THE ARRIVAL or THE ISERE.

The Gift of France, BartholdTs Statue OF
Liberty. arrived yesterday in the lsere, anu ny
AN interesting and perhaps not lnsignlhcaht
coincidence on the anniversary OF me oaV'ie Vi
Bunker Hill. The City Of New York, repre-
senting on this occasion the people OF Tue
limited States, is called upon. in appropriately
receiving this pregnant pledge of international
friendship, to manifest in the most emphauc
and unmistakable way the American sentiment
of amity and regard for the great Natlon winch
has thus sought to cement anew ana ior III
time the bonds of an old and treasured alliance.
It eau never be forgotten, and 1t must now NC
more strongly remembered than ever tha'
France came to the aid of Our forefathers When
such help was most precious because most
needed. Since that time America has steadily
unheld the moral beacon-light OF free lnstltu-
lions for the guidance of all the world, and per-
hans not little to the advantage OF those
Frenchmen who, through all the vicissitudes OF
revolution. empire and republic have labored
to establish in their own land upon firm
foundation political structure resembling our
own.
There is in these days, perhaps, Tar too gen.
eral disposition to beltrle all sentimental con-
siderations, to decry them as impractcable, emu
to magnify beyond reason unmagnative
policies and doctrines. The gift of the Bar
tholdi statue has doubtless been something OF
a stumbling block to those who hold the cur
rent views. but it is not the less certain that the
fostering of such ideas as this noble symbol en-
bodies must be beneficial to both Nations, and
must tend to draw them closer together IN those
intellectual bonds which often are more endur-
ing than commercial and political unions. The
Statue of Liberty when erected in the harbor OF
New-York will recall to Americans as well as 10
foreigners the duties and responsibilities which
their position in the front rank of civilization
imposes upon them, aud it will suggest the I'M
portance of SO ordering their National life that
tho colossal figure of Liberty SO conspicuously
posed shall seem no satire upon existing facts,
but sober and genuine symbol OF that rational
freedom which it is our ambition to illustrate,
and whose recognition by our ancient ally ana
fast friend France the freight OF the lsere
represents to-day.

His election to the presidency of that great cor

holders who know that no more alert active,
well-equipped mind could be found for the
place, and that their interests will be served
with diligence and fidelity that cannot be sur

nize in the new president the elevation and
breadth Of view that will seek the highest and
best development of railroad interests with due
regard to the rights of rival corporations. 1t
will crafty the public, for they know that no
man Is better informed than Mr.. Depew con-

prroRV1 V4KIYG PROGRESS.

TT President Cleveland should appoint rs Col
lector of Customs at New-lork either MIR.
HILBERT o. Thompson or the notorious BOSS
Mclaughlin of Brooklyn, there VIII really be
M occasion for surprise. Republicans do not
oxnect ANYTHING better They have not at any
time expected the appointment of a Republican.
Nor do they expect that Democratic Adihinis-
tration will forego the opportunity to use the
large powers OF this Office for partisan purposes.
If the Independents expect such q thing' IL Is
only another proof that they are more Ioolish
than dishonest. Men of sense do not expect
that this great Office will be managed with
strict regard for the public interests. it cannot
he so managed if it is to be used as a partisan
machine. During years under hepnDhcah
administration. il has been conducted on q
business basis, and the powers oil the once
have never been used to Interfere IN politics.
Amendments and promotions have been made
in strict regard for the Civil Service rules.
Sensible men expect that all this Will be
changed under Democratic Administration.
They do not EXPECT, in other words, that MIR.
Cleveland will keep or will make the slightest
effort 70 keep his pledges. II this seems dis
courteous. il is nevertheless the fact. Sensible
men do not in fact expect the conduct OF the
imnortant political Offices which Mr.. Cleveland
and his friends distinctly promised.
But the selection of one of the most un-
scrupulous political tricksters in the country
vould be another matter. Mr.. Cleveland might
mt into the Custom House thorough partisan
and vet not disgrace himself by selecting such
iobbers and such conspicuous representatives OF
all that is worst in the ring management OF
large cties. If he chooses either of these men,
Republican partisans will have one reason to be
esnecially satisfied. Such choice would strip
of the mask which still deceives some people.
II would show that all the professions of reform
bv means of which Mr. Cleveland was elected
were false and fraudulent. 1t would prove that
those who still commend him as great apostle
of reform in the Civil Service are as dishonest
now as they were in their ISLANDERS during the
last campaign. Yet present indications point to
the selection of one or the other of these two
notorious partisans. Mr. Cleveland sheltered
Thompson from punishment while he was
Governor, and thereby secured the support OF
Mr.. Thompson and his ring in the State and
National Conventions. Mr.. Cleveland made n
treaty with Mclaughlin, the boss of Brooklyn,
and conceded to HIM desired appointments, and
in return obtained his support. The question
seems TO be not whether this great Office shall
be used to pay the private debts Of the late can
didate but which of those debts IL shall be used

THE 1TIRIVd OUTH10E.

The World makes dishonest attempt 20
break the force of the Alabama outrage re-
corded in Tuesdays TRIBUNE. 1t reprints
brief account of the murder Of colored barber
and his wife In Darke County, Ohio, by cow
ardly mob There is no evidence that the as
sault was made upon these negroes on account
of their color. They were incorporate and
ouarrelsome, and had excited the hostility OF
ther own race as well rs of their white neigh
bors. 1t was q crime which was promptly de-
nounced by all the people in the town. Public
sympathy was at once enlisted on the side OF
the victims and as the authorities have taken
prompt action in the case, it Il probable that the
murdercrs will speedily get their deserts. 1t Is
one of many instances that may be cited to
prove that negroes rs well as whites are oc-
casonaly bounded 10 death by murderous
dcsperadoes. 1t woald not be difficult for The
World to demonstrate that negroes are some
times murdered in New York, where there is n
rafting Democratic majority every fall, as well
rs in Darke County, Ohio, where there was a
Republican majority last November. 1t would be
impossible however, to convince sensible people
that crimes against blacks in either State pos
sessed any political significance, or that public
sentiment in the North tolerates any discrmi-
nations based upon color or sanctions open vio
lation of the constitutional guarantees of equal
rights.
The Alabama episode is not to be dismissed so
easily. The story is vouched for by two resi-
dents OF Brooklyn of the highest standing
They were travelling in railway car from
which c0lored clergyman and his wife were
expelled, Notwithstanding the fact that they
had received from the ticket agent written
guarantee of their right to the seats for which
they had paid. The Northerner left his wife to
expostulate with the brutal conductor and to
remind him that black as well as white men are
entitled in free country to fulilmcnt of con-
tracts. In retaliation for this generous attempt
on the part of stranger to befriend helpless
negro preacher, band of ruffians was sent into
the car to drive out the accursed Yankees y
with bowie knives and revolvers. The con
duct0r himself, bent upon taking personal
vengeance upon the man who dared to talk
up for "nigger," followed him to hotel,
fell upon him from behind, threw him down and
furiousy beat and kicked him. That was the
treatment received by a peaceable and most
estmabe Brooklyn gentleman who had vent
ured to say kind word for colorcd clergy
man. Now will The World be kind enough TO
tell us what the Ohio barber story has to do
with these dastardly assaults upon two
Northern travellers in Alabama7 Or, better
still, will it cease its buffoonery and join us in
denouncng these outrages in manly way7

Presbyterian correspondent of The CaaaadF res-
bytrian put quetus Oh the vague rumors that the
rebellion in the Northwest was fomented by tho
clergy of the Roman Catholic Church. Writing
from Winnipeg, he says: In this country no
clergyman has denounced the wickedness of this
rebellion IN more unsparing terms than His Grace
the venerable Archbishop of Winnipeg, and the
fact that several Catholic priests remained firm
in their allegiance to the Queen and exposed their
persons to tho violence of the boodthirsty
Indians, and died at their posts IN endeavorng to
restrain the murderous ferocity of savages. should
forever silence such calumnles Those men did not
flee for safety to the older settlements. nor even
betake themselves to the forts for protection. but
died like brave men at the post of sacred duty.
Such behavior should forever silence such a cal
umuyn Such statement in a reputable Protestant
religions organ is deserved rebuke to those foolish
people who always on the lookout FOR fight
over religion.
