y. The popular voice has also decided that
equal civil rights shall be given to the colored
man. and that all distractions to his political
or civil rights shall be removed by adequate
Legislation. II is vain hope on the part of a
portion OF the Southern leaders that the nation
VIII ever retrace it's steps in respect to this sub
ject. Equal civil and political rights for all
men is the very basis of American civilization,
and OF the political fabric OF the Government,
and they who endeavor to nulify their applca-
tion are only bringing trouble upon those COM
muuities which have been deceived into this
disastrous opposition.
VI. The American nation, conscious OF lts
strength and power, and actuated by high and
philanthropic motives, is willing to receive the
peoples Of adjacent territories INTO our politi-
cal family if they ask for admission. But our
people are adverse to achieving by conquest
that which will necessarily and naturally fall
to them in time, and they expect the Govern
ment to pursue such policy as will render
annexation possible and smooth the way to
furthur expansion OF territory.
The above is brief synopsis Of the leading
measures that were discussed before the peo-
pie, and winch the average public opinion has
approved. But IN addition to these and be-
yond them all, is the general instruction that
our Government shall, by all practicable and
honorable means, enlarge the influence and
power OF the United States among the nations
Of the world. The revival Of our ship-build
ing interests and OF our foreign commerce, go
that our flag may again float in every harbor
OF the known world, is one of the necessities
of the hour. Domestic tranquility, the en-
forcement OF the laws, dong justice to all na-
tions, but also demanding justice from them,
80 that the example Of this Republic may per-
meate the political structures Of other coun-
tries and thus lead them into the pathes OF
| self-government ls the higher law underlying
all others by which our statesmen are
bound. Nor need they be apprehensive that
their conduct aud achievements, II inspired by
these patriotic and conscientious motives. will
not receive full credit both contemporaneous
and future history. And when new questions
arise, as they necessarily will, they must all
I be decided by the test of the great primary
principle that the wel-beiDg OF the individual
citizen is the highest aim of good govern
ment. Thus interpreted. the lessons Of the
last campaign will be an unerIing guide to the
statesman and to the press.

Ii appears that the railways are RECEIVING
now nearly seven millions OF dollars annually
for carrying the mails, and that moderate
increase was contemplated in the new postal
laws, but they have determined to stop carry
ing the mails in such manner as viii best
accommodate the public, after the first OF
April, unless the Government should pay
them no less than thirty millions of dollars
per annum; and even If this extortionate de-
mand should be complied with, it would pro-
badly be only the basis to further imposlions.
This is a good time for strikes-then let
them strike by all means. Tne shareholders
might have remained in possession of their
slaves for an entire generation longer if they
had not forced On the war. Aud thus, al
though the agitation against railway tyranny
is most earnest throughout the country, ard
the farmers, who constitute the most Intelh-
gent and resolute portion of our population,
are combining as one man to correct these
abuses, the railways, by a judicious and con-
Gatory course and lavish use Of money,
might have deiled the popular Will for many
years. But this contemplated forcing OF an
issue with the Government at this time OF ex-
element and discomfort, which have manifest
ed themselves by mass-meetngs, not engineer
ed by leaders, bat emanating from the people
themselves, is perfect Madness lea1ing to
speedy destruction.
The Congress of the United States has the
right OF eminent domain. 1t can condemn
all the railways for public uses-to carry the
mails Of the United States-and appoint arb-
traitors to adjust the amounts due to the
stockholders. 1t has cost the nation five thou
sand millions OF dollars to strike the fetters
from three millions Of slaves; it may take that
much more to emancipate forty millions Of
freemen from the extortions Of monopoliee;
but whenever the nation has made up it's mind
that it must be done, their hour has come.
There can be no objection to a reasonable
increase from time to time for mail seevice,
but we are of the opinion that the Govern
ment pays more for the use Of half q car than
is paid either by freight, express, or passon-
gers fer the same space the year round.

1t appears now to be an established princi-
pie In our courts, and 1t ought to be better un-
derstood, that the brutalizirg Of ones self by
intoxicating hquor is no valid plea for The CON-
mission of CRIME. II il we're allowed as an ex-
cuse. and ground Of exemption, then all that
ruffians would have to do before committing
murder, or highway robbery, or any other crime
would be to stupefy their senslbiltles with drink
and the law would not hold them responsible
fer the offense.
The plea was never urged with more persis-
tency than in the case of Foster, bat the
courts all set it aside. On the very day that
Foster was executed two young rufians were
arraigned before Judge Brady for an assault
committed on citizen on the Sunday night pre-
vious. The offense was this: Mr.. Antoldi.
the complaint, was attacked in Ihrty-slxth
street. took refuge IN third avenue car, was
carried thence to Seventy-sixth street, wae,at-
tackled again and ran from the car, tho accused
pursuine him, and was finally robbed in the
street Their counsel admitted the offence, but
nIeaded among other things that they were I'M
der the influence OF liquor, and did not know
what they we're about. Judge Brady said he
cortainlv sbould not pay the slightest attention
20 anv plea of intoxicatron. and sentenced
tbeyo zach 10 fifteen years at hard labor in the
state Prison. He said, moreover, that IL he
had the seller OF the liquor before him, he

William Cullen Bryant is down in Flor

flood and Noah's ark. We quote from his
account of the flood as follows:
"And den de rain come down, but NOAH
he set comfortable and dry in de ark and
read his Bible. And de rain com down in

Some time ago there lived gentleman
of indolent habits in Sussex, who made a
business, in the winter season, of visiting
his friends extensively. After wearing
out his welcome in his own immediate
vicinity last winter, he thought he would
visit an old Quaker friend, some twenty
miles distant, who had been school-fel>
low of his. On his arrival he was cordial
ly received by the Quaker he shrinking
his visitor had taken much pains to come
so far to see him. He treated his friend
with great attention and politeness forsev-
eral days, and as he did not see any, signs
of his leaving, he became uneasy, but he
bore it with patience till the morning of
the eighth day, when he said tohim: )
"My friend, l am afraid thee will never
visit me again."
"Oh, yes 1 SHALL" said the visitor: II
have enjoyed my visit very much shall
certainly come again. u b ~
g. "Nay," said the Quaker, II think thee
will not visit me again" 5.lAea fnH y
"What makes you think I will not come
again ?" asked the visitor. ssH
-"If thee does never leave,' said the
Quaker chow canst thee come again p"
