friend, Germany. Whatever may be the
amicable feeling existing between the two
Emperors, there can DE no doubt that it is
not shared in by the people, or even by the
chief political leaders of the two nations.
Prince BISMARCK may send diplomatic
notes demonstrating against Turkish atroc-
tiles to the Porte, while he refuses TO listen
to the representations of the Turkish Min
lister at Berlin concerning Russian atroci-
ties but these exhibitions of friendly feeling
toward Russia do not assist her military
operations. Russia maintains that Germany
owes her Il debt of gratitude for the bcncvo-
lent neutrality she manifested during the
Franco-Gcrman war; and she demands pay
mcnt; and the payment is being offered in
the same description of unsubstantial SER
vice which she rendered to Germany on that
occasion.
The protest of BISMARCK against Turk
sh barbarity only has the effect of
bringing out in stronger relief the unciVil-
lied character of this holy war on both
sides and the conduct Of Russia In recruit
ing from among the Bulgarian pcasantry OF
the invaded country and forming Bulgarian
lcgiuns, is not only against any principle Of
but is most inhuman rs regards the Bulga-
rians themselves for We hear that
out of 5000 Bulgarians who COM
posed this legion under Gen. GoURKHA,
only 1.iOO escaped, he having abandoned
them at Eski-Sagra to the tender mercics Of
the Turks. In no country would the native
Inhabitants who enrolled themselves rs sol
dicrs in an invading army be allowed any
quarter. The Germans in the Franco-Ger-
man war used to shoot ruthlessly every man
found with Il gun. who was not in uniform,
the moment he WAS captured, even though
he was Frcnchman fighting for his coun-
try. These Bulgarian lcvies are Insurgents,
with no military standing Of any kind,
fighting against their own country, their
rdisoA deht being that they desire u war of
revenge on their fellow citizens and while
We have evidence that in their character Of
"avcngcrs" they are repeating the atroci-
ties on Mussulmans Of which they had them
selves been the victims, it is in the last de-
gree unbccoming in the German Govern
mcnt to sustain the Russian methods of
barbarty in IA war ostcnsibly undertaken in
the interests of humanity. In fact, there Is
an irony in the sympathy expressed 10y the
German Government for Russia. which. IL
We were Russian, would lead Us strongly TO
mstruSt it. People who really sympathizc.
really help; they do not cOnfnc themselves
10 fine phrases. or 10 acts which draw attcn-
tion to episodes which had better not be dis
GUESSED. So far as atrocities are concerned
people have pretty well made up their minds
that there j. not much to choose between
the irregular troops of either army, and the
less Prince BISMARCK, or any one elsc
forces u to make comparisons, the better
will be it for both.

Punish the First and There will be No
second.

The Democrats Of Pennsylvania did well
to put in the first and most prominent place
In their platform that plank which dcnounccs
the Electoral Fraud. There Is no other sub
jcct of equal consequence now before the
country.
The Pennsylvania Democrats say that
"the induction of RUrHERFoRD Il. HAYES
into the Office Of President, notwithstanding
the election OF SAMUEL j. TILDEN thereto,
was n high crime against free government
This is true. They might even have said
that it was the highest possible crime against
free government
The Pennsylvania Democrats add that
this high crime has not been cOndoncd and
will not bc forgotten, and that any second
attempt of the kind will be- resisted and
punished. This also has truth in 1t. But
they might better have said that the first
attempt the successful attempt must first
be punished.
II is not enough to remember and to de-
nouncc the Electoral Fraud. The thieves
who stole the Presidency and the man who
received it from their hands must he fol-
lowed up increasingly until Il perfect punish
mcnt Is dealt out To them all. That is tho
only certain way to prevent u repetition oi
their crime.
II is out Of place to talk about resisting
and Furnishing second attempt while the
authors of the first attempt are still Hour
fishing and cxulting before the eyes Of men.

To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-SW: Tho

under the recent compromise with Shore In
spector Ferguson. The scows are now to drift
with the cbb tide down the buy to the Narrows
where they are TO remain at anchor until high
water and then they are to be lowed out and
dumped on the first of the cbb. This method

out to sea. The whole thing is absurd. Even
il the plan be carried out to the letter-and il
will not tor. once past the Narrows. the parties
in charge Of lows will dump when and where
they choose, as experience has shOwn-it must
be remembered that the greater portion Of the
garbage will sink. and that IL Will take perhaps
4 hundred tides to sweep away even one s.'ow

The Financial Question.

Our correspondent on the subject Of re-
sumption, Co whom we replied at length
some days ago comes back upon us with a
long communication, in which he does moth
ing more than object in detail to our views
and rcitcratc his two main propositions,
namely: That the country cannot resume
specie payments SO long as / is in
debt abroad and that it cannot maintain
them unless we export more than we inn
port; in other words, unless the balance Of
trade is kept in our favor.
We have previously shown wherein the
first position is iallacious. and have given n
simple and ready reiutaton of the latter as
illustrated in the ease Of Canada.
While the subject is susceptible of va
ricd treatment in respect to both these
points we yet see no object to be gained by
a protactcd discussion of them. In daily
journal we must necessarily Toe brief, and in
dulgc IA little as possible in useless repeti-
tions.
Having expressed our views and given
place to those N our correspondent, we shall
only add that the essential question in issue
Is whether we are a solvent or an insolvent
nation. We contend that we are not nation
OF banlirupts. but can pay our debts; and
we advocate the prompt doing of il. To say
that it is an utter impossibility to do it
without running the country. is to make II
mountain out of mole hill. 1t is to ignore
our vast national resources, unequalled
anywhere else in the world. 1t is to DO
blind TO our capacity TO both feed
and clothe the world. 1t is to disrc-
gard our immense mineral production. in-
Guiding gold and silver enough to maintain
and increase the coin circulation of the en-
tire globe. 1t Is to exhibit impotence TO
conceive of the yet unmeasurcd development
Of our resources and incapacity to deal with
the great problems of our time.
