1t will be remembered that some three

which all the States of Europe were repre-

to confer an international sanction upon
some new rules fixing the rights and duties

ST. Petersburg. OF course Russia cannot be

the present contest for she was careful TO
base her suggestions upon broad grounds Of
equity. According 70 her envoy, Baron JONI
NJ, the time had come to limit, in the interest
OF humanity, the duration OF wars-to check
the ill-rcgulated ardOrs Of patriotism, which
might render its defenders no less fatal 10 "a
country than its a-suiants. Undoubtedly,
the shorter war, the less bloody and de-
structiyc; and the area OF damage might bc
-insularly abridged If after one defeat the
weaker party would renounce al means Of
protHctcd resistance. But, for obvious
reasons, the smaller States were unwilling
to accept this plausible proposition. Their
-cruplrs moreover, were shared by England,
who. through the mouth Of Lord DERRY, re-

He hoped that the very best men Of the party
would be chosen from all sections Of the State
To- the Convention. and whatever their delibera-
tons might be-, he would be satisfied Still, rs
he had said he had decided opinions as TO the
true policy to be pursued. The present State
officers were elected on the platform OF reform
the prevention OF fraud in the canas. and in
opposition to theving Rings. They had done
their duty faithfully and worked steadily to
carry out the purposes for which they were
elected. and TO now set them aside for other and
untried men would. in his opinion. BE- bad pol
icy. and unjust to faithful officers. He did not
believe in lowering the standard Of reform up

that the reelection OF those who had done their
duty SO faithfully would be for the best good OF
all. This was his decided opinion. and he was
willing that all should know II. He had no

nv. Cornell Standing on solid Ground,

The Hon. A. Il. CORNELL, Naval Officer of
this port, refuses to pay any attention to
the recent executive order commanding the
holders of Office under the national Admin
istration to take no active part In politics.
He has not offered to resign his place in the
Custom House establishment, and only u
few days since the call for our Republican
State Convention made its appearance bear
ing his wcllkuown signature.
1t has long been known that Mr.. CORNELL
would taka this course and it has been sup
posed that the Fraudulent President would
decm it more prudent to ignore such an act
Of rebellion, and to let the Naval Officer
quietly have his own way. But now that
senator CONkLING has come home
making no secret of his own hostility
To this executive order, IL Is expected
that Mr.. HAYES will do something decisive.
cit is universally admitted says II
writer in the Times. that Mr.. CORNELL, in
acting with the Republican Executive Com
mittce, has Intentionally dciled the prcsi-
dent; and from the determination expressed
by the President Immediately following the
issuance Of the civil service reform circular,
no doubt is entertained that Mr.. CORNELL
will Ice requested to resign his Custom
House position, and refusing to do So will
be removed"
1t happens. however, that Mr. CoRNrLL
cannot bc removed by Mr.. HAYES. lie may
be suspended from Office, and another per
son may be- appointed to perform his func-
tions for the time being but as soon as Con-
gress meets the Fraudulent President will
have to submit the question TO the Senate
and II that body does not consent to the
removal, Mr. CORNELL will thereby be-
come rcinstatcd. Such is tho effect
was passed during the Republican quar-
rel with ANDREW JOHNSON, and has not
lccn repealed This act makes it posi-
Bile for the Senate to keep a man in office
against the will Of the Executive. In the
present instance, however. it " i'll also enable
the Senate to express a deliberate and
probably II final opinion upon the so-callcd
civil service rule which Mr.. HAYES has
promulgated.
What that opinion may be, ought not to be
doubtful There * no clause of the Consti-
tuition and no law of Congress which justlics
or allows this rule. No President, not even
one who has been elected, has any power to
issue such "A decree. Ii is the duty of every
American citizen to take part in political
affairs, and every one has right 50 to do
which cannot be taken away from him. This
right Mr. CORNELL is asserting. Thanks
are due him for the manly position he has
taken, and We see no reason to doubt that l4e
viii be triumphantly sustained.
