ON tho other hand, while many OF them arc
Monarcbists at heart are as much disincined
to fraternize with the violent Legitimlsts as
with the radical Republicans. They suifer all
the embarrassment of q position which they
are not prepared to define and detend. vi all
the solutions of the crisis which have Deen
proposed the weakest and most impracticable
appears to be the one to which NJ. Goulards
efforts were at first directed, and which was
supposed to have the sanction and approval
of the President; to form Government from
this faction of the Right Center, itself mi
nority of the Chamber, and the most colorless
and nerveIess Of all the fractions OF the AS
semby. Such a Government would court
defeat. and doubtless achieve it on the iirst
occasion.
IL has, we think, been too much taken Tor
granted that coalition between the Leglt-
mists and the Republicans to effect dissolution
of the Assembly was impossible. Such vote
might be cast with no inconsistency upon
either side. The Left has demanded dissolu-
ton as crying necessity for two years past.
The Legitimists hold their seats In the Assem-
bly, not as mere politicians or ofhce-hoiders,
but, to use the language OF one OF them, as
men of conscience, of honor, and OF PATRIOTISM,
for the good of France and the restoration
of the King, objects which they consider
synonymous AS long as an alliance between
them and the other factions of the Right
served to prevent the establishment of the
Republic, and to keep the door open for
the return of the Comte dc Chambord, they
were willing to vote with the Government
which they understood to be cooperating with
these ends. But there is no longer any GER
tainty that the existing Government ID Oh any
service to them. NJ, do Broglie proposes TO
organize the Septennate without any regard to
the illustrious exile Of FrohsdorR The Le-
gitimists might therefore vote, with entlre
consistency, to dissolve an Assembly wnich
appears useless to the monarchy, and if they
are defeated at their homes, to retire with
dignity from the political field. Their chance
in new elections would be at least as good as
that of their bashful allies, and the Republic
of NJ. Gambetta would be little more oblec-
tionablo to them than that of NJ. dc Broglie.

Tur PRESIDENTS OPPORTUNITY.

Yesterdays prices show United States five
per cent bonds of the new loan to be worth
over two per cent above par in gold in New
York. after deducting the interest accrued
since the maturity of the last coupon, on the
1st of May. In london the same bonds are
worth between one and two per cent above
par in gold, tho accrued interest being
deducted Now is our opportunity to
reduce the interest on the S93O,0OO,OOo
of five-twenty six per cent bonds which
were still outstanding at the date of the last
Debt Statement. 1t is probable that every
dollar of that debt can be called in for pay
ment, and replaced with five per cent bonds
within the next eighteen months We wish
here to invite attention to certain reasons
wby we think it likely that this can be done
now better than two or three years hence,
and to urge on Congress and tho President
the importance of having it done.
After great prOstration or the speculative
spirit. like that of last Fall, people who have
money to invest are shy of all new undertake
ings aud doubtful securities, but solid invest
ments. like Government bonds, are in great
demand. This feature of the financial situa-
ton is now manifest in the prices of our Gov
ernment bonds. They are at the highest level
attained since the war, but it would be cx-
tremely rash to suppose that tho rise
is to continue indefinitely. When the present
feeling of distrust subsidies and the specu-
lative spirit again takes hold OF the world,
United States bonds will be sold out and the
money invested in undertakings which promise
higher interest. Prices will then have down.
ward turn until another reaction takes place,
with its inevitable accompaniment OF caution
and distrust.
TO some persons all this may seem theoret-
ical. and for their benefit we give few facts
which they will find it hard to explain on
other grounds than those we have stated. The
following table, from an official document pub
lished by the Government OF Great Brltaln'
shows the average price OF English consols for
New-York tribune., 1874-05-21

Beyond the statement of those facts, tho table
needs no explanation other than that we have
given above 1t is clear that the same phe-
nomenon is now repeating itself, both here and
in England, where the collapse of specula-
ton and speculative prices is quite as
marked as it is here. We would suggest to
President Grant the propriety of placing at
the head of the Treasury some financier
capable of performing the simple operation
of paying off the fve-twenties at par and
selling five per cent bonds at as much more
than par as can be had for them. The idea
of selling four and half per cent bonds at
par in this or any other market, might as
well be abandoned for the present. Legisla-
ton should be asked for from Congress
authorizing the replacement of the entire mass
of outstanding ive-twenties with five per
cents, by which nearly ten millions can be
saved in our yearly payments for interest.

LILLE USES OF CARICATURE.

Some of the Administration organs at the
West feel outraged by the treatment which
those leading statesmen, Messrs. Morton, Lo-
gan, Ferry, and Carpenter, have received at
the hands Of an Eastern caricaturist whose
pencil they supposed belonged as much to
them as to President Giant. Some of his re-
cent caricatures having represented the West
ern statesmen as attempting to bully and
browbeat the President into the support of
their imitation schemes, and the President as
holding them at bay in lOrdly and majestic
fashion, the organs friendly to the statesmen
have denounced the pictures as brutal and
beastly, the artist as man without decency,
and the publishers as ignorant, reckless, and
unprincipled. To illustrate the ignorance as
well as the Inconsistency of the publishers,
one of these journals has published a letter
which they sent to President Grant on the 21st
of September, 1873, at the beginning of the
panic, urging him to lend twenty millions in
greenbacks to the New York City banks. as
the only way to avoid financial deadlock.
In retaliation for their misrepresentation of the
views of the Western statesmen and the dis
graceful caricatures which they have published,
it has been urged by some of the organs of
luf1atlOn UndC tHe bCUOOl-DOOhS puDlbUeu Dy
the offending firm be banished from every
school-house in the West.
Granting that the friends of the w estern
statesmen have real grievance against the
publishers referred to, the retaliatory methods
recommended by the angry journals do not
strike us as being entirely wise. Indeed, the
manifestation of temper at all under the cir
cumstances does not seem discreet. Other
persons in official position as prominent as
these latest victims of the caricaturist's pencil
-may we not say, too, equally honest, able,
and sincere f-have had worse treatment at the
same hands and borne it in silence. Do we
err in saying that those carcatures, simply
and absolutely brutal as they were, with
hardly redeeming flash of wit, and certainly
none OF the genial quality of humor. were
more warmly applauded by these complain
ing statesmen and their friends than by any
other men or class of men in the countryf 1t
was the sort OF thing that commended its elf
to their tastes and judgments as better than
argument. The qualities Of mind and heart
that find occupation and use in convincing the
people that to issue promise to pay dollar
is increasing the wealth of the country to the
amount of dollar, find also legitimate em-

THE DLSSOL UTION QUESTION At YER
glJYIES

SAILLES
The sorrows Of q hypOchOndriac. which his
friends impatiently call imaginary, are never
theless as genuine and as painful as any real
Affections could be and the political crisis
through which France is now passing Is none
the less serious because foreign observers can
see very little sense in it. TO our eyes it
would seem that the only expedient and hon
est thing to do, would be for the Assembly,
recognizing the fact that parliamentary gov
ernment has become impossible by the revolt
of the Extreme Right from the majority with
which it has hitherto acted, to put an end to
its own useless existence, and allow an appeal
to the country, which may result in the
return of an Assembly with convic-
tions and purposes in harmony with
those of the great mass Of voters.
Yet a dispatch received here yesterday states
that it was rumored in Paris that the two ex-
tremes of the Chamber had united in de-
mand to this effect, and that upon this rumOr
the Bourse was hattened. 1t is hard to con-
ceive of q more perfect illustration of Mr..
Grant Whites definition of Conservative
zone who stays in the hot water for fear he
"should be scalded." The country is agltated
the body polite. There is proposition made
to take the only measure which can possibly
give permanent relief, and capital, the most
conservative thing in existence, is alarmed at
the prospect. 1t is true that this measure is
proposed by the two extreme parties, and
possibly the mercantile mind believes that no
good can come from those quarters.
Another refuge for the harassed MacMahon
Government is to compose Cabinet from the
two Centers which shall shift the majority ID
the direction of the Republic. 1t is by no
means certain that this can be accomplished
and it is perfectly well known that such
step would be extremely distasteful to Marshal
MacMahon and his immediate surroundings
The Right Center has always evinced especial
repugnance to the idea of being absorbed by
the Left and the members Of the Left Center
will not be likely to agree to any coalition
which should omit sincere and decisive
affirmation of the Republic. The latter have
infinitely the stronger position. They are
openly and avowedly devoted to the estab-
lishment of q reasonable and orderly republi-
can government, and while they did not vote
for the MacMahon Government, nor for the
Scptennate bill by which the tenure of the
power of the Duke of Magenta is affirmed
for seven years, they have never made any
factiOus attack upon his administration, nor
have they intimated any intention to interfere
with the tenure Of his Presidency established
by Law. The members Of tho Right Center,
New-York tribune., 1874-05-21
IN fMPERTINENT INOUTRy

The House of Representatives did well in
rejecting by such a decisive vote Judge Po-
lands resolution for a committee of inquiry
into the character of the government of Ar
kansas There is no excuse for the interfer-
ence of Congress in this case. The quarrel
between the rival claimants for the governor
ship has been decided by the proper authority
and it is the business of the executive now
to restore order.
That clause of the Constitution which pro.
vides that the United States shall guarantee
to every State in this Union a republican
form of government" has been tortured and
twisted in many ways of late years. and we
observe with concern a disposition on the part
Of great many respectable politicians
to put it to most unwarrantable uses.
Il is pretended that under this clause
Congress may inquire not merely whether o
State is governed by republican forms, but
whether its laws are honestly administered:
that it may revise the returns OF the canvass
ers of election, test the titles of claimants TO
office, examine the constitutionality of legis-
latiye enactments, constitute itself in short q
general guardian and protector, and meddler
with the local concerns of the State and Of
every community embraced in 1t. Nothing
can be more clear than that the new theories
of Federal interference were not in the con-
templaton of the trainers OF the Constitution.
Every State has its own tribunals for decid-
ing contests for office, correcting election
frauds, and revising its legislation and 1t
has never been assumed until lately that Con-
gress can make itself great Court OF APP
meals to review the decisions of the State
authorities.
If the language of the clause were not too
clear to be misunderstood, an Interpretation
might easily be found in the pages of "The
"Federalist.n That work correctly explains the
provision as safeguard against the elntroduction
into the federal coalition of aristOcratic ana
monarchical Innovations" The moro IN
innate the nature of such union may oe'
"the greater interest have the members IN the
"political institutions of each other, and the
"greater right to insist that the forms OF goy'
"ernment under which the compact was
"entered into should be substantially main
stained" And Story says. in reply to the
objection that the clause might become pre-
text for alterations in the State Governments
without the concurrence OF the States them
selves: "The authority extends 10 further
ethan to guaranty of republican form OF
government, which suppOses a precxisting
government of the form which is to be
guaranteed. AS long, therefore, as the ex-
listing republican forms are continued by the
Estates, they are guaranteed by the Federal
"Constituton. Whenever the States may
"choose to substitute other republican forms.
"they have right to do so, and to claim the
"Federal guaranty for the latter. The only
"restriction imposed on them is that they
"shall not exchange republican for anti-re-
publican constitutions" That is the whole
scope of this much-abused provision.
