The Glorious Fourth and It's Celc-
brntiOn.

The usual amount of patriotism and powder
appears to have been expended on yesterdays
celebration in this city, and, according to the
telegraphic dispatches, our neighbors seem 10
have kept up the observance OF the day with
comnendable spirit. 1t is the privilege OF the
party ont of office to take advantage OF the
national anniversary to arraign the party IN
Office for all sorts of wicked designs against
the independence we celebrate, and to set
forth in language deliberately frescoed with
adjectives the necessity Of restoring the
opposition to place and power If we would
preserve the government founded by our
fathers. OF course, the Tammany democracy
awaited themselves of this privilege, and their
example was, no doubt followed by their
brethren in other localities. On the other
hand the party in power generally assumes
the right to glorify the anniversary, as if it
were especially their anniversary, and as if all
its glories were their glories. The opposition
resembles the powder crackers, fixing and
popping, scattering their fire indiscrimi-
nately and making great noise while
doing but little damage. The Tins" are
more like the rockets, which shoot upwards
into the air and spread out their splendors
with brilliant magnifcence calculated to
make the spectator forget the stick that soon
falls to the earth. We presume the admins
tration celebrators made rockets of them
selves yesterday, as usual.
Our columns unfortunately show greater
number of casualties than we are ordinarily
compelled to record. There were shootings
and burnings, some fatal, and fires of more or
less consequence These things are the penal
ties of our exuberant patriotism. They are to
be expected when pistols and fireworks are toys
for twenty-fo four hours in the hands of children,
and men who are more reckless than children,
and when we allow ourselves and our families
q license from which we should shrink on any
other day in the year. Of course it is all
right and proves the intensity Of our
Americanism, even if the most enthu-
siastic celebration of the day comes beyond
question from Germans and Irishmen
Nevertheless, but few persons grieved wher
the rainstorm of last evening partially put 6
stop to the patriotic bombafdment in tn
streets or will fail to enjoy the calm of to
night and to feel grateful that the "gloriou
Fourth" will not come again until next year.

The INTELLECT OF WoMEN.-The Dean of
Chester recently made speech in which he
quoted the opinion of the examiner of Latin
at the collegiate schools to the effect that, COM
pairing the girls with the boys who had been
studying during the same time, he would give
q verdict decidedly in favor of the girls. The
tendency of modern inquiry is to show con-
clusively that the long accepted theory that
rently more intellectual than women, is erro-
neous. When we give women the same op-
portunitles in modern society that we give
men, in the way Of industry and education,
what is called the woman question will settle
itself

JUSTICE IN THE SoUTH.--The New Orleans
Bulletin complains of the conduct of Judge
Woods and Governor Kellogg sitting in back
room playing "set back euchre" while the
jury in the Grant parish trials were out trying
to agree on verdict. ''The lives of eight
men," says the critical Bulletin, ''were being
balanced between life and death at that very
time in the neighboring jury room as the
Judge watched for ace and right bower to
turn up" Furthermore according to the
Bulletin, 'this is fit commentary on the
condition of the people OF Louisiana, and no
argument could be more effective" We agree
with the Bulletin. Certainly no argument
could be more effective

The GERMAN JOURNALS inform us that Pro-
fessor Greist an eminent German writer, is
shout to leave for America for the purpose Of
making researches in the State archives for a
history OF the American constitution. We
are also informed that the Professor will be
the guest Of President Grant during his stay.
If this is true the Professor had better post
pone his visit until the President returns from
Long Branch. The archives of our seaside
capital are, we fear, not rich in material
affecting the constitution.

SUMMERS LFE.-A New England news
paper announces upon authority that 81. w.
Longfellow, the poet, is about to write the
life of Sumner. Mr.. Longfellow is at the
head of American literature; no American,
certainly, holds SO high and honorable place.
His relations with Sumner were those of Pc
culiar intimacy, and be would bring to his
work not only the highest culture, but low
ing tenderness of criticism which would make
the work masterpiece in biography.

IT Is STATED that the necessary papers to
test the legality of the reappointDaent of the

pared last night and will be acted on to-mor-

called for Tuesday for the purpose of prepar-
ing charges against Mayor Havemeyer, to be
presented to the Governor of the State.

Mr. Freeman Clarke declines denomination.
His health is uncertain, and Washington VIII
not tempt him. If this tendency on the part
of the veterans to retire from the ranks con-
tinues we shall have a raw House in the
Forty-fourth Congress. What is the cause OF
this sudden aversion to public life?

Spain and the United States.

The National Republican has mysterious
article evidently speaking by authority, in
reference to the relations between Spain and
the United States especially arising out of
the Virginius case. ''Mr. Cushing's efforts,
says the Republican, shave been so fagrantly
misstated and misrepresented that it is proper
to explain in this connection the position
which he really occupies. By the terms of
the protocol all questions arising from the
difficulty after the surrender of the Vir-
ginius, including reciprocal reclamations,
are to be the subject of consideration
and arrangement between the two gov
ernments, and in the event of no agree
ment being reached they are to be the sub
ject of arbitration. The negotiations of
Mr.. Cushing, it is well known, have been
made under this provision of the protocol,
and can consequently end in nothing but
arbitration. At the same time it is posi-
Bile, although there is no authentic infor-
government may be induced, in view Of
the change Of government at Madrid and
the activity of the British government in
pressing its demands for reclamati on, to in
sist more vigorously than it has for several
months past that some definite conclusion
shall be reached, and that Spain shall no
longer be allowed to delay results by means of
her characteristic temporizing policy" This
confirms the views we recently expressed on
this subject We are glad to see that the gov
eminent has shown its resolution that ''Spain
shall no longer be allowed to delay results by
means of her characteristic temporizing
policy" Nothing could injure the prestige
of this government in Spain or in any of the
Spanish possessions more than any weakness
on the part of Mr.. Fish. We cannot afford
to allow England to enforce demands upon
Spain that we do not also enforce. We suffered
as gravely as England; and if it can by any
means be drawn into a precedent that O
Spanish butcher like Burriel can take
Americans on the high seas and shoot them
without trial then we have no power to pro-
tect our flag.

The FREEDMAN's SAVINGS BANK.-No event
more unfortunate has recently occurred than
the suspension of the Freedman's Savings
Bark. We had hoped from the earnest assur-
ances of Frederick Douglass, in his letter to
the HERALD. that the bank was only in tenn
porary embarrassment, that the assets far
exceeded the liabilities, and that in little
time, with care and patience and prudence,
all would be well. Now we learn that the
business has suspended, that many of the
poor, ignorant depositors are selling their
pass books for o large discount, and that the
Bank Examiner thinks the assets will pay
ninety-tbree cents on q dollar to depositors.
This will be loss of seven per cent on the
principal alone--not as much as we feared,
but more than, under the circumstances, should
be incurred. The whole business is very
painful, and, although we do not have much
confidence in Investigations we should like to
see this corporation thoroughly scrutinized.
