Tuesday Homing, October 31, 1871

CHICAGO holds a fast to day.

THE editor of the Cincinnati "Times and Chronicle" wants to know what becomes of special providences under the astounding fact that Mr. CHEENEY'S church was b.irned?

THE Louisville "Courier-Journal" reliably informed that there are people in New York who think that one of the saddest things connected with the Chicago fire was the escape of BABNEY AABON.

A NOTABLE FACT is it that Amherst, Boudoin, Yale, Harvard and Williams students in their college publications take strong grounds against educating the sexes together. Are the boys afraid of lively competition?

THE Chambers "Journal" advances the theory that the rapid burning of Chicago was owing to the fact that the "Joliet stone," of which the city was largely built, is naturally saturated with an oleaginous substance somewhat like petroleum, and highly inflammable.

NEWSPAPERS, in great cities, are the strongest of financial enterprises when well managed and liberally conducted. Mr. JAMES GRANT, in his new book on the "Newspaper Tress of London," expresses the belief that the profits of the London "Times" are £460,000 per annum, Mr. GRANT edited the "Morning Advertiser when Lord BROUGHAM and Sir DA VID BREWSTER wrote for it, and Lord PALMERSTON. unofficially of course, furnished editorials, and may be considered good authority.

THE Chicago "Journal" justly complains that, the owners of brick yards, in that city unlike their commodity, are anything but "perfect bricks." They are heartlessly taking advantage of the present dire necessities of the community, by putting their prices beyond the reach of any but millionaires. It is difficult to decide—says the "Journal" which is the greater robber—he who stops you on the public highway, with a pistol at your head, and demands your purse, or he who in a time of general calamity, demands an exorbitant price for that which he happens to possess which the community is pressinglv in need of.

OUR English exchanges come filled, not only with generous words of sympathy for afflicted Chicago, but with acknowledgments of the best traits of the American character that, while they Hatter, must also surprise our countrymen, coming from so prejudiced a source. Says the London "Telegraph:"—"Chicago may be blotted out in flames and ashes, but in pluck and energy the American people will never be bankrupts." Kemarks the "Daily News," of London:—"All that ihe energy of men can do to mitigate the suffering, and repair the dumage, will be done." After reviewing the fearful destructiveness of the fire, the "Times"—the veritable "Thunderer" himself—observes: "We may be confident, however, that the natural resource of the place and the native energy of the Americans will more than repeat the marvels of the original development of the city." So onr boasts in the past were not idle utterances after all.

Agonizlugr over Alixis.

It is amusing to read the programme arranged for the Russian Grand Duke's reception, and for his amusement after he is safely clasped to America's bosom. But it is a little solemn 'and a little old fogyish, too, we suspect) to reflect that the sums of money lavished on this twent one years old boy, who is furnished forth somewhat lavishly at the start, would feed and clothe through the winter some thousands of people who will suffer grievously from cold and hunger. A hundred years from now such devices for gratifying a toady ish spirit and affording hungry office-holders an opportunity to make further inroads on the public purse, will be regarded as criminal. Now any protest against proceedings of this nature is regarded as eccentric. Some of the accounts of the preparations for the reception of the imperial Muscovite are quite touching. One report says the reception committee have given especial attention to providing for his personal comfort in the minutest particulars. For instance, it is arranged that all the coachmen and attcsdcnts on the occasion of his landing on these hospitable shores shall wear white ijlovcs. Ye powers who watch over the august destinies of princes, forbid that the exquisite sensibilities of the royal ALEXIS should be offended by the sight of any barehanded barbarian when he first sets foot in these domains! Let no such disgrace as this smutch our plain democratic escutcheon. Let the Russian prince behold the congenial sight of the common people steeped in poverty that the rich may enjoy greater luxury, for so shall sweet reminiscences of his native land stir

imperial blood and conduce to

his peace of mind and quiet slumber! Let no rude contrast between our customs and modes of thought and action and those that prevail in ALEXANDER'S realms cause him a single pang! Rather let him suppose that here as well as there the bounties of providence are showered down with unstinted prodigality on the favored few, while for the many there remain want, hunger, cold, suffering and death. By all means let his attendants have white gloves. But there is one delicate attention whieh the New York authorities have undertaken to show ALExrs that is of doubtful practicability. His rooms are to be guarded by a detachment of police with a view to shield his sacred person from newspaper men who are sure to haunt his steps for the purpose tf "interviewing" him. If the son of ALEXANDER should be shut up in a glass case, fastened with twelve locks, and sunk in the depths of the sea, as the genie in the Arabian Nights shut up his wife, we doubt if he could be protected from the persistent onslaughts of the reporters. However painful it may be to the young man's feelings, we very much fear that he is destined to meet face to face that omnipresent being, the American newspaper reporter.

Host we Pay the Confederate Bonds? Gen. BUTLEB thinks that the British government will present, among the claims laid before the Washington Commission, a demand for the payment of the Confederate Cotton Loan to English hold' era. He thinks that the terms of the treaty are broad enough to include even that preposterous claim, which no American ever entertained for a moment without mingled derision and indignation. The origin of the loan is well remembered. Certain members of the English aristocracy, wishing the overthrow pf this Republic, were willing even to invest their money in the enterprise. So they made a loan to the Confederacy! taking therefor the bonds in question, which were secured by a pledge of cotton. The collapse of the rebellion of course transferred to the United States the security for their loan, and their bonds became waste paper.

Gen. BUTLER, if we understand him, by no means argues that the preposterous claim must, according to the principles of international law, be allowed. He merely says that the language of the treaty per mits its consideration, and that we have bound ourselves to submit if the Commissioners decide against us. But there are those even among Americans who hold that the Commissioners must decide in favor of the bond-holders. Very concisely stated their argument is this: "It is a principle of international law which is perfectly well established that the obligations of every kind incurred by a de facto government must be assumed by the government which succeeds it, no matter how illegitimate the authority of the first may have been. The successive governments of France have never failed to charge themselves with the liabilities of the governments that have preceded them The case is not at all affected by the fact that the debt may be incurred by the leaders of a rebellion, or by a usurper In any event it must be paid, if the rebellious or usurping power passed beyond the stage of mere military occupation, and ruled through the agency of the civil magistrate. The Confederacy was a de facto government. We declared, it is true, on all occasions that it was a mere revolt with no shadow of legitimacy about it. But we acted as if it were an independent nation, and claimed all the rights of actual war. To say nothing of the blockade, we exchanged prisoners, confiscated property and enforced the obligations of neutrality on other nations. We claimed to succeed to the ownership of the abandoned property of the Confederacy and had our claim allowed. Foreign nations, too, conceded belligerent rights to the Confederacy. Therefore, there is a perfect case for the bondholders, if the English government choose to urge it."

But there are two circumstances, which, in our opinion, outweigh all that can be saidonthe bondholders'side. The English government is not obliged to present the claim, and will probably hesitate long before voluntarily bringing forward so iniquitous a charge. The terms of the treaty make it impossible for the bondholders themselves to prosecute their claim. Moreover, if the matter should ever come before the Commissioners, the terms in which the contract is couched will prove a bar to its enforcement. The whole thing was a speculation on the part of these British Rebel sympathizers, and their bonds were made payable on the happening of a future contingency—"the recognition of the independence of the Southern'Confederacy!" It would be a strange Commission that would declare the

bond3

payable before they mature!

THE

rENALTY

WE HAVE the assurance of the Philadelphia "Press" that "whatever doubts there once were of the Republicans carrying New Jersey have been dissipated. The majority for WALSH will reach thousands, while the Legislature will be Republican in both branches. Democracy is at a discount everywhere."

THE Unitarians propose to raise $50,000 toward building a new church, for Robert Collyer in Chicago at once, and the Unitarian Association has*voted $3,000 for his salary the coming rear. The choir of Mr. Hale's church in Boston, gave a concert last Saturday evening for the benefit of Mr. Collyer, who lost his house, furniture, clothing, and all his manuscript sermons—the greatest loss of all, for they cannot be replaced. A letter from Mr. Collyer the other day was brim ming full of hope and courage, and made us feel more than ever what a genuine Christian man he is. The last thing we heard of him was, that he was standing in a cart in his shirt sleeves dealing out bread.—Golden Age.

PKOF. Agissiz hit the nail on the head, when he said that in our modern educa lion too much is 4nade of the memory and too little of the mind. A great many of our scholars are merely intellectual rag-bags, full of the shreds and patches of knowledge, bits of history, poetry, science, ethics, and law, of no sort of use to anvbodv.

THE CARDINALS have advised the Pope to quit Rome in order to preserve his spiritual independence, and he will probably act in accordance with their suggestion, leaving the Holy City to his Unholiness the King of Italy, who can hardly make it a more immoral, unchristian, or unclean place than it has been for a hundred years.

yst

for the crime of which

HAWKINS has been convicted, at Salt Lake, is imprisonment not more than twenty nor less than three years or a tine not exceeding $10,000 or both at the discretion of the court. There are people sentimental enough to call the infliction of this penalty persecution. Religious toleration is justly considered an excellent feature of our national and local policy, but no man has a right under the of religion to violate the civil law ordained for preserving order in society. It is as adulterers and not as "Latter Day Saints" that BRIGHAM YOUNG and his coadjurors are indicted. In punishing crime the Jaw ignores a man's religion. It knows him only as a violator of its provisions andjdeals with him as such. If any man chooses to make crime a part of his religion it is carrying the doctrine of religious toleration a little too far to say that he shall be exempt from the penalties which are visited upon other violators of law. The firm and vigorous conduct of Chief Justice MCKEAN is worthy of commendation and he will, we believe, command tne moral support of the great bulk of our law abiding people.

GBACE GREENWOOD met Joaquin Mirier at Salt Lake City, and gives the following discriminating account of him, after remarking that lie strongly reminds her of N. P. Willis. He is simple, unconventional, and apparently unspoiled by English adulation and social petting. He seems to be a man of no disguises or pretensions, is still, where he feels at ease, as impulsive, natural, and unsuspecting as a boy, yet not wanting in keen perception of character and a cool, quiet shrewdness, which, if I mistake not. has had a good deal to do with bis late remarkable success in literature- Undoubtedly he has genius, but he seems to lack,, if not the artistic faculty, the habit of systematic effort and conscientious stndy. Xet he looks quite as much the artist and the student as the "Wild Singer of the Sierras." He dressess like a young painter .showing in his brown velvet coat and dark sombrero and rich fur overcoat, his jewelry and crimson necktie, an eye for effects of light and shade, and a sensuous delight in ornament and color. But his face is pale and thoughtful, the expression of his eyes grave and introverted, and lie has something of a scholarly stoop. In short, he looks far more like the man who has spent his best years over the desk, than like the hunter, the miner, the reckless rider and fighter, the daring, romantic frontiersman that he is said to be. Doubtless our literature needs some freshening, half foreign element, and it may best at new life and strength tfill flow into it through the songs of the most imagination and dramatic poet—but he seems to me to be in danger of thinking that great poems sing themselves—that he can continue to take the world as he took London critic*, by the wild, galloping swing of verse—by a mountain-air-rush of strong, free, fancy by a prairie-fire sweep of passion, without further labor and study, without, careful, constant culture. But" he is a man in his prime his career is now in his own hands, and neither counsel nor criticism can make or mar it.
