THE NEW YORK PHESS. Editorial Opinions of the Leading Journals Upon the Most Import ant Topics of the Hour. COMFII.KD EVERY DAT FCR EVENING TKLEXIRAPn. Spftin. From the Tribune. The latest accounts from !:pn:n, which ore to January 17, leave but little doubt that (General Prim had not met with that tmpport on which he relied for ihc success of his entci prlao. Still, the rostotutton ol tranquillity was not yet so complete as the official despatches of the Govt" rn ment day by day announced. Even at the date of our latest advices (January 17), a Madrid telegram announces that "some armed men had appeared in the vicinity of Kpus, in Catalonia," and that "the movements of the troops In that province ccntinne." It is announced that the Prime JlinlaUT has instructed the (ienerals who are pursuing Prim not to capture the latter, but to drive him into Portugal. The report, which scorns to ba well lounded, pave rise to the Btranpest rumors. The Queen as said to be In sympathy with Prim, and to refuse to sipn his deposition from his dig nity as Senator. It Is hardly necessary to Motu that all rumors of this kind are entirely unlrubt wrrtby The Portufnipce legislature do not like the project ol an Iberian kingdom, to be composed of a union between Portugal and Spain a pro ject whih n entertained by many Spanish Libe rals, and is believed to count also Prim nmoncr its supporters. On January 8, the Chamber of Representatives unanimously protested against tbetcheme. The Basis for a Friendly Settlement With England. From the Timet. The repott on reciprocity which has just ema nated from the Treasury Department, and of which we had a very imperfect synopsis by tele praph, Is a paper of far broader scope than we had anticipated. Instead of being merely a digest of formor treaties, or a summary of the mutual benefits accruing from the Convention ol 1804, we find that the report of Mr. McCiil loch's agent take a survey of the whole domain ol international policy. In helping us to a clear estimate of the trade of the adjacent Hiitmu Colonies, Mr. Derby boldly seizes the occasion to sucgeat that any new commercial compact with the neighboring provinces might well be utilized to brine to a friendly settlement the claims of the Uuitod Biates acainst (irciit Britain tor hOr violation ol her obligations as a neutral power daring this war. "It," says Mr. McCulloch's nirent, "Great Britain oesires to propitiate this country alter all that has occurred, would it uot be her true policy to cede to us a portion of her remote territories, valuable to us, but of little value to her?" In more specific terms, Mr. Derby sugats the cession to the United S'ates of British Columbia and Vancouver's Island. These colouies, he points out, are settled in preat part by Ameri cans, and while they are too remote from Eng land to be of any practical account to her, they would form useful and ultimately profitable adjuncts to our Pacific States. By the surrender of her sovereignty over tho-e portions of her dependencies on the Pacific which lie within the temperate zone, it is assumed that England miht find a solution ol the question of the Ala hama and other claims, "preferable to a specie payment, or reprisals for the ravages of her cruisers." There is doubtless something in this ingenious conception. If it has a weak side, let us sucaest that it lies in the fact that the proposed Atlantic Confederation of Colomics is inu udi-d ultimately to include within it both Kritisb, Columbia and Vancouver's island, and that to th'S end a conditional stile of tne wholu Of the Hudson Bay Company's territories to Canada was concluded in lOuglaml Iocs than a year ago. It may be, however, that the dele gates now in Washington are empowered to tieat fcr the surrender suggested by Mr. Derby, and that, as a consideration tor a renewal ot the Ite iprocity Treaty, we are not only to get the entire Island of San Juan, which has caused so much trouble, but two additional colonies and a thou sand odd miles ot additional coast on the Pacific. The precedent for sucli a surrender, on commer cial grounds, Mr. Derby Cuds in tie advice just tendered by England, to Austria, to give up Venice as the beet means of reducing the stand ing armies of Europe, and ol promoting interna tional trade. Were Mr. Derby's report not conceived in the most friendly spirit towards thoee who seek fur a continuance of the treaty, it w juld be unfair to attach so much importance to his proposal to readjust the balance of power ou tus continent. But, inasmuch as he puts in a good word tor the provinces and for provincial commerce as often as he offers one in behalf ot hi own country, it may be assumed that he has some knowledge of what would prove an acceptable basis of com promise. Indeed, he declares that "most ot the views taken in this report have been confirmed since it was written, by a conferei.ee with some of the most able and influential men In the provinces." These influential men, Mr. Derby subsequently indicates to be noue other than Minister of Canada. His outline ot a system of commercial leaisla tion, which shall be common to the United States, moreover indicates that he has confidence in the desire of the Provincial Delegates to make a very material surrender "f ibe privilege they have heretofore enjoyed in the making of their own taritfs. Tbrtueh all the twelve years ol this treaty, which terminates ou tlie'lTth oi March, they have gone on increasing the duties on almost every ari icle we cared to export. This enjoyment, we eatheriiom Mr. Derby's report, they are prepared to see curtailed to a most sig nificant extent. And if they agree, as it would appear this report contemplates, to withdraw their great staple, Iwirier, from the free list in the next convention, and have it taxed $1 per thousand, board measure, we should inter that the Provincial embassv has an unusually laree discretion. The point which will shinly come to be of most immediate interest, as these negotiations progress, will be the attitude and disposition of ihehriih Government. We could readllv be lieve that lor her own account, England would not stand in the way of any lair bargain for cedin? a ceitain amountof British-American ter ritory io the United States that is, provided we wanted to tut. But as 1-jng as Great Britain maintains colonies, pays tor their protection, spends her money ou them, spnds them Gov ernors, and performs generally the functions ol an imperial power towards 'a dependency, we take it she will regard with some jealousy any attempt on their purt to discriminate against her trade, in favor of any other nation. When the Colonial Legislatures set about a re vision cf their tnnil's wntcfi shall continue, or Seradventure increase the duties on the great ritisb. siuples, such as line cloth, etc., and which shall, at the same time, lower or perhaps abolish the duties oo the leading staples ot another country, there U apt, v.e tear, to Arise a clash ot interests and conflict ot authority. The question, it is true, is oue tor the colonists and the parent Government to settle between them selves; but we may ax well take nccount of the difficulties which enll lie in the path of recipro city, even if th's report lrora th Treasury u accepted by the delegat s as it stands Ten Ugly Question, Pertinent Even it low peitiuent. From the World. Borne years ago theie was a member of the House of Representatives from (what was then a State, but what it is now nobody knows, having, according to the Stovens-Samner duo .trine, committed 6ulcide) Tennessee, who was very much in the habit of asking questions of a character similar to the following, and ref isin THE DAILY EVEN IK G TELEGRAPH. rHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 18GG. iff epilations ol public money upon very demo cratic notions of public economy ru1 private integrity. That same State had, at a later day, another representative, who was also much given to such pertinent, or Impertinent, inqui ries. Neither Andrew Johnson nor Geortre V. Jones arc now In Congress, itud Tennessee ts tor bidden to send ottjer men like them. Por that State, as for the loolish virgins, there is a shut door; and therefore we venture to offer in Tiie World a lew questions from the homo of Jack ion and Johnson: I. By what right U a frigate of the United States Navy, or a transport heioncing to tho War Department, employed at public expense ior a pleasure trip cither for the health or amusement of the person or family oi a public oflicer who is paid a larce salary f II. Do civil officers who vo.vngo about in Government vessels receive their salaries while travelling at public expense hut not on public business? HI. Do the vessels of the navy, when used ns private yacht", Introduce cigars free of duty ? IV. By what authoilty do moraners of the Cabinet order "special cars" to bo sent on railroad routes for the special a'-commodatlou of themselves, their families, or Iriends? V. ATe such "speclulcnrs" paid for? If so, by whom If not, why not? VI. Is it becoming or proper for Cabinet Ministers receivinc lnro salaries, or lor members ol Congress receiving pay and "mileage," to ac cept or to solicit "tree-passes" over railroads or on teambonts 1 VII. II a member of Congress, or a Speaker of tho Houso, become an itinerant lecturer, does his pay as "Speaker" or "member" continue while absent Irom asliington? Does he travel on Ids "mileaire," the pay for his lectures, or on "lrec pacsesy" VIII. How loner will it be before mpmbern of Congress, or Cabinet Ministers, will expect that their " Iree passes,'' on railroad or steamboat lines include their families as well as them selves IX. When any of them travel in Government shits, are they'supTd ed with lood and liquor "Iree," as well as With lieo passage ? X. Is there any member ol Congress, in either House, with counure enough, and with skirts clean enough, to daro investigate, and obtain true, full, ami satisiactory answers to any or all ot these questions? Southern Claims lor War Damages A Wise Movement in Congress. From the JJtrald. The resolution of Mr. Delano, of Ohft, which was adopted by the House of Representatives on Tuesday Inst, involves a line of policy so essen tial to the sulvation of the Treasury from bank ruptcy and the country Irom a ruinous financial revulsion ns to be entitled to the special om ir.cndation of every loyal citizen through the length and breadth of the land. We refer to the resolution instructing the Committee on Claims, till otherwise ordered, to reject all claims refer, red to them for examination from citizens of any of the States lately in rebellion growing out of the desti notion or appropriation of or damnge to pioperty by the army or navy of the United Suites while engaged in suppressing the Re bellion. As was remarked by Mr. Delano, there is no obl'eataon on the part of the Government to pay for the damages by the ravages of the late war. Moreover, il it were agreed upon that loyal suf lerers should be indemnified it would be impos sible to draw the line between them and Rebels. On the question ot loyalty every Southern loser of property by the war could give some evidence in bis tavorby ex parte allidnvita.t Mr. Nibluck, Democrat, of Indiana, of the Committee, was under the impression that loyal citizens, as dis tinguished from Rebels in arms, outht to be indemnified; but, as the status of tho Southern States was not yet settled, the Committee would do well to defer any action in the promises. Mr. Ward, Republican, of New York, however, speaking ior the Committee, hit the nail upon the head in suggesUutr that the amouut of these Southern losses from the war, the condition of our linances, and the diilicinty of separating the loyalist from the traitor, admonished him not lo open the door that might double our national debt, bring on financial ruin, and perhaps repu diation end national disgrace. The Committee on Claims wero nccordinely insfructeu by the Ilous? 118 to DC to reject all Southern claims for war damages till otherwise ordered. TLc thirty-six members voting in the negative were doubtless the Democrats of the House, who, in tnis matter, as in the District Negro Suffrage hill, put the interests of the count ry behind the tactics of their party. What care they for the Administration, the national treasury, a financial collapse and repudiation, so that they continue to build up again the-ir old defunct Democratic party ? But we would still admonish them that so long as they adhere to this old game of thoir Democratic poity, so long they will be keist under foot. They must meet the demands of the crisis, regardless of their old party, or they w ill never o auj thing to wipe out their record ot the war. It is morally ceitain that national bankruptcy, repudiation, and financial and political chaos, will follow the experiment of compensating even lojal Southern men lor their losses trom the war. Mr. Senator Guthrie, of Kentucky, Secretary of the Treasury under poor Pierce, and possessing a good reputation as a financier, recently, in the Senate, put down the loRses of the South from the late Rebellion at the stu pendous figure of ten thousand millions of dol lars. This may seem incredible; but, including the Rebel expense ot the war in money, labor, and supplies; the Southern crops of cotton, sugar, rice, tobacco, etc., of lour yeare, ne glected, wasted, burned, or captured; the w hite able-bodied men of the South, k died and crippled; the four millions of Southern slaves set tree; the plantations laid waste; the ships, ; leainbosts, railways and rolling stock, cities, towns, villages, bouses, public buildings, facto ries, stores, foundtines, cotton gins and presses, mills, depots, bridges, fences, forests, timber and lumber, etc., destroyed, and horses, mules, cattle, sheep, and swine swept off, together with the losses ot Southern banks, corporations, and speculative investments depending on thu suc cess of Jeff. Davis, wo dare say that Mr. Senator Guthiie Is not far out of the way. But whether tics aggregate of Southern war losses is ten thousand or five thousand millions, we cannot touch it without running the danger of being swallowed in an unfathomable abyss ot bank ruptcy, corruption, condition and ruin. Suppose we begin with the compensation of loyal Southern men one precedent will lead to another, still widening the margin of liberalitv, until by tl.e pressure Congress and the treasury. he Government and the country will be over whelmed. A national debt of three thousand millions U as heavy a burden as we can lately carry. It must lo diminished before long, or even" this weicht may staugcr us. The House of Representatives, therefore, has acted wisely 'in regard to there Southern losses from the "war. Me ennnot touch them without danger of swamping. They belong to the schedule ot pro perty destroyid without insurance. They must be postponed to a more convenient season, and tnke their chauci s lor a shower of trold willi Kentucky, whun f he will bo paid for the otio hundred millions of negro property lost by Secretary Sewar J's rocluiuation of the a-jolitioh ot slavery.

Religions Intelligence. rOBKION. ! Scotland. Dr. Norman McLcod hai startled the good people of Scotland by a speech before the GltsBow Presbytery on the Sabbath question. He denies the continual ooiieationot the Fourth Commandment, and bases the Christian Sabbath upon the authority of the Apostles, derived from our Lord, but intended, be considers, to be lls tiupuished trom the Jewish, and observed in a method adapted to Chi istian liberty. Sunday Schools in Enaori. We have referred heretolore, in general terms, to the Hundar School work of the American and Foreign Chris tian Union of this city, In Italy nnd Germany, but Irom recent reports from both these coun tries, we 8re surprised at the cxtentiand large Fromise of this branch of missionary effort. In taly twenty-tlvo to thitty schools have been organized on the American plan, with a general conviction ol their great importance as means of progress. In Berlin theie are twelve Sab bath schools, with more than one hundred and fifty teachers and two thousand rive hundred scholars, and as a consequence of these, many schools are forming in different parts of Ger many with rapidity and succens. Although the oldest school is less than two years, Dr. Schatf thinks the institution minently' fitted to awakt-n a new lite in Germany. In Holland the work is beeun, and a Sabbath School Union and a child's paper established, and in Swiizeiland several laree schools aud a child's pniper have resulted from a lew weeks' labor. The London Sabbath School Union, a powerful body, ha offered to co-operate wtth the New lork Christian Union, and has already done much in thm direction. DOMESTIC. Coconino. Intelligence has been received of the arrival of tttree missionaries scut to Colorado by the American Home Missionary Society, and of the cordial reception by the people. Pknnies Count. A Women's Penny Society, in New Hampshire, reports that its receipts in sixty j cars amount to f G3,i3157, which is about one-iotirth of the whole amount contributed in the State to Home Missions. Methodist. It is stated that tl.e Methodists have now seventy-five churches in New York iu good working ortier. The New hngland Methodist Theological Seminary has been removed from Concord, N. II.. to the neighborhood of Boston. Roman Catholic Archbishop McCloskey has .just papointed tho Rev. Dr. M jGlynn to the pus torship of St. Stephen's Church, in New York, made vacant by the death of Rev. Dr. Cum mines. Dr. McGlynn is a native of New York, and is highly spoken of. Salt Lake City. We noticed, some time aeo, the establishment of a Congregational Church in Salt Lake City, by Rev. Mr. McLeod. Some doubts ol its success were lelt at first, but ac cording to recent accounts it is gaining ground. Mr. McLcod is an able man, a tine preacher, and is w inning favor daily. City Missions. The New York City Mission says there are 350 churches, chapels, and mis sions ol all kinds in the city, with accommo dations for 300,000 persons. There are about 64,b00 church members in all the Protestant churches, and 70,000 pupil? in their Sunday Schools. There is evidently a great work to be doi.e in the city evangelizaiiou, Congkkoational. At Boston, the Congrega tional Cnurches have united in earnest iu ex ploring and supplying the religious destitutions ot tin ir vicni'y. Rev. Mr. Carroll, of the South Church in Ne w Haven, in a funeral sermon last Sabbath, stated that the ent re amount expended by the late Gerard Hallock in the erection of that church and the support of tUe preaching theie was $119,000. Homh Mission. Deductiner New England, with its 03,000 square miles, and the Middle Slates, with their combined area of 101,000, from the 300.00U, the extent of our whole country, aud we have left 2,s:i3.000 square miles ot States nnd Tcniteries, more than three-fourths of which are ontnely missionary ground, and much ot the other lourth. This fact, with the desolations of the late war, calls for great efforts on the part of the churches to supply our owa country with religious teachings. Pkesi ytekiav. Late Richmond (Va.) advices represent the churches as enjoying an increased attendance, and a good degree of prosperity and religious interest. Drs. Hoge, Moore, and Read have overflowing houses. A great revival i in procrress at Wilmington, Del., particularly at the First Prcsbvteriau Church. in Chicago the churches are earnestly en gaged in revival services. Rev. Dr. Sunderland has been heartily wel comed br.ck to his chuich in Washington after his Pbtis mission. Baitist. A ludy missionary in St. Louis, sus tained by three gentlemen, at a salary of $.00 a year, has made m the last eleven months 20G8 visits, conversed with 783 persona on religion, given a large nttrnber of bibles, testaments, etc., nnd gathered many children into Sunday ScbooW. The Philadelphia Bapti-t Association has appointed a committee to devise a plan ior the eftiitdishment ot a "Baptist Home," where Bap tbt ministers and their widows, aud, so far as consistent, members of Baptist churches gene Tally, maytind a home when overtaken with povcrt, ace, and sickness.
