A Significant once.

We learn with surprise that the advance
of Anglo-Saxon civilization in India de-
mands the appointment of government off,
cials whose duties become important only
when the population is stepped in the deep
est misery Among the items of news from
famine-stricken Madras we find statement
that ''Sir Richard Temple went straight
from Delhi to the Deccan, taking with him
MS secretary Mr.. Bernard, who was famine
secretary in Bengal three years ngc." The
Office of famine secretary" to I'M Indian
Presidency has, then, become one of the very
important features of the Indian civil SER
vice, ranking in fact, quite high In the list
of government rewards. When we consider
that the poor Hindoo has been rescued from
the barbarism that surrounded him In the
days when the cruel oppressors of his own
race allowed him tho privilege Of getting
enough to eat, and even furnished
him with canals and aquoducts for the
irrigation Of his fields during the dry sea-
sons. we arc lost in amazement at his in
gratitude in not appreciating as he ought
the transcendent blessings that ore en-
bodied in the person of a British famine
secretary" II the iron Of discomfort can
cSser his soul through tho void created in
his stomach there remains to him one
crownjng relief for his pangs-the knowl-
edge that the government has appointed
another famine secretary. The gentlemen
who are called on to fill this significant
Office are always chosen on account OF their
experience in dealing with Indian famines.
Unfortunately for the Hindoos the num-
Der of competent candidates is rapidly
increasing, and as it always happens
The New York herald., 1877-02-08

that the government finds work for
such qualified persons it may be ne
cessary after a while to organize famines
in order to secur, employment for this large
and deserving class. To accomplish this
with success it is only necessary to neglect
the useful works for those that are necessary
to the military supremacy of the "kd'ssr-t-
Hind" The extortion of additional taxes
win also work we'll, especially when the
revenues are devoted to the building Of
iron-clads in Europe or the support OF an
army of younger sons and poor relations
generally in India.

England,s Course mt Constan tinople.
reports made few weeks ago that were not
creditable to English diplomacy. There is
apparently open war, or nearly that. be-
tween the Marquis of Salisbury on one side
and the Premier, Lord Derby, and the
British Ambassador at Constantinople,
Sir Henry Elliot, on the other side.
At the time when Turkey rejected alb
solutely all the propositions made by
Europe, and when Lord Salisbury meta
phorically washed the hands of England over
her ancient ally and gave that ally up to
her fate, the aforesaid ally did not seem to
be troubled at this proceeding, had no
qualms of conscience, and "didn't scare
worth cent" 1t was then observed by
some of the old stagers at the
Conference that some Power was Sc
cretly encouraging Turkey to resist
Europe and reject the propositions. 1t was
thought this might be Austria, in whose
diplomacy Metternich had established this
sort of tactics as traditionally legitimate
means of circumventing an enemy. 1t was
also thought it might be Bismarck, for
sooner or later the Prussian Premier is
accused Of every piece of trickery
for which no other author can be
found. There were not wanting
persons to hint that even the astute Ignatieff
himself was deep enough to tempt the Turks
by underhand encouragement into sepa-
rating themselves from Europe by rejecting
its advice. Nobody accused straight
forward John Bull of such piece of duplic-
ity--at least none Of the diplomats. But an
English newspaper had less respect for him,
and openly maintained that Sir Henry Ell
liot, under secret instructions from Downing
street, encouraged the resistance of Midhat
Pacha, and that at the very moment that
England was dramatically declaring herself
no longer responsible for the malignant
Turk the same England was encouraging
the same old Turk to defy everybody and
rely on London for support to any extent.
It turns out that this was substantially
true. All the facts will probably
como out within few days in
Parliament, and they cannot but make
a scandal throughout Europe Doubtless
this attitude of England is the real explana-
ton of the course of Russia, which was
aware of England's real position and un-
derstood that the Premier's speech at the
Mansion House in November last was
nearer indication of England's attitude than
Lord Salisburys declarations.

Perhaps this lesson may be lost on the peo-
pie OF those States that have not the power
to install the authorities they have chosen
is supported by United States judges ap-
pointed for the purpose or United States
troops in the State House.
Although the full effect and operation of
the order of the tribunal is not yet apparent,
and must be derived from the action it is
yet to take on the documents before it, the
fact that it limits its inquiry to the record
made by State authorities, or alleged State
authorities, is significant, at lenst, of such
recognition as we describe of the supreme
Importance in the case of the acts Of
these authorities; and if it pursues that
idea as the principle governing the case its
further inquiry will merely be, not for what
might be equitably called the justice of the
case, but into the formalities of the several
certificates It will simply determine which
is legally the act of the authorized State
officers. But this recognition Of the invio-
liability of the State record will evidently
cut both ways. 1t will give great prom
inence to that piece of sharp practice in
Oregon for which no section of the people
has hitherto had any respect If known
defiance of the popular will is of no conse-
quence and the Governors certificate is of
all consequence, and if the only point that
gives to Congress IN original right to
inquiry is the doubt Of an electors
eligibility under the constitution, the
course of the Governor of Oregon
cannot be reviewed by the commission.
For, as there is no disputed authority in
Oregon-and it is, under the State law, the
Governors duty to certify--the republican
elector who, it is alleged, is disqualified,
cannot even get his case before the commits
sion for want of the Governors certificate,
and the appointed elector cannot, because
he possesses that certificate, be ignored. 1t
does not seem possible under this ruling
for the excluded man to- show that he is not
disqualified.

THE WEArnER.--The lake depression has
moved into Nova Scotia, inducing brisk winds
over the lower lakes and Middle and Eastern
States during its progress. The attendant area
of precipitation limited to the Southern lake
shores and the st. Lawrence Valley. In no case
was the rainfall remarkable. In the Gulf n de-
PRECISION moved eastward over the South Atlantic
and Eastern Gulf States, causing high

for during tonight tomorrow morning. The
pressure is high in the northwest, north and over
the AIlcglanics, with slight changes OF temper
aturc in the regions named. A general
clouncss prevails throughout the country,

was napplly IHuue ny MI rIVartS III INC ar
cument that the examination as to what was
the Governors certificate did not go behind
the certificate but before it, and was simply
aimed to explode the claims of pretended
certificates.
An obvious inference from this conse-
uuence of the decision is that the supremely
important fact in any Presidential count is
the regularly certified return of the electoral
vote of State. In it's brondest application
this allows the fullest force to the view of
the constitution that the choice Of electors
is function of the States one of
which the Legislature of the States
and no other power has control |;
function which is an attribute Of
the States as sovereignties, and into the ex-
animation of which, therefore, Congress
cannot go except to be sure OF what the
State has done. For general and for specific
reasons the supporters of Mr. Tilden cannot
object to this; but its applications go beyond
the case of any particular candidate. II,
for instance, the action Of the recognized
State authorities must be accepted
lIoAh iLouiSiiLa III litCe VI tuc bnuIle-
ful revelations recently made; if the
vote that was huckstered about the
country in search of purchaser
must be counted for Mr.. Hayes with the
best possible reasons before the country for
believing that Mr.. Hayes did not carry that
State, it will be recognized as an unfortu-
nate condition of the law which results in
a defiance Of the will of the people as ex-
pressed at the polls. Although such
a Judgment seems q direct proffer
of premium to future frauds,
it must ut least arouse the people
to the necessity of surrounding this func-
ton of the State authorities with such ef-
fective guarantees that scoundrcls in Office
| will not have it in their power thus to
tsmper with the very life of the nation.
