New Orleans TImes, Feb. IS,


We have recently seen, or rather heard
here at home, another striking indication OF this
changed relation OF the South and of Southern states
men and thinkers toward the nation. In the noble
aud classic Grafton of the Hon. Thomas j. Seinmes
pronounced ut the unyeilng OF the Washington Art-
leTy Monument the 22d, there are several remaIka-
BILE and significant passages pertinent TO this present
discussion. After sketchiDg with few mastery
strokes the historical course which eliminated In the
civil war, lie proceeded 10 say that the result Of the
haB been unihoatlon OF system and consolidation
Of Interests Ever since the cessation OF hosities the
centripetal forces OF the political system have been
operating With extraordinary energy Day by day the
States have declined In importance and power state
pride and state love are gradually fading beneath the
spend0r of centralized power. Stateship, which
conferred citizenship sdispaced by citizenship indie
pendent of stateship Al thls plainly tells US
that the cause for which tho heroic dead sacrificed
their lives is lost Indeed The orator proceeds to say
that the wounds Of the war have been healed, but the
Ideas evolved by the war have since controlled and d-
rected the Development OF the nation. Can any one
expect to sien the current OF ideas OF which The new
nation Is the evolution Y' Reaction Is not to he
peced. Therefore We look 10 the future 'not for the
vlndicalon Of political doctrines which the logic of
events has demonstrated to he speculative theories
but for the physical intellectual and social develop
nent Of this Southern land which has blOOmcd with
sublime effort and Is odorous with tho flowers of de-
voted yalor.' MIR. Scmmes then went on to renai X
that II is thought that the science Of the nneteenih
century has solved the problem Of governing masses
OF people inhabiting vast and diversified territory
problem which 10 philosophers seems so difhcult.
Railroads. telegraphs, and telephones have annili-
lated space. Power intrusied 10 distant officers Ii
longer source OF apprehension 10 central authority,
throughout the states, Is element Of conservatism

tralisnl. And concluding this subject Mr. semme'
said: :" II these views be correct the patriol may
contemplate with pleasure the magnificent future,

cpated grandeur feel no regret for the loss OF po-

THE promotion of Chief Clerk J. X. Upton
to be Assistant Secretary of the Treasury is
gratifying as an evidence that there is such
a thing in this country as Civil Service.
Mr.. Upton's advancement in the Depart
ment has been from first TO last the result Of
brain power and fidelity to honest work and
not Of personal favor or political influence.
In every place he has filled during the sew
enteen years he has been in the Depart
ment he has been conspicuous for his
thorough mastery of the work under his
hand. Besides familiarizing himself with
the entire system of administrative detail he
has made himself an expert in Treasury
LAWN knowledge of the multitude OF
statutes governing the operations of the De-
partment-and thus his services have be-
come more and more indispensable the
higher he has advanced. The Treasury has
not had in recent years Chief Clerk or As.
sistant Secretary more competent and has
had many less competent than Mr.. Upton.

THE Fifteenth Volume of THE SUNDAY
HERALD begins with this number. Those
who have followed the history of this jour
nal under its present management have, we
believe, noted its steady growth in enter
prise and usefulness. The continued pa
tronage of the best citizens of the National
Capital and of the officers of our Army and
Navy shows an appreciation which excites
our pride and gratitude. 1t animates us to
pursue the course we have marked QUITO
make the best Sunday newspaper possible,
TO steadily prefer the appreciation of the cul-
tured and moral to that of the ignorant and
immoral classes and therefore to purvey
only to the truthful and decent, even when
pandering to the taste for the sensational
and scandalous would bring immediate
profit. Every year we spend in the arduous
but attractive labor of making newspaper
reaching after an ideal we shall never fully
realize, but can still steadily approach
teaches the lesson that it does not pay to
sacrifice that good will which is the most
important though in some respects the least
tangible value OF a journal, for any tempo
rary purpose. In commenting upon current
events THE SUNDAY HERALD will be homes
and fearless. Believing that the public re
spects free criticism and plainness of speech
we shall frankly discuss public questions
even when decided opinions must excit
antagonism. There shall be no time servin!
nor silence on questions in which the publ
are concerned in the columns ofthis journal
1t may be mistaken, and, in the nature G
things, it sometimes will be, but its reader
shall at least know where THE SUNDAY HEE
AID stands and what it means.

RUSSIA AND CHINA.

The prospect of war between Russia and
China over the Kuldja question opens a
new and strange vista of interest in inter-
national politics, and adds fresh oomplica-
tion to the Eastern Question. 1t is strange
that Gladstone blind rage at political de-
feat should blind him 10 the obvious sue
cesses of Lord BeaeOnsheld's foreign policy,
successes OF which the warlike attitude OF
China are a pregnant illustration. For it
would be deceptive to regard the action Of
the Celestial Empire as entirely isolated, OF
wholly disconnected with British inlu-
ence in the East. The sudden announce
ment that Russia will refrain from occupy.
ing Nerve may fairly be regarded as an evi.
dence that she feels her position sensibly
weakened by this Chinese difficulty. Those
who have discussed the Central Asian ques
tion have too often failed to take account O
the jealously which could hardly fail to be
aroused among the Chinese by Russia's re.
peated aggfessions upon territory formerly
under the Hwangti's dominion.

THE 1STH,fUs SNIP RAILWAY.

Count de Lesseps, 1t is said, prides himself
on being diplomatist and not practical
engineer. If the easy grace with which De
Lcsseps can urge at different times precisely
opposite reasons in favor Of his scheme is
diplomacy then he is surely a diplomatst.
We have heard him at one time declaring
that the Monroe Doc,tlne had no application
to his Isthmus Canal, and then, when the
President sends message to Congress declar
ing the Monroe Doctrine must be applied TO
the Canal, he swiftly telegraphs to France
that this message assures the success Of his
scheme The fact is that NJ. de Lesesps does
not care for anything except to get control of
monstrous sum of money-after that the
deuge. His glib tongue carries him over
difficulties that would appal any practical
man, and he is as reckless of his statements
before keen American business men as be-
fore the ignorant bourgeoise Of France. For
example, when he says the difficulties of ex-
cavating canal through the rocks and floods
of the Cordilleras are less than they were
through the Sands of Suez, every man Of
sense knows he is uttering an enormous lie,
and one which his own figures, loose as they
are, prove TO be lie.
Between the schemes of such character
as de Lesseps and the plans of the Engineer
who has opened the great Mississippi TO all
vessels that can enter the harbor of New
York and restored the lost commerce of New
Orleans, the American people will have nc
difficulty in choosing. Captain Eads has Q
great reputation at stake. His plan is on,
which can be proved a success or failure il
five years. He is in the prime of life, will
promising future before him. On the con
trary NJ. de Lesseps must be extraordinarily
sanguine If he expects to see the fruition o
his projects.
But behind de Lesseps are the stationary OF
decaying powers of Europe, now, taught by
imperial England the value of such acquisi
tions, eager for colonies and commerce. Ger
{ many overreaches us in the far-off Southern
sea. France is seeking footholds on the Yves
African Coast, is bridging with railway tn
, desert ofSahara, and has repeatedly shown
, desire to retrieve in America the mistake
which lost her Canada and Louisiana. W
| do not believe that anything can be NOR
y certain than that supineness on the part c
the United States toward such enterprises a
those now impending on the Isthmus vii
prove in the end dearer than action. TIL
Il only way to enforce the Monroe Doctrine an
to keep interlopers of this Western Continer
is to undertake ourselves, and as a nation
n the great public works which the world
l. growing commerce make necessary, and whe
i these works are to be carried on outside OF
II territorial borders the more direct the HI
=. ton interest in them the better.

IT was doubtless our fault that our esteemed
contemporary the Post thinks we imputed to
it an intention not to state the position of
Governor Seymour with candor and accuracy.
We had no intention of making such an i'm
putation. As for the boom business, We
thought our contemporary had monopoly
of the Seymour boom. 1t is true that many
politicians regard the Seymour boom as a
Tilden ruse, to fill up the time while the
agents of Gramercy Park are gathering up
the fragments which were so badly scattered
by the November election in New York.
Yet we do not doubt the Posts sincerity
and we have great hopes of converting it
into an earnest advocate of the nomination
of General Hancock. We commend to the
brilliant and astute editor of the Post, the
facts and arguments contained in our extra
edition to-day.

Mr.. JUSTICE FIELD has made himself hon.
ored among non-partisan lawyers for the
ability with which he has defended our
Constitution, and expounded the necessary
distinctions between State and Federal power.
We have not thought Mr.. Field an available
candidate this year for the Presidency, but
the disgust of the people at the prostitution
of the Judiciary to partisan purposes may
some day become SO deep that they will set
the seal of their condemnation upon it by
demanding for President just such a jurist
as Mr.. Justice Field.
