UNANIMITY OF THE NEW ORLEANS
PRESS.

We believe the whole American press
of this city is in accordant condemnation
of the Cuban outrage, most OF them
taking the ground announced by the
American secretary some time since, that
if the insurgents are not belligerents,
then there is no war, and consequently no
contraband cargoes The foreign press
does not, however. take the same
interes. in the fate Of american
citizens. IAbedle, q French journal
published in New Orleans, speaks
OF ''the American government, and
coolly saysit can find ''a good or bad prsteH
0: intervention in the affairs of Cuba, but
if il does so it will be because it will serve
its interests and its political views
Z .il.We assumes that o nation invaded
or disturbed by instruction may mete
out any punishment it may choose to the
captured. 1t illustrates this doctrine by
the case of the Count RaousseS-Boulbon,
who having Invaded Sonora on his own
hook, was captured. When asked by his
captos what he would have done toward
prisoner in similar case, Monsieur lie
Comte, with that high chivalry which ever
and peculiarly characterizes the nobility
OF France. even when flibustering, re.
piled: ~ should have shot him. Where.
upon. his ehivalrous response having
been, we suppose, duly noted on the
military report, he was shot as per
request. This view OF political inseressas
the sole incentive 70 Intervention ignores
entirely the American sympathy in favor
OF those who may be victims Of barbarous
terocity. 70 the average Frenchman, IA
miliar with the fusilades of the Commun-
lists and the antecedent and historical
horrors Of the Bastile and the guillotine,
q spectacle Of blood or o: oppression is
little nor than . bull fight. Those
reared under purely republican teachings
and traditions must be paYdoae3 for a
sympathy with human wrongs, and the
sufierings of families beseaved by
despotic cruelty. They CAR afford
to despise the reproaeh Of bsing
only moved 20 intervention by ''theis in
terests and political views IN this dis
sent from the sympathetic position Of the
papers published il New Orleans, readers
will remember that it is but q foreign
opinion upon American affairs. The mass
of the French citizens Of Louisiana rec
gard the Cuban outrage as alike q viola.
ton Of the law Of nations, of the honor
o! the American flag and o: every dictate
OF civilized humanity.

others On the Virgirius is similar to
the capture of Mason and SEdell. In
that case, instead Of giving Mason and
Sidell hasty drum-head courtmartial
and hanging them for treason, the United
States government ordered them back to
the custody Of the power under whose
flag they were sailing at the time
of their capture This was done
in accordance with international laws
and that spiri. which should govern civil
lied nations. Acts of INSTRUMENTATION
among tie crew of Commodore Wilkes
vessel gave him the authority to try and
punish the guilty ones, even to death, bat
be had no such authority over Mason and
Slidell and although they were guilty OF
great crime to their country it did not
seek to hold them in contravention of the
laws Of nations. The government of the
United States, feeling that Commodore
Wilkes. in his anxiety TO benef. his
country. had violated the nights of England
apoiogized 90 that power for the wrong
done by g subordinate; a wrong not
stained with blood or marked with sign
of barbarism. How different has been the
fate of Ryan, yarona and others captured
by Spanish subordinate authority?
They were carried into Cuba, tried and
executed with haste that was far more
eages for blood than justice. The subordi-
mates Of the Spanish government in Cuba
have thus assumed fearful responsibility,
not only to their own, but to the civilized
governments of the world, and particu-
larry 20 that and people of the United
States. The capture of Che Virginius, and
the slaughter Of her passengers and crew,
IS an insult to the American flag, and foul
blot upon the civilization Of the nine
seenth century. No apology that Spain
can make will be sufficient 90 atone
FOR the lives OF the human beings
recently brutally murdered in cold blood,
with malice aforethought. almost within
view and hearing Of our own people. The
and foSbearing as possible under the cir
cumstanc es, knowing the weak and disor-

pie that must have an influence with the
government. 1t will be compelled by
the force Of public opinion to grant bel

otherwise they suffer and strive and starve

their organized assistance and that,
whether they are church members or net

oneself unspotted from the world.
To assemble every Sunday in an airy
or well-warmed building, dressed in
ones best, and be preached at, prayed
for and sung to may be regarded
by many as recognition of the
claims of Christianity upon the human
soul, and when to this IS added an
ardent zeal for certain test doctrines,
regular attendance at prayer meeting, al
active interest in the Sunday school, an
occasional contribution for new church
carpet and a willingness to take charge Of
fairs and attend CHAR able concerts, 10
may be considered that the whole duty Of
man has been accomplished, although the
paramount one Of active personal benev.
olence, solem My stated by the Saviour
himself to be the distinction between his
friends and his enemies, may base Been
totally ignored.
It is, however, with the churches in
their corporate capacity that the duty rests
of so organizing the benevolent sentiments
OF their members that they may achieve
benefcent results. This We know is done
20 certain extent in many Christian So
cieties; but it should be done on larger
scale and in more systematic manner.
The feminine element 10 particular, so full
Of energy that after attending TO household
concerns, fulfilling social duties, and COM
plying with the burdensome demands Of
fashion, it still has time and force left to
expend in the concerns Of the whole neigh

ton of its supelfuous activity for the
benefit Of the poor; not waiting to be ap.
pealed to, for the class aforementioned

40 steps whatever in this direction, is 40
church at all. Il is sham, and the sooner
its members dissolve connection with it
and unite with some live communion that
recognizes the frs. of Christian duties
charity-the better il will be tor them
selves and society, and especially for sle
poor.
The government, too, as che representa-
tive Of society at large, has duty 10 per-
form in this matter. 1t should provide

poor need not be driven TO beggary or

sometimes appear that similar care has
