QUEEN yICToRIA,s SPEECH.

The Queen of Great Britain, in her ex.
cellent speech before Parliament yesterday,
gives hopeful view to the situation In
Europe and believes that the armistice,
which is as yet unexpircd, will result in an
honorable peace. This is looking upon the
bright side Of the picture, indeed, when to-
day both Russia and Turkey are vigorously
at work preparing for a desperate and
bloody campaign in the spring. The Turk
was never intended by the Creator Of man
kind to rule other than an Infidel and
Pagan people. There is something about
the fierce nature and domineering spirit
of the followers OF MAHoMET which the
civilizing influences Of Christian Europe
have been powerless to modify or soften
after centuries of contact with this naughty,
brave, but merciless and blood thirsty race.
This fierce Characteristic of the Turk can
never, under even the most assuring con-
ditions, harmonic with the ideas and SEN
timents Of the Christian people within
ottoman borders in degree that will
bring peace and justice to both. There
is nothing in the Queens speech which
augurs ON abandonment Of Turkey on the
part of Great Britain when the conflict
shall have once begun. On the other hand
there are evidences enough in the address
TO assure the Porte that 80 far As English
interests are dependant upon the preserva-
ton of Ottoman rule in Europe, so far
Great Britain will act in self defense. 1t
Is acknowledged by the leaders in Parlia-
ment that the support Of the Sultan and
the preservation Of Mussulman power
north Of the Bosphorus is absolutely neces
sary for the protection Of England's grasp
on the wealth Of India, and for this reason ii
may be expected that Notwithstanding the
pacific and unconcerned tenor Of the
Queens speech, England when the time
comes for action, will strike for herself and
in defense of her East Indian possessions.

ipgs. Aside from these they also entered
q protest to the Republican elector HUM.
ruREY, of Flor,do, and TO place finishing
touch upon their desperate effortsto defeat
the honest claim of the Republicans to the
Presidency they captured by Instructions
from Gramercy Park an elector in Ore
gop, and with these claims they appear now
before the highest tribun al that ever ex.
listed In this country and demand their
recognition. .,r. r.n
They presented the HUMPHREY protest
yesterday, and exhausted several hours in
endeavoring to prove that he was Ineligible
TO the office Of elector. Everybody kno VS.
how this case will be decided, because the
simple history of it is conclusive evidence
of the eligibility: Of the elector, he hsv-
ing conformed to all the requirements Of
the law, both Of the State aud the Nation.
Thus 1t will be seen that while the Re-
publican party has moved in straight.
forward course towards the White House,
the Democracy have been engaged in
numberless attempts at cutting cross lots
in order to beat their adversary in the race
towards the coveted goal.

THE pECIsIoN MUST BE FINAL

The electoral bill says that nothing In
the entire act shall be held to impair or af-
feet any right existing under the Constitu-
ton and laws in question by proceeding In
the judicial courts of the United States, the
right or title of the person who shall be de-
clared elected, or who shall claim to be
President or Vice President Of the United
States, If any such right exists" Upon
this declaration 1t is just now being as.
serted by the Democratic press that the
decision Of the Tribunal will not be final.
They claim that this language provides
for an appeal TO the United States courts
by either side should there be any dissstis-
faction with the result. They even
60 so far ss to claim that the trainers OF
tho bill purposely constructed this loop
hole through which the disappointed party
might escape and renew the contest This
we believe to be entirely unfounded.
There certainly can be no direct appeal
from the verdict Of the Mixed Tribunal to
the Supreme Court Of the United States.
The decision of the Commission must be
final and conclusive. No existing power
can undo their work, and nothing but the
combined action of the two Houses can
reverse, overturn, or reject It.
Should Mr.. TnLDEN, after the inaugura-
ton of Mr.. HAYES, take steps to contest
the matter still further, he would have no
power to assail the Commission but he
would have to tack the Constitutlonality
Of the act which created that body. This
could be done on writ Of quo varranto
after he had set up claims that his rights
had been abridged or infringed upon by
the workings Of the act. This Is step
which Is not likely to be taken, however,
and the country can rest assured that
when the fifteen men composing the Tri,
bunal decide that this or that vote Is legal
and shall be counted by Congress- aud
when that vote is 80 counted the official
action of Congress in reference to the
election is complete, and can neither be
questioned nor reversed.

FUTURE OF THE SOUTH.

The South under Governor HAYES will
blossom like the rose, provided the planter
who went into the rebellion under the
mistaken presumption that the "cowardly
North" would not dare to fight, and that
one Southerner was a match for q score
of Northern men, pro Vided, we say, that
this element will throw aside his prejudice
against labor, and work, respect the man
dates of the law, and grant freely to all
men life, liberty, and the uninterrupted
pursuit Of legitimate happiness.
Business enterprises are springing up
all over the Southern States, Northern
capital will rapidly flow into their Dor.
ders. Manufacturing establishments, mills,
railroads, and every enterprise that will
build up and develope the resources of the
country will follow, and the South will
witness season of prosperity which she
has never before enjoyed.
But the great secret of this prosperity
must lie in the submission 20 law and the
preservation of human rights and human
liberties. Governor HAYES has already
announced 1t as his great desire TO see the
South prosperous and happy people,
with sectional strife unknown and law and
goodwill reigning within its borders. To
accomplish this end will be one OF the
great objects Of his administration and nc
effort will be spared to bring the South
out OF the slough of dependency into
which she fell through rebellion, and
place her on a footing Of good feeling and

DEMOCRATS TO APPEAL TO THE
COURTS.

1t has been an up hill fight with the De-
mocracy. From the morning of the eighth
OF November last all of the scheming and
trick capacity of the party leaders has been
brought into requisition in desperate
endeavor to grasp, at all hazards, the
shining prize Of National supremacy.
Through their peculiar instruments in
South Carolina they wrestled against the
honest claims of the Republican party until
the Democratic committee which was ap-
pointed to investigate the matter reported
that the HAYES electors were honestly
elected. They then sent their AMBASSADORS
to Louisiana, and through their endeavors
to create public opinion against returning
that State for HAYES, but here again they
most signally failed. With Florida they
tarried longer, and used more desperate
means to override the popular will of the
sovereign people. They succeeded in
forming complications there from which
they expected 10 grow fruit for Mr. TILDEN,
but II has proven fruit meet for repent
ance. They secured three sets Of
returns from this Commonwealth, one
from Governor sTEARNs, one certi-
fed to by the Attorney General
and the supplementary papers for
wsrded by the present Governor DREW
were designed to authenticate the action
OF the Tilden electors aud which also In

Tho Suit OF ex-secretary w. W. Beiknap.
District Attorney II. II. WELLS, 10 the
Criminal Court, yesterday, by direction Of his
superior officer, the Attorney General, and at
the suggestion of the President, entered q mo-
tion for a mol pros. in the case Of ex. Secre-
tsry'w. W. BnLKNAP, which was entertained
by Justice MAcARTHtR and the suit dismissed.
Mr.. WELLS in response to q communication
for the Attorney General, furnished him briefly
and con cisely complete status of the case,
upon which the subsequent action was based.
He did not hesitate to say that the prospect of
the Government making o successful prosecu-
tiOn Of the cause was exceedingly sllm and at
best nothing but dtsagreeink jury
could be hoped for in the termination
Of the trial. While the testimony before
the Court Of Impeachment was Of great
weight on the charge of receiving bribes from
post trader, still it was not sufficiently
positive In Its character as to prove guilty
knowledge on tho part OF the accused, and
therefore, a conviction was not likely to en-
sue. The trial would have proven long,
expensive and laborious, and unsatisfactory in
the close. II the prosecuting officer was con-
scious of the weakness of the case, and salts
fed that the testimony did not warrant him
IN proceeding further,he followed the most SEN
sible course In making statement Of the facts
to his superior officer, and letting him direct
what should be done under the circumstan-
ces. The defendant Is to be congratulated on
a safe deliverance out of the last OF his trou.'
bles, and 1t is to be hoped that heuceforth he
will enjoy quiet, peaceful life in the bosom
of his family and among those frienis who
have tied closer to him In the dark hours of
afliction and suffering which have so long
hung about him, but through which the sun
light Of hope is now breaking.

OWING to the fact that Speaker RANDALL in
sists upon the resolution Of February LIST, the

offered by unanimous consent. How near we
are to grim precipice What II a member

needs is the will. With one fell word he could
deprive the whole House Of the benign bless
ings Of morning prayer. This is too much
