THE "DIATHLEss PRINCIPLES. !"

Replying at length to the Journals question
of how the South could swear ''unchanging and
Interchangeable loyalty to the Union while
protesting answering faith in the 'death-
less and indestructible principles" for which
the South fought the Charleston News and
Courier quotes freely from "The War between
the States" by Alexander H. Stephens. The
essence of the argument made by Mr.. Ste
phens is, that the election of Lincoln was an
implied threat that legislative measures would
be passed inimical to human slavery, in oppo-
sition tothe s'time- honored' doctrine of States
right to do as they pleased within their own
borders relative to slavery or any other local
question. This phase of the argument admits
exactly what the Journal has always main
tained-that the South primarily went into
rebellion for the purpose of insurfng the per
petuation of that peculiar institution. The
question of slavery, however, was, according
to the News and Courier's argument, but one
feature of the 'deathless and indestructible'
principle of States rights. In other words,
any interference with slavery would be an in
vasion of State rights that could not be toler-

In order to just appreciation of the feeling
of Great Britain in regard to the recent ex-
plosions in London, let the circumstances be
reversed. What would be the feeling in the
United States had the dynamite exploded in
the Capitol at Washington and certain men
in London should declare, in substance, that
they were responsible for itP The probabil-
ity is that we would feel like asking that they
be handed over to US or be arrested and pun
ished by the British authorities We would
not consent to remain silent under such out
rages plotted in any other country.

THE THREE-MIL.E SCULLING RACE SATURDAY
NOVEL SWIMMING MATCH.
Twenty-Five thousand people witnessed the
three-mile sculling race between Hanlan and
Lee at Rockaway Beach Saturday afternoon AT
5:23 the oarsmen pulled into position and
waited for the word which was given At exactly
$50. Both men struck the water simultane-
ously and pulled a steady stroke. Hanlan pull.
ing 81 and Lee "a strokes to the minute. They
rowed abreast, and at the turning buoy
neither one had gained an advantage both ar-
parently turning their respective buoys to
gether. Hanlan then quickened his stroke and
forged ahead. -Hanlan's time at the first turn
was AIS, Lee, 1850. Second turn, Hanlan,
14;34; Lee, 14:35. Hanlan reached the third
turn first, but waited, and Lee turned ahead of
him. Then Hanlan let himself out and easily
passed Lee one third Of the distance home, and
