The country is rudely, but not unex-
pectedly startled from dream of peace,
induced by the compromise bill reported
last week, by Morton's speech in or
position to the plan which promises the
release Of business from the paralysis of
fear that has held it for three months,
1t is not too much to say that every
material and precious interest in this
country already felt the warm influence
Of the tact that Thurman and Conkling,
Bayard and Frelinghuysen, Hewitt and
McCrary had cast aside party for pat
riotism and met upon a common plan and
platform.
Can it be possible that at the dictation
of Morton, or any extremist of any party,
the spell is to be broken and the country
rudely kicked back to the foot of the Hill
of Difficulty up which it was just climbing
under the aspiration of hope!-Ioeoa CITY

The people are being heard from in ia.
vor of the electoral compromise. The
boards of trade and mercantile organiza-
tons all over the union are imploring its
passage.
On the other hand the revolutionists
and disturbers of political peace are pre-
senting their cause by the mouth ofMorton,
while the selfish politicians to-day assert
themselves in the action of the Union
League club of New York.
Let the popular voice be raised higher
than the piping of brawlers.
Republicans want peace and chance
for business to revive; Democrats want
peace, a restoration of that confidence
which is the vital force of trade.

Others, to make one of the force TO guard
the prisoners. 1t is well known that un.
der such circumstances a foreigner Is
just as liable as citizen to be called
upon by the sheriff to assist in ming
the preservation OF the peace, and Me-
Clelland made no exception to this inter.
national obligation. Since the massacre,
however, the attention OF the British
government has been called to the tact
that one OF It's subjects has lost his lie In
an unjustitiable manner.
SO far the testimony adiuceds not clear
upon the point whether McClelland fell
in resisting the assault OF the mob upon
the Jail or wa, subsequently, slaio In cold
blood when overwhelmed by the mob
He had started TO 90 away from the Jail
and had mingled with the crowd outside
In the first case his death, while mat.
ter of regret, would not have been the
subject OF governmental interference. He
would have died In the discharge of a
duty which the resident of any civilized
county is liable to be called upon to per-
torm-namely, that of aiding the sheriff
or other officer of the law in the preser.
walton OF the public peace. But il
the taking of is an act of assassination
the British government, which spent a
hundred millions OF dollars to rescue a
couple of English prisoners in the hands
OF the Abyssinian king, Theodorus, will
naturally want an explanation and some
sort of satisfaction. 1t was of course ne.
cessary to prove that McClelland was a
British subject, and this fact has been
pretty clearly established by the British
consul at New Orleans, who made the in
Quiry into the case. As already said,
there is discrepancy in the testimony as
to whether his death was in the regular
course OF the discharge of a public duty
or the result of lawless act on the part
Of one or more people constituting
part OF a responsible community.
But enough is known to
warrant the British government in ask
ing of the United States that a proper
investigation shall be made into the cir
cumstances attending McClelland's
death, and an official request to that eff
feet has been made to Mr.. Eyarts, to
which he had within a few days returned
answer that due inquiry will be made.
The question now arises, can the ted
eral government coerco the government
of the state of Mississippi to make the
investigation, and, if not, and if Great
Britain should discover that McClelland
had been assassinated and insist upon
redress, what would be the alternative
of the United States? 1t is altogether
unlikely, OF course, that anything seri-
Gus will ever come of the matter, but the
complication as it stands is great sub
ject for the law schools TO debate.

inquiriDg as to the accuracy of certain
reports Of his sermons, he said that he

giving vent to too much veXation of
spirit.
The following story is told by a Hart.
ford clergyman: On his way home
from church he found himself behind
three ladies engaged in a lively discus.
sion over the music OF the service, one
condemning the soprano and another
the tenor, while the third stOutly defend.
ed both. As the discussion became
warm, the third lady sought to throw oil
on the troubled waters and in the words
of the clergyman, "did so to perfection
by a judicious and truthful remark, 10
which all OF them assented /; she simply
said, Well it was miserable sermon,
