THE RIGHT OF ASYLUM. When England
wanted the famous Bank of England forgers
Spain gave them up. Yet there was no
treaty of extradition between England and
Spain. Nor did America interfere, although
Mr.. Fish might have said, that in the alb
sence of q treaty stipulation to the contrary,
every citizen was entitled to the fullest right
of asylum. But as was well said at the
time, the Bank of England was the prose-
cutor, and the bank showed that her power
could go over the earth. This right of asy-
lum business is utter quackery: 1t might
be discussed with Turkey or China, but not
with an enlightened Power, because every
enlightened Power accepts it. Spain did
right to give up the Bank of England
forgers, and Mr.. Fish did right to consent
to the surrender. Yet if Mr.. Cross had been
Home Secretary the forgers would have es-
capped, under his foolish sensitiveness about
the right OF asylum

THE RIoHr TO KnI.--In the Recorders
Court young man named keenan, was yes
terday tried on the charge Of manslanghter,
he having stabbed one Richard Bell during
brawl provoked by the latter. The accused
admitted the killing, but claimed that he
was justified because he had been first
attacked. Except that the deceased man
had made some insulting remarks to
Kecnan's wife the fight between the men was
an ordinary row. The jury took lenient
view Of the killing and acquitted the prisoner
From this decision Recorder Hackett felt
compelled to express his dissent, on the
ground that che mere fact that man has
received q blow from the hand OF another
cannot be considered as sufficient justifica-
tion for the hasty use OF the knife This is a
sound position and will meet the approval
of all intelligent citizens. The knife at best
is cowardly weapon, and juries should be
careful not to encourage its hasty use.

1t does not surprise us to learn that strong

nue., and others, now in prison for dcfraud-
ing the government One of them was SEN
fenced on Saturday to two years imprison-
ment in the County Jail. His punishment
is q nominal one. something like that Of Boss

they would have gone to prison for twenty
years; but they used their authority, in
fuence and position, not alone to make
money, for money they had, but from sheer
avarice and to rob the government, and they
must be pardoned. We trust the Presi-
dent will deny the appeal. Pardon
would be stain upon his administra-
ton. 1t would do his party harm. II
would confirm the suspicion that he threw
Bristow out of his Cabinet because

AFRAID OF THE LIGHT. Stafford North
cote said in the House Of Commons on Tues
day evening that the British government
deprecated-any discussion of the question of
extradition. The reason is that the discus
sion would show that Mr.. Cross and Lord
Derby have forced England into false po-
sition; that they have entirely misconstrued
the question; that upon a mere suspicion
and in the interest of large commercial
houses in England who are believed to have
knowledge of the defrauding of the reve-
nues, they wantonly destroyed useful and
benefcent treaty. This is our conclusion
after careful reading of the English Blue
Book. If the English government is at
tackled on this treaty it cannot hold its
ground. The common sense of both nations
looks upon the disruption of this treaty as
calamity. We do not want our shores to be-
come the asylum for English murderers and
thieves The English feel the same way
about our criminals. In sacrificing this
treaty Lord Derby made grievous blunder.
No wonder his government deprecates any
discussion. If Lord Harrington is wiso he
will force it.

HoNoRs TO MAYOR WIcKHAM ladieA
Of Sorosis held picnic on Tuesday. We are
informed that the occasion of this gathering
was to celebrate the election of Mayor Wick.
ham to be one of the vice presidents Of the
ST. Louis Convention. As is we'll known
the Mayor has been the candidate of the
ladies for the highest Office in the gift Of the
people. II the Convention had declined &c
hear Miss Cozzens the other day it was the
Mayors intention to have thrown himself
into the breach. But the chivalry Of the
gallant watterson interfered. Watterson
little knew the man he suppressed; for, AZ
Colonel Tom Dunlap informed one Of ouy
correspondents Wickhams speech on the
woman question would have recalled the
days of Demosthenes and justified the en-.
thusiasm with which on Tuesday the Sorosis
ladies toasted His Honor in lemonade and
ice cream. The secret Of the Mayors popu-
larity with Sorosis and kindred associations
lies in his rare personal beauty. his poeticai
temperament. his musical voice, his love for
the beautiful and the true.

the weather. Then we hear Of nose pulling
and angry encounters on the stairs, and
bosom friends like Kelly and Wickham in
public controversy. The moral of it is,
never hold conventions in midsummer, or, if
Peak, or on one Of the Thousand Islands,
or in Sitka- 1t would not surprise US if this
holding conventions with the thermometer
ninety-fve in the shade were again to divide

CABINET CHANGES. There is general but
erroneous impression that President Grant
has made an extraordinary number Of
changes in his Cabinet. Leaving out Of the
reckoning the original appointments. he has
made but fourteen changes in nearly eight
years. Mr.. Lincoln made seven changes in
four years General Jackson made thirteen
in eight years: General Washington eleven in
his eight years Mr. Jefferson ten Mr..
Madison eleven Fillmore made ten in his
four years administration, and Tyler seven
teen. 1t thus appears that the Cabinet Of
General Grant has had about the usual
stability. Mr.. Fish, Mr.. Seward. Mr.
Madison and Mr.. John Quincy Adams are
the only Secretaries Of State who served
through eight years. Mr.. Monroe made
fewer Cabinet changes than any other Prcsi-
dent. only three in eight years

President MacMahon has exercised Execu-
tive clemency in the case of some eighty
seven prisoners of the Commune. This act
will do something to calm the fervor of
political agitation among the friends CT the
prisoners, and it is to be regretted that the
President-M Marshal did not go step further
in the road of reconciliation and make the
amnesty general Prosecution on account
of participation in the Communist insurrec-
ton is to cease, and with the end of
vindictive proceedings on the part Of
the government it is to be hoped
that the anger and desire for revenge on
the part of the Communist radicals may
also disappear. France now controls
her own destinies, and those who
desire the continuance of the re-
publican form of government cannot do
better than prove their fitness for self
government by displaying intelligent mod
GRAFTON. A certain class of theorists pretend
to cure all the evils Of humanity by the
application o: q favorite form of govern
ment, but the experience of free peoples
in oil ages shows conclusively that
misery and vice are inseparable from human
society, whatever form of government it may
adopt. If the French radical republicans
would only keep this fact in mind it would
preserve them from many serious blunders,
and would facilitate the extension Of per-
feet amnesty to their comrades who expiate
in prison their rebellion against society and

Have tho People Any Rights Which
Corporations are Bound to Respect.
The people are watching with great inter-
est the case between the street railways and
tho steam railways before the Superior Court.
The owners of the street cars are exhausting
every agency to prevent the building of the
elevated or underground road The burden
of the argument is expressed by Lawyer
Choate, who, all the time no doubt looking
as wise as an owl. informed the Court that
steam road would be especial injury" to
the horse cars, because it would draw
of their travel. We trust there is no
judge on our Bench who will listen for
moment to this preposterous proposition.
II is the old argument against progress,
and experience shows how absurd it is.
The effect of the building Of the Gilbert
road would be, not to destroy the franchise
Of any street railway, but to improve it.
There would be fewer cars, but they would
run moro comfortably. There would be
none of those sardins trips which we see
morning and evening. The horse cars are
needed for short journeys and will always
be useful, and il we'll managed will yield
revenue to their owners; but the city has
outgrown the capacity of the horse cars.
They are not intended for long distances,
and experience will show this when we have
rapid transit.

CAx TILpES CARRY New YORK THE
Governor Is reported by one of our Albany
correspondents saying that he can carry
New York by fifty thousand majority. We
have no doubt the Governor thinks so. He
carried New York once, and il is the most
natural thing in the world that he should
expect 70 do IL again. He is in the honey
moon Of the nomination nuptials. and must
be allowed the illusions natural TO candi-
peculiar State. When Tidcn carried il the
republicans were divided and the democrats
were united. Now the republicans are
united and the democrats are divided. This
is point well worth considering.
