ImixirtflDrc of nn Allinni'C lietvrocn the LniUU states and A situ From "J!r(ck" romeroy'a JV. Y. Democrat. Mr. Cesare Moreno ia an Italian gentleman who, after liayiDg devoted half hia life to the etndy of AbU, demres to devote the other half in enlightening us upon that subject, lie has particular Ideas as to tho groat advantages we would derive from a regular intercourse with thatcountry; and what we have heard from his plan induces us to think that hia objnut ia a praiseworthy out, and deserves encourage ment. There ia no doubt that -Asia, situated as it is between Rvupian encroachments and Eag liBh spoliation, would certainly grasp eagerly the hand of any friendly power who would interpose itself between the two invaders. This tank is a noble on, and it is in that lilit that it oug,ht to be looked upon by our people and by our (lovommont. To do it successfully, however, we want a European ally sufficiently rich and powerful to asbist us in establishing in Asia that coun terpoise which ia known in diplomatic circles as the balance of power. If Mr. Seward was lookirg carefully upon the map of Europe, he would certainly find one. An alliance of tint kind would give us in the eastern and south ern part of Asia an influence which would ne cessarily be felt in our relations with China, esdined, to Leonine at some future time, one of the greatest tributaries of the United States. Mr. Cesare Moreno is preparing, upon hia travels in Asia, a book, wuiuh will ba out in a couple of weeks. If that work contains, as we think, useful and reliable information upon the subject alluded to, we shall be happy to give a summary of it to our readers, who will then be enabled to judge for themselves of its importance, aa well aa of the character of the mission of Mr. Moreno in this country. The Cry of tlie South. irom the If. Y. Tribune. The Georgia Nationalist appeals to the loyal men of the North to organize four societiea to promote immigration of Northern men into the South in communities able to protect themselves. It proposes that the first society shall comprise the New Eugland States, and apply itself specially to settling South Caro lina, Georgia, and Florida. Thj second may include New York, New Jersey, and Pennsyl vania, and operate in coloniziog Virginia and ' North Carolina. The third any comprise Ohio, Michigan, Iudi.tna, and Illinois, and should work in settling Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. The fourth society should labor in Wisconsin, Miuuesota, Iowa, aud Kansas, for tho settlement of Arkansas and Texas. The purpose of these organi.atioua would be to send trusted agents into the South to ascertain the opportunities for busi ness which are now to open there by reason of the low prices of lacd and the abundance of labor. Much of the land, it is said, cau now be had for a dollar or two an acre, which would havo sold for twenty dollars bafore the Rebellion, and will be worth that price again aa soon as industry shall revive and the country become productive and peaceful. The allure of many of the efforts to turn emigra tion Southward, which were made immedi ately after the close of the war, was due to the delay in settling the Reconstruction question; to the facts that the settlers scattered too much, not aiming to keep near enough to gether to protect each other; that they bought property when it was from three to ten times as high as it is now, running in debt for most of it, and losing all with its decline;-planted cotton on a falling market, without calculating on the fall; were inexperienced in Southern industry, and were set back by two suboessive unusually bad seasons. Reconstruction, how ever, is now settled. Property has fallen to its lowest possible point. General Grant will soon give security and peace to all. Emi grants going in communities will avoid the risks to person and capital incurred by those going alone. It is necessary to the stability and peace of the country that Northern emi gration into the South shall be undertaken ou a scale as national and imposing as the North ern invasiion of the South by hostile armies duriDg the Rebellion. There are in all these States strongly Republican counties, -'-need only a few Norther iS.to org; -- --" vole and maintain loyal ascendancy throughout entire districts whicd otherwise must be abandoned to Rebel and reactionary ascendancy. One county in Geor gia, for instance, cast only 58 votes for Grant, though it had 1500 colored voters. There was but one white Republican in the county, aud he cared not to endure the dangers of a can vass. A few Northern communities in each county, sufficient to organize churches and schools, stores and mills, and to introduce Northern newspapers, would suffice to sustain the loyal sentiment in every such county. We need 3000 Northern voters and workers in Florida, 4000 in South Carolina, 5000 each in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, aud Louisi ana, and 10,000 each in Virginia, North Caro lina, Georgia, and Texas. If an immigration like that which pours Westward could How into the South for one year only, the Southern States would be delivered from the nightmare which now oppresses thoir politk'3 and indus try. Who will organize and undertake the work ? It must be begun from motives of patriotism as well as prolit; must be actually superintended by men of influence, ability, and vigor, and must be carried through with an industry and energy like that with which we carried on the great struggle for the Union itself. Are the right men and women ready to volunteer for the work ? If they are, it can and will be done. The Indiana Jail Niinlcrs. From the AT. Y. Tribune. The recent outrage at New Albany, Indiana, where a party of men forced their way into the county jail and hanged four prisoners who were awaiting trial for an expresa roUbery, is one of the most mortifying but at the same time one of the most instructive occurrences which we have had to chronicle for a long time. It is not so much that our Govern ment seems to have failed in making rea sonable provision for the safety of prisoners who were Known to be threatened by the mob, and to whom we guaranteed a fair trial when we demanded their extradition from Canada; but oar fault liea much deeper than that. The Renos aud Anderson would never have been lynched if the people had trusted in the nprightnesa of the courts. For years pat-.t justice ia said to have been almost unknown in certain counties of Indiana. The forms of law have been a mockery; trial has been a farce; judges have been corrupt; juries have been forsworn; crime haa organized and taken the administration of justice into ita own Lands; members of gangs of thieves and highwaymen have held np their heads with the most respectable people; there haa been so security for life or property, no punish ment for the most glaring outrages. A horde of banditti, such as have given a sad notoriety 10 Oneida cmiity Ju our own State, appear to Lave spread over portions of Indiana, and wrested the machinery of the courts to their fell purposes. They have not been content with usii.p the poniard of the assassin, but have seiied upon the sword of Justice herself. Much as we may deplore the crime by which the citizens have avenged these outrages, we can hardly wonder at it. They felt that the law gave them no redress; brute violence was their only resource. The root of the evil Is a corrupt judiciary. The remedy is at the ballot-box. So long aa we Btain the ermine by throwing it over the foul shoulders of an nnjust judge, so long must we expect to see the bench despised and murder usurping the funotions of the law. The roassaore at the Indiana jail ia full of les sons for New York. How long will it be, if we keep on our present course, before vigi lance committees will break open our own prisons and execute sunimnry vengeance upm criminals whom they dare not trust to veual officers of the law f Oiistitiifionalily or t!:e Lcpal-tnidcr Act. M om the If. Y. Herald. There is some anxiety in the public mind to know what the decision of the Supreme Couit of the United States may Le on the constitu tionality of the Legal-tender act in the cases now pending before tho court on that ques tion. It is, undoubtedly, an important ques tion, involving not only the powers of the Government, but the obligations and transac tions of trade and the value of property, both past and present. Still, we think there is no need for apprehensiou or disturbance of biioi neps; for whatever the technical interpretation of the Constitution or law may be, there is an imperative and a higher law that must govern in the matter, and that ia the law of necessity the law of public welfare. It was this law tLat led to tie Lone of the legal-tender cur rency to preserve the Government and the life of the republic in a great crisis, and it will now save the country from the shock of an nulling the act of Congress and declaring the greenbacks worthless. Of course we do not know what the decision of the Supreme Court may be; but if even adverse to the constitu tionality of tho act it would be comparatively inoperative, for the great and general interests of the country would prove superior to the dic'um of the court. lint we suppose the court will be governed by higher considera tions than those of doubtful constitutional or legal technicalities, and that under th;i ab normal and extraordinary circumstances sur rounding the issue and operation of the legal tenders it will look to tin public welfare. On several occasions iu the history of the country, under the pressure of great financial difficulties, specie payments huve been sus pended, and it id well known that thu laws were powerless to compel the banks to pay coin. The grime has occurred in almost all other countries. The law of necessity is stronger than all other laws. It will prove so in this case. Mr. Evarts, iu his able argu ment before the court, maintains that while the several States are prohibited by the Consti tution from emitting bills of credit, thi is not forbidden to the Ftderal Oovermnent, aud that by implication it has the power to emit bills of credit and to declare the value thereof. "Let the end be legitimate," he says, "lot it be within the scupe of the Constitution, aud all the means which are appropriate, which are plainly adapted to the end, which are not prohibited, but consistent with the letter and spirit of the Constitution, are constitutional. Under that the Bank of tho United States wa3 sustained in time of peace. Under that the embargo was sustained in time of war." Then he lays down as a proposition that "to determine what shall bo the money of a coun try, and how it Ehall serve its purposes a3 a measure of value and a medium of exchange, including its efficacy as a legal tender in satis faction of debts, belongs to government. So, too, to determine whether anything besides money shall be a legal tender in satisfaction of debts among its subjects or citizens be longs to government." Then Mr. Evarts argues that the law can no longer be ques tioned under the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution; for that haa ratified every act of Congresa relative to the public debt, aud the legal-tenders are a part of the debt. That amendment declares, in effect, that the laws passed during the stress of war in aid and sup port of the public ciedit shall not ba op tioned. . . The Supreme Court y':or lt3 d?cl31u if it finds a -"'utional difficulty, or it may one not directly bearing upon the broad iBsue, to save the country from linauoial trou ble; but it will be better if the question can be settled at once and forever that the Legal tender aot is valid and cannot be disturbed. Public opinion is strongly in favor of such a settlement of the question. Even the on-to-specie-paynient theorists are alarmed at the consequences should the Legal-tender aot be declared unconstitutional, lint, as we said, we think there is no reason for apprehension, and that under any circumstances the law of necessity will uphold the value of our green back currency. A Curious Congress ou Caleb Cushiiijj. tYtnn the 2V. 7. Timet. Since the day when Colonel Campbell made his masteily Mexican move, including the fotrategio advance on New Orleans and the St. Charles Hotel, there has been nothing in diplomacy like this excitement over Caleb Cushing. Where has he gone ; what to do; and w ho pajs the bills '! Congress ia iu a fever over it; so are the correspondents ; so is tho press; so is the public. Everybody in general, and Mr. Hunter, of Indiana, in particular, is wrung wir.h curiosity. With the Prince of Denmark, Mr. Hunter cries, "Lot ma not burst iu ignorance, but tell me why," etc., etc. Unmoved either by the torturing paugs of a curious Congress or by the spectacle of Mr. Hunter as "Hamlet," "meanwhile," says our Washington correspondent, "Mr. Seward i-t said to enjoy the muddle very much, acd delights in telling people, as he will tell Cou gress, w here Mr. Cashing ha3 not gone to." He has gone to Loudon, to put his finger iu the Alabama pie; or no, to Madrid, to drive a trade for Cuba; or no, again, but he is really pone to Hogota to dij a Dutch Gap through the IstLmus, and let the Pacific iuto the Atlantic. Aud, after all, what if he had gone neither to England nor to New Grenada, nor yet to Spain, but to Madagascar, to exchange that plated diplomatic coll'ee-pot fur a solid one, under pain of declaring war f Congress, in this grievous uncertainty, cudgels its dull brains for a solutiou, ami popping upon Spain (why poor Spain 1) sus pends its rules that Mr. Hunter may ask the Secretary of Sate it he haa sent "any com mit pioner" thither, and if so, why, aud ou what wage?, and whether he "finds himself," and how he (Mr. Seward) is going to raise the money to foot the bills. Now, suppose the Secretary says no not any; not any Com missioner to Spain. Iu what better plight is the House f Why, on Mr. Hnuter's plan, that body will have to print a blank form of query, and then put in successive names instead of Spain (as England, New Grenada, Madagascar, Cannibal Isles), till it hits right an amusing geographioal puzzle for boys at Christmas time, but exasperating to a curious Congress. The truth ia and we oiler the solution gratis Cpi'rSS Bivifit tvjne out bluntly, suspend. its rules, and ask the Secretary plainly, "Where has Mr. Cushing gone, how many trunks did he take, and what are his wages, and all about it." And then, if Mr. Seward should reply, as he did the other day to Mr. Wood's resolution about the Alabama discus sion, that a direct answer would be "prema ture and Incompatible with publio interests," Copgresa could console itself with the reilec tionthat, like Seinpronins, it had mora thin "commanded success" it had ''deserved it." Our Ken Itulcr. From the X. Y. World. It is Stated in the New York Tribune that there is now in Washington "a negro with genuine kinky wool," who claims a seat iu Congress from a Louisiana district, and is not "unlikely to get it." Such being the proba bility, let us consider the powers of this gen tleman on being sworn in. He is to apportion representation and direct taxes "among the several States which m ly be included within this Union" uot to sp-iak of those now out of this Union, as Vir ginia, Texas, aud Mississippi; to deter mine, in any given case, whether a member elect from New York, Ohio, or ludUua is eligible to a seat besiile him; to raise reve nue; to override vetoes; U lay taxis; to bor row money on the credit of the United States; to regulate commerce; to establish a uuiform rule of naturalization for the countrymen of Emmet aud of Schiller; to coin money; to promote the progress of scieuce and useful arts; to define the law of nations; to declare war; to rahe armies; support a navy; make rules for the government and regulation of the lADd and naval forces, not omitting to regulate Sherman, Sheridan, Farragut, West I'oiut., and Annapolis; to exclusively govern Wash ington City and the District of Columbia hail Columbia; and, in fine, "to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for car rying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Consti tution in the Government of the United States, or in any department or offioer thereof." With these powers we do not hear that this gentleman, "with genuine kinky wool," ever fought nobly, though he is to make war aud rule armies; nor, though he is "to promote the progress of science and useful arts," do we hear of any mental coruscations on hia part; indeed, it is even stated by the New York Tribune to the contrary that "he does not be long to the best educated class of Freuch negroes in New Orleans," this gomman dou't; nor, though he is to lay taxes, raise revenue, borrow money, and coiu coin, does it seem but that he has on occasion sipped of the soup and munched of the bread and the beef provided by the Fieeduien's Bureau. But then, on the word of tho Tribune, h ha3 ".i complexion that might fairly enough or (darkly enonch) indicate at least thrte fourths Alricr.u bloo.l." This is enough. THE NATIONAL DEB T. ICcuiarks of FiciiKtor 1'iiliclt on (he lilllllM'4'S. Tbc following look place in th'j United Ss'.atcs Soua'e ou Monday la-.l: Mr. Caltell I luk the consent of tho Snat j to oiler n resolution at this lime. 1 seud it to the dek to be read. The resolution was read, as follow: liiSilxsdl, That the Semite receive v.i'.h pro found regret the proposition of the President in his autiuiil nifssiiue to repudiate a portion of the national obligations, and ief?itrd this and nil forms ot repudiation as a national crime. Na tional honor requires the payment of the public debt iu the utmost good tiiiih to a. I creditors ut home aud abroiid, not ouly according to the letter but the spirit of the laws unJcr which it was created. Mr. Caltell Mr. President, it seems to nie that the extraordinary propositions contained in the President's annual message, fitvonu" the lepudiatiou ot the public debt, should not ro to tho country without ti prompt and decided ex pression by the Senate of their iirj('ialiii"d disapprobation. And it is with this view I oiler the resolution just rend. Lest the full scope and menninc of tlili p'lssane in the iue?snpo muy have escaped the utleutiuu of some Senators, I beg to mid it itiiiu iu jo ar hearing: 'It muy be assumed that the holdnrs of om fecurilica have already received uuou their bonds a larger amo int th- iheir o.-iiiinal in vestment, measure'1 W a t-'ol(1 tandmd. Upon this stuteiii""' ol facts it would scorn but j'ist mill iuit;ible that the fix per cent, interest now paid by the Government should be applied to the reduction of the principal in semi-annuil instalments, which in sixteen years underlie months would liquidate the entire national debt. Six per cent, in gold would at pie eut rates be e.jual to nine per ce.t. in currency, and equiva lent to the payment of Idc debt one aud a half times in a tiactiou less than beventeen yeais. This, in connection witii nil theotuer advantages di rived from their investment, would alTorl to the public creditors a fair and llberul compensa tion for the use of their capital, and with tins they fbould be Ea'istied. The lessons of tuo past admonish the lender that it is not well to be over anxious in exacting troni tho borrower rigid compliance with the letter of the bond." Mr. President, here is a plinple, plain proposi tion emanating troni the Preideut of the United fctates iu his message to (Joncrress, nud advo cated as juHflnd equitable, lo pay to the public creditor simply tho intercbt provided for by law and stipulated in the bond for a given number ot jears, and at the expiration of that period to repudiate the eutire principal of the debt. It passes belief that a proposition so monstrous as this, so disgraceful, in my opinion, to ihe uuliou, so damaging to ks credit at honr an 1 ubroud, should emanate from tho Chief Executive of this Government, wbee duty it is to guard the honor and lakh ot the nation rather taau to tiunish the one and to break the other. No mstu in the United States, so far as my kno. ledge extends, has been foiind hithertJ bold enough to advocate open, und s','ui ed, an 1 uu qualiaed repudiation. 'o in Jefensible a propo sition us this has been reserved for Audrey Johnson, as a ntting climax to the wick jdne-s und lolly ot his administration. Mr. 1'iesident, the people of the United Sta'ei wilt repudiate the repudiator. In ooiut or fact they have already done so. At tue recent elec tions the people of the United Mutes invested with all the executive und legislative power of this uution the party winch had the in lultness to declare Hguiusl ul I forms of repiid ii'ion us a crime, und to assert that the obligations of the aliollul Government shoula be paid ia cool faith to the uttermost favihinir. And, Mr. Piei di nt, ihe people of the United State i will stand by iheir erdict. The deDt is a burden-otne one, unquestionably; but it will bo paid: it will be paid inuntully aud honestly; nay more, sir, it will be paid cheerfully, reiuemberi.ig that it is the final instalment ot the price paid for ihe preservation of the gloiious in.-.titutions iiiiK--whieh we live us a pr eeless inheritance lor our children and our children's children. Mr. I're-iiieiit, my obp'et iu oileriuir this rcso tiou was that ve should have from this body a prompt ileuial of the doc.rme contained in thin message to no out witn it to the world. A leu'is laiivo ennetrnent such as the j dnt solution proposed by the Senator Irom Vermont, which was on our tables at the lad session, will neces-t-anly brine up tome debute, or require some tune, ut any rate, in i's pas-ue. Tun IIjusc of I'cpn sciitmiveM, I think, pursued the same course which I have uo proposed; they intr i dueed and passed a resolution of their own body, und 1 felt that it was exceediiifily desirable that the Senate should at once promptly decluic it views in relation lo this proposition. Moreover, sir, this proposition of the Presi dent ditlers iroin all others. There Is no ques tiou in this proposition as to whether the fcobt shall be paid ia greenbacks or in coin. The suggestion is that it ehall uot be paid at all; and it occurs to me that to open and undisguised a propesltion as t hia ouijbt to be met, at lea-t, by a prompt and decided expression of the Senate of the United Stales ugaiubt it. When the other question comes up, it In volvc. perhaon, some points on which there will be iouud dilleu'ucvs of opinion. As to this, I think there can scarcely bo found a solitary Individual In tin Senate of the United Stales who will not (lis none to the message of tho Preolden', at any rate a' I iniderstnnd it; and therefore I sluul I prtler that tho Senate would rizico to pass th! resolution now rather than re'er it. My motion for rdeience was nt the suggestion of a friend. I leave the question entirely for the judgment of the Senate. Mr. Hi li'irielct" Will thfl Senator allow me to nk him oue iirstliQ ? Pid toe people decide, in voting upou (his rosolu'lon, in favor of p'ljiiiu the debt io tiotd or lit the iawlul money of the United S'Btcs? Mr. Cattell I think they decided thtit the resolu hui or tho Cniciso platform wai very much preferable to that sued in New Vork. I thinK tlint was tli" pirat. d"ci"iou made on that occasion, lint, Mr. President, as 1 remarked iu ri-iiiL', when lt shall become necessary to discu s thi question In nil its length and bread h, I shall bo prepared to take my uround upou lt witli as in -loll frankness as the Scmttor from Indiana will. Slv object was wh it 1 have stated. I should be cld l hive s, vote lo-d-iy on thU resolution, but I submit to the bolter judirmeut of Irieitd nroiitid me, vtho think it is better to refer the resolution to the Committee.
