THE THREATENED CONFLICT,

The New York Herald, in its issue of
the 18th inst, makes some very peril
nent and impartial remarks concerning
the threatened antagonism between the
white and colored races. The Herald
says, and we think correctly, that too
much importance has been given to the
brawls and disturbances that have taken
place at different places, as portents or
forerunners Of serious and desperate
conflict. The rencontres that have al
ready taken place are entirely sporadic,
arising solely from local causes, and do
not originate from any general design or
understanding ON either side. In them
selves frequently involving, as they do,
loss of life, they are lamentable and de-
plorable. They should by oil means be
promptly suppressed, and those who are
guilty Of provoking them, whether white
or black, should be severely punished.
In another point of view they do become
of Importance, and that is as symptoms
OF q deep-seated disease, the cure of
which will tax the energies and talents
of the wisest and most patriotic Of all
classes and sections. We allude to the
frightful misgovernment of the South
and the wretched condition to which
that vicious system has reduced so large
portion Of the area OF the United
States. The matter should not be looked
at from a sectional or party standpoint.
but from the high and broader plane of
humanity and patriotism. The evils
complained of-of which the excuses we
allude to are merely the indicia-ars &C.
knowledged to exist by the best men of
all parties, who at the same time express
their readiness to aid in applying reme-
dies, il they can only be ascertained.
The search after curative means will
never be successful unless the distorting
and obscuring lenses OF party passion
are discarded. There is no question of
party about it. 1t is, or should be SIM
ply an honest, ingenious effort
to save very large portion of
our common country from ruin
and its inhabitants from misery. To &C.
complish this end, we would urgently
desire men Of all parties to throw away
all previous prejudices and unite in
common effort to bring peace and hap
piness to distracted and miserable por-
tion-and a very large portion-of our
fellow citizens. The South is American
soil, and its citizens are our brethren.
That which affects them affects the whole
country. Self-interest, therefore, and
the instinct Of self.preservation should
teach all to take lively Interest in so
important an undertaking, which is
daily becoming more urgent. When to
these considerations are added those of
humanity, Of brotherhood, of citizenship
and patriotism; surely the task is worthy
Of the best efforts of the wisest, the pur-
est and ablest throughout the country,
and to them We would address ourselves.
Asking them first to discard all precon-
ceived prejudice, and essay a task which,
undertaken in the catholic spirit we
have indicated. they will certainly bring
to a successful issue. By doing this
they will earn the blessings Of millions,
and for their reward see restored reu-
nited, and prosperous country cemented,
not by an enforced union, but by con.
cord Of hearts and hands.

lean dictionaries in USE 1t instances
two words. one ''jew, used as verb,
meaning to overreach. The other, ''jes-

very properly SO, from all future edi-

Heaven only knows, except it may be

the definition of the word in the sense
alluded to is simply disrespectful with

ever necessary and right. that the Pres

But if the House should formally GEN.

THE SECRETARY OF THE
TREASURY.

The Committee on Ways and Means,
in its report upon the SANBoRN contracts,
denounced severely" the carelessness
of the Secretary of the Treasury and his
immediate assistants, but exonerated
them form the charge of corruption, and
confessed that it could not precisely de-
termine where the responsibility of those
iniquities lay. This was the chief COM
mittee of a Republican House speaking
of the Republican head of the Treasury,
and saying that he was culpably care
less in the discharge of his duties. 1t
did not occur to US that gentleman so
censured could consent to remain in his
position, and we assumed that he would
retire. But the assumption was incor-
rect. Yet the intention of the committee
was evident enough. 1t was to spare
the feelings both of the Secretary and
of the President by course which, with
out formally voting want of confidence
would have fully expressed that want,
and procured the resignation. What
effect, indeed, direct vote of the kind
would have remains to be seen, The
Secretary is ameanable to the House on
ly by impeachment, and vote of want
of confidence is merely an expression of
opinion when it is adopted by a House
which has passed the appropriation bills.
The force of such a vote in Parliament
is that it is an implied threat to close
the purse. In this country if the Pres
ident should decline to take any notice
of vote of eensure. the position of the
House might be a little absurd.
Both the President and the Secretary
must however be aware that the report
of the Committee on Ways and Means
has been approved by the country, and
whatever Congress may do, that the most
intelligent public opinion has passed a
vote of want of confidence against the
present management of the Treasury.
The reported remark of the President.
that he would not remove the Secretary
while he was under fire, VIC take to be
a pleasant fiction, unless the word aun-
justly" has dropped out of the story.
If he thinks the Secretary has been un-
justly condemned by the Committee on
Ways and Means and by the press
that Is to say, if the President thinks
that the Secretary has not been careless
but, on the contrary, scrupulously care
ful-then he believes him to be uniustly
under fire, and properly refuses to re
move him. But in that case the Presi
dents theory of official carefulness would
be an interesting study. Fidelity {,

of the President. The harder the storm

consequences are neither unamiable no
unhandsome. That it sometimes Der

That in high sense the President shout,
be no respecter of persons is evident
: That If he permits personal regard t
control his official duty hs is culpable
! Is not to be denied. But if the reade

SANITARY.

The hot weather has come so sudden
ly. that it will work great changes in
the physical system, as we'll as in ma
ture, and it behooves us to exercise great
care if we would preserve health. Tenn
perance in eating, drinking and exercise
will keep the system in condition to
ward off diseases, and to overcome them
if they attack us; but there are few who
are so well and so strong, that they can
not bring on sickness by abusing their
stomachs with that which is indigcs.ible
and otherwise bad. This done the summer
diseases will appear, and we shall la
ment that the season Is so sickly. Bet
ter would it be to know now. and prac-
tice now the simple rules that in nine
cases out of ten will keep us healthful.
But there are other causes that produce
disease than those mentioned, which we
can destroy if we choose. There may
be about every mans premises enough
of filth to poison the air and poison ev-
cry person that it comes in contact with.
Any decaying animal or vegetable mat
ter, manure, sink holes-all things and
places that are dirty and offensive, will
produce disease. and it is the poorest
policy to let our slovenliness be the
means of creating a doctors bill if moth
ing worse. Nearly all the malignant,
ugly fevers that come in the Fall, are
occasioned by seeds of disease that are
grown in places that might be purified,
and they float in the air, or, perhaps, in
the water we drink, just at that time in
the season when the system is enervated
and powerless to defend itself against
the approach or effect of disease. In
most instances family or a community
can prevent or create disease, as they
choose; and we ought not TO be so snort
sighted as to expose ourselves to the raw
ages of sickness, which are the sure re-
suits of intemperance in eating, drink
ing and exercise, and neglect to keep
everything about our premises clean and
wholesome. The prospects of good health
and long life are poor enough at best,
and we ought not to hazard them by
neglect of ordinary sanitary measures.
