VICTOR EMANUEL md CARDINAL NAN.


NINus
Considerable interest has been excited in
England by the course taken by Cardinal
Manning in reference to the solemn mass for
Victor Emanuel, which it was proposed to
celebrate in the Italian Church in London
The Cardinal being in Rome, dispatch was
sent to him, asking him to authorize officially
the proposed ceremonial The Cardinal Arch
bishop returned direct refusal, but added
that - a low mass might be said without the
customary musical Accomplishments" 1t
should be remembered that between high
and low mass there is no difference from
religious point of view, and thus the prohibi-
ton of the "musical Accomplishments could
have no other meaning than one of disre
spect to the dead King. The course of the
Cardinal gave great dissatisfaction; and the
Italian Embassy thought it worth while to
make formal statement of the facts in The
Times In consequence OF the interdict
of the Cardinal, the ceremony, which was
to be held on the 18th January, was given
up and those who had contributed to the
fund for the occasion were invited to take
back their offerings. But telegram was re-
ceived from the Cardinal on the 18th, giving
permission "to celebrate a Requiem Mass for
"the late King, provided the ecclesiastical
ceremony had not the character of political
demonstrations" The Italian Ambassador
considered this as prohibiting the presence at
the ceremony of the Embassy and Diplomatic
Body, and as another disrespect to their late
King This is thought to be more remarkable
as the Pope had really sent his blessing to the
dying monarch. Moreover, there had been
solemn masses for Victor Emanuel celebrated
without question in Liverpool. 1t was only
within Cardinal Manning's jurisdiction shat
ecclesiastical sanction had been refused
The general tone of comment is that for
some reason Cardinal Manning has seen fit to
ally himself with the party ut Rome which
desires the restoration of the temporal power
of the Papacy. 1t IS never for moment sup
posed that he did not have excellent reasons
for the course which he pursued. 1t is init
mated that he may himself have an eye upon
the papal chair; and there is gossip that he
is endeav0ring to secure the removal of the
conclave to Malta, in order to diminish
the proportion of Italian votes He has never
before shown himself to be careless of the
good opinion of the English people. All this
may be mere conjecture; but it is curious to
find history repeating itself, and so much of
management and intrigue. if we may say So
still suspected in the election of the Supreme
POntif.

TIE EUROPEAN SITUITION.

The sick man of Europe appears to have
changed doctors. 1t is his opinion that the
British DOCTOR instead of curing his disease,
very greatly aggravated it 10y bad treatment,
and especially by false representations and
promises which were never kept, the design
and effect of which were to plunge Turkey in
to war with Russia, and proIong its resist
ance The old saying that we like q man best
after having fought with him finds curious
illustration in the course which Turkey has
probably chosen, if Server Pasha and other
high officials are not misrepresented, and have
not strangely misrepresented the feeling of
their Government. Believing that it has been
deluded and defrauded by England, Turkey
seems to have definitely resolved to accept the
alliance and the policy of Russia. Whether
Russian troops are actually in Constantinople,
it is certain that they are so close as to be able,
in single day, to occupy the city. its de-
fences, and the formidable Notifications by
which foreign navies have been excluded from
the Straits. If England commences or threat
ems hOstilItcs, Russia Is In q position to seize
both Constantinople and the Dardanclles, and,
perhaps, large part of the Turkish navy.
The rumOr that secret alliance, offensive and
defensive, has been concluded between Russia

Poor ex-candidate Hendricks has been caught
again, and August Belmont is again the re-
morseless catcher. When Mr.. Hendricks was
reminded of his speeches in 1869 and so late
as 1873, recognizing the duty of paying the
bonds in gold, he declared that his "views"
then were that they should be paid in
coin, not naming gold. But Mr.. Bel
mont shows, in reply, that whatever his
"views" were, he said, in gold,' "cxclu-
"sively in gold" payment in gold" This
is a plight which straddling and sliding around
after the Indiana manner will not help. One
or two more letters from Mr.. Belmont will
spoil Mr.. Hendricks-even for the second
place on the next Democratic ticket.

Few life insurance companies have such story
to tell of their prosperity during the past year the
NewYork Life. whose annual statement appears in
our advertising columns. To most concerns of the
kind, 1877 has been year in which business fell
off when few people applied for new insurance,
and many withdrew, closing their policies at
sacrifice, rather than paying for renewal
in the hard times. Besides this all the insurance
companies have suffered loss from the decline in
United States stocks-the best companies, holding
the largest proportions of such stocks, being, of
course, heavy losers Also, there has been a great
shrnkage of value III real estate deprcciating that
which companies held on the one hand, and making
them larger holders of it, the other by the fore
closure of bonds and mortgages. Yet. with its
necessary share of such losses, the New-York Life
shows an increase of surplus last year, calculated
Mt the New-York State standard, the liabili-
ties are exceeded by the assets to the
amount of about $6,O00.000; that is, there
is SIS to meet every S5 Of debt. The company in
creased its business last year. whether measured by
the outstanding risks or the number Of policies in
force. This shows that the concern retains the
public favor, which 1t so thoroughly deserves.

Extreme differences of heat and cold in neigh
boring areas of atmosphere are supposed to
favor the development of hurricanes, by pro-
viding the occasion for a sudden rush OF
denser air toward that which is thinner. The
advocates of this view will find evidence III its
favor in the weather preceding the destructive
cyclone which visited Augusta, Georgia. at
o'clock yesterday morning. There had been
during the previous evening shower of hail,
followed by rain, with thunder and lightning.
1t is worth noting that the Georgia hurricane
lay on the outskirts of the change of weather
which has brought us rain, and that here it is
marked by an unusual fall of air-pressure.

Captain Ankers, of the Metropolis, could not
contain his Indignation, recently. at the IN
efficiency of the Life-Saving Service. The
testimony of one of the surveyors of the
Philadelphia Board of Underwriters dis
closes the fact that Captain Ankers's atten-
ton was called by him to the weakness OF
the vessel before sailing, and that the Captain
was then able to preserve discreet silence. 1t
seems well that Captain Ankers is to be the
next witness, and it is to be hoped he will be
found in one of his laxative moods.

We invite attention to the letter of ex-Gov-
ernor Bullock, of Georgia, printed on another
page, in which he answers, with great funess
and apparent candor, the recent comments of
THE TRIBUNE upon his acquittal. 1t is mpOs-
sible to read this statement Of his case with
ont feeling that injustice has been done
him. He shows that the Legislative re-
port on which doubtless accusations against
him have been chiefly based was garblcd, and
that the testimony, printed therein, was dis
avowed on his trial by the witnesses who were
set down as having given it, though they were
called on the trial as Government witnesses.
lie denies, and seems to disprOve, all charges
made against him in the matters of the pur-
chase of the State Capitol and the contract
with the Tennessee Car Company and
submits facts with regard to his administra-
ton which will alter many prevalent notions
concerning it. During his term, the valuation
of taxable property increased by $4S,00O,O00;
his expenses were $4,000 per month less than
those of his Democratic predecessor, and the
expenses of the Democratic Legislature which
Immediately followed bis term were $1,000
q month greater than those of its Republican
predecessor. The rate Of taxation is now %
per cent higher than it was during his term.
Only one of his principal State officials was
man who had come to the State since the war.
Probably, however, the strongest point in
Ex-Governor Bullock's letter is his statement
of the frankness with which he has courted
investigation, and his promptness in returning
to Georgia to meet the criminal charge against
him. Governor Bullock's statement is ex parte,
of course. but. taken together with the fact of
his triumphant acquittal, ought to end all
doubts of his innocence The TRIBUNE will
not knowingly do injustice to any man, and

Mr.. Weed has come to the conclusion that
his withdrawal of the charge of "surrepti-
"tous" demonstration was too comprehensive.
While confessing that some of the terms IN
which that act has been characterized are too
harsh, he returns to his belief that il was
stealthily" accomplished. 1t is difficult to
see how Mr. Weed could have reached this
conclusion in the same week with the publ
cation of the bankers memorial, which
showed again, as has been shown before, that
the measure was discussed in Congressional
committees during five sessions covering three
years, that it was printed eleven times IN full
by Congress and twice i'll official reports, and
that il was debated to the tune of IA columns
in The Congressional Globe. "Stealth" is not
so much addicted to the use of the printing
press.

1t has been well known from the beginning
of the silver agitation that the sound business
men of the West were on the same side with
the sound business men of the East, but The
statements of opinion made on another page
by leading Western dry goods merchants will,
nevertheless, be found of peculiar in
terest. They show not only the opinions
of the men who have made the West
the land of plenty and promise that it is, but
prove also how well it is understood there
that the silver movement is led by politicians
and dishonest debtors, whose followers are
mainly deluded farmers and irredeemable
tramps.
1t is announced from Albany that the
friends of Insurance Superintendent Smyth in
the Senate will demand, Immediately upon
the reassembing of the Legislature, an
investigation into the charges indirectly

resolution. 1t is. also shown that Mr.
Smyth asked an opinion from Attorney
General Fairchild as to his duty under the
law in question, and Mr.. Fairchild decided that
the Superintendent might employ persons to
examine insurance companies if the appropria-
ton for the conduct of the Insurance Depart
ment was exhausted.
