tion by having introduced direct and uni
versal suffrage through personal ukase,
shall allow the State prosecutor to put me in
the dock as the intellectual accomplish and
co-author Of the coup dGtat." He advised
the King to clay his hand firmly on the hilt
OF his sword In order to effect this State
stroke, and thus to found anew the power Of
the house of Hohenzollern."
All this may sound patriotic and radical
enough to giddy and light-brained persons
but, as Mr.. BLIND points out, 1t Is not difficult
to recognize in such a specious propaganda
the precise teachings inculcated by the Bona
partist conspirators before Dec. Q, 1851. 1t
was by just such candestine league with
pscudo-Socialsts as BISMARCK has twice
tried to effect, and by the same dclusive bait
OF universal suffrage, that Bonapartism
crcpt into irresponsible power. Mr.. BLIND
says that BISMARCK got his first lessons
In this branch OF statecraft when he
was accredited rs Minister to the second
empire, and that LAssALLE, who Is pro-
nounccd "a would-be PERsIGNY in mock
revolutionary guiso," completed his educa-
tion Another proof that LAssALLE's loud

they all contemplated the Moderation Of the

centres, whore the Progressists were popu-
lar hut quite overlooked tho fate OF the
peasants and agricultural laborcrs, who in
Germany, rs in most o her countries, consti-

his conviction that LAssALbE, had he lived,

happen to KNOW" he says, that Countess
HATzFELD, the intimate md lifelong friend
OF LAssALLE, declared after his death that
had he lived six months longer he would
have entered upon n Government post"
1t is certain that LAssALLEs fellow
worker and political lcgatee, LoTHAR
BCCHER, who also has figured before
the world as an advocate OF State social
ism, was rewarded for secret services bya
confidential office under BISMARCK, which he
holds to this day, and in which he has busted
himself with editing work OF LAssALLE.
In short, although BIsMARCK's socialism is
an object Of dcrision, it is not, according to
Mr.. KARL BLIND n whit more venal and hyp-
ocritical than that Of many sclf-styled cham
pions OF the Socialist propaganda.

Act Together.

The Railroad Commission BILL which was
ordered to n third reading in the Assembly,
provides for the appointment Of the three
Commissioners by the Governor, with the
consent of the Senate. Though the Senate
may reject Gov. CoRNELI's nominations he
alone can name the men.
The bill was ordered TO third reading by
only two majority. II Mr. PATTERSON, the
Democratic Speaker, had voted on that mo-
ton with the Democrats and the anti-CoR-
NELL Republicans, the vote would have been
tic. But, for reasons which he has stated,
Mr.. PATTERSON on that occasion went with
the Republican and Tammany followers Of
the Governor,
Nevertheless, II has been made apparent
that if all the members Of the Assembly who
are opposed TO the appointment Of tho Com
missioners by Gov. CoRNi.LL act together
when the bill comes up for a third reading it
cannot obtain the sixty-fivc votes which are
necessary to carry it through tho Assembly.

Liberal party, while they do not dispute the
correctness Of the computations above cited,
deny firmly that they constitute any warrant
for compensation. Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN, for
instance, takes the bold ground that the ro-
auctions made by the Land Court certainly
do not err on the side of unfairness to the
landlord, that the old rents were exorbitant
and Ubiquitous, and that to give compensation
under such circumstances would be to re-
ward injustice. The tyrannical rack-renting
! landlords would actually be remuncratcd for
their own misconduct whereas those who
had been equitable and liberal, and whose
rents had accordingly suffered very slight
dimlnution, would be compensated in the
inverse ratio Of their merits. Sir CHARLES
dixie treats the claim OF the Irish landlords
with derision, anj declares that his own con-
stitucnts,misht with equal propriety set up
n claim for losses accruing to them in con-
sequence Of the exclusive devotion of Paria-
mcnt to Irish affairs. Even Lord DERBY,
who was himself u Conservative but yester-
day, thinks that in the state of things in Ire
land those whom the State at infinite cost and
trouble is struggling TO preserve may fairly
be asked to accept tho necessity of sacrifice
on their side.
As to the precedent alleged to be presented
in tho case of tho West Indian slave owners,
the circumstances are not analogous. The
Irish landlords are not deprived of their prop
erty altogether; they are simply forccdby the
strong arm OF the law to cXact for it only
such n reasonable rent as will permit the
tenant to live. Suppose that in the begin
ming of this century rebellion had broken
out among the blacks in Jamaica, and was
VIGOROUSLY owing to the fact that their
white taskmasters had been grinding them to
death. Is it not certain that the British
Government after putting down the insur-
rectiOn, would have felt constrained to re-
move the cause by regulating tho amount of
labor which planters could lawfully impose
upon their slaves And in the case supposed
which is q perfect analogue to the present
situation OF Irish landlords not q
claim Of slave owners for compensation have
! been rejected with contempt?
1t is tolerably clear in view Of the opin-
ions expressed by Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN, Sir
CHARLES dixie, and Lord DFRBY, that the
brazcn camor Of Irish landlords to be com
pcnsated for the deprivation Of the power to
starve their tenants will receive but slight
attention from the Liberal party. They will
be fortunate, indeed, II in the years to come
they escape q demand for the disagreement
of some Of the il-gotten gains which they
have wrung for centuries from gaunt and
| hungry peasantry.

II seems to be the idea Of the directors Of
the Bank OF America in this city that when
they discover the commission of crime by
one OF their clerks, it is right and proper, and
the part Of good citizens, 10 conceal the fact,
and let their dishonest servant go on practi-
cally undsturbed in the walks of life, posi-
bly, to prey upon the purses Of others, If op-
portunity shall favor him.
The coupon clerk OF that institution, ac-
cording to the published accounts, embezzlcd
$4,000 of the banks money last year.
This t::,lt "a.ss discovered in December last.
The deficit was thereupon made good by the
offender or his friends, and the occurrence
has been kept secret until now. And some Of
the directors express establishment that any
thing should be said about 1t at this late day,
after the lapse Of four months.
One OF them does not hesitate to declare
that he would give him q position to work
for him tomorrow as soon as any man he
knows" We dare say. Possibly this director
voted to retain the thief in the service Of the
bank.
Another member of the Board says the
amount was so small they did not consider 1t
necessary to make it public at the time. OF
course not; it was only little matter OF
$4,000 or so, mere trifle to u rich bank di-
rector. He also thinks the case would have
been different if the money had not been re-
covered, or if the cashier OF some prominent
official had been concerned.
No doubt it would have been dirercnt-to
the bank-if the money had not been repaid
But what difference could it have made as to
the obligation of the directors to prosecute
the criminal If he had been the cashier OF
"some prominent official instead of the cou'
pom clerk?
The Board Of Directors Of this bank would
do well to purchase a copy OF the Code Of
Criminal Procedure and study that portion
which forbids the compromise OF fclonies.

Will Irish Landlords be Compensated f.!

One of the questions which will be actively
discussed during the present Parliamentary
recess is the justice and expediency OF com
pensating Irish landlords for the reductions
OF rent brought about by the GLADSTONE
Land act The Conservatives advocate
grant OF public money for that purpose,
whereas several prominent Liberals squarely
deny the right OF landowners to any such
award. How much are the landlords likely
to lose, and how large sum would be need
ed to make good the loss ?
OfcJuyse the amount OF the reduction in
rent will be seriously affected by the action
of Parliament in regard to the so-c;llcd
HEALy clause in the Land act According to
the construction put upon that clause by a
majority of the Land Commissioners
which unqucstionably conceded with the in
tcntiOn OF its framcr-the enjoyment OF
premises for length of time is not to be
taken into account as an clement OF compcn-
satlon FOR improvements made by the tenant
or his predecessor. The contrary view was
taken by the representative VI the landlords
on the Commission, and his construction has
been sustained by the British High Court Of
Appeal. Mr.. IlEALY has consequently given
notice of an amendment to the Land act
which shall establish in tho most explicit
terms the principle which he supposed to be
already embodied in the statute.
II we suppose that this amendment Is ac-
ceptcd BY the GLADSTONE Mn.stry-thcy
cannot we'll reject it-aud is carried through
the House Of Lor,ls-which, to say the least,
is doubtful-the awards OF the Land Court
will stand. Now these are shown, by an
analysis of some 1920 decisions, to involve
an average reduction OF more than 20 per
cent. in the original rental, but as 1t is i'm
probable that such diminution will be uni
vcrsal, we may take 90 per cent. as a reason
able estimate OF the loss to be incurred by
landlords, provided the Land act IL amended
In the way described. Should, however, Mr.
HEALY's amendment fail for any cause to
become Il law, the average reduction in rent
ais will scarcely exceed ten per cent
Let Ms look next at the number Of tenants
affected by the action OF the Land Commits
sion. The tenant farmers OF ireland are said
to aggregate 100000 but Of these about
100000 are lcaschUldcrs who may be OK
cluded from consideration. The farms also,
held unlcr lcasc are, as rule, much larger
than those he'd uadcr the system of yearly
OCCUPANCY, and it is estimated that lease
holding tenants pay onc-thri and probably
thrcc-ciShths OF the rent for Irish land. De-
Quoting heir quota from the gross rental OF
farm land, computed at s51,OO0,OOl VIC have
about sjo,OO0,O)O for the rental which before
the application OF tho Land act was cXactcd
from yearly occupants A reduction Of twnn-
~ per cent which will only be ma lc,
however, provided the construction put
on the lICALY clause b. the Land Court L.
