The Crisis In Huron".
Thb dream of Vom Bismark is devilopint'. Out
of the theft of two insisnlficant province he
has made a cause, and I matin? tbut cause a
great one. Bchleswitr Holatcln is the pretext
for a national aesrandizement such as bus not
been manifested since the career of the flr.it
Napolkon closed. Prussia, with a puppet tor
Kaiser, has a mighty man for Prime Minister.
Bismark, though personally and politically a
wicked man, is a great genius; and, as he can
never be Emperor, it is fair to suppose t bathe
Is a perfect patriot, since he makes no eiTort or
exertion that docs not exalt Prussia among the
nations. Thus, while his people so despite Von
Bishabk as to even openly wish for his assasl
aation, they (suddenly blinded by the glory of
successful military achievements! have been
forced into adulation and adoration for the
Man of Blood and Iron." There is another
cause for this revolution in popular lech og. It
lies in the discovery of Bismabk's scheme the
elevation of the Imbecile Wilhilm of Prussia
to the position ot Emperor of Germany.
No one appreciates this more fully than Napo
leo III, and although possibly too late, he is
going to make an attempt to thwart the design.
If he succeeds Bismark will lull, but his ereat
w.ik will live in the brightest pages of history.
Bismark wants but three empires on the conti
nent of Europe France, Germany, Russia. To
secure this Austria must be crushed, and Bis
mark cries "Down with the Huns !'' Thus tar
the success ot the Prussians has been wonderful.
Sudowa has been made the decisive battle of a
short and sham campaign, and has not only re
sulted in securing to Prussia her demands, bat
has so terrified Kbancis Joskph that he sues for
peace, and asks (or the kind otiices of a neutral
power. To show bis honesty in the matter he
pledges Venetia to France as a retainer fee.
The negotiations lor an armistice thus brought
about have been positively refused by Prussia,
and only conditionally listened to by Italy. It
is easy to see that any offer will be refused by
Bismark now t bat he is flushed with victory;
and it is doubtful it even Napoleon or Alexan
der oar secure the nationality of Austria, espe
cially 89 Prince Frederick Charles 1b now
in Prague, and pushing on to Vienna. Nothing
6hort of armed intervention by France caa save
Aunrirt, and that may come too late.
Should tbo Prussians succeed in their design,
Napoleon will hesitate before setting his squad
rons in the field agaiust Wilhelm at once, and
it will be more like the "great ninn and great
rascal," to endeavor to tieleat Von Bismark at
diplomacy.
The most ordinary mind, in absorbing and
weighing these facts, will observe that there is
in them a strong indication of a general conti
nental war, in which England, as the cat9paw of
Napoleon, must assist A great empire, and the
balance of power in Europe, will represent the
chesnuta which Napoleon and Bibmark will de
sire to have withdrawn irom the flames. All
we need wish for is that some Sudowa may be
speedily reached to settle the question for this
century.
The Peipetuity and Power ot the Itcpub
lican Party.
Tfltr who solace themselves with the idea that
the Republican party in this country has accom
plished its missionjand is about to pass away,
are destined to disappointment. The perpetuity,
as well as the existence of parties, depends
n Don the fact that they are tho organs of ideas.
Bo long as the ideas remain full of lite and
power, the parties which are built upon them
will maintain vitality and vigor. Now, the Re
publican party in this country Is based upon
the fundamental Ideas of a republican form of
goverment. It has always made the immortal
Declaration of Independence the very charter
of its existence. Its distinctive principles are
just those which separate true democracy from
all forms of aristocracy. It believes in the equal
rights of all the people, a? opposed to the special
privileges ot claaes.
The Republican party is the only organ of these
principles in America. The self-styled, and
falsely styled, Democratic party is the representa
tive ot the ideas of privilege and caste, as
opposed to equality and universality. It does
not believe in the peoj-le, but only in certain
favored portions of the people. It does not
believe In the equal rights of all, but merely in
the equal rights of the governing classes. Its
argument against equal rights in the United
States aie dran frm the hoary aruiorie3 of
despotism and aristocracy in the Old World.
The Republican party spraug into being
because existing organizations had ceased to re
present the vital principles of republican govern
ment. Both tho Whig and Democratic parties
had become corrupted by the slave power.
They had ceased to be organs through which
the true democratic sentiment ot the country
could find expression and exercise power.
It is sometimes assumed that the Republican
party was organized merely to resist the spread
f slavery into the Territories; but this is a mis
take The Republican party was a neoessarv
outgrowth of republican ideas in the minds of
the people. It resistea tne extension oi siaver y
into the Territories Lecaase that was, at the
time, the debatable ground, tho field of conflict,
. noint at issue, between itself and Its sntago-
Hist. But It could not possibly have rested
there. Slavery itself would have remained, even
had its extension been renaereu uie.
So now, too, it Js sometimes assumed that
Inasmuch as chattel slavery is vrthrown,
tho work of the Republican party u accom
plished. Not at all. The idea of equal
rights is the fundamental Idea f the Re"
publican party, as it is ot our form ot
government. The work of the Republican party
will not have been accomplished until that Idea
Is fully realized In the laws and institutions of
our country. Chattel slavery was only a gross
loim oi violating that idea. There is no chattel
slavery in Great Britain; yet is there no work
there for that liberal organization which corres
ponds to our Repub'ican party?
The mission of the Republican parly Is' to
realize the fundamental American idia of equal
riphts. If that Ilea Is true if it has in it the
elements of life if it is destined to power and
perpetuity so is the Republican party. The
destiny of that great organization is bound up
in the destiny oi its fundamental principles.
The Sponsors and Parents Quirrel Over
the Child.
The Democratic sponsors of the Philadelphia
Convention are beginuinir to come into conflict
with the parents ol the child. It is a hard
matter tor oil ana water to mix, and it is Just us
hard for Raymond and Thublow Weed to be
fifjhting side by side with Vallandioham and
Pendleton. Consequently, the limes desires to
have some restrictive test applied -ome requi
site that the members should be loyal, or at
liwt not open traitors. It bas timidly ventured
to make Buch a suggestion, but the sponsors
have crushed such an idea in the bud. The
god-pnrenls, the New York Vai'y Mem and the
New York World, to-day take Raymond to task
or daring to give any suggestion, and plainly
indicate that, unless some Bteps be speedily
taken by him to retrace his path, he will be
excluded irom that body all togelber. It must,
be a comforting threat to one who has left
friends and party, as Raymond has, in orier to
fellow new god9.
The Mews thus informs him that it and not
he is the head and ruler of the Convention:
"Mr. Raymond endeavored to exclude these
irom tlie Convention by interpreting tiie call as
addressed only to conservative Republicans, and
to such Souttiern Unionists as had remained
loyal to the Federal Government throughout the
wnr. But the movement bad already gained
such strength, that its managers perceived that
success was not dependent upoa the support of
jnr. IvAYMOND ana tne or ot any other
nian or lournal. Knowing this tact, the Times
again come out in favor ot the Convention, but
true to its policy, it Is still trying to apply tests of
admission which are not mentioned in the call,
and whicn the oeople, the conservative masses ot
the country, who have njw taken control of the
Convention, will not permit Mr,4 Raymond or
any body else to apply. The Times no sv proposes
to admit every Southern delceate who will state
that he 'did not voluntarily bear arms against
the National Government;' or it is willing to
admit those who have been pardoned by the
President; hut it still insists that no Northern
Kepi emulative snail be ununited who was not a
'loyal Union man during the war.' The point
we mane is that the Tim has no risht or po cr
to make any test whatever; and that it must
suppoit thp Convention under the call as it was
issued and as it stnnos. rue only tiling which
f ives us any anxiety is the apprehension that
lr. Raymond will disturb the harmony of the
Convention, it he shall get into it, bv continuing
these mischievous, tboueh fruitless, efforts to
prevent its complete success."
The World also does not exhibit any mo lusty
in the expression of its sentiments on this sub
ject:
"The Philadelphia Convention isano-Dirtv
convention. It cannot, therefore, mate any
party tests the standard of admission. If u
were a Democratic convention, ivir. eunando
Wood would have to cool his heels outside
the door as he did at Chicago, as he has done
at Albany tor many a year. If it were a
democratic Convention. Mr. Bknjamin Wood.
who in the Daily Metos opposed tbe can
didate? of the Democratic party in the last
national election, in the last State e!e3tion, in
tbe last city election, and who is a straightfor
ward man as well as a modest one, would
never think ot asking admission. If it were
a Republican Convention, we suppose that
to-dav, no man who said, as Mr. Sbward did,
'tne Union cannot be maintained Dy torce,' that
'a Union of force was a depotism,' that 'he did
not know what the Union would be worth if
saved by the use ot the sword,' could be ad
mitted; but if that were pardoned, his prefer
ence (since he is hopeless now of the Presi
dency) lor the Premiership of two administra
tions' over fidelity to his party and the seclusion
of Auburn, would certainly exclude him. But
party tests do not apply to a no-party conven
tion, and it Mr. kkknando wood or Mr.
Seward present themselves at Philadelphia,
tbus avowing their nccordince witn the
objects of the call, and are duly elected to
represent anybody, no test will exclule
them which will not empty the Convention. It
is, thereiore, as much out of place for Mr. Weed
to reluse to sit in the Convention alongside of
Mr. Pendleton for his Copperbeadism, as it
would be tor Mr. Pendleton to refuse to sit
alongside Mr. Weed because he always de
nounces radicals, and then votes with them, or
because, 'corrupting Legislatures, he makes alt
good government impossible,' or because lie is
six teet high, or for any other inappropriate
reason. Has he been duly elected to represent
any district? does he approve tbo call? It yea,
then he must admitted; If nay, then he must be
excluded."
Confirmations Nominations Rejections,
The Senate, in executive session, got over a
larger number of nominations than have
been acted upon for several weeks belore. The
most important case was the confirmation ot
J udge Stansbuby, ot Ohio, as Attorney-General.
The Judge is a man of great legal ability, au
Intellectual giant, If rumor cau be trusted, and
will, without doubt, fullil with great efliciency
the duties of first law officer of tbe land.
The nomination of General John A. Dix as
Minister to the Hague Is an excellent one. General
Dix is a War Democrat, and has a tine reputa
tion. Whether the Senate thinks him fitted for
the post so important in the diplomatic world
remains to be seen.
General W. W. Holden, ot North Carolina,
was rejected. It is generally understood that
his early connection with the Rebellion was the
cause. TLe Senate wisely doubted the propriety
or rewarding proseiyis oi snort standing in tj
party.
Lafayette College. This week is the com
mencement season of many of our first col
leges, and among them we understand that
Lafayette intends to stand prominently forth, on
account of the completeness and character of
her cercmonios. The college, &ince the accession
ot Dr. W. C. Cattell to the Prosidenoy, bis
prospered beyond all precedent. It has secured
a large endowment, and has added not only to
its building, its faculty, and its curriculum, but
also to the accommodations for its students.
To-morrow the introduction and inauguration
of the Pardee ScientiQo Course takes place. All
friends of education will re)o'ce to hear that the
venerable instructress is once more in a condi
tion to extend her Influence still further in aid
of the cause of Christianity aud airauceaieat.
Tub Board or Hhaltr at Work. Yesterdy,
according to the published reports, the Board of 1
Health wet out on a tour of Inspection, an 1 cloed
p several streets beeaune of their nlth and
crowded condition. This action of tbe Hoard Is
eminently proper. When an rpi levnic is threaten
ing us, it not already ex'stlng In our midst,
every wL-e precaution should be taken. To the
physicians who compose the Board Is er. trusted
all needful authority, and oa them will fall the
responsibility if any duty is left undone. We
earnestly hope that this Is but the flMt of a ncrles
of examinations which will lenult In tbe total
purification of those parts ot our aiunicipality a
visit to which is sufficient to superinduce some
triffhtful disease.

1504: 12 M., 1502: 1 P. M 15u j.
The attention of those interested is called to
the notice ot a meetinsof the Willow Glen Petro
leum Company, which will be tound in our
advertising columns.
The New York lribum this morning 8879;
"Money is more abundant, and trom the pro
ceeds of one-eur certificates banks are supplied
with more curreucv than cun be readily used, at
5 per cent. The bank statemeut ?ho-s a de
crease of loans ot $3,108,410, ol specie $1,591,537,
and 01 circulation ot $225,1;)2. The deposits are
at $5,859,035, ami the lcgul-tenders are at
$4,938,015. In commercial rmner there is no
material change. Best to good names sell at 5
0 per cent.
"In the case of the Kentucky Marine and Fire
Insurance Company against the Security Fire
Insurance Company, the defendants demurred
to the petition on the ground that it set forth au
oral contract ot Insurance, and that the plaintiffs,
under their charter, bad no power to make such
kind of contracts. Chancellor Pittlo decided
that oral contracts of insurance were legal and
binding, and that there was nothing in tbe char
ter of the plaiL tiff's nrohibitine them from making
them, and that sucli a contract gave the plaintiffs
the right to protect themselves from loss by re
insuring with the defendants, and, therefore,
overruled the demurrer to the petition, to which
the defendants excepted, and then tiled their
answer."
The New York limes this morning says:
"The bank statement points to increased ease
in the money market. The loans have fallen off
in consequence of the reimoursement of the one
year Treasury certificates by the Government,
und the legal-tender notes on hand have gone
up nesrly five millions. The specie deposits tall
off $1,591,000, and the cuirency deposits gain
$7,450,000, making the ne. increase on tbe
general line of deposits, $5,859,000. Some of
the leading brokeis are again otl'erinr mouev on
call to day at 4 per cen,., and the prevailing
rate, so tar as money is wanted at all on stocks,
is about 5 per cent. Prime short paper is 5
6 per c(.nt. per annum. The stock exchange
was inactive to-day, including Government secu
rities, which adds to the d illness and cheap
rates of money."
The Cincinnati Gazette says of financial
aflaiis in that quarter:
"Exchange was a shade weaker a?ain to-day,
and the improvement noticed yesterday was
almost entirely lost. We quote 1-10 discount
buying and pal selling. There were some trans
actions at Lfitty discount buying, and the same
selling, but these were exceptional. The money
market does not undergo any material change.
Currency has been coming in from the East,
and sparingly, through mercantile channels,
trom the interior; but it is sent quite as rapidly
into the country, partly in payment for bills
drawn against wool shipments, and partly in
exchange for Government securities, so that
there is no accumulation of balances in the
bunds of bankers, and the means are therefore
no more than sufficient to meet a moderate de
mand tor discounts. This causes the market to
work close, but at the same time holders of
good paper experience no difficulty in having
necessary wants supplied at rates within the
ranee of 8(:12per cent. 10 being a fair quota
tion for acceptable names in tbe open market."
The New York Gold Room has adopted the
subjoined resolution. which took effect yesterday:
"Jie80tved, That no member of this Exchange
fcbnll, directly or indirectly, transuct business in
gold publicly on the 6treets or sidewalks, or
passages to the rooms ot the Exchange, nor in
the tilth Avenue Hotel. Ar.y member violating
thi rule shall be suspended from the privileges
of tbe Exchange for thirty days. This resolu
tion shall take effect on and after Monday,
July 23."

Uentlcmem The Fourth of July, with its usual
foriivitin and pleasures, came to a sad termination
on the afternoon ot that day by the breaking out of
the !arget Ore that ever took p'ace In lb s country
dostroying half of the busmen portion of tne city,
with tinmrrou dwellings. Our store, which was in
a throe-story brick building, was completely swept
away by the devouring flames. We weie carrying
on the Jewelry business. We bad one of your large-
size Champion Safes in use, which contained our
Valuable Jewelry and watches, also our books, papers,
and some money, which were preserved in good
condition. The covers of tbe books and some
of the watches and Jewelry are decolored by the
steam irom the flre-prooi composition; not a leaf
of our principal books Is injured, l ot a word is
erased from our books or papers, every line and word
perfectly legible ; our Jewelry and watches can be
o'eaned. We were enable to remove thl Safe and
open it nntil Tuesday, the 10th, a period oi more
than Jive days after the fire. The heat around it
was of the most inteuso character, as its exterior
distinctly shows, the iron being badly warped and
sprung. 1 he brass knobs aud ornamental p ates on
the doors were entirely melU d off. The heat olo-ely
resembled that of a furnace, for the iron was at a
white heat. We would add, that a Safe which will
preserve its contents in such a fire proves its supe
riority, and is thoroughly Fire-proot.
Respcctiully yours,
OSRK1SU fc PEARSON.

Gentlemen : The large Are which occurred July
4 entirely detioyed our extensive stove manutao
torv ; also our ofbee, which was in a separate wooden
building, two stories in helyht. Tbe sate, one of
your Herring's Patent Champion, was in the second
utory; it fell to tbe rround. We got it out during
the tire ly means of chains. It was red hot. We
had it out open on Saturday. The books aud papers
contained in it wore all preserved . Tours truly,

Gentlemen:
This once beautiful oity ha been the scene of the
most lernblo conflagration ever known in the his
tory ot flies on this continent. Fifteen hundred
buildinas were destroyed, covering an area of more
than two hundred acres, rt-actting a mile and oue
halt in leng'b, by an average of a half mile in width
lhe building in which we bad the ofLce of the Port
land) Mutual Fire Insurance Company .was entirely
consumed. We bad a large number of books and
papers; these, with other valuable?, were all looted
up in one of your large size "Fire-Proof Safes."
We oug it out of tbe ruins on Saturday, where it
remained three days and a half. Alter cutting it
open, to our great surprise and gratification, the
contents were preserved in excellent condition ; the
covers of the book were drawn by the stoam ol the
flne-proof composition. Every line and word in our
books aBd papers are perfectly legible; not a leaf ot
our books or a paper shows the marks of fire. When
we take into consldei ation the magnitude ol this fire
the terrific beat to which your safe was subjected, no
water having been thrown on the ruins or on the
fire, prove your safe to be perfectly fire-proof. Tho
ordeal through which safes have passed in this
severe test, many having been completely burned
up, warrant us in saying that too much praise can
not be bestowed on "tbe Herring," as ewry one of
your make preierved itt contents.
