The Democrats in Congress are slow to learn
the lesson of prudence. 1t might have been
supposed that they had by this time recognized
the loss in popularity which is sure to follow
n display on the part of Southern members of
i'll feeling toward the North. But the mistake
of allowing Mr.. Hill of Georgia to display his
well-knOwn sentiments Was again repe ted yes
terday, nor is it clear that MIR. Cox was very
successful in retrieving the position when he
replied to the speech of Mr.. Hoar. The party
leaders will have to take in hand such NAL
contents as Mr.. HILL and check their effusions,
or else disavow their sentiments. Otherwise
the pubic will begin to think that sectional
antipathy at the South still exists and is fa-
yored by Northern Democrats.

There appear to be still good many people who
have no very clear idea Of the nature and object OF
the Centennial Exhibition. Some think that col
lection of relics will be the most prominent feature
and with this view kindly offer to contribute the
chair that Gen. So-andso of the Revolutionary Army
once sat upon or the wig by of the Signers
of the Declaration. Others imagine that the show
is to be collection Of curiOsities and mOnstrosies
somew hat more extensive of course than Barnums 5
old Museum, but much in the same style. One man
writes to the Commission that he has caught a re-
markaby fine eagle, which he will sell for reason
able price; another that he would like to
exhibit big OK in a prominent place in
the main building, and another (he lives
in Tcnnessee) that he has a boy who is
deformed in fearful and wonderful way, and that
he will bring him on if all expenses are paid. 1t
keeps clerk busy. we are told, to decline with
thanks these extraordinary contributions. The To-
cal papers are, to extent, responsible for such
singular misconceptions They are constantly print
ing statements that this, that, the other relic,
novelty oyergrowth, or maformation Is to be sent
10 the Centennial" At the risk of repeating what
eyery intelligent person might be expected By this
time to understand will say that the celebration
is not be curiosity shop, and that it Is intended
to illustrate the best phases and highest existing
development of art. education, science, invention
manufactures, and agriculture, in all the nations Of
the earth

The interest in the revival services at the
Hippodrome is continually increasing. Mr..
Moody himself declares that he has never seen
greater fervor exhibited than in the young

diminished the audiences materially.

1t appears that five years ago Sir David
Lange wrote letters to Earl Granville, then
Foreign Minister, wherein he manifested great
zeal for British interests in the Suez Canal.
These documents indiscreetly made public by
the British Foreign Office, have given deep
offense to NJ dc Lesseps and his co-directors,
who have promptly dismissed Sir David from
the post of British Agent of the Suez Canal
Company. Occurring just now, this incident
will serve to intensity the jealousy between
the British and French in regard to the future
control of the Canal.

Spanish coast guards, it appears, seized an
English vessel on Monday for smuggling, and
deemed her a lawful prize. The British tars,
however overcame their keepers and brought
both them and the ship to Gibraltar, where
smugglers have long found immunity If not
announcement. The exploit which recalls the
daring deeds of the British and Yankee priva-
teers, is likely to cause discontinue at Madrid.
New-York tribune., 1876-03-01

Whatever influence the enthusiasm awakened by
the Centennial year may exert upon the national
habits and character. it appears tolerably cer
tain that people are not to be lifted out of the old
ruts Of politics. All the fine talk in the newspapers
about the desirabty Of Centennial candidate for
the Presidency, who would soar far above the narrow
limits of party and sail into office on a gale of
patriotic huzzas, does not seem to have made the
slightest impression on the public mind In New
HAMPSHIRE where the opening skimish of the
Presidential fight is now in progress, people are
bucklng down TO party work in exactly the old
fashion, and in the conventions recently held out
West there not trace of any new
element born of the great anniversary year.
The mistake made by those who counted upon
" Ccntennalsm' potent influence in the coming
canvass was that they expected it to act too soon.
The average American takes time to reflect before
throwing up his hat. No doubt the Philadelphia
Fair the countless local celebrations, and the
Fourthof-July oratory will by midsummer work
the country up into fever of patriotism, but by
that time the Presdent-makcrs will have done their
work The party tickets will be in the field the
party organizations will be perfected. and all that
remains will be for people to fall into line on
side or the other. new movement will not be pos
sble unless both National Conventions make the
most egregous and suicidal blunders.
New-York tribune., 1876-03-01

A complete and radical change in the man
aeement of canal affairs is likely TO result from
last years exposures of fraud. The Joint Leg
islatiye Committee Of Investigation will recon-
mend, among other Improvements, the substi-
tuition of a Court of Claims composed of sala-
ried judges, in place of the Board of Canal
Appraisers. This measure will greatly reduce
the expense of litigating canal claims, while
reducing largely their number and amounts
Additional safeguards in contracts and appoint
nents Will also be suggested, and the Com
mittes fayors the constitutional amendment

The opinions of members of the Advisory
Council, expressed since their return to their
homes, are even more favorable to Plymouth
Church and its pastor than were the official
utterances. The worthlessness of Mr.. Bowen's
disclosures impressed itself on the delegates,
and the attempt to lock the doors when his
testimony ended is shown to have been at
most trivial affair, possibly intended as a
sort of practical joke.

which is to place the whole canal business
under one responsible head.

The continued cross-examination o. GOV
Tilden yesterday in the Tweed suit gave hiIi
further opportunities for explaining details o.
the division of plunder among the hine
thieves. The defense endeavOred as un
successfully as before to make it appear that
there had been at one time some animation
between Mr. Tilden and Tweed. The case OF
the plaintiff is now closed. and it is moi
believed that the defense has much testimony
TO otter.
The railway company which is constructing
a tunnel through Mount st. GOthard has just
concluded that the enterprise is of universal
importance" and therefore ought to receive
subsidies from Great Britain and Belgium
This wish is not likely to be gratified, neither
of those countries being directly interested u
the enterprise. The company might better
RELY mainly on Germany for capital, since the
tunnel will afford her direct communication
with Switzerland and Italy.
For one who has caused much needless misery
and bloodshed, Don Carlos is faring better
than he deserves. The Prefect at Pau tolc
him that his presence was undesirable, bu
made amends for this inhOspitality by placing
a special train at his disposal to convey hin
to the north of France, or the Spanish from
tier-thc latter being the place of all others h'
wishes to avoid. 1t is probable the fugitive
prince will judge that both France and SPAN
are tired of him and that he might bette
settle in England, where, at all events, he cal
do least harm.

The Cutoff at Vlcksburg.
The Vicksburg Herald of MAY ) SAYS:

Inc NlckSOurg HeT0tQ OF May . says:
The change in the channel of the river at
this point continues to engage the attention
of the community, particularly as the PENN
sula is caving steadily in the direction of
Delta, and the current coming over to the
Mississippi shore with cataract velocity in
the neighborhood of Ryan's mill. A Herald
reporter went down to this point yesterday
morning, and found q number CT negroes,
living near the bank, moving their shanties
back out of danger, while others stood with
wonder and amazement, looking at the
earth gradually giving way. When the cut
off was first made the water came over
with such force, near the mill, as to
cause much apprehension for the safety
Of property in that immediate vicinity, and
the caving progressed with such rapidity
that on Saturday Mr.. Ryan determined to
move his mill beyond the reach of danger.
Yestesday we were informed by our young
friend, Dennis Feeney, clerk at the mill,
that owing to the increased width in the
cut OFF channel, the main current n w strikes
some distance below the mill, thus render
ing o change of location unnecessary, and
relieving the apprehenions of others in the
bottom as to the safety of their property.
The point fronting the mill is made up of
cypress bark, almost from low water mark,
and could stand any pressure brought
against it, but it is the opinion Of those who
have an interest IN watching the new cur
rent, that in less than twenty -four hours the
caving of the peninsula will have swept away
the lone willow which is the present Gland
mark and then the force OF the current
will strike the Mississippi side some dis
lance below the mill. Mr.. Ryan has ceased
lumber hauling to the hill side, and was
putting his saws in order as we passed for
the "hum" which will be resumed to-day.
The caving was principally in front of the
truck gardens above the fair grounds, and
potatoes and peas yielded to the surging
current at several places. One gardener
told US he had already lost twenty feet of
front, with increased caving yesterday 1t
is plain the fair grounds will soon be in
danger, but speculations touching the final
course of the river would be premature
now. 1t will not ''straighten itself" before
the water goes down, though much of the
low land will be swept awsy by the river in
the meantime.
