The Effort to Stop lleconstruction.
Wb cannot but regard the attempt that is
being made to procure an injunction from the
Supreme Court restraining the execution of
the Reconstruction law recently passed by
Congress, as a most ill-advised and unfortu
nate movement. The question sought to be
thus settled is a political one, and oiiiside of
the proper province of the Supreme Court.
That body might as consistently have issued
an injunction to restrain General Grant from
attacking Lee, as it now could to restrain any
one of our Southern Generals from executing
the Reconstruction law.
In ordinary times we should have no fear of
the improper interference of the Supreme
Court ; but that body has bo forfeited the
confidence of the people by its partisan action
and language, in some of the late cases before
it, and has so evidently been controlled not
by legal, but by political considerations, that
we could scarcely be astonished at any step it
might take.
We regret that this question has been raised
at all, because the Congressional plan of re
construction is now in the full tide of success
ful execution. It is proving itself daily a
measure of peace and reconciliation. Its in
fluence upon Southern society in breaking
down the old antagonisms of race and color, is
almost magical. The South never was so
peaceful, never gave such evidences of its
cipswitT for progress and improvement; in
i.i,ort. never presented so hopeful an aspect as
i: i.vis ?-l&y uuder the practical workings of
:! St.vniruk-:;on law. If its honest execu
t.3 is not interfered with, there is every
prpe-t that all the States will be back in the,
Union, organized on principles of pure republi
canism, before the next Presidential election.
We shall then have a peace which will be per
manent, and the entire structure of the Union
will be firmer than ever before.
Just at this moment, when all of these
bright prospects are dawning before the coun
try, an effort is being made to put a stop to
the whole work, and to remand us to a fiercer
agitation than any through which we have
passed. Is this wise ? Is there any valuable
practical end to be reached by it ? Suppose
the Court grants the injunction, what then ?
Will Congress feel forced by it to give up its
plan of reconstruction? Will the moral sense
of the country feel concluded by it? Will the
States be brought back into the Union by it?
Will business, which is now reviving under
the better hopes inspired by the workings of
the law, be quickened by it? No; but the very
reverse of all this.
Is there any public demand for this move
ment? None. Considerate men of all par
ties unite in deprecating it. Even the South,
or those who are enabled to speak for her,
does not desire it. Said Governor Orr, in his
recent great speech before the Charleston
Board of Trade:
"The act of Congress recently passed has
assumed thai this country la a conquered ter
ritory, a conquered people, and consequently
that that body has a right to dictate terms. The
power exists in that body to dictate those terms,
It is secure for the next two years, and when,
they place themselves squarely and broadly
upon that platform, I.forone, do not propose to go
to the thipreme Court, or anywhere eUe for the pur
pose of disputing that power; but in good faith J will
accept the terms, humiliating as they may be, and
openly, fairly, znd squarely urge their adoption
before our people."
And this sentiment, we are told, was re
ceived with "great applause" by his audience
1 his, then, may be assumed to be the senti
ment of the business men of the South. They do
not wish to dispute before the Supreme Court,
or anywhere else, the power of Congress over
this whole matter. They accept the situation
and are ready to go ahead with the work.
Why, then, the question recurs, should
the effort be made to throw us back again into
the whirlpool of strife and agitation ?
Our own opinion has been, and is, that "the
hand of Joab" is in this matter. Sharkey,
who makes the application for the writ, was
one of Johnson's Provisional Governors. We
have no doubt that he acts in accordance with
the suggestions of his superior officer. The
whole movement is of a piece with that obsti
nate contempt of public opinion, and disregard
for the good of the country, which has become
go characteristic of the author of "My Policy."
He sees that, despite all the predictions of his
veto messages, despite his long and bitter
warfare upon Congress, their plan of rocon
etructiou is working, and working so admira
bly as to extort praises even from those who
would much rather curse. Unless something
can be done to arrest the good work that is
going on, the President and "his plan" will be
laid up high and dry on the banks of popular
contempt. The policy of Congress will be
vindicated by its wonderful success. Hence
the work must be obstructed at whatever cost
to the country. Peace, prosperity, union all
. must be sacrificed to the political necessities
which environ the President. It remains to
be seen whether the Supreme Court will lend
itsell to sucn a scheme.
T . . . . ri ..-.. .. T) I..!.. 1
jiiuMunuin. uitmiiuuu must nave an
atmosphere which is calculated to pro
duce collisions between fellow-citizens. On
Saturday no less than three contests took
place: One between the Hon. Joseph Segar
And Collector -James, in which the former
endeavored to strangle the latter; another be
tween a Captain Roche and a merchant named
Harvey, in which the former was knocked
down; and the last, of course, was an affair in
which the redoubtable Pollard was couoerned,
THE DAILY EVENING TEIJiGRATO. riHLADFXWIlA, MONDAY,
and which ended In that "Chevalier's" arrost.
We do not wonder that Northern men have
some little hesitation about returning to the
South, for what are their chance if tl.o South
erner cannot even feel suro of safety from
assault.
Th Value of Itussisa America.
It pkkms that the popular impression of the
comparative worthlessuoss oi tno uussiau
possessions is not shared in by some of our
most intelligent military officers. Thus Quartermaster-General
Meigs says that "he can
conceive of no greater boou to our Pacillc
States" thau the acquisition of that territory
would be. He says that ho "should value
Russian America, with its fisheries and rivers,
beyond the hot plains of Mexico, or the fertile
plantations of Cuba."
Commodore Rogers says of the southern
part of the Russian possessions, that "wo
should get a strip of shore much like Norway,
which supplies Europe with immense quan
tities of timber. The shore being au eastern
coast as regards the ocean, is much warmer
than a western one. The first is a minor
consideration, but the fisheries aud timber
may be very valuable, the timber particularly
so to a coast so bare as that of the Pacillc."
General Halleck telegraphs from San Fran
cisco that the value of the country is greater
than has been supposed, aud that the rejec
tion of the treaty would cause great dissatis
faction on the Pacific coast, and especially in
California.
If these representations are correct, we
trust the treaty will be ratified. There are
really no valid objections to" our owning that
country, except the first cost of buying it;
and if the people on the Pacific coast think the
bargain is a good one, and want the country,
we see no good ground for refusing to buy it.
Growth of Musical Tnste in America.
Wb think that it is the Rev. Sidney Smith,
who divides a nation's progress into the days
when the citizens strove only for sustenance,
the days when they labored to accumulate .
money, and finally, the time when they learned
how to spend it. Writing, as he did, in the
early part of the century, he explained the
absence of fine arts in thV United States by
asserting that they belonged to the third
period, and that America had not yet com
pleted the money-making epoch in her his
tory. If his deductions are true, then we
must infer that we have at last got
fairly started in luxurious enjoyment of natu
ral life. Every year it is noticeable that the
taste of our people for the fine arts is becom
ing more and more cultivated, and, what is
still more promising, it is, daily becoming
more general. In looking back over the his
tory of the opera during the last few years,
we see no ground for that regret which is felt
when the drama is contemplated.
The old theatre-goers may have cause for
regret that the days when Macready was in
his prime, when Mrs. Charles Keen was Ellen
Tree, and Junius Brutus Booth, Sr., had not
yet lost his genius and his health by dissipa
tion, are gona by. It may be anything but
complimentary to compare the actors of the
present with Forrest as a young man, or Barry
Sullivan, or Kemble before they wore them
selves out. But in contemplating the opera
in America we see only cause for congratula
tion. When these dramatic stars were at
their zenith, we had nothing worthy of the
name of opera in the United States. Now
there is scarcely a city of any importance
which does not possess a building especially
dedicated to that fine art, and we hope yet to
see the day when not only a permanent house
but a permanent troupe may be stationed in
all our metropoli.
Although it requires no great stretch o
memory to look back over all the companies
which have been in our midst, yet it is plea
sant'to run over the names of the prime donne
who have, in the few i short years since the
Academy has been opened here, visited us
The announcement of the arrival of another
troupe, and the commencement of the season,
recalls vividly those who have previously filled
the walls of the Academy. Madame Gazzaniga
and Madame Coulson were once the theme of
universal admiration. The name of Patti
Strackosh recalls the
unrivalled Adelaide
autocratic queen in
Patti, now reigning as
Paris, and holding her musical court in all the
capitals of Europe. Tlien the "nightingale
in a barrel," the lamented Amodio, whose
unhappy death cast a gloom over our musical
world. As buffos we remember Rocco and
Ronconi. As a tenor of the past we think of
Brignoli, who, however, is with us still.
Coming down to later days, we all remember
the troupe which was with us in the winter of
1862, all of whom have now separated, and
the voices of many have ceased to be attractive.
Karl Formes, as "Plunkett," was our ideal;
Frederici, now Madame Himmer, and Madame
Johannsen, and Habelman, and Himmer, and
all their able support, making by far the best
German troupe that has ever visited our city.
But we cannot dwell upon their names. But
a few years ago the advent of a company was
an event; we now naturally expect at least
two every season, and feel surprised aud
slighted if they do not appear. We believe at
the present time there are four companies in
the United States one German, in the South
ern States; two Italian, one under Maret.ek,
in New York, and one with Parepa, in our
city; while the Richings Opera Troupe, when
we last heard of thorn, were drawing crowded
houses in Richmond. That the musical taste
of the country is sufficient to support four
expensive organizations, is the best proof that
our hopes of seeing a permuuent opera are
not chimerical. There are few more pleasant
topics of conversation than to look back, after
a lapse of some twenty years, and recall and
compare the merits of the various troupes
which have visited our city. Those who have
seen all the prime donne of the past will be
enabled to compare them with those now
claiming our admiration, and form that critical
judgment for whioU Philadelphia is reuowued.
Im.hkhh op Mr. Stiivrnh. We are deeply
aorry to hear of the continued fllness of the
llou. Thaddoua Slovens, who has boou lying
seriously indisposed In Washington for the
past week. At Mr. Stevens' ago every malady
Womos dangerous, and wo feel that profound
solicitude which all the loyal people of tlie
land entertain for his speedy recovery. The
country could ill afford, at the present critical
moment in her history, to lose so true a ser
vant as the venerable member from Lancaster,
lie has Ix'en for more than a third of a century
devoting himself to the public good, and since
the war has riseu to be the leader of that
public sentiment which demauds no indemnity
for the past, but insists on security for the
future. His last great (speech in the House
proves that, though weakened in body, his
intellect is as clear as ever, and wo hope that
the vigor of his frame will enable him to suc
cessfully overcome his present attack. He is
suffering from disease of the heart.
Dhatii to HoiisK-TiiiRVKS. The Legislature
of North Carolina has passed a law punishing
horse-stealing with death. The invitation for
time to roll backward seems to have been
complied with, so far as the old North State
is concerned. Why should not a horse-thief
be placed in a hurdle, drawn and quartered,
and hung in chains, as they did in the days
of Guy Fawkes ? It seems that the North
Carolinians think that it is better to deter
evil-doers by terror than to form companies,
like our farmers do, for mutual protection,
and in case of loss, for repayment for the animal
stolen. We of Pennsylvania, however, thiuk
it good policy to spare human life, and here a
kind of insurance company compensates tor
thefts which vigilance cannot prevent.
A NOVELTY IH THE ART OF NAVIGATION.
A Miniature Vessel to Cross the Atlantic
Without either Balls or Steam.
Yankee skill is neroctuallv at work devisinir
and perfecting ingenious contrivances, both use
ful aud ornameutal, at which the world marvels
and stands aehast with a-Jmirinc awe: and when
it is supposed they have readied the acme of
their sublime inventing power, the entire uni
verse is Hiram startled with the announcement
that the inaoiuittblc Yaukee has discovered
something, a thousanJ-iold more wonderful thau
was ever before dreamt of in man's philosophy.
The latest invention of this kind that it is our
province to chronicle Is of the nature of a piece
ot marine machinery, but which will obviate the
necessity ot steam, and will at the same time no
awav with the masts, thus discarding the still j
proper, aud jet receiving the motive power from
four fans or ails of canvas; in short, the inven
tion is nothing more nor less than a wmJinill
Bhip, the machinery ot which is very simple and
easily kept in repair.
An upright tower, seven feet In height from
the deck, composed of wood, aud hollow in the
middle, atter the iashion of a pump, contains an
iron rod, which is attached to a revolving head
on the top ot the tower, and, running through
this pump or tower to a crossbar resting across
the keilson, where, by the means of two mitre
wheels, working at right angles, a direct actiug
shaft is made to turn an ordinary propelling
wheel. The rod Is con duel to its proper place
in the centre of the tower by means of journals.
Capping the tower are two mitre wheels, work
ing on the revolving bead, and through ihn
head passes the countershaft to which the wind
mill is attached. These tans furnish the motive
power, and are composed of lour oak traues,
in the form ot a common window frame, the
space in the centre being occupied with canvas,
working an iron rod, which, by means of hal
yards leading to the deck, can be reeled at will.
A reversing motion la obtained from a double
wheel on the propelling shaft, and workiug by
a clutch leading att to the cock pit. An Iron
rod leading lrom the revolving head to the
deck, and held there by a set screw, and work
ing on a segment of a circle on the deck,
enables the navigator to lay her as close to the
wind as any ordinary sailing vessel.
The credit ot this invention belongs to Cap
tain John Powell, a native of Brooklyn, who is
now engaged in building a small vessel, about
the size ot the famous Red, White, and Blue, to
be worked on this novel principle, in which he
proposes taking passage for Europe about the
middle of June next. The dimensions ot his
vessel will be as lollows: Length, twenty-six
feet: breadth of beam, seven feet; and depth of
hold, three feet. In the case of storms be can
easily reef or take in his sails, and heave his
vessel to, with a drag. Captain Powell feels
confident that he can make between six and
seven knots per hour in an ordinary breeze.
