THE religious papers of New York have
all been leashed into tfeefinancial traces of
the Wall-street brokers, and put on the
scent of ''repudiation" in Virginia, and
they yelp beautifully in chorus, as must be
confessed. Their ignorance, however, of
what the real state Of the case is, and of
the objections of our people to the Funding
bill, is on par with that of Mrs. Mala-
prop, in Sheridan's comedy of "The
Rivals" where she uses the smile, ''as
headstrong as an allegory on the banks of
the Nile.n
There is this difference, however, be-
tween the two: Mrs. Malaprop Numbered
only in scorQs, and her blunders were all
the more innocent, if not amusing, from
their being entirely NAL d propos, and away
from the mark while these religious, jour-
nails blunder so egregiously in facts that
they are more luckless in their statement
Of them than their prototype in "The
Rivals" was in her application of the term
+" orthodoxy" to herself.

A CURIOUS question is being discussed
in the Wisconsin Legislature, and one which
eclipses even tho funding BILL" now be-
fore our own august body of legislators.
1t is this: Whether their State constitu-
ton is unconstitutional in one of its more
important provisions? This involves
another equally perplexing inquiry, and
that is, whether provision Of a constitu-
ton can be part of the instrument, and
no part of it, at the same time? or whether
that which is a part of it, is, in fact, no
part, and pice persa? Or. worse still,
whether the part that is unconstitutional be
the one that is in or out Of the instru-
ment? Or-to push the inquiry still fur
ther-whether they have an unconstitution-
al constitution, OF constitutional uncon-
stitutionality, in the State9 Which is it ?

PHILADELPHIA is getting shocked at
her aldermanic scallawags in the city
council, and is ctamoring for a public
meeting, to be held under the auspices of
her citizens, for thorough overhaaling of
her municipal affairs in the interest of re-
form, such as the scandalous action of the
majority of the common council in sundry
matters, has made the imperative duty of
the sovereign people. A meeting has been
called to give expression to "the deep feel
ing now pervading the community on the
subject of abuses in the city government,
the scandalous conduct of the majority in
common council, the defiant exaction of ex-
tortionate fees by officials, the oppressive
legislation at Harrisburg, the unjust election
laws operating upon the city of Philadel-
phia, which enables the rings to elect
whom they please, and the frauds generally
perpetrated upon the voters and upon the
city," If the Philadelphians discover as
big mine Of official corruption as they
did in Chicago, among the aldermanic seal
lawags there, they will do well to make
short speeches, and institute sharp action,
in their dealing with public delinquents.

who ran against Lathrop in that district

he had, it would have been too doleful for

Commissioners of the right of indemnitica-
ton for these indirect losses. No settle
ment was, of course, made by the Commits
sioners, but the matters in dispute were
left to arbitration--to civil litigation before
the Geneva tribunal--our government re-
serving the right to indemnity for indirect
or consequential losses, the same as for
those that were direct or ineonsequential.
Why the British government should
flare up at this late day in utter astonish-
ment at our claims, as presented, can only
be accounted for on the supposition that
she desires to create q European
judgement in advance of that which
shall be given by the Geneva
court--to hedge that court in, not by legal
precedents or arguments against indemnif-
cation, but by such diplomatic clamor as
shall be everywhere seen and felt as
the tribunal advances to the consum-
nation Of its labor. What our government
may claim before this tribunal is one thing
what the tribunal may alloio is quite
another. Neither government is bound,
except by the determination the tribuna
shall reach. The effort, therefore, to fore
stall the case in any of the predicaments or
which it now stands, either by turning
aside the claims or warping any of the deter
limitations thus far reached, will be as futile
on the part of Great Britain as her NOR
persistent effort, heretofore, to rid hersel
of any and all responsibility for the un
paralleled injuries done to our commerc
: by her own permissive act.

THE ARLINGTON ESTATE.

The question of reimbursing Mrs. Robert
E. Lee for the Arlington estate is again be-
ing agitated in Washington, and it is said
that the Judiciary Committee will shortly
consider the same, and in all probability
recommend an appropriation to liquidate it.
We think that from the peculiar circum-
stances connected with this claim, it will,
sooner or later, be recognized as just and
equitable by the Federal government and,
this being the case, the sooner it is recog-
nized and paid the better. All that the
Federal government could have done in the
way of confiscating the property, was to
have made its confiscation operative during
the lifetime of General Lee; and the tax
-sale authorized by the government should
not have been made cover for unconstitu-
tional confscation. That was not the orig
inal object, and the government has an
opportunity in this case to show that it
was not. 1t is known that Senator Lewis
is in favor of the measure, and characterizes
it as an act of justice on the part Of the
Federal government. We think that a
large majority of the Republican journals
throughout the North would strongly urge
the measure if they deemed it necessary
to do SO in order to influence their Repre-
sentatives and Senator'S in that direction.
The Cincinnati Gazette, the leading Re-
publican journal of Ohio, strongly advo.
Gates it, and says that "persons may
make savage declarations against rebels
to stave off reflection in this affair, bat ar
honorable nation cannot maintain the posi-
ton which ours holds as to this estate
is said that many leading Republican
Senators favor the appropriation as no
only equitable, but due to the 'nationa
dignity and honor.
