2 THE DAILY EVENING TELEGKAPII PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAF, AUGUST G, 1870. srziLxv or run rnnsa. Editorial Opinions of the Leading Journals upon Current Topics Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph- T'EKtliS OF OUU SUMMER RESORTS. From the K. 1'. Sun. Many persons among the thonsands who are now daily leaving the city for their nam-mf-r vacation will never return to it alive; and of thoRe who do not return, many will lose their lives through want of precaution agninnt the poculiar dangers of our summer resorts. There is at the large majority of watering place hotels a peril to which ladies in par ticular are exposed that of being burned to death. Where there is no gas, either can dles or kerosene lamps are usually the means of light; and the incautions use of these often leads to the most terrible results. Young ladies, in preparing for a ball or some other evening entertainment, not unfrerjaontly place the light on the floor or on a low stand, to enable them the better to nee while dress ing. The thin and airy material of a summer gown is swept by hasty or careless move ments into the flame. Firmness and pre sence of mind are almost always wanting on the part of those who witness the occurrence. The unfortunate girl, lacking all intelligent aid or guidance, wildly rushes forth into the moving air she should avoid, and the flames enveloping her are fanned by it and blaze on until bhe falls a helpless victim, soon to die an agonizing death. One has only to read the newspapers to know how often such an accident occurs. "We have already noted several this summer, and we can recall many cases of a like nature in past yearB. Near Providence, last year, at a pleasant little resort on Narragansett Bay, a charming young lady lost her life under almostithe identical circumstances we have mentioned; and the tragedy was accompanied by evidenco of a heartlessness in the exist ence of which it is difnoult to believe. The inmates of the house, together with those personB from the other places in the vicinity who had come there to the dance, went on vilh the ball, while, as they knew, the poor girl, in a room not far from them, lay rapidly breathing away her life. Perhaps the greatest peril to which, in their summer vacation, young men are liable, is death by drowning. Naturally thi3 danger is greatest at seaside resorts; although at such places the means and appliances likely to be at hand for saving drowning persons aro always greater than on inland waters. But in many of these drowning aocidents an ob scure agent, of which little is likely to be said, plays an important part. Take, for example, a large yachting party. The littlo squadron is at anchor at one of the numerous convenient harbors in the neigh borhood of Now York. Balls are given at the hotels of the place in honor of the yachts men. The summer boarders flock to the vessels during the day, and perhaps take short seaward excursions in them. During all this festivity and enjoyment a good deal of wine is consumed; and possibly even stronger stimulants are tasted. And when a number of these young fellows go swimming, and in some inexplicable way one of them is sud denly drawn beneath the water and drowned, perhaps pulling under another with him as he sinks, every one speaks of the cramp, but no one says anything about the glass of whisky vhich ho drank just before he went in. Is there one of the party who does not think of it? It is unquestionably true that a large pro portion of accidents similar to that which we have described are due to the use of stimu lating drinks. Many a mother has seen her son brought home dead, and has never known what was the true cause of his sudden death. She ascribes it all to inexplicable fate, and is spared the terrible conjecture of the truth. The horse runs away and his driver is killed; the pleasure boat is capsized and one of the party drowned; or some one of the thousand conceivable accidents occurs and results in death, which is seldom attributed to the right cause. And the danger attendant upon the use of such stimulants is nowhere greater than at the summer resorts, which are fre quented only for pleasure, and where young men are apt to be far more reckleas thaa at home. Let those who are leaving town, then, re flect on these dangers, and the many others which will suggest themselves, before they start; and let them steadfastly resolve to guard against them. THE EUROPEAN PROBLEM. From the A. T. Herald. When, in 1847, the great bell of St. Peter's rang out the summons of Rome to defend the borders of her dominion in the Papal States against the invading Austrians, then ad vancing; into Bologna, it sounded the first signal in these modern times of Italian na tionality and independence. This was the work of Pius IX, and from city to city, throughout the Peninsula, the summons ran until a great nation, awakened from its slum bers of centuries, reappeared upon the soene at the word of its leader in arts as in arms, and began to revive the glories of the past. The whole werld received this great move ment with acclamation the era of good feeling was revived, the old affection sprang up again in hearts that long had been estranged, and blessings were invoked upon the head of Pio Nono in lands hither and be yond the seas, where the title of the Popes and of their primacy had been opposed for bundreds of years. And why was thin ? Shall we attempt to answer? Because and we offer the idea with deference the people discovered in the head of a great Christian Church one who, in championing his own nationality against a power that then seemed overwhelming, also championed their cause. Is the cause of nationality involved in this fearful contest mst opening between t rance and Germaav ? If so, whose nationality is assailed ? Does any one avow a design or an endeavor to straiten France in any or in all things that she may do to consolidate her strength, to conhrm her position as a great power, and to spread abroad through all the world the influence of her arts and the amenities of her refined and beautiful civilization ? If any there be we pause for a reply. We are 'told that the Prince of Ilohenzollern's caudidtt- ture was a menace and a danger to France. We have the right to ask in what ? He is nearly allied in kindred blood to the house of the ruling French dynasty, and in religion he is entirely in harmony with the peculiar requirements of French policy. Is not the matter, then, narrowed down to dynastio and national jealousy? And if so, what have the people, the great, struggling, Buffering peo pie of Europe and the world, to do with the uuarrel ? We greatly admire and respect the French people and French history, and we reoognize in JNapoieoa m a monarcu wno nas aone more for the prosperity and glory of his empire than any of his predecessors, not excepting even him who founded the dynasty and gave his name to it. Bat in this contest we must recall him and the gallant people who no enthusiastically follow his standard to the eternal principles of justice. France has revelled in glory; her standard has made the tour of the world; the nations look to her for liberty and not for enslavement; V Empire e'est la poix was a pledge and a pro mise given; the idea goes back to the tenets which should guide the centre and the head of the Christian Church and its self-assumed or chosen champion. If this view be correct and we offer it as a journalist comprehend ing the solemnity of our mission it is for France, as the exponent of the Christian faith for th6 majority of its adherents, to ar rest the tide of war and havoc and to hold out the olive branch of poace. This is the delay and this is the situation. We care nothing for the rumors of war that have reached us thus far. The reluctance to engage on either side reveals the conscious ness of an uncertain cause. What more splendid or glorious opportunity for a truly great nation that has stepped into the arena, thrown down the gauntlet and exhibited the tremendous resources at her disposal, than to pay, even in the eleventh hour, "Let us prove that we are truly great let us have peace! " A FEW FRIENDLY WORDS TO THE SOUTH. From they. V. World. We are not such novices as to be unaware that people who volunteer advice are not likely to be repaid with thanks. We also understand that it is not quite in accordance with the time-honored principles of the De mocratic party for the people of one State or class of States to counsel the people of another State or class of States respecting the manage ment of their internal concerns. We never theless feel impelled to ask the attention of our Southern brethren to a few words of truth and soberness. The oppressive domination under which the South sutlers is a domination from with out, and there is no reasonable hope of re dress except by relief from external tyranny. if the boutu possessed freedom of internal action, unasked advice would indeed be in trusive and impertinent. But that section can be relieved from the incubus of Federal domination only by Democratic victories in the North; and this is a valid apology for the ndvice we presume to offer. A9 the South needs our aid, it must not Bpurn our friendly counsel. From 18ti() down to the present time manv leading minds in the South have been afflicted with political blindness. It was a supreme act of political folly to split the Charleston Convention by the lamentable schism which brought two Democratic candidates Douglas and Breckinridge into the field against Lin coln and secured his first election. The Northern Democrats who abetted that schism were Bycophants of the South, not real friends. Prominent among them were Ben Butler, who promptly deserted to theRidi cals; Daniel S. Dickinson, who took office under Mr. Lincoln; Caleb Cashing, who has been the paia counsel of successive Radical administrations; and John A. Dix, the sub missive tool of Lincoln and Seward in shut ting up the offices of Democratio newspapers These are specimens. The supporters of Mr. Douglas, on the other hand, pitched their professions of friendship in a lower key, but nave maintained mom to the present hour. If Mr. Douglas had been elected, we should have had no civU war, and the South would have been exempt from its de plorable train of consequences. The wisdom of Douglas consisted in his correct apprecia tion of the tone and temper of the Northern peor le. He saw that the safety of the South depended on a strong Northern alliance, and that such an alliance was practicable only on a oasis ot moderation. What was true in 18(i0 is trebly true now, and when the North has fctill greater weight and preponderance: when the radicals control every department of the Ueneral Government, and a large ma jority of the State governments. The South can be relieved only by Northern Demooratio intervention, and Northern Democrats may claim to understand the publio sentiment of this Eection better than our impracticable brethren. Unless they will permit us to act upon our better knowledge of the situation. they must resign themselves to the tender mercies of radical domination. We tell them, therefore, in all candor and plainness, that . they only rivet their chains by further opposition to negro suffrage. It is not by negro votes that they are op pressed, nut oy wnite votes, it is vain for them to inscribe on their political banners that they are a "white man s party so Ions as their tyrants consist of a Congress eleoted by white votes. Negro sun rage is the result of a white movement. The negroes did not ask for suu rage till tne white radicals put it into their heads. The' negroes would vote rightly enough, if the white radicals did not mislead and deceive them. The infamous reconstruction laws were passed by a Con gress in which the South were not repre sented at all; by a Congress, therefore, which was wholly elected by white constituents, it is not by negroes that the South is oppressed, but by white men; its most dangerous enemies are the white radicals of the North; and it is ridiculous to expect redress from "a white man's party," when a party of white men are the authors of all the mischief. Is Grant a negro? Is Holden a negro ? Was old Thad. Stevens a negro, or eleoted by negro constituents ? Has not Europe groaned for ages under priestly craft and kingly tyranny, without a negro among, all her oppressors ? Are the English oppressors of Ireland negroes ? Was Poland dismembered by negroes ? Is Cuba held in subjeotion by a nation of negroes ? Unfortunately, a great part of human history consists of recitals .of white tyranny and oppression: and nothing could be more preposterous than to expect fnatlia fpnm "a mkitA ... . 1 " 1U . j unb.uu . . v u nunc uiau a iui ljt J LX tuts sole grouna mat its members are white. What the South needs to be rescued from is the domination of the white radical party of the North which has controlled Congress for ten years. The Southern people would have no difficulty .in managing the negroes if they were freed from white radical interfer ence exerted through the cederal Govern ment. In North Carolina, it is Holden's martial law backed by Grant's bayonets that keeps the State under radical control. In Georgia the radicals dare not hazard an elec tion, and the Legislature is passing an aoL under color of Congressional authority, to continue the present radical ofti oars in an. thority beyond the term for which they were chosen. It is not negro voting, but outside Federal pressure, that is the unmanageable element in Southern politics. The only means of relief is a political revolution in the North, and Southern Democrats mast concede that our opportunities for knowing the North are better than theirs.' We ask the Southern Democrats to reoog nize the fact that the North is the real battle ground of political freedom for their section. Here, where the victory is to be won, if won at all, we have no negro voters worth naming. It is a contest between two parties of white men, and a perpetuation of the old quarrel about the rights of the negro only strengthens the enemy. The negro question is the only cne on which the radical party agree; it is their only principle of cohesion, the surest way to prevent the disintegration of the Republican party, is to keep that question alive and continue to force it upon the country as a political issue. The Democrats can become a majority only by drawing off some llepnoncan votes; but on the negro issue the Republican party can easily hold its own, and so long as it retains the control of Congress there can be no freedom in the South. If that section will beed the timely advice given in the Demo cratic Congressional address, and drop 'dead Issues," we can easily revolutionize the lower branch of CongTeBS in this year's eleo t'ons, now cloae at hand. We ask the South ern Democrats, both for their sake and for ours, to put no obstacle in the way of our achieving this victory. When the lederal Government is once more in Demooratio hands, we are quite willing they should manage their local politics in their own way, and will not then intrude upon them any un welcome advice. DICKENS AND VICTORIA. From the N. V. Tribune. One of our contemporaries publishes an ac count of Mr. Dickens' intercourse with royalty. giving as full a description ot nis last inter view with the Queen as though the reporter I ad been furnished with private quarters be hind the back door: "During the long inter view,'' we are told, "Mr. Dickens remained half kneeling on the sofa, while the Queen slood." We are afraid this most willing of reporters nas drawn upon nis imagination for bis facts, and that his imagination has ex tracted its Yankee ideas of royalty from MM her Goose or Lothair, in which queens and duchesses wear their sceptres and straw berry leaves, in or out of bed, as faithfully as Captain Cuttle his tarpaulin hat. Is the reporter sure that motherly Mrs. victoria is not Berved by captive princes on bended knee, and does not take a morning bath in infants' blood, as is recorded of some of her ancestors? Why did he not describe Mr. Dickens as flat on the carpet, shaking himself in and out, according to Chinese etiquette ? The picture would have been more effective, and quite as probable. Majesty, whether wisely or not, is being fast stripped of its externals in England; that tho old riddle is not fulfilled, and that it is not thereby left "a jest, is owing more to the respect for the personal character of the Queen, than any undue appreciation of her rank or its insignia. If Mr. Dickens was invited to the palace in order that Victoria might do him honor and present him with her book, she certainly did not leave him kneeling on a sofa, like a f o 1 going to roost, but received him as simply as any well-bred woman would receive a well- bred man to whom she wished to show hospi tality and kindness. Nothing.by the way, more clearly marks the increasing disappearance of this old subser viency to rank in England than the Bigniucant contract of the ceremonies attendant upon Dickens' burial and that of some other inter ments occurring about the same time. Lord Clarendon died a good man and able, who had played not unsuccessfully a role in the foremost line of actors in the national his tory; a peer among peers, so predominant was his rank among all the facts that con cerned him in his own eyes and those who surrounded him; "a noble," says the Review. "who held inflexibly to the creed in which so few believe in the present day, that the desti nies of nations are shaped by a few well-born and well-bred individuals." Perhaps more than any other man in England he was a type of the highest caste, the aristocrat, thoroughbred, and thoroughly believing in his own order. He was interred with the state befitting such rank. Once being dead and bnried, however, death, as usual, pricked the bubble of his name, and it3 glitter and factitious propor tion speedily collapsed and disappeared. He was weighed and labelled most critically, per haps, by the press of his own party, rated as any ordinary man -would be by ordinary men, damned with praise so faint as to be scarcely audible Another peer, the son of one of the oldest houses in England, dying about the same time under a criminal charge, is, whether innocent or not, hurried to the grave, the hearse followed by a single car riage. Dickens, humbly born, the object of whose life had been to elevate the poor and decry rank, was buried as a man of the people. The simplicity of his funeral touched us all. But they made room for him among the kings and rulers of the nation. Thousands of mourn ers came that day to look in at his grave and pass silently away. The sexton, coming at night to fill the pit, found it level with the floor with flowers, not costly, wholesale tributes such as money would buy, but single blossoms, each cast in by a loving hand, and the tribute of a heart which he had made better and brighter. No matter whether the government' be a republio or a monarchy, the people choose their own rulers after all, and pay to them only allegianoe. THE MYSTERY YET UNSOLVED. From the S. F. Timet. The coroner's investigation contri buted little to the solution of the mystery which still enshrouds the Nathan murder; but it threw some additional light upon points that have been controverted, upset some stories that have been industriously cir culated, and, to a certain extent, cleared the way for the more extensive inquiry which has yet to come. . First, as to the two carpenters who were at work in the house on the day preoeding the murder. Both seem completely absolved from suspicion. They fully explain their whereabouts, verify their statements clearly, and pass unscathed through a very searching investigation. Their testimony is in other respects interesting. The early statements in regard to the ease with which, daring the daytime, ingress and egress could be effected unobserved, are confirmed. There seems, in deed, to have been, an inexplicable remiss ness in this respect on the part of those charged with the nafe keeping of the house. And, entrance once effected, the facilities for concealment were unusually great. Coal bins down stairs, closets and a task upstairs, were available without difficulty. These witnesses never saw in any part of the house the iron "dog with which the murder is supposed to have been effected. The allega tion that it .had been used some time pre vious by ship carpenters who were employed to caulk the stable floor is disproved. Yet more prevalent rumors respecting Mr. Washington Nathan are corrected by the tes timony of the patrolman, whom the sons, Frederick and Washington, jointly called after the discovery of the murder. They were together upon the door-steps at the time both undressed. The socks of one were blood-stained, and his shirt-front was largely smeared with blood. But it was Frederick, not Washington, whose socks and Bhirt were thus stained. So far as the police man saw, Washington was without spot or Main. We do not adduce the fact to transfer from one brother to the other the " horrible (suspicion which sensation-mongers have per sistently cultivated, but to correct an almost universal misapprehension upon a point con cerning which there has been believed to be no room for doubt. A suggestive fact, now for the first time stated, is that the bloody foot-prints which formed so distinct a track down stairs and across the marble floor of the hall to the front door all led one way. There were no foot-steps tending rip-stairs, or elsewhere than towards the door. Ihe stories about distinct finger-marks, or other traces of blood here and there, are now pronounced fiction. The door itself was closed n few seconds before the patrolman was called in. He had just passed the door, and saw that it was shut. One of the sons the officer cannot say which seems to have bad a differnct opinion, which, however, he did not attempt to maintain against the policeman's positive statement. The same officer passed the house at lj, and again at 4 on the same morning, and on both occa sions having tried the door, as required by the rules of the force, found it fast. Tbrco hours, it will be observed, elapsed between the two periods at which the officer passed the house. The extent of his beat made more frequent passing-by impossible. The circumstance strikingly exemplifies the inadequacy of the present force to meet the obvious wants of the city. A locality that for three consecutive hours, at the most criti cal part of the night, is without the visits of a policeman, affords inviting ground for bur glar or assassin. The Coroner has still before him the most essential features of his inquiry. These he must scrutinize and expose with great care, and, withal, fearless impartiality, or his work will be held to be undone. It is to be re gretted that on adjournment of the inquiry until Monday has been rendered necessary, for certainly much very important evidence is even now available. The sooner all the facts of the case are made known the better. Up to this moment the official contributions to the stock of positive knowledge upon the shocking subject have been scanty and inconclusive. SPECIAL. NOTICES.
