American and Foreign Governments.
Tn cation hu emerged bo trfamphintlj
from the severe trials to which it has recently
been subjected, that all doubts hi regard to
the perpetuity of republicanism should ba
forever dismissed. No man who oomprehmjdi
what the oitizens of the United Slates hare
Buffered and achieved during the last eight
years can honestly question the capacity of
the Amerloan people for self government.
Compelled to grapple suddenly with the most
momentous issues, they have deolded bravely
and wifely, despite innumerable appeals ti
their baser instincts, to their fears, their sordid
interests, their dread of death, awl their pride
of race. Left free as the winds to declare for
war or peace, and for taxation or reputation,
tbey have voluntarily chosen the nobler part,
ditdatning present ease and afety at the
p-.loeot national disintegration and dishonor,
and in spite of partial mistakes they have
tubstantially achieved the great euds at
which they aimed, and nobly atoned for
the error of making Andrew Johnson Vice
President In 18G4 by choosing as Presi ieut in
18G8 the foremost soldier of the age, aud the
man whose pre-eminent fitness to administer
the Government is universally recognized.
Other nations have scaroely yet ventured to
grapple with the problems we have long since
Solved, and few would dare to submit their in
stitutions to the scrutiny which perpetaally
awaits American laws and constitutions.
Eogland trying, for the first time, an
electoral system that approaches universal
Suffrage. It is hedged round, however, with
restrictions which would not be tolerated in
this country for a moment. Although the
pecuniary qualification has been greatly re
duced, it still exists in a modified form, which
will exclude a considerable number of persons
of the legal age. All voting, too, Is still viva
voce, John ' Bright 's efforts to establish the
American system of voting by ballot having
proved fruitless. As every tenant must
openly disolose his preference? in the presenoe
of his landlord, free suffrage becomes impossi
ble, as land-owners exercise a potent iuiluence
over the oooupants of thtdr domains. S uffrage is
Sot only restricted in regard to the number of
persons who exercise it, and the mode of
Toting, but also in regard to the officers to ba
elected. Here every important public officer
is chosen by the people. There, only members
of the House of Commons are voted for, and a
hereditary monarch and a hereditary House of
Lords may interpose many obstacles to tha
triumph of the will of the majority after it U
constitutionally expressed. And yet, with the
single exception of Switzerland, Great Britain
possesses the most liberal Government in the
Old World; and continental monarchs are aj
muoh afraid of the establishment of the Uug
liflh system within their dominions as the
English aristocracy are of the establishment of
republicanism in Great Britain. In France,
Kapoleon tolerates universal suffrage subject
to police and military supervision, but he con
verts this privilege into a mockery by pro
hibiting free discussions of public affairs. He
has recently issued the outrageous edict
that no newspaper shall be permitted to print
articles relating to the extent of his constitu
tional power. Theoretically, despotism could
. go no further; and if the people are never to be
warned when their rights are invaded, and the
right of Napoleon to exercise his own sweet
will to an unlimited extent is never to be
questioned, there can be no intelligent or use
ful expression of public sentiment at the polls.
France, with all her mighty energies, is held
in the iron grasp of an imperial and imperious
master, and the golden opportunities which
her citizens have enjoyed at different periods
to realize their aspirations for liberty have all
been wasted. Spain is now in the throes of a new
revolution, and although she has bauishedher
profligate queen, it is ecartely probable that
the thi one will long remain vacant. Already
it is eagerly sought by the representatives of
other Spanish dynasties, and the best hope of
the people seems to be that a constitutional
monarchy will be established, and that a few
important reformations will be effected. While
the King of Prussia has practically eularged his
boundaries, his triumph was achieved by a
most audacious defiance of the aotion of the
Prussian Chambers and a flagrant violation of
the constitution. The Austrian monarch is
taking his first lessons in constitutional mo
narchy as a penance for the blunders which
eventuated in the mortifying defeats of Aus
trian power at Solferino and Sadowa. Russia
and Turkey do not even pretend to possess
any higher type of government than a despo
tism pure and simple. Sonth America is the
perpetual viotim of warring factions or ornshing
despotism. In Asia and Africa even the rudi
ments of free government are praotioally un
known. In this country alone does the gov
eminent of the people for the people prevail
on an extensive scale, and the nation can
proudly point to the reeult of the experiment
here instituted as a noble and complete vindi
cation of its wisdom.
"Let Us Have I'eaeel"
TflH Pennsylvania Peace Society held their'
annual meeting in this city last week. The
society is as insignificant in point of numbers
as it is impracticable in its Ideas. But neither
of those.oiroumstanoes deters its members
. tv.i, annual pow-wow, at which
set fortU the bar
baritles and inhumanity of war in the most
'vivid coloring, aud to lamnt the faot that,
while their annual contributions towards
the caufe of universal peace seldom
exceed $100, the warlike budget of each of the
great powers of the world Is counted by mil
lions. The most noticeable action taken by these
eeoentrlo advocates of a state of affairs whioh
will be utterly Impossible for centuries to oome
was upon the Indian question. A memorial
to Congress was adopted, eulogisiing the
"noble Red Man," recounting the wrongs
whioh he has suTered at the hands of his pale
faced brethren, and demanding that a ralio
change of our Indian polloy shall
be immediately inaugurated. While we
heartily seoond this demand, as we have done
elsewhere to-day, we are obliged to oonfeas
that our admiration for the "noble qualities
of courage, faith, manhood, strength, freedoin
recognition of a great Controlling Spirit, and
veneration for their fathers and for the good
everywhere," is not so excessively developed
as to lead ns to respond affirmatively to the
query propounded by the peace people:
"May we not even gain muoh from them for
our own improvement ?"
The peace people declare that "it is oheaper
to feed than to fight them, and more humane
to love than to hate them." In this abstract
idea we heartily concur. But when we are
compelled, as at present, both to feed and to
fight them, the question of the comparative
cheapness of the two policies is quite immate
rial. The report of Lieutenant-General Slier
man, recently submitted to the Kxeoutive of
the United States, is the moat exhaustive
rtsume of the Indian question that we have
lately seen, and it shows conclusively that the
war whioh the noble savages are at present
waging against us is entirely without provoca
tion, brought about by a course on our part in
harmony with the demands of the peaoe advo
cates the withdrawal of oar troops from a
portion of the Indian country. This was in
terpreted by the savages as an indication of
lear, and forthwith they started on the war
path, hoping thereby to force the Government
into an entire abandonment of the Plains.
That the peace advocates have not read Gene
ral Sherman's account of the wanton barbari
ties of the savages, we are convinoed, by
findipg in their memorial the following para
graph:
Llentenaut "isk overtakes the Apaches,
hlliiun auii wouuulii h number, and destroy
ing itieir winter supplies.' Wiiai dlabo.'io-tl
InburuHuity and nnum liicllsoreMoa 'de

heuris tun fall of kviu talrtv not to unite iu
restore what their very urmiostuun ruthlessly
ciettroj !"
This cry of '-Peace ! paace ! when there is
no peace," and can be no peaoe, either in the
Indian conutry or among nations claiming to
be civilized, until the causes of war are them
selves removed, is the sheerest nonsense.
While there are, among the peace advooates, a
few persons who are sincere and disinterested,
we stroDgly suspect that the greater propor
tion of them are prompted solely by the desire
to at pear in print. Perhaps it will do no
harm, save to themselves, to let them have
their fill of it.
The "liand-in-lla-nl" Itusines.
Tub great gathering at the up-town Wigwam
in this city, during the month of August,
1SG6, was inaugurated by Massachusetts and
Sonth Carolina entering the building "arm in
arm." The incident was well conceived, from
the sensational point of view, and answered
its purpose, at the time, of arousing a great
deal of enthusiasm. But it wa3 a mere trick
of broken-down politicians from the North and
unrepentent Rebels from the South, who
hoped, by their unholy alliance, to get con
trol of the flesh-pots for a considerable period.
There was no more hearty aooord in it than
there would have been in Webster and Hiyne
leaving the Senate Chamber arm in arm, after
the great rhetorical tilt between them in 1830;
or in Sumner and Bully Brooks embracing,
just before the oaning which the latter
administered to the former, previous to
the war. It was worse than a trick
it was a conspiracy against the integrity
of the Union and the cause of liberty,
justioe, and truth, having Andrew Jihnson for
its central figure, and Henry J. Raymond for
the man of dirty work. If it meant anything,
it meant a coalition between Rebels who had
sustained an ignominious and overwhelming
defeat on the field of battle, and the Copper
head wing of the Democratic party, which had
exerted itself throughout the war to embarrass
the Government in its efforts to put down the
Rebellion. A few men of honest intention and
patriotio motives, such as General Dix, were
entrapped by the conspirators, but they soon
penetrated the thin disguise and forsook the
alliance before they were wholly contami
nated. Although the Wigwam Conven
tion was barren of results directly, it was
the starting point of the second rebellion,
which culminated at Tammany Hall last
July, when Vallandigham forced the Dem
ocratic nomination on Horatio Seymaur and
Sejmour on the Democratic party, while
Wade Hampton blocked out the platform and
selected its material. From this stage in the
conspiracy to its final overthrow there was but
one step, and that was taken on the 31 of
November, when General Grant was elected
President by the largest majority on the popu
lar vote ever received by any Presidential
aspirant.
The opening episode of the Wigmam Con
vention, which has led us into this train of
thought, was reoalled by our enoounteriog
the following doggerel lines, constituting the
chorus to the campaign song of a Louisiaua
colored glee club, doubtless of Demooratlo
tendencies:
"O raxsl and bags!
HUull vanlHti from tho laud t
When we aud our old inntnrs
Uo luurclilnu baud In baud."
The "hand-In baud" business Is not less
interesting than was the "arm-in-arm" epi-
t aode.. The latter fruled, Lowever, Leoause it
was, to all intents and purposes, merely an
attempt to revive the Rebellion under a new
and less obnoxious name. If the "hand-tn-band"
experiment is to be continued as it has
been begun in Louisiana and some other
Ponthern States, it will fall likewise. On the
3d of November it worked admirably as far
as "our old masters" were coaoerned. They
went to the polls and voted solidly for Sey
mour and Blair, for repudiation and revolu
tion. So did a few of the poor, deluded
negroes; but suoh of them only as went
"marohlng haud-in-hand" with their old
masters, to vote, at their dictation and on
petti of their lives, with the party whose sno.
cess meant death, destruction, and damnation
to all their raoe.
K the experiment is to be continued in this
fashion, we repeat that it will fail that it
must fail. The platform on whioh General
Grant was carried iuto the Presidential chair
was the platform of "Peaoe," and that plat
form can be inaugurated only by a prompt
and summary termination to the system of
persecution and proscription whioh, under
the auspices of the Hampton-Democracy, has
made a negro's life in the Southern States
worth less to him and to the country than the
life of an unclean beast. To bring about a
different state of affairs, less disgraoeful to
the nation at large and more merciful to both
races in the South, is the tank which awaits
Prebident Grant aud the Forty-first Congreis.
Before their lease of power begins, Andrew
Johnson and the Fortieth Congress are
interposed during a period of three
months. Congress is faithful to its
trust, and bas given abundant proof of its
stern patriotism and unwavering devotion to
the cause of justice and liberty. Andrew
Johnson, encouraged by the "arm-in-arm"
episode of August, 1800, has shown himself to
be anything and everything but what is desi
rable and in accordance with the sentiments
of a vast majority of the people. Will he
continue in his stubborn and disloyal ways
or will he accept the verdiot of the people,
join hands with Congress, and leave Presi
dent Grant and the Forty-first Congress
but little or nothing to accomplish, save the
more thorough harmonizing of the heteroge
neous elements of our population ? In three
months he cau undo muoh of the evil he ha
done since the hand of an assassin made him
the arbiter of onr destinieB. If he will but
make a serious attempt at pacification, he will
retire from the Presidency in much better odor
than did James Buchanan or Franklin Pierce.
If he does not make such an attempt, he may
yet possibly retire from office before the 4th of
March next.
A Suicidal Indian Policy.
The New Ycrk Timet proposes what it doubt
less regards as a complete and satisfactory
solution of the vexatious Indian question.
"To make our westward course among the
poor alxyiginies more easy, effeotive, and
creditable to ourselves," says the Times, "we
should use those Indian chiefs as our paid
officers, weariDg our colors at the head of
their own native regiments, doing our work,
and becoming good citizens in process o
time." The Times justifies this proposition
by a historical citation, and thinks our suo
cess would be as great as was that of Lord
Chatham, when he removed the discontent of
the Scottish Highlanders by taking them into
the British service, "plumes, tartans, and all.'
This parallel, however, we are inclined to
regard as a weak one. The difference between
the customs and national idiosyncracies of the
Kvglish and the Highlanders was compara
tively insignificant, in comparison with that
which exists between the whites and the
Indians of this country. In Great Britain a
national antipathy alone was to be overcome.
The Highlanders, although not the gentlest
and most refined of people, were far from
being cutthroats and horse-thieves by instinot
and habit. It is not only an antipathy of raoes,
engendered and fostered by centuries of cruelty
and oppression, that we are required to over
come in our treatment of the aboriginal tribes
of this country. Almost every attempt that
has been made, honestly and systemati
cally, to adapt the North American
Indian to the civilization of Europe
Las proved an utter failure. Iu a
few straggling instances it has been success
ful, but on such a limited scale that the result
is of no moment. The pure-blooded Indian
can not be civilized, in the mass, after the
fashion of the nineteenth century. At one
time it might have been possible, but the
unjust treatment to which the whole race has
been subjected at the hands of the whites,
taken in connection with their nomadio habits
and their antipathy to the restraining influ
ences of civilized life, has rendered it imprao
ticable, notwithstanding its great desirability,
both as a guarantee cf justice in the future
and a reparation for wrongs inflicted in the
past.
The sooner this fact is recognized in all pro
jected reforms of our Indian policy, the better
will it be for both races. The universal arm
ing of the Indian tribes might seoure their
favor for a time, but so soon as their real or
imaginary grievances shonld get the better of
their vain love of show and intense passion
for pomp and parade, the old oosfllot would be
resumed, on a better footing, as far as the In
dians are concerned, than ever in the past. To
set loose upon the almost boundless
plains of the Far West whole regi
ments of armed and disciplined (f)
Indians would be the most suicidal
policy that could be adopted, as matters now
stand. An entire change in our Indian polloy
is certainly needed, the first step in which
should be the transfer of the Indian Bureau to
the War Department. This course would pa
an end to the wholesale robbery and corrup
tion which have so long disgraced the nation
in its dealings with the tribes, and whioh has
been, and will remain, as long as it is per
mitted te continue, the souroe of all the dis
content which pre rail amug them, as vrU as
of their warfare upon the whites and among
tberopelves. Llentenant-General Sherman, In
his rr cent report recounting the outrages per
petrated by the savages during the past four
month, regards this transfer of the Iuliaa
Bureau as an Indispensable measure, and the
only way in which the recommendations of
the Peace Commissioners oan ba effect aally
on i led cut.
Murder.
Tiik olty was startled this morning by the in
telligence ihatamost foul murder had been
committed last evening, at the northeast cor
ner of Tenth and Pine streets. The utmost
excitement now prevails on the subject, and
the scene of the terrible deed has been visited
by a throng of people during the morning
anxious to learn all the partioulars. There is
co donlt but that the guilty parties have
been ciieoovered, and, shocking to relate,
the perpetrators of the deed are the near rela
tives of the murdered woman. Our local
columns will be found to contain full particu
lars of this diabolical outrage, and from the
facts already brought to light, it is evident
that a Inst for wealth, and a desire to obtain
popeeBBlon of property whioh did not rightly
belong to them, iusplred a husband
to conspire with his wife for the inurdor
of her own mother. The parties to this affair
have hitherto moved in respectable sooiety,
and, considering all the clroumstanoen, this
murder is one of the nioet horrible that has
ever been committed in Philadelphia. The
murderer, and, from present appearances, his
scarcely less guilty wife, were taken almost in
the very act, with their hands still reeking
with the blood of their viotim; and there is
little doubt but that retributive justice, Swift
and sure, will be visited upon them for their
crime.
