THE EASTERN QUESTION is gradually shap-
ing itself in the direction of peace. Servia
has shown little courage or skill in battle
and one by one her strongholds are falling
into the hands of the Turks If this bad
fortune continues-the result, it is hinted
icc-the Mussulman will soon be under
the walls of Belgrade. Then Intervention
and war or mediation and peace are in
evitable. Turkey, it seems, is prepared for
tins contingency, and, acting under the in
spiration of England, will offer terms which
cannot we'll be rejected in face of the alter
native of general war.

Mr.. Blaine Denounces mr.. Tndea.

Mr.. Blaine made his first appearance in
public since leaving Washington the other
day before Maine republican convention,
and made speech denouncing Mr.. Tilden
and the democratic party.
1t was once and is stiTl, probably, MI.
Blaines laudable ambition to be thought o
statesman. We advise him to consider for
a moment whether it is the part Of states
man to stir up strife suspicion and hatred
in this country at present? We should
like to reckon Mr.. Blaine among American
statesmen He is versatile, brilliant, en-
ergetic, able man. A good many people be.
lieve him to be only demagogue. We
should like to think better of him. but If he
goes on "denouncing' his political OPP
ponents, instead of arguing with them,
We shall presently have to give him up too.
The true part of statesman now is to cast
oil upon our troubled political waters
to show the people the way to
a peaceful and good-natured settlement
of our difficulties and to renewed
prosperity We advise Mr. Blaine to try
his hand at this. No public man in this
country, no matter how brilliant or strong,
has ever got further than the United States
Senate by 'denouncing" people, and Mr..
Blaine is now in the Senate. 1t is good
time for him to turn over new leaf

THE SURRENDER TO THE INDIAN RISG.-The
committee of conference have defeated the
resolution of the House transferring the
Indian tribes from the Interior TO the War
Department. We hardly expected the meas
ure to pass. for the Indian Ring is too
strong to surrender its power. In Canada
the Indians are kept ut peace and the cost
is a hundred times less than with u.s. Our
plan shows the effect of the Indian policy as
controlled by the Indian Department Any
change will be change for the better. We
think that the chiefs of the army are the
persons to take charge of the Indians. They
must fight them, and they know how to do
them justice and secure them peace Moth
ing this Congress has done disappoints us so
much rs the failure to reform this deplora-
ble-Indian business, which has cost us so
much blood and treasure and imposes IN
indeliblc stain upon the country's honor.

THE YACHT RAcE-Yesterday. favored
with n spanking breeze and clear, bright
day, the Madeleine and the Countess of Duff
ferin sailed their long expected race for the
Queens Cup, won by the celebrated yacht
America in 1851. The interest which attached
to this international contest was simply
immense, as the gathering in the Bay yes
terday testifies. The race itself was admira-
bly, conducted throughout, the handling of
both yachts being highly credi.able to the
seamanship of their respective captains and
crews; but if comparison must be made.
the Madeleine had decidedly the adj
vantage in this respect. The victory.
as will be seen by our full report pub
lished elsewhere, rests with our own
Yacht, the Canadian, although q remark
ably fast boat not being fast enough for the
araceful Madeleine. The race to-day Will
probably settle the ownership of the Queens
Cup, so far as this contest for it is concerned,
as it is not at all likely that the Madeleine
will allow her rival to lead the way to the
stakeboat after yesterdays triumph.

We print this morning the last of the
series of letters which we recently received
from Mr.. Henry NJ. Stanley. Accompany
ing this letter we publish map which
shows at glance the salient features Of Mr..
SANKEY'S explorations and discoveries, but
it is more interesting even on account Of
what it fails to show than from what
it shows. On every hand our brave and
determined explorer meets with obstacles
which for the time delay his work. but he
has great hopes that he will yet be able to
complete his explorations If one course is
not open to him it is his purpose to seek
another, and complete success must crown
his efforts at last. Already he has given us
much valuable information. He has thor
oughly explored the victoriae Niyanza, and
we now have something like correct map
of that large body of water. The people liv-
ing on it's shores are almost as we'll known
to the readers of the HERALD as the different
tribes of the Sioux Indians, while King
Mtesa is as much more famous than Sitting
Bull was few months ago as the African is
the superior Of the Indian. Mr.. Stanley has
traversed the divide between the Victoria
and the Albert, and he hopes to do for the
latter service similar to that which he has
already done for the former. 1t will take
time as we'll as courage and skill to complete
this work, but the words of promise with
which Mr. Stanley concludes his last letter
are sufficient proof of his determination to
persevere until his mission is finished
The Democracy and the GovernOrskip.
The republicans seem resolved upon the
nomination of Mr.. Cornell. Mr.. Halstead
writes to his newspaper that the Tilden
people are voting for him at the republican
primaries. This is too grotesque state
ment to be believed. If Mr. Cornell is
named it will be an honor to gentleman
who has always been true to his party. who
has been at the head of its discipline and
whose personal character and fitness are
conceded. So far as the party alone is con-
cerned Mr.. Cornell will answer every cen
dtion but if the managers hope to win
any votes outside Of the party the man above
all others to name is Mr.. Evarts. 1t is no
disparagement to Mr.. Cornell, for whom we
have the utmost respect, and whose abilities
and services we concede, to say that wise
counsels in the republican party would die
tate the nomination of national man, of
candidate whom the democrats would find
it hard to beat The policy which dictates
the nomination of Mr.. Evarts on the repub-
lican side should compel the democrats to
nominate Mr.. Marble for Governor and Mr..
Dorshemer for Lieutenant Governor Mr.
Marble represents the best elements in the
democratic party. He above oil men is the
friend of reform and hard money. To him
we owe the ST Louis platform and to Mr.
Dorsheimer we owe the salvation of that
platform in the Convention. They are the
men to lead the democracy in this great
campaign.

Extremely Loyal.

MURTAGH the central figure in the

can party, and chief fugleman among

haters on the Continent, and GRANTS

too. Just what We expected. SAVAGE
bribed him with $4,000 to use his in
fuence to collect SAvAGE'S claim.
WALLACE paid him commission of
$4,000 to procure the contract for fur
nishing timber to the Navy depart
ment. These little items have been
proven up and fixed on him and the
Committee are on the track of still
darker crimes. 1t you want to find a
scoundrel of the deepest dye, get one
of these fellows who holds up the
bloody shirt, and never quits cursing
Confederates, and whining over the
poor negro. Such scamps would walk
off with hot stove. They only make
this howl about rebels, to turn the at
tention away from their own rascali.

would, had 1t succeeded, have retard-
ed the improvement and checked the
development of the whole country,
dared tooppose the wave of fanaticism
set in motion by place hunters and
supported by political demagogues,
survive honest men from the discharge
of their duty. In truth the defeat
of that infamous bill was victory for
the people and blessing for the eoun-
try. It's passage was opposed by near
ly every untrammeled unsubsidized
newspaper Of respectability in the
State. 1t was opposed by the farmer,
the merchant, the laboring man, the
manufacturer and the masses general
ly. It's defeat was a victory for all
because its success would have work
ed serious injury to all. If it is con-
ceded that the peoples money materi-
ally assisted in building the railroads
of the State, surely they do not desire
to deprive themselves of every chance
for return from this money by the
passage of bill that will render these
roads worse than useless. The Patriot
holds that they do, and rails at the
Senate for omitting to carry out its
progra mme. We shall not deny that
the Patriot expresses its own and Mr..
ARCHER's sentiments but that it ever
indicates those of the people of Cali
fornia or of any considerable portion
thereof we do most emphatically
deny. If STANFORD has won victo-
ry he has won it for rhe whole State.

"Let no Guilty Man Escape"

There Is species of homely elo-
quence and deal of honest patriot
ism embodied in the expression of
President GRANT "Let no gnilty man
escape" but the man who stubbornly
resolved to flight it out on this line
if it takes all Summer seems to have
forgotten that civil G government is not
unlike military success in the fact that
one requires something more than
mere words and the other more than
eloquent pronuciamentos. "Let no
guilty man escape" sounds well, but
the assurance that no guilty man
shall escape which grows out of
prompt and decisive steps for bringing
the thieves and robbers that now in
fest the government to the punish
ment they so richly merit, would be
vastly more comforting to the people.
For his own credit and for the sake of
the people it is to be regretted that the
President has not given this assur-
ance. Thus far the command, "Let
no guilty man escape" has been fol-
lowed by mode of procedure that
may be best characterized as an emf
nently successful effort at chow not to
do it.n We are afraid there is too
much ground on which to base the
impression growing stronger day by
day among the people, that when the
President said "Let no guilty man es-
cape" he meant "Let no conviction
follow.n If such was not his meaning
his instructions have been misunder-
stood by those to whom has been in
trusted the work of bringing the often
ders to trial. There is great deal of
smoke but the fire remains hidden.
The officers are crying "stop thief'
with an earnestness that gives assur-
ance of the existence of an army of
thieves, but the insufficient number
of the light fingered gentry actually
caught seems as though the failure to
catch is intended to imply that there
is nothing to catch. This is, to use a
slang term, "too thin" The people
believe that if no guilty man escapes
the government prisons will be crowd

The bills concerning the text
book question and those in reference
to other educational matters were
considered as the special order for the
hour.
Tuttle's bill prescribing the manner
of furnishing text books for the public
schools by having the State own the
copyright of the text books to be used
was first taken up. After a warm
contest the bill was indefinitely post
poned.
Hopkins bill allowing county
Boards of Examination and city
Boards of Education to furnish text
books for their respective districts
was then taken up, and on a call of
the ayes and noes the bill was passed.
Tinnen, bitter opponent of the bill,
offered an amendment to the title of
the bill as follows: "An act to suuan-
der the public moneys of the State.n
The entire afternoon was passed in
this Improbable battle of the books.
The general file, containing upwards
of 200 bills was untouched, and if not
taken up before the end of the present
week, the chances Of many useful and
worthy measures becoming laws are
decreased beyond any hope of inn
provment. 1t is to be regretted that so
much valuable time has been wasted
in desultory and comparatively unim-
p0rtant measures.
The Assembly messenger on coming
into the Senate was notified that the
Assembly had refused to recede from
