, say the "Reformers, "is every
thing that we don't want and represents every
thing that we abhor, but. for certain personal
ends OF our own we desire TO make him Presi-
dent. A position like this involves deliberate
insult to the popular understanding, which the
people are very likely TO resent. pretty set Of
men are these to give us a reign OF political pn-
rity whose very first act is to indorse one OF the
most corrupt aud shameless political bargains
that the record of any party can show ltanords
a truly encouraging prospect for civil service re-
form and administrative purity generally, to find
some of their nOisiest advocates engaged in the
attempt to prove that though honest convictions
may be very desirable things up to certain
point, there is a point where they must give way
to the superior considerations OF self-interest.

II these pieces Of intelligence mean anything'
they mean this-that fresh and serious crisis
has arrived in the history OF the Papacy. The
Italian Government. gradually and slowly giving
way to the prevailing popular sentiment OF the
Italian people. has found it necessary to endorse
popular legislation. Some time eince the Ma
tional Legislature passed certain bills which had
for their object the suppression Of certain
class OF so-called Religious institutions These
laws are now to be enforced. and certain con-
ventual institutions Of old standing are to be
suppressed The Pope protests, and an appeal
has been made to foreign governments, calling
upon them to say whether or no the action OF
the government of Italy is not an open violation
OF international law. Hal this been all it might
not have been difficult for the various foreign
governments to give some satisfactory answer
but the appeal, strange to say, renders reply
almost next to impossible for it declares that
the conflict between the Holy See and the Italian
government is inevitable and that reconciliation

The New York Times says:
There is something more than a daily ferry
now between Europe and America In fact the
rate is something like steamer for every twelve
hours from the port OF Liverpool alone. During
the month Of May, htty-three eam-ships left
the Mersey, of which thuty-four came to New
York eight to Boston eight to Quebec and
MOutrea, and three to Hallay, Norfolk al d
Baltimore. Seventeen Of these belong to the
Cunard Company, eleven 10 10 Inmau, five o
tho National, five to the Whit, Star, ten to Il o
Allan, and six to the Guion Company, respec =
ivey. When to these are added the ships OF
the French and the German lines, we get some
idea Of the prodgious increase of late in steam
communication between the continents. More
than 1000 persons were brought to America
from Liverpool alone during May-an increase
cl nearly i've thousand over the number for
May, 1871, and total increase since January.
over the corresponding period last year Of
eighteen thousand. These figures are full Of
