MILITARY INTERFERENCE IN CIVIL
AFFAIRS.

The first, the chief duty of an officer in til,
army, is to obey orders. He is not permitted
to inquire whether the orders which he re
ceives are judicious and proper. He mus
obey, for without implicit obedience to al
orders, ernanating from the superior in com
mand, there could be no discipline. Whe1
Gen. De Trobriand said, ~ am soldier
SIR" he recognized and fully comprehended
the duty Of an officer. He is Frenchman by
birth and education, and his ideas Of military
obedience are derived from the country of his
nativity. France is an empire, though nomi-
nally q republic, great and powerful Its
center is Paris. Its territory is divided into
departments, which bear the same relation to
the government as counties here do to States.
France legislates for the departments, but
the United States have no power to legislate
for any State, and, Of course, for no county in
State. The government of France has con-
troll over all the divisions of her territory.
The United States is . grand nation-a great
power in only one sense. It is a nation, as
regards all other nations, and in no other
SSAAN'os
States, or over the subdivision Of States.
When it legislates upon the subject of public
lands, or post roads, or military roads, or har-
bors, or forts, or lighthouses, or custom
houses, itlegislates not for one or more States,
but for the people of all the States.
De Tocqueville is the only Frenchman who
has written upon the United States who I'M
derstands, infinitely, the nature of our govern
ment. Having laid down the general idea If
the character Of the government of the United
States, we now come to question: Was Gen.
De Trobriand right in obeying an order Of
Kellogg, when he said II am Q soldier?' He
has been censured severely for his act on the
18th of January. Can he Justify himself? We
say no, and We said SO in our issue of Janu-
ry5.
An officer in the army must obey orders |
from his superior, and he must
treat with contempt all orders issued by one |
not attached to the army. His orders came
directly from Kellogg. Was he, as an officer, |
N duty bound to obey Kellogg? Let him
answer that question. But he may reply, |
Kellogg, in issuing his orders, had authority |
rom the officer in command? Will that be |
any excuse for him ? Not the least. If neces-
'ary. Kellogg will deny that he ever gave any
orders
If Kellogg says he derived his authority
rom Gen. Emory, that answer will not pro-
ect Gen. De Trobriand, for IS an officer, in
military orders, he must know that
he orders reach him. from his superior, in
he military channel. Gen. Emory had no
light to issue said orders to Gen. De Trobriand
Md so We may trace up the issuing Of the
rider to Gen. De Trobriand, from one to
mother until we reach the President who, We
understand, justifies the act Of the army officer
lere.
From all the discussions we have read,
rom all the decisions Of our courts, we are
Informed that there are but two cases in
Ih!ch the President and Congress can inter u

Chinese MOneY-BrOkers.

A San Francisco paper says that the
manufacture by Chinese in that city of
boots, shoes, slippers, cloths of various
descriptions, iewelry, and the almost
unlimited number of other business en-
terprises in which they are regularly
engaged, is being daily augmented.
The latest branch of business which
they have taken hold of vigorously is
that of money-brokers. A year or two
since one or two Chinese capitalists,
seeing a golden opportunity in this di-
rection, formed q cOpartnership and
opened a place of business in a retired
edifice off Dupont street, buying and
selling gold and silver coin, They did
a thriving business, and six months ago
one of the members of the firm departed
for his home in the Orient, having
amassed a fortune sufficient to satisfy
his wants during the remainder of his
DAYS. The success attending his efforts
was not long in spreading, and has
since caused the establishment of five
or six other institutions of the same
character. The parties engaged in the
business are Cinnamon OF means, and
have from s., 900 to $50, 900 each. They
do a large business in buying aud sells
ing the new American trade dollar,
which Is almost entirely superseding
the Mexican coin of the same demon
nation, and also exchange much paper
currency.

THE ICELAND VOLCANO
The Recent eruption Very SeriOu

Mr.. Eirikr Magnusson writes to the

The Recent eruption a Very Serious
AHair-A Terrible shower of Ashes.
Mr.. Etrikr Magnusson writes to the
London Times
The accounts Just received by the last
mail from Iceland assume a far more
serious aspect than the first news would
have led one to anticipate. A resident
in Bardardal, valley short distance
west of the locality of the eruption,
writes What fearful times we have
had of it here in the north this winter
First we were visited by earthquakes,
which, in some places, terminated all
but fatally, and then came the eruption,
with its concomitant dust gloom and
full of ashes. The DyngiufjoH are iu-
cessantly vomiting fire every day we
watch the smoke column rising to an
apparently unmeasured height in the
air. The eruption is spreading steadily
over the wilderness, and it may be said
that the whole Region of the Myratu
mountains is one blazing fire."
1t appears that westerly winds have
been chiefly prevalent and have borne
the ashes over the East Firths, covering
a very large area. On March 90 the
tall of the ashes was so excessive that 1T
covered the eastern country sides,
Jokuldal, especially, with a coat six
inches at its thickest and ali that day,
although it was bright and sunny, the
people spent in absolute pit n darkness.
Fountains and rivulets were damned by
the ashes, and every mountain stream,
always of a crystalline purity in eastern
Iceland, where there are neither glaciers
nor 6 moraine," ran dark and muddy
between banks covered with drifts of
ashes. The farmers have fled out of
the ash-covered country sides with cat
tie in quest of pastures not yet de-
stroyed by the soiri@, but with what
chance of saving their live stock does not
appear. To all appearance, the present
eruption seems likely to become a ca
lamitOus event to Iceland.
