THE BANCROFT TREATY. The dispatches from Germany indicate that Minister Pendleton is having serious difficulty in effecting a satisfactory understanding with Bismarck concerning the light of American citizens residing in Germany. The trouble lies in the unfriendly construction plat ed by the Premier upon the Bancroft treaty. Formerly all able-bodied r en reading in the country were required, withcut regard to their nationality or .citizen-hip, to render to the Government at least seven years of 'military r-ervice. To reside in Germany, under the protection of the German Government, were deemed, without reference to nativity or iiationality, benefits equivalent to the service. By the Bancroft treaty this "hardship, as to our people, was abolished, and it was stipulated that American citizens residing in ficrmany, who have not abjured their allegiance to the Government of the J'nited Mates, shall be exempt from military duty. T!;e number of our citizens residents in that country is verr large. This exe:n:'ti:i i- universally regarded as a rare a::ii valuable privilege. Its enjoyment by . lare a class seems to have invoked 7nir;s.t its posers considerable native prejudice, and to have excited in Bismarck a spirit of undi-gtii.sed hostility. In consequence, l.e ha? resorted to every expedient 1'ose'sing the least plausibility to nullify the exemptions. As one means to this e:y. tae re-iJence of German-Americans ift the E:t:pire has been subjected, In some
of the provinces, to arbitrary and oppressive restrictions, and, among others, to a limitation of time. In tome cases the permitted period of residence' has been limited to a few months, after which if the proscribed individual remains in the country,, his privilege of exemption is forfeited, and he is liable to full military duty. It i said, by' those best qualified to judge, that if it could be done without rupturing the peace of the two countries, Bismarck would enforce against the (Jerman-Americans all the despotic regulations adopted against the Poles. . It is this persistent .infringement of the Bancroft treaty which has brought about the pending negotiations between Minister Pendleton and the ierman Government. It is said to be the purpose of this Government to demand the strict construction of, and strict conformity to, the terms of the Bancroft treaty. It is certain that nothing less will satisfy public opinion in America.
feix copies of the Weekly Sentinel for 93. CONGRESS AND THE LAND GRANTS. Washington correspondents of the Republican papers state that many Democratic members of Congrcs are compiling speeches favoring a restoration of illegally gotten land grants, but that the Republican majority in the Snate "who have legal minds'' will defeat the propositions. This is exactly what we may expect from the past reoord-i of the two parties on this question. The same wastefulness, the same dishonesty that characterized the actiom of the republican party in its management of the people's property, may be looked for as the chief element in the defence of the spoilers. There is no single direction in which true reform N needed more than in a determined eilbrt to enfore a restitution of the stolen property, not only in accordance with the letter but in the spirit of the law. This spirit has been embodied in the homestead act, and the public land therein been considered the proierty of the people. It was the spirit and intention of that act to retain this property for -tn'il tet)!tiirt, and to keep it from the market as a mere speculative commodity. By one way and another, characteristic of the most jettifogging methods of the law, enormous bodies of property belonging to the people of this country have been taken from them and given, on one or another pretext, to corporations and individuals, and in quantities so enormous as not to be readily comprehended, and this, in nearly every case, against the protests of the Democratic minority, and through the active influence of Republican members of loth Houses, and with the connivance, in several cases, of the President and the Supreme Court. Now we are to hear from Republican source the same old cry of duty of the Government to fulfill its promises and sustain its credit by substantiating these ili-gotten and illegal claims, but we never hear a word from those sources about its duty to the people whose property has been stolen by their chosen servants. The lands thus taken from the people aggregate a round sum of ol2.300 square miles. This is equal to the combined New England States, the States of New York. Pennsylva nia. New Jer?ey. lelaware, Virginia. South Carolina. Ohio and one-half of North Carolina all combined. A line drawn from Sandusky, O., south to the Ciulf of Mexico, in cluding all the territory east of the line to the Atlantic Ocean, would just about equal the territory thus squandered. The three Pacific Railroads alonecall for 2OJ.Ö00 square miles, or nearly equal to the combined territory of the great States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentuckv and Tennessee. liy far the greatest quantity of these lands are unearned: that is, the companies to which they were granted have not complied with the contracts under which they were made. We do not advocate the enforcement ot the people's claims in cases where railroadx have fulfilled their contracts honestly, and in a great measure sold them out to individual buyers, but these do not represent one-half of the property contained in the grants. Rut we do most emphatically advocate that in all cases where the Govern ment's title has not been extinguished by compliance with its contracts bv either railroads or individuals, that such violation of contract by the roads shall be held to be equivalent to the forfeiture of their grants, and also that all further grants for any purpose, except for actual settlement according to the spirit of the homestead law, should be prevented. The people are awake on this issue, and will encourage the Congressmen and the Administration in their efforts to comiel a restitution of forfeited claims. And Repub lican Congressmen and Senators will fail, by tbe bloody appeal of sectionalism, to blind the eyes of the people, either North or South, on this great question of reform. The Sentinel and the Farm Guide for 9)1.73. THE POWER OF LAW. There may be some things in the social condition of South Carolina objectionable to the moral sense of the world, as there certainly is in the social condition of London and New York, and most other communities of which we know anything, but South Carolina merits the commendation of being the first State in which lynch law has been prevalent at times to apply the law fairly to the Iower and peril of extra legal justice. Where the law is powerless or practically non-existent, as happens in some of our frontier regions, there is an excuse for an outside administration of justice that can be found in no community of legal organization and orderly administration. There is none where there are courts, and sheriffs, and juries, and jails, and all the appurtenances of legal justice. Yet criminals have been killed by one process or another, ranging all the way from hanging and shooting to whipping and kicking to death by mobs, sometimes disguised, sometimes not, where th re was no lack of legal means of punishment, and no reason to believe th law would not fully vindicate the outraged rights of community. In such ca.ses the appliance of lynch law i- so clearly an abrogation of right and constitutional law tbat it is an abuse ol reason to argue in justification or palliation of it. South Carolina, to her great and, we hope, enduring honor, has taken the lead in asserting the preeminent and pre-doruinant right of rightful law. , i A man committed a murder In that Stated A mob of disguised men forced the jail, where he should and would have remained
till the Jaw could have ariven him. his dues,
and took him oat and punished lum fatally. But he escaped before death overtook him, and, reaching neighborhood of acquaintances, revealed the names of more than thirty of his, illegal executioners. The whole lot has been indicted, and we have reason to hoi will be punished. This is a lou; Hep forward in the establi-bment of law asrainst the fantatic justice that is too apt to rule the action of thoe who mpplant the law by their own inclinations. It matters not a whit that .the victim of the lynching was . guilty" and deserved all he got. Every . reasonable probability led t the conclusion that the courts wov Id do according to law all that any mob would do in defiance of law. In that state of things a mob to execute extralegal or illegal justice is simply an abomination to the moral sense of every intelligent and right-feeling man. But just such caes have occurred in many States under the same general condition., and have escaped with as complete immunity as if their action had been that of an honest, law-abiding body. We Can not now recall a single in stance of the legal punishment of mobs that have indicted illegal punishment on offenders. Indiana, has had a ?core of lynching mob in the lat five years, but if a man of all the hundreds concerned has ever been called to account by law for it we Can't remember it. We can't recall a cae even of an indictment of mob murder. But South Carolina, whatever may W said of some features of her social or political condition, puts the heavy hand of law on illegal combinations to punNli crime without law. It is well done, and she deserves all honor for leading the way in one of the most impor tant reforms of the social condition of this country. (let rive of your neighbor to take Sentinel and your own will be paid for. A QUESTION OF THE FUTURE. American business relations seem placed between the devil and the deep sea. One of the things needed was a closer approxima tion to profit, better and more regular rates, and a general appreciation of values by our railways. The recent compact of the trunk lines was thought to be a long step in the right direction. Rates were raised, stocks appreciated, and sijjns of activity were manifest in money centers. Rut here we encounter the other horn of the dilemma as freight rates are raised corn and wheat decline, as the profits of a rail way are adjusted to a fair living rate the slight margin on grain is destroyed, and what is gained by the operators of a railroad is lost to the producers of grain. The fact is apparent. Competition of other grain producing countries has reduced the price of grain, and in fact, many other commodities, so much that there is not a living profit in it for both the producer and the earner. t.reat lirttain requires alout lW,f"X, 0oo bushels of wheat more than she produces, and the United States could alone supply the whole of the excess without limiting her own requirements. But there are the States of South America, Austria. Russia, the States of North Africa, Autralia and India, who all have a surplus to aid in supplying this excels. France, Germany, Italy and Spain nearly supply their own requirements, and when they fail so to do, the deficit is small when compared with the total excess of production. Rritish buyers practically have the grain at their own price, which seems to be limited only by the costs of transportation Now, when a railroad, in order to induce a farmer to ship his grain, reduces the freight rate to a point where the farmer may reap a profit, the railroad is doing business at a loss. If the railroad exacts a rate that would iuaice the carriage profitable, the farmer is doing business at a loss. S far as the country at large is concerned, it makes no matter which way the loss comes; its results are equally disastrous. In fact, so far as tliese productions are concerned, the country would be no worse oft' if the crops were not marketed in "Europe, because the sum of the costs equals or exceeds the sum of the receipts, and the economy of a railroad and the economy of wheat production is reduced to interState necessities. Generally speaking, the New England States are the only ones w ho do not produce their own bjeadstuffs. which leaves but a very slight market for the West em surplus, and-only a slight business for the railroads to do. as measured by their capacity. The same result is apparent in several other staples, notably in cotton and iork, and their products, and it is less and less clear how or when this condition of things will improve. It would seem to us that the dissemination of these industries through so many sections of the world places an effectual check upon us again controlling the prices of these products, and it is altogether probable these industries w ill languish until the production is generally curtailed. But we have our railroads, our farms, our common roads, court-houses and other costly internal improvements, all built under a better and more profitable condition of things, that will not pay a profit on their costs at the present valuation of products Whether the products will raise to the level of a cost entailed by a previous condition of things, or whether the costly machinery engaged in producing and handling the pro ducts will shrink to the level of the present or even a future lower value, is a perplexing and anxious question. It is by no means confined to the United States. The cotton industry ot Manchester is paralyzed by the fabrics of Bombay and Lowell, and the silk industry of France is threatened by the pro ductions of the United States, of South Amer ica, India and China; while the development of all i3 retarded as the area of competition is increased, and as each locality becomes more and more independent of another lo cality. It is true within the United States. The Iron industries of Tennessee and Ala bama are threatening those of Pennsylvania, and the growth of manufacturing in the West is as much in opposition to the inter ests of New England as the latter were against those of Great Britain. The industries of the world are undergoing a chauge, and no oue is yet shrewd enough to tee how or when they will reach an equilibrium. Great quanties of labor and capital have been put into im provements; and taxes, insurance and the cost of maintenance must be male or euch Cscal iasUtwtiorw will become
bankrupt. Consumption must be increased
in come way, or the enormous productive capacity of civilized nations is worse thaa useless. Costa must be reduced in some way, for w e can not go on paying profits on railroads that cost twice their present value, or to capital worth far less than it cost to get, or eipect prot'.ts from farn s costing more than they can earn. The situation applies to all classes, and to all classes the end seems equally objure. RACE TALK AT THE SOUTH. The Sentinel is rejoiced at and fully in dorses the following truthful, seuible words of the Charleston News: "Unquestionably the colored people have made much progress intellectually, morally and in the acquisition of the goods of this world within the past twenty years, and there is no rea.-oa why that progress should not continue, and with relatively more rapid strides. The Government under which they live, and must live for generations to come, is wide enough and broad enough for harmonious co-existence of all races, creed ami classes, and each race has a part to ierform in the working out of the destinies of the collective nation." The idea that a newspaper has a higher mission than making a great politician out of a little demagogue, and that the press owes some allegiance to the commercial interests which support it. is gaining its way. An esteemed exchange that has been a faithful organ with it crank, always at the call of the self-seekinz party placehunters, finds it time to revolt against further use as a party tune grinder and decides that it will be a itcirzpajtcr in the following declaration of independence: Formerly it was supposed that a newspaper had no reason to exist except for olitical uses. Service to party and party managers was regarded as its natural function. It wa9 to be an "organ" first, and a newspaper, only in a limited and incidental way, afterward;. This idea of journalism is not yet wholly obsolete. Politicians and party leaders would like to maintain the servitude of the' press in the old way, and they will succeed to some extent in doing so, but only with journals of ;tn inferior i la. Strength in journalism comes from indejendeme. With independence and strength comes ability to serve the public. All of w hich has the right ring. That kind of independence will react hopefully upon poüticN und will shorten the dema gogue's jsras until he will be hedged be tween work and starvation. When that time conies the Sentinel favors joining all hands round in persuading him to starve. Get six subscribers for the Sentinel, retain land aend us m V. NOTES AND OPINIONS.

It is one of the greatest benefits of Cleve land's election that it ha not only freed Northern whites from their fears, of "Southern domination," but that it has also eman cipated Southern blacks, so that they are beginning to divide their votes between the parties like real freemen.

Atlanta Constitution. The New York Tribune, printed in a city where seamstresses get seven cents for making a shirt, is moved to high-tariff scorn against a Glasgow manufacturer, who pays girls fifty cents for fifty hours' work. Thf Boston Herald well says: "It is the greatest piece of liumbuggery and effrontery ever played upon the American people for the Republican leaders to ask for a return to power to look after the 'poor negroes.' Ex. Lisii railroad employes are frightfully overworkeil. Seventy hours a week is quite a common thing. A guard worked l!i? hours in twelve days, while an engine driver made lO-ri hours in one week; and one case is given in which a fireman actually worked thirteen days in a week. Bf.twees the Blaine men upon one side and the stalwarts upon the other, ready to stab their candidates in the back, the ltepublican party in the State of New York can hardly expect to win in another election until the generation now active in politics ha3 passed away. New York Times. Thf. Maquoketa (la.) Sentinel says: "More liquor was sold in Iowa last year by onethird than ever was sold any year before. There are more liquor sellers by a large Der cent- than have taken out Government licenses before, and some of the secret sellers are selling without Government license." IIox. Joitx P. St. John makes a reasonable prophecy when he declares that the Republican party will never win another national victory. But the reaon he gives, that "no party can live which burns its opponents in c-fligy for opinion's sake," does not quite cover the case. The trouble with the g. o. p. is that it is as rotten as sin, and has no living principle to sustain it. It has run its appointed course, as it predecessor, the Whig party, did. The Democratic party, which fought and survived Whiggery, will also survive Republicanism, because the spirit which animates it is the spirit of the Constitution, and so long as the Government lasts Democracy must last.

Portland, Me., Nov. 11. In regard to the Cape Elizabeth resurrection case, reported in yesterday's dispatches, meager particulars have been learned, although strenuous efforts have been made to trace young Dyer's parents. The family did live in Cape Elizabeth, but are now said to be in Deering, some miles from the city. The story of young Dyer's resurrection comes from Blanche Edwards, a domestic employed by narry Brown, an artist on. Danforth street. She affirms the truth of the story in every particular. She says that she attended the funeral in September, IS!: saw Dyer in his coffin; went in the procession to the Evergreen Cemetery, but did not see the coffin put In the grave. She wore mourning for the deceased until two weeks ago, when friends told her that Dyer was coming back. She was told that Dyer's mother had taken off her mourning Friday night. The parenta went secretly to the cemetery, dug up the coffin and took it home. They proceeded to open the coffin and found nothing in it. In a few moments Dyer appeared at the door and was greeted with rapture by his parents. Dyer came to see Blanche on Saturday night with his parents. He did not know her at first, and appeared strange. Mr. Brown's family saw the young man, and corroborated Blanche, as far as they knew. On Monday Blanche says that young Dyer, with two young doctors, came to see lier. Dyer said to the doctors: "You tell her all about it." The doctors then told her that they had Dyer under care for several months and cured him. One doctor was a friend of the family, ami was at the funeral. He said that he was impressed with the belief that Dyer was not dead, and after the funeral dug open the grave, took the body and worked on it, and after a long time obtained signs of life. He says the doctors' names are Harmon, of Albany, N. Y., and Foster, of New York. Blanche lias a sister who works at the Home for Aged Men in this city, who corroborates the story in every particular. The wuole truth can not be learned until Dyer himself and his parents are found, and it is imjossible to reach them at present. A Peculiar Case of Poisoning, Sax Francisco, Nov. 11. What has now the appearance of being n peculiar case of poisoning is beginning to attract public attention. Mrs. Cecilia Bowers, the wife of Dr. J. Milton Bowers, died on the night of November 1. Her life was insured in various organizations for $17,000 in favar other husband. It was given out that she died from an abscess of the liver. Hurried preparations were made for her burial, but before it took place an . unknown person called at the Coroner's office and stated reasons why he suspected the woman had been poisoned by persons interested in obtaining the insurance on her life. On the strength of further developement the husband was arrested. The stomach and intestines of Mrs. Bowers were placed m the hand3 of Dr. Johnston for an analysis. In his report at the Coroner's inquest'be states he has no hesitation in asserting that the cause of Mrs. Bowers' death was poisoning from phosphorus. Dr. Bowers treats the matter indifferently, and says he will have no difficulty ki exonerating himself from any suspicion of havingcaused his w ife's death. Tennessee Regulators at Work. Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 1C At midnight Saturday a band of regulators took Noah Carey and Susan Mayhew, both colored, from their cabins, and gave them a terrible beating. The mob numbered fifteen men, thirteen of whom carried small arms, wore gowns and had their faces concealed with masks. The other two were not disguised, and were provided with guns. The party marched to a portion of the town occupied by negroes bearing the name of Happy Hollow. On the way the men stopied at a cabin and forced two colored men to point out the dwellings of Carey and Mayhew, and those of several ex-convicts who had been discharged from the Penitentiary and w ere employed by the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company. On reaching Carey's house, the regulato took lüm out aaJ
pave him fifteen lashes. They then went to tbe woman. Mayhew's house and administered a like punishment to her. After warning her to leave Tracy City without delav, the band roused the ex-convicts from the'ir sleep and delivered to them the same message they had given to the woman, adding that death would be their iortion should they disregard the warning. As soon as they could take their departure, the ex-couvicts bade the town farewell. Th mob then separated, and so quietly was the nocturnal work done, that nothing was known of it for several hours. The ex-convicts had been regarde4l with suspicion, but the Ijiw and Order Commit tee had decided that thev could stay. It is not known what Carey or the woman had done.
Ward in Sinj Siu. New York, Nov. lt. Ward spent his third Sunday in Sing Sing Prison in an uneventful way. He followed out the daily prison routine, going to the chapel in the forenoon; after service he went to his cell with his day's rations under his arm. Dr. Barbour, the prison physician, says Ward is improving in strength and is not the broken-down person that some of the reporters have pictured him. He is employed in select in-j castings for the store contract. The work is light. He has made only one call upon the Doc tor since he has been there, and that was after he had been there a few da"s. He cotnElained of a lame back. The Doctor gaw im a plaster, and since then he has required no further treatment. Ward say he is beine treated well and has no complaint to make. Principal Keeper Connaughton say that Ward has seen no reinirter since he entered the prison. It was his secial request when he was admitted that no reporter be permitted to see him, and his request has been rigidly respected. He cats and sleeps well and the change in his mocle of life seems to come more natural to him. He is less awkward about his work and appears to to readilyadapt himself to the situation. The Wliet Crop. A cargo of wheat, raised in India, was sold in Ixmdon, September '22, for eighty-nine cents a bushel. This was three cents a bushel higher than the price in Chicago, and eight cents lower than the quotations in New York city. Samples of the India wheat were sent from london to Chicago. The India wheat was not coniilered e4iual in quality to the western-grown wheat of the United States. But it was wheat, and flour and bread could be produced from it, and very fair bread, too. Nearly :;oo,ioo,tioo bushels" of wheat were raied "in India the present year, and the iniportatians into Ensland and other countries from that source have greatly increased.

An Old Mine Caves in. Hazi.eton, pa.. Nov. 10. A great cave-in occurred Saturday over the old workings of the Laurel Hill mine. The hole made in the earth is beside the Lehigh Valley Railroad tracks and is 300 feet in diameter. Two railroad sidings and a dozen coal cars, together with a large dwelling house, went down. The occupant. of the house moved away several days ago, fearing a cave-in. The damage to the railroad tracks has been repaired and trains are running. It is feared, however, that there will be more caving in, as the ground for many yard around has large cracks and fissures and residents are moving away from the dangerous place.
