PRESIDENT ARTHUR AND THE PEACE
CONGRESS-

In his message touching the Peace Congress,
President Arthur uses this language:
Inquiry having been made by some OF the Republics
invited whether intended that this international
congress shall convene it Is important that Congress
should at as early day as Is convenient inform me, by
resolution otherwise, Of its opinion in the promises
Why should the Republics ask such
question: The President invited them and
they accepted. Why then should they have
any doubt about tho Congress assembling
1t would have been better if the President
had frankly stated that six weeks after he
had issued the invitations, with Mr.. Blaine as
Secretary of State, doubt was thrown upon
the whole scheme Of the Congress by Mr.. FIRE.
lnglmysen sending and publishing a dispatch
that the President wanted time to consider
whether he would, on the whole, have the
Congress assemble. Naturally the Republics
were surprised and inquired about the change.
Suppose President Arthur should now invite
the members of the Diplomatic Corps to dine
at the White House on the 1st of May and
few days hence Mr. Frcinghuyscn should
whisper round in social circles of Washing
ton that the President was not quite sure that
the dinner would come off, and then the
President should publicly ask Congress whether
it was wise to give dinner to the Foreign
Ministers, what would be thought of American
hospitality 7 And yet that is precisely what
the President has done with the independent
Governments Of North and South America.

TIE yEJg FOREIGN APPOINTMENTS.

Judpe Taft, appointed Minister to Austria,
will make an every way respectable represent
alive Mr.. William Walter Phelps rendered his
resignation last September and, although he ndl-
Gated his Willingness to remain in charge OF the
legation until it should be convenient to send
ont his successor, his patient courtesy
has, under the dilatory habits OF the
Administration, been subjected to pretty
long strain. Judge Taft will be fortunate
if he gains anything like Mr.. Phelps's
standing with the Government and in the
society at Vienna. He lacks Mr.. Phelps's
familiarity with the language and the country,
but he has had large public experience, and
he is scholar and gentleman.
Mr.. Nicholas Fish, who has sservedacceptably in
Switzerland is now sent after brief retirement,
to Belgium The place is more agreeable, and he
is quite adequate to its duties. The appoint
ment is n compliment to his father, the dis
tinguished Secretary of State under General
Grant.
John NJ. Francis, Editor of The Troy Times,
and former Minister to Greece, replaces Mr.
Moran at Lisbon. We know of no good
reason why Mr.. Moran. who was so long
the admirable Secretary IN London, should be
removed, but Mr.. Frances Will serve eXceiienty
IN the place, and all lis friends will rejoice IN
the appointment.
General Badeau, whose career in London
was not creditabe, and who has hoped for the
Mission to Rome is promoted downstairs to
the Consul G cneralship in Havana. This
is an unfit and disgraceful appointment; and
General Badeau, i'll the place of the PAINS
taking and accomplished COnsul-Gencral Hall,
is grotesque as well as painful figure
Mr. Dayton is Frelinghuysen appointment
1t doesn't mean much more, and Ill
the Hague it won't count. Mr.. Wick
ershall Tor Denmark, has been for fifteen
years Superintendent of Public lnstruc-
ton in Pennsylvania. He is a gentleman of
good standing, and he has the rare accomplish
ment of satisfying both Senator Cameron and
Senator Mitchell.

THE RLGNT on SUFFRAGE LN lLR1NY.

The frauds upon the ballOt-box which arc
credited with cccting Congressman Nolan
Mayor of Albany have produced intense in
dignation in that city quite independent of
party lines. Two large public meetings to
protest against the Outrages, devise
means for the prevention Of their recur-
renee and for the punishment of their perpe-
traitors have been held, and at the second
TIE principal speaker N. c. Moall, one of
the best known of Albany Democrats, lead
ing lawyer, and an ex-Dstrict Attorney of the
county. Mr.. Moal drafted what is known as
"the honest election law" Of 1880. This law
contains provision giving to each party or
interest represented in a canvass certain num-
Der of watchers at each poll. And yet the evI-
dence is as Mr.. Moak stated in the course
of his uncommOnly earnest address, that
in the Third Ward lof Albany one of the
"inspectorS just out OF State Prison, where he
"was sent for numbering man, refused to
"allOw the watchers selected by the citizens
"assocatiOn to be present at the POLL In
keeping with the conduct of this prison-b bird.
who was doubtless made an Inspector on the
theory of the survival of the unfttcst, appears
to be that of certain of his fellow w-ofiicials in
the Fourth Ward of Albany. In one of
the districts of that ward only JOY
ballots were returned as having been
cast for DR.. Swinburne, Noans opponent for
the Mayoralty, while over 300 men have come
forward who stand ready to make affidavit
that they voted for him. And this is but one
of many frauds that were pIactsed. Indeed.
those that have carefully looked into the mat
ter declare that since the election when John
4. Grisw0ld was counted out of the Governor
ship by Tweed and his gang of repeaters and
inspectors no greater crime against suffrage
has ever been committed in this State
The public sentiment excited by such out
RACES too often spends itself without accom-
plishing any tangible results. The victims.
their friends. the decent element in the com
munity generally utter a large quantity Of
impressive language, but nobody gets hurt.
But the citizens of Albany who believe that
the right of suffrage il right worth vind-
eating, a right that lies at the foundation of
our governmental system, are not only talking

Senator Anthony pointed out that members
of Congress only had themselves to blame Tor
this extravaganza. They had ordered the
printing and would have to pay for it. SO the

that the amount appropriated would not have

The announcement of the death Of Charles
Darwin will be a shock to men of science
the world over A giant among his fellows,
his name has been for years familiar TO the
public, and many and fierce have been the
battles over the evolution theory which he did so
much to develop. What Darwnism really is
may be gathered from the brief summary printed
elsewhere. What Mr.. Darwin was in his family
relations Will be found pleasantly described in
an extract from an article headed " The PHI
losopher at Home" which we give on another
page Some estimates of the man and his
work, by James Sully, George Ripley and 9th
ers, are also printed in the obituary notice.
The Assembly yesterday adopted resolution
providing adjournment " without day on the
18th of May. The resolution is concurrent,
and, of course, will have no binding force um-
less it is also adopted by the Senate. 1t is to
be hoped that the Senate will at once take it
I'D and pass it, and that having done so both
houses will work with renewed diligence until
the end of the session. There is abundance of
time between now and the 18th Of May for
clearing the calendar of all the measures of
large or small public interest that are upon it.
So much of the rest of the pending legislation
as remains undisposed of when the gavels finally
fall can go over until another year, or 90 over
permanently, without serious disadvantage to
any considerable number of people.
The friends of the plan to establish post
graduate school of medicine i'll this city are
determined, it seems, to carry out their pro-
ject, even if it shall be necessary to engraft
themselves on some other institution than the
University of the City of NcwYOrk When
doctors disagree the situation is often embar
rassing but some result will probably be
reached by which physicians from the interior
will have an opportunity TO keep abreast with
the advancement i'll their profession, by TAX
ing short terms of instruction such as would
be afforded by the scheme suggested. This is
need which many members of the prOfes-
sion, outside of large cities especially, have
felt. The entire population of the country
will be benefited by anything which shall
keep the family doctor up with the times.
The Senators yesterday fell to debating the
extravaganza in public printing which Con-
eress indulgcs in. a good deal of wholesome
criticism was uttered, but the matter ended
only in talk, for the deficiency appropriation
bill, which caused it, was passed. 1t
Is hoped that in the near future some
thing will be done to stop the printing of
40 many acres of rubbish The volumes seldom
are placed where they would do the most good.
