the Injunction was granted. 1t was also ru-
mored that others of the Ring had something
tn do with preparing the opinion. Let that pass
That they were parties TO the transaction mas

mingled in the mind of Judge Barnard might
be a curious study. JIo had been accustomed

would have TO go down, but he would not go

of turning the public wrath upon a single VIC

only to escape, but as they hoped, to recon-
struct their crumbling despOtism over the
people of this city.
The gentleman on whose authority we stated,
Yesterday, that Judge Barnard had boosted

WILSON ON CONVERSION.

Mr. Senator Wilson, we regret to say, con-
tinues to cant in Indiana as he canted in
North Carolina. If such be his taste, far be
it from lis to object to the religious phrase
ology with which he garnishes his speeches
He may broaden his phylacteries as much as
lie pleases; he may speak with the tongues OF
men and Of angels, and have the gift of
prophecy and understand all mysteries and all
knowledge, yet if he have not charity his
brass sounds and his cymbal tinkles in vain.
He claims the Christian quality of forgiveness,
but it must be upon conditions. He also
claims the Divine quality of determining what
is and what is not "real evidence OF
repentance Paul may have been con-
veried in the twinkling of an eye, but
Mr. Wilson is mt ready to believe that the
Democrats can have been truly "conyerted to
the Cincinnati platform in single day.
Well, nobody pretends that they have been
thus instantaneously changed. Mr.. Wilson
mixes incongruous matters, and then sancti-
moniously turns up his nose at n mess of his
own making. When Democrats were docking
like sheep into tho Republican party, or were
Offering, upon certain terms, to vote Mr. Will
son into this Office or that. he was hardly in
the habit of putting every man whose vote he
solicited through the whole catecbism. There

In noticing Speaker Blaine's letter on Senator
Sumner, The indianapolis Nelos justly remarks {;
His chief argument is that Toombs defended
Brool1s's attack upon Mfr. Sumner, and now Mr.,
Sumner unites with him. This is no argument to
begin with if it were the Christian religion could
not exist for moment" The NeVs does not seem
to be aware that tho pseudo-Republican party has
pretty much concluded TO abandon the Christian
religion altogether at least that part of it which
commands us to forgive our enemies and to return
good for evil. Even Gen. Wilson has suspended
that part of the Sermon the Mount until after the

what does Temperance candidate want with all

Gov. Scott of South Carolina rises to ex-
plain. The State debt, nc says, is really only
S1G,OOO,OOO. Of course, nobody can tell by
what hOcus-pOcus in figures this modest result
is reached; but even this is about $5,OOO,OOO
more than the Governor has heretofore
been willing to acknowledge as " the
"real debt" Now, according to Gov. Scott
81 100000 must be Immediately collected from
the taxpayers to meet the interest on the
State bonds; it would have been paid before,
he adds apologetically, but the Legislative
expenses were so great that nothing was left
when that body got through. And this is the
State which the Governor claims is the most
economically managed of any in the Nation.

GOV. Palmer of Illinois made q speech at
Jacksonville, yesterday, in which he told some
truths which may not be specially palatable to
the ADMINISTRATORS. Gov. Palmer happens
to know something of the political record of
Gen. Logan, one of the Grant orators who
have a great deal to say about pure Republic
canism. And he shows that the Rcpublicanism
Of Logan is no better than that of Grant; and
that those who are so free with their denim
tons of party faith are by no means final
authority in the premises.

Tie Ereang Post seriously argues that if President
Grant is not reelected, it viii thereby be proved
that Republics are ungTateful It's premises are that
Grant brought the war TO a successful ISSUE and the
people said Grant has been good General. Let s
make him President" that, this impulse Of graft
tude he was made Presidents that it is just as true
now as four years ago that he saved the country"
that no wants to be President again; and, finally,
that if we do not crafty his desire in this particular
we shall be ungTateful This ratiocnaton Is plausl-
BILE it takes with the unhinding; but it is fatally de-
fective in its last specification Allowing for the sake
of argument that the original claim of the President
to military greatness is all that it is represented to
be. does that give him lease of the Presidency
which shall last during his good pleasuref If a
plucky fellow saves your daughter from mad bull,
do you cay, "Taze her and do what you please with
herp Then, if we give Grant another four years in
the White House because he wants it now, what
security will he give that he will not ask it again i'll

would MT it be just ungrateful to refuse then as

thing Once admit the vitality of the claim and it

The petty meanness displayed by some au-
thorities of the Bloomingdale Asylum in with
holding from THE TRIBUNE their defense
against the affidayits of late inmates is calcu-
lated to prejudice the defense itself in the eyes
of fair-niuded public. We earnestly hope,
however that it may be judged solely on its
own merits, and commend it to the attention
Of our readers, as printed this morning on our

1t appears that while the Great Republic Is

Europe is bordering the grave questions
growing out of the adjustment of the balance
of power, Japan is profoundly agitated by

British Charge dAflaires ? The details OF the
disturbance which tins query has precipitated
upon Japan are described by TRIBUNE cor
respondent whose letter is printed on another

that this difficulty with the British Legation
has resulted in benefit only to that OF the
United States.

Baker Some of these we have managed to secure
fresh from the shOpothers sent to us by Indig-

thrust with request that the little game may be

thoroughly exposed; and as Mr.. Douglas gets gene

that the Washington scribes send to their customers

Signs and Wonders continue 10 multiply. The
heavens are in very perturbed, incongruou3, ana
unsatisfactory state, and matters are not going at
all right with the orbits and other arrangements
What with new planets and unexpected comets
with trines, and conjuDctions, and apogees we
should not be in tho least startled, even although
something startling should happen. Celestial mat
ters, we must admit, seem to be taking rather
gloomy turn, and children who are born about this
time are much TO be commiseTated. Here Is Prof.
plantamour who predicted time ago that
some time this week the earth would be
oternalIy smashed by a comet-a fu-
rious flaming, ferOcious, and hzZling comet,
with a TAIL as long as ono Of Henry Wilson's
speeches and great deal brighter. We ought by
tbis time TO be smolderng ruin and worse off than
# tbe fonr quarters Of the globe streaming with
the molten lava of a hundred great simultaneous
Volcanic ernptions But according TO Astronomical
AstroIooer in Hamilton College, we are reserved for
q worse fate. We have already printed his prebc-
fion. but it is important enough to DO reprinted.
While Mr.. Grant was Gin neghboring city," and

eyes wide open and gazing mtenty upon
the spangled heavens. Presently the wake
fuI watcher was rewarded. He saw two
planets which were interesting strangers, and NOT
down in the books. Two planets, and Gen.
Grant in a neighboring city! What could they por-
tendl The learned man rubbed his head, consulted
his books and finally made up his mind that the re-
election Of Dr. Grant was signfed by the celestial
pair. Ii was all plain enough; two planets and two
terms! Could anything be more certainf We must
say that we have never known the stars to be more
perverse 1t is hard if we to be forced to choose
between destructive comet and a non-reconstruc-
tive President. We should be willing to compro-
mise on tornado or q couple Of months Of some
what mitgated cholera. But the Comet Astrologer
has made failure Of it; and the two-term astrolO-
ger may look for like luck.

RESPONDENT of THE TRIBUNE, herewith
printed, will be found curious account OF a
meat panic. 1t seems to have arisen from
women's rebellion against the butchers, on
account of high prices. Cooperation was pro-
posed. but the proposition did not meet with
favor and, at last accounts, butchers meat
was as dear in the North of England as rare
Jewels. A Briton without his beef would be

The story of piracies and thefts along the
shores OF Long Island Sound, which we pub
lish today, reads like a Leaf from the annals
Of Mississippi River neighborhood in the
olden time. DurglarieS and wholesale "shop-
"Hftings7 have grown so common in some of
these shore villages that garrison seems needed
TO protect movable property. 1t is to be
hoped that the suspicious now directed
toward the crew Of United States vessel
will prove unfounded.
