Lord Derby is the first statesman Of the fret
rank who has spoken upon the labour question.
He was extremely cautious in his remarks. but
be told the Agricultural Association of Bury
that, although he doubted whether the existipH
competition for labour could continue long, still
every man, the labourer included, had a right
within weil-knoWn limits to struggle for his own
success, even at the cost of Inconvenience or
failure to others. The best palliative would be
to use less labour, to economist it, in fact, as
they economised every thing else when it got
dear. On his side, the labourer of course must
surrender all privileges granted as %favours, and
could not expect to be so independent in winter
as in summer These quietly sensible remarks
were received by the farmers present amidst
such a dead silence, that the Times thinks it
necessary to say that the speech was inaudiblo
to many Of the company. Nonsense. Some of
the audience heard it, and if they had cheered,
so would the remainder. The truth is, the farm
es do not believe that the labourers have any
right to strike at all, any more than children
would have, or kindly treated horses.
When Mr.. Greeley accepted the nomination
ct the Cincinnati Convention he retired from
the cditorship Of the Tribune, but we fear he
suII controls 1t. If he does, his election would
be q very bad omen for the Negroes, for the
Tribune is clearly inclined to favour what is
called The 'poIicy desperation" That is to say,
they are to have al the privileges Of whites in
the schools, the hotels, the railway cars, and
everywhere else, but are to enjoy them ali sep
eratoIy; that is, in facs, they are to be treated
as outcast8 on account of their colour. That
idea once accepted, laws made for them must
be separate, and as they would not have a sepa-
rate Legislative House of their own, would bo
almost certainly oppressive. The negro schools
would be bad, the negro quarters and cars dirty,
and the whole race thrust back again into that
pariab position in which self-respect disappears,
The pride of colour is strong enough in India,
Heaven knows but no law or custom hea rver
yet separated ,ho children at college.

No other people would be satisfied with
such an arrangement, but the Crucians
and it might be added, that it is doubtful
whether any other Legislative body but our
Colonial Council, would ever countenance
the continuation of such things. To main

to continue in this department Of the

M. Theirs announces through Reuter- that he
has no intention whatever Of proposing the for
nation of q Second Chamber. lie thinks such
an institution might be valuable, but believes
that the Assembly will be fully occupied with
Bills on the reorganization of the Army, on pri.
mary instruction, and on finance. We question
whether the story ever had any foundation be-
You'd the desire Of the prcjudjced English cor
respondents to discredit the Republic. The
Assembly is only too Conservative already. and
whenever NJ. Thiors has desired to check its ar
dour, he has been able to do so without appeal
ing to a body which would either be himself
over again, or q nullity, or o nuisance perpetu-
ally provoking the people to revolt. If our
House Of Lords wore Frcnch-that is, incapa.
Bile of perceiying the difference between LEGAL
and actual power it would not last six months.
Single Chambers, say the correspondents, are
never permanent Certainly not, for the plain
reason that nothing IS permanent; but the long
est-liycd Governing body the world has seen
yet, the Roman Senate, was q single Chamber.
A curious rumour is spreading that Prince
bismarck does not at all approve the meeting of
the Three Emperors. Now he is coming to
Berlin to be present at the Congress, and again,
he Is not coming, and then he is coming if he
can, and 50 on. 1t is safe to predict, neverthe-
less, that If the interview comes off, the German
Chancellor will be upon the spot. Disagreea-
bic points, such as the claims Of Denmark, and
the evacuation of France, and the position of
HoSpodar Karl, and others, may be raised but
they will not be suppressed by his absence, or
be settled on account Of that absence more pre-
clsely to his mind. Besides, though Prince
Bismarck Is a very great parsonage, observers
must not forget that he is still, as he declared
himself at the beginning, the "vassal of the Ho-
henzollerns, " most unlikely publicly to discre-
dit o t%avourite idea of his masters. Another
rumour that the Cesarevitch entirely disop-
proves the assemblage is much moro probable,
but heirs apparent almost always disapprove the
policy of reigning So~vereigns, and only adopt it
heartily when themselves upon the throne.
The Arbltrators ut Geneva keep their secret

the American Government Is straining every

the decisions at Geneva are on the whole salts
factory, that the amount of money awarded is
less than it had hoped, but that it is entirely
content with its representatives. The award, it
is said, is to be in the form of q gross sum,
which is v~ariously estimated a. at from $4,000, 900
to91,300,000. 1t is probable, from the calcula
tons made, that it will not exceed fifteen mil
