Sheridan's "Insubordination."
Tu New York Times, which hesitates to
attack no man who opposes Andrew Johnson,
stigmatizes General Sheridan's recent letter
to General Grant as displaying insubordina
tion. Wo see no insubordination about It.
On the contrary, the letter was directly called
forth by the President's telegram requesting
Goueral Sheridan to extend the time for
registration In Louisiana until August 1,
"unless ho had some good reasons for the
contrary," and ordering him "to report pro
gress," etc. Under these circumstances it
would havo been insubordination for the Gene
ral not to have replied, and candor and a
regard for the truth compelled him to report
the facts as they existed, just as he did
In the New Orleans massacre business, and
not as the President would have had him
reply. This General Sheridan did in the
honest, straightforward language of the sol
dier. It is the trenchant truthfulness of his
.'eply that constitutes its insubordination.
Sheridan reports that he has closed registra
tion in Louisiana because he has been two and
a half months at it; that there are no more to
register; and that he does not conceive it to be
his duty to put the Government to the ex
pense of keeping up the boards of registration
"to suit new issues coming in at the eleventh hour."
That's it exactly. Sheridan has executed the
law, as he was bound to do, and he now very
justly objects to putting the nation to the
expense of executing pettifogger Stanbery's
opinions, which, he truly says, open "a broad
macadamized road for perjury and fraud to
travel on."
This Is Sheridan's fault, in the judgment of
the Times. lie has spoken the truth, boldly
and powerfully. His words cut like a sabre
stroke. lie is an honest soldier, who does not
mince matters, but speaks in a language that
the people can understand. Of course such a
Style of proceeding does not suit the Times.
It is diametrically opposed to the Times' style
Of doing things. But the people, as in the case
of the New Orleans massacre, will cling to the
words of the honest soldier. His statements
bear the impress of truth, and they coincide
with the convictions of the masses.
The President and his followers are feeling
their way towards the removal of General
Sheridan. They have never forgiven him for
his action in the exposure of the true charac
ter of the New Orleans massacre. They would
have removed him then, had they dared to.
De has now committed a similar fault. The
Only thing that stands in the way of his re
moval now, is that rising popular sentiment
which is fast fixing upon General Sheridan as
a man who joins to the most splendid military
abilities the highest qualities of statesman
ship one who appreciates the true situation
of the country, and has faith in those great
principles which must finally bring us tri
umphantly through all our perils.
It only requires a little persecution from
"the powers that to be" to make such a man
the popular leader in a movement that will
Sweep the country from one end to the other,
as the autumnal fires sweep the prairies, and
carry dismay to the ranks of the conservatives
and reactionists, such as Sheridan and his
brave comrades carried to the Rebel cohorts in
the Shenandoah valley, or about Five Forks
at the fall of Richmond I
- The Rendering Unto Csesar.
In Great Britain, by a special custom autho
rized by law, the authority of the civil law
and the canon law is kept distinct. The
proper sphere of each is prescribed by statute,
and no decision before an ecclesiastical tribunal
lias any weight on a judioial trial. In our own
land, where liberty of conscience is guaranteed,
we have no ecclesiastical courts, and the pro
vince of the religious authorities is not as
clearly separated from the secular as we Bhould
desire. There seems to be a continual ten
dency on the part of certain denominations to
encroach on the individual rights of their mem
bers, and issue rules to guide them in matters
purely personal, and certainly far beyond the
authorized jurisdiction of the Church. We
have been led to these remarks by a despatch
narrating the proceedings of the Convention of
the Young Men's Christian Association now
sitting at Montreal. This despatch informs us
that that body ha3 disapproved of the playing
of billiards, and vigorously denounced the en
gaging in the game.
In the proceedings yesterday the Rev.
Mr. Burnell stated, with great eagerness, that
the Chicago Association allowed no games
Whatever in its rooms, but worked in sym
pathy with the churches. The Convention
actually adopted, we are informed, a resolu
tion denouncing, in no measured terms, the
Innocent game of billiards a game which In
Itself consists in knocking balls around with
the end of a stick. Now, in making such a
decision, we cannot but think that the Con
vention forgot the words of our Lord, when
He told the Pharisees to render unto Ctesar the
things that are Cteaar'a. In endeavoring to
resci-ibe what games shall be Christian and
Vfhat profane, we think that the body
Las gone utterly beyond all Justi
fiable boundaries, , and has interfered
In a matter with which they have
nothing to do. The game of billiards In itself
Is certainly as blameless an amusement as any
we know of. II a condemnation of any system
IHE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY.
of betting had been marie, we oould un
derstand the application of the prohibition, but
the opposition is based on the principle that
the time of the players might be better em
ployed. Well, if that is to be the criterion,
why did not the Convention proscribe chess,
and chequers, and dominoes f Time employed
in playing any of them might be
better employed. A study of Dod
dridge, or Paley, or Butler is certainly
more edifying than any of those games. Yet
we hardly think that Young Men's Christian
Associations would have dared to have inter
dicted them. The true maxim is, that any re
creation not sinful is as allowable to members
of the Church as to the rest of the world. The
old story of the sad consequences to John of
"having all work and no play," is too well
known to need repetition. We think,
therefore, that billiards and chess, and
every other game which pleasantly passe3
time, without crime being attached, is not only
lawful but necessary. Time spent in reorea
tion is no waste; and if such a doctrine was to
be laid down by the divines of the present day,
the Church would grow too sombre for the
young, and would drive away from herself all
who have a good supply of animal spirits. We
recommend to the Convention to let Csesar
take care of his own things, and leave all
harmless games to such as desire to enjoy
them. There is too muoh of the Puritan
and the Pharisee in the action of the Con
vention. Public Opinion in Great Britain.
The London Times, which aims to express the
dominant public sentiment of Great Britain,
savagely attacks the House of Lord3, deolaring
it to be "the most Indolent and most useless
assembly in the world." The Times
declares that the debates of this body are
pointless and uninteresting; that but few of its
members can attend its sessions; and that fre
quently important business is transacted with
only three members present. Measures should
be taken, the Times thinks, if it be not too late,
for the resuscitation of the body, which is in
danger of committing suicide.
The recent reformatory measures which
have passed the House of Commons, the Times
says, comprise the substance of a political re
volution greater even than that of 1832. The
aspect of every question has been changed by
it, and the transference of power effeoted by
the Reform bill calls for a revision and re
modelling of the whole English system.
These are significant avowals to be made by
the leading organ of publio opinion in Great
Britain, and show how the doctrines of politi
cal reform are gaining strength and influence
among all classes of English society.
SCHOOM OP THR AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSO
CIATION. The schools sustained at the South
by the American Missionary Association are
very highly spoken of by candid and intelli
gent observers, and the progress of the freed
people in acquiring the rudiments of useful
knowledge is very satisfactory. This Associa
tion has for many years (from a period long
before the war) been the devoted friend of the
colored people, and its success with them now
might reasonably have been expected.
Tub Georgia Gold Mines. The gold de
posits of Georgia are again attracting conside
rable attention. These are among the oldest
mines in our country, and were worked with
profit, though in a rude way, before the war.
Stamp mills and extensive machinery for the
reduction of the ores are now being introduced
by Northern capitalists, and the production of
gold is expected to be largely increased.
It is a little curious that at this time, in
nearly all the large cities of the country, the
aqueduct question is up in serious form, and
new or additional machinery is required to fur
nish end distribute the needed supply of water.
This is true not only ot our own city, but also
of New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis,
Brooklyn, and, we think, oi several other
cities. Reservoirs and engines are the principal
things upon which experiments are now making,
or which require reinforcement. The wisest
policy henceforth will be the most liberal and
long-sighted, since the days of doubt with re
gard either to the practicability or financial
success of city water-works were over scores of
years ago.
Thb yachting fever, as our exchanges show,
has been lately making fearful ravages among
the newspaper reporters. The columns sup
plied by that ingenious and industrious class
give startling testimony of the extent of the
malady. Sailor phrases, boating slang, club
gossip, all prevail, and a nautical language
composed of such expressions as "luff, you lub
ber, luff!" and "take a reef in the stove-pipe,"
with plentiful allusions to "her going in stays"
and "showing her fore-ioot," declare at once the
gallantry and the professional experience of the
reporter. '
The Austrian Government is wavering In its
Eastern policy. In generul, it sides with Eug
land in disapproving the reform measures advo
cated by Russia and ber allies, Prussia, France,
and IUly, but more than once it has given a
reluciaut adhesion to the pioceedings of these
four powers. Thus we learn by a cable des
patch dated jesterday, that it has now Joined
Russia and the other powers in urging upon the
Turkish Government an investigation of the
troubles in Caudia.
The City of Washington, including general
Grant, is said to be In a ferment over Sheridan's
letter. It is reported that General Grant is not
pleased at the publication of his subordinate's
manly and well-considered remonstrance against
the President's ruinous policy, though why he
should care it not easy to see. The country
has no disposition to saddle Mm with the re
sponsibility ofthatpolic5
The November Meteors. The Athenaeum
says that Professor Adams has determined, by
elaborate calculation, that the periodic time of
the November meteors is 33 25 years. In a
communication to the Royal Astronomical
Society he remarks: "It appears probable
that the great comet of 18(J2 is part of the
same current of matter as that to which the
August meteors belong."
THE Dl CKENS CONTR 0 VERS Y.
Thn Importance of an International copyright
law has lately received memorable Illustration
from a sharp and unpleasant controversy be
tween certain American publishing firms atom
the reprinting ot Mr. Charles Uiokens' uovels.
The quarrel seems io have sprang ont of
letter from the author to Messrs. Tick nor A
Fields, In which appesrs this sentence: "In
America the occupation of my lifo for thirty
years Is, unless It bears your imprint, utterly
worth lorn and profitless to me." Meters. Peter
son A Brothers, of Philadelphia, reply to this
statement that Mr. Dickens has received at
various times from Harper A Brothers 1900
for advance sheets of five of his novels; that
they have purchased from the Harpers the ste
reotype plates and Kood-wlllo! those editions,
and have also bought or Carey, Lea A Ulan
chard. Btringer A Townsend, and other firms,
the plates ot several earlier works; and that,
consequently, they are by the customs and
courtesy of the trade "the only authorized pub
lishers in America of the works or Charles
DickeiiB." In view or these facts Mr. Dickens'
letter is characterized as "ungenerous if not
dishonest." We do not think the letter very
pleasant in tone, or very happily expressed;
but dishonest It certainly is not, Inasmuch as
the writer expressly alludes to the trans ictloa
with the Harpers, and generous there is no rea
son why It should be. Mr. Dickens' meaning is
plain enouph: it Is that Tlcltnor A Fields are
the only publishers who pay him a share of the
profits on the sale of his works in America, if
he has received certain sums from other houses,
it Is not in recognition of his rights as an
author, but as an equivalent for a certain spool
fled service, that is to say, lor his furnishing a
copy of his books to them sooner than to any
body else. The Boston firm say In e fleet to Mr.
Dickens: "We make money off the product of
your brain, and it is only honest that you should
have a pnrt of 1U" The Petersons say: "Home
body Is sure to take your book; let us take it
first and we will give you so inauy dollars."
To pretend that a payment like this is In the
nature of a copyright, and that Mr. Dlckeus,
having Bold the advance sheets of a book to one
house, has no right to consent to its subsequent
publication by another, is simply absurd.
So much for the author's share in the contro
versy. As between the Messrs. Peterson and
Messrs. Tick nor A Fields, the quarrel resolves
itself into this: What is the courtesy of the
trade, n nd bow far is that courtesy a binding
rule? There 1b a sort of tacit understanding
among publishers that when one firm has
bought advance sheets of a foreign book, no
other firm shall reprint it; and that the pub
lishing house which first introduces an English
author to the American publio. and, so to
speak, makes his popularity in this country,
snail have the exclusive privilege of printing
that author's later works. But no "rights" to
separate works acquired under that flimsy
"courtesy of the trade" have ever been held to
debar a firm from manufacturing a complete
edition of the writings of a popular standard
author; and It would be a publio misfortune If
any such understanding should obtain general
acceptance.
In point of fact, however, the courtesy of the
trade has no foundation in equity or politeness;
it is nothing more than the law of retaliation.
As a rule it is only observed between those who
are afraid of each other. A says to B, "If you
Interfere with my Dickens, I will run foul of
your Thackeray; let me devour my prey in
peace, and you may devour yours." So with
the books of secoud and third-rate authors
some such compact as this, some tacit partition
treaty, has usually been kept. When very
popular writers were in question, and there
was a lively competition for the spoils, it has
never been kept at all. Neither Dlckeus, nor
Thackeray, nor Bulwer. nor Macaulay, nor any
other great light of English literature, has ever
been recognized as the property of any particu
lar American publisher. Tlcknor A Fields have
been looked upon as the sole legitimate re
printers of Tennyson, not beoause they were
first In the field, but because they paid a part of
their profits to the author. That gives them a
right in equity over those who pay nothing,
though it may not In law nor In the muddle
known as the "courtesy code."
It would be better for all parties if that code
were swept from existence, and the honest plan
of paying a percentage to the author were
adopted in its stead. Then we should have no
more disputes about "authorized" editions, no
more scrambling to push books hastily printed,
carelessly bound, and half oorrected into the
market; and if the number of English reprints
were in consequence considerably reduced, we
are by no means suie that tbe publio would
sutler from tbe reduction. If. Y. Tribune o this
