DELIGHTED.

The s.. Louis Times thus rejoices owe,
the nomentary non-action Of the Senate
upon hill to improve the Mississippi
outlet, passed by representative majority
Of sixty-six:
The Fort st. Phi'ip canal bill met with a
very emphatic rebrI in the Senate yester-
day. The Tran poita.icn Committee. of
which Mr.. Window is chairman, reported
adversely on the bin, aud asked be fis.
charged from its further consideration.
The repol was accepted and tie committee
discharged, which settles its hash for this
session. Let the New Orleans REPUBLICAN
tell what it thinks of the United States
Senate.
Such is the sincerity Of journal which
pretends to be friend Of the Mississippi.
The Times knows that the Eads bill had
beer reported from the House committee
and that it was ANONYMOUSLY defeated
It knows that the congressional vote of
the Missouri delegation was cast, ten for,
three against the canal. Why then rejoice
If the route chosen upon fair comparison
by SO large a popular majority shall be
embarrassed? We can see but one interest
on the river fhat can reasonably rejoice.
1t is the Eads bridge, opened about the
same day that the Senate committee re-
ported adversely to the House bill and
moved The postponement of a year upon
work that cur river commerce is suffer-
ing for to-day.
The move in the Senate is to deprive Us
Of large appropriation and immediate
work. It is to afford refuted scheme a
further chance of embarrassing the COM
merce OF the river. In the meantime the
railroads running east take the commerce
Of St. Louis across the Mississippi. TIE
Times asks US t-iumphantly wba. we
think Of the United States Senate. We
will reply after tie Senate shall have
acted. In the meantime We candidly say
that such Senators as shall have Ia
bored in the Sense to defeat the |
will ct the peoples representatives may
find heavy responsibility over them. The
powers Of the great Jetlander over en-
average committeeman is well known,
but when the intellect and public interests
10 the American Congress
come to act they burst away the devices |
IF the little committeeman, as an alliga-
Tor would finish fish net We have no |
fear Of the American Senate It viii re-
'pect the will Of the soldier-grargers,
Who passed the canal bill By sizty-six
majority

RCCOINITTED,

Since J. II. Wilson, of Indiana, has
been repudiated by his constituents and
forced to go into an ob-cure ward of
Washington for any sort Of recognition,
he has been squirming to make himself
more famous than ever before. he has
by some means managed to persuade
Butler to give way temporarily as chair
man Of the Judiciary Committee to ena-
bic the great investigator TO present the
views of the Democratic members of the
committee in the DureN matter. This
was accomplished yesterday, but his re-
port was followed by two minority re-
ports from Republican members, which
seem to have had great weight with the
House, since the whole subject has been
recommitted. This amounts to defeat
Of Impeachment. We shall hear no more
Of it at this session, and perhaps less at
the next

FREE CuRA-

We have explained why it is the duty Of
every Republican without regard to color
or past condition to sympathize With the
struggle for religious freedom and emanci-
patton in Cuba. We have demonstrated
that every interest Of our country would
be promoted by the reciprocal exchange
OF products at lower rate of Spanish
duties than at present. It remains that
we should express our opinions as to the
legal positions of this conflict between
freedom and despotism. 1t is plain that
our government has had great difficulty
in predicating declaration Of independ-
ency or even Of belligerency Of the Cuban
patrios.
The richest part Of the island and the
whole revenues Of Cuba are in the hands
of Spain. The chief ports, the army, the
castle are all within the undisputed pos
session Of Spain. How may this diff
Guilty be solved? Simply by recognizing
the independence of Free Cuba within
the boundary and Foundation established
by its government.
This State Of Free Cuba is bounded bv
the Trocna where it crosses the island. and
by the surrounding sea. The State of
Slave Cuba occupies the rest of the island
and belongs to Spain. The REPUBLICAN
has heretofore given statistics to show
that the territorial area and population Of
the State of Free Cuba is sufficient to en-
able it to sustain its autocracy. It
divides Cuba into two States, just as San
Domingo has been divided into two States.
1t recognizes this separation By act Of
war, just as the creation of West Virginia
was recognized by act Of war. Itdeclares
the independence Of Free Cuba after four
years Of successful resistance, justas Con-
gress recognized the independence of
Texas within three months after its inva-
sion By Mexico, and seven years before
the termination Of that war.
We, therefore, recommend to the pa
triots of Free Cuba to ask the recognition
Of their independence within the limits
traced with their swords and maintained
with their machetes. Within these limits
they are sovereign, and may treat and be
treated with on the basis Of an indie
pendent government, deporting and de-
tending its own boundaries,
We trust that some Republican who re-

TEE PIC AND ITS PERsECUTogs.

We like the old fashion still kept up by
the PIC CT assailing with epithets argu-
nents to which it is unable to reply. It
is the Chinese resort to the most unsavory
missiles to nauseate foe with whom they
can not cope. Our course is more mod
ern, and, We think, more judicious Not
only DO We respect the amenities of the
press, bit We let the extraordinary gram
mar and logic Of the Pic pass, because
tley carry their own Iefut.tion, and be.
cause if we should turn the full batteries
Of the REPUBLICAN upon them we should
demolish the concern, as we have done
heretofore. The very venerable president
might then employ some writers more for
nidable. It became a public duty to
expose the objects Of social anarchy advo-
Gated by past administration Of the Pic.
This was done from a sense Of public
duty. The present direction being in
movably neutral in politics, and incurably
unconscious of all the attributes Of modern
journalism, requires no particular ccnsid-
Grafton. We can see the Quaker gun
poking out Of its port hole, its muzzle of
sof. wood, respondent with lampblack,
but we know it is Quaker gun and can
not waste thought or a shot in dislodg-
ing it. So we let the Pic wave. We
even saggest to Bernau to interfere when
the belligaren. Bulletin is belaboring it for
an immovab,e neutrality, modified by q
war Of races. The Pic is doing very
well at present. Il fights its tormentors
as a dog fights heas. We are some
times apprehensive that the feas will
whip. In such case We will come
to the aid of the Pic. We are al
ways for tie under dog in the fight any
way, and have no idea of seeing the pre-
postsrous Pic walowed and bitten by
''mongrel puppy, whelp and hound, and
cur CT low degree" We demand fair
play. The Pic can hold its own with
any one Of them, but when they nip it
behind and snap at its unguarded pos
terror, our American sympatLies are
awake and we shall invoke President Ber-
nau and impound with heavy assessments
all its inglorious assailants. So NIessieurs
Of the conglomera.e opposition you can
"go on with your ra. killing, but remem-
Der even the rats must have fair play.

cognixes the value of extending proper pro-
tsction to all who adopt republican prin-
ciples will introduce resolution in effect
dividing the island, and that the State of
Free Cuba may soon take that place in
the family Of independent nations which
the soundness Of its principles, the gal
lantry of its sons and the sympathies of
freemen award it. We always thought it
well that republican salvation should be
worked out with tribulation. It will
show the people whom to trust, but surely
five years of trial and suffering should be
passport to liberty, and the bruised
arms Of these faithful champions should
be hung up in the temple Of republican
freedom.
