THE DAiiiY KVENINO TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, APRIL G, 18G9. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. BDITOftlAL OPIMON8 OF TBR LKADINO J00RSALS VtOH CUHBBMT TOFICU COUl'lLKO EVKUT DAT FOR TBI BVRNINO TBLBOBAm. (Joort Idea In Irlr. Jrnn(. From the N. Y. WwliU It gives us pleasure t see tbat Mr. Grnt, Who unfortunately hag not at all timos either leisure or looliuatioii to see his own people, Is yet ever ready to iuter?ier a Rebsl's b1to. It is ridently the purpose of the President of the United States, In these Interviews, to draw wisdom fiorn the?e black sonroes, and yet, while the search for knowledge s ever commendable, It Is almost a reprehensible dis tinction on aooonnt of color to receive that in struction from a negro whioh is rejected, evaded and despleed in a white man. Mr. Orant i's willing to bear Kthiopta out of its own mouth. ' Only let him be sure that it is a genuine Southern negro, a real late emanci pated slare, a fully representative freed jnan,' and the more tbat Come to the White House ,the better. There are certain glib jnulattoes from Canada, Jamaioa, Boston, and other points frequently foisted on these Wash Ington delegations, and of these let Mr. Orant be wary. , They are not just out of slavery, and are not fair criteria, therefore, whereby to judge (hose that are. With this oaution, It is quite commendable in the President to Interview these blacks. Let him talk to as many field hands as he can, or rather let them talk a kind word or two will start 'em and it will sot be long before he can form rery sound opinions as to the correct solution of the negro problem. He will find it to He half way between the North and South lnoa paoity for self-government, as the South says, and necessity for protection, aa the North Bays. . A Mold National I'ollcy ltclntlvc to Cuba. rrm thi lT. Y. Herald. The eider of the President to Admiral Iloff, In oommand of our naval foroes at Cuba, to proteot all American oitizens, looks like busi ness and a decided policy. The high-handed outrages on American oitizens, to say nothing of the inhuman atrooities and - uncivilized mode of warfare of the Spaniards, called for this prompt and deoided aotion of General Orant. But It is to be hoped our Government Will go further than this and reoognise the independence of the Cubans. The resolution reported by the House Committee on Foreign Affairs should be passed by Congress at onoe, and the President should lose no time la aot Ing upon It. Our countrymen whose interests or oenvenlenoe compel them to reside tempo rarily in Cuba are at the present moment Elaoed in the greatest peril through the bitter atred for everything American whioh ani mates the mob of volunteers now ruling the Government and the island. To add to their Brplexity. diplomatio intercourse in their ehalf is denied to our Consul-General in Havana, and they must either look for redress in case of wrong to the tardy aotion of a Gov ernment three thousand miles away from the Boene, or cling to the aotion of our Govern ment in their behalf. In the emergenoy it is right and Just that our naval oommanders should be authorized to interfere in behalf of our oountrymen. There can be no doubt that the people of Cuba desire their independence and are deter mined to aoquire it at any oost. This muoh at least has been developed in the progress of the revolution. That faot alone should be suf ficient to oall for the sympathy and support of the Amerioan Government and people. Then the barbarity of the Spaniards in the war calls for the protest or interposition of this neigh boring republio, and, indeed, for the protest of the whole civilized world. But there is another important reason why the United States should take a bold national polioy with regard to Cuba. We have vast interests at Btake a large trade, and prospectively a muoh larger one, and a broad Amerioan polioy to carry out. The opportunity has come, as far as regards Cuba, to apply the Monroe doctrine of exolading, as far as practicable, European powers from this continent. What would suoh a man as Bismark do in suoh a cate f What would the man who seized and annexed the small German States, in carrying out a grand national polioy for Prussia, do under such circumstances ? What would Na poleon, England, or Russia do ? Proolatm the Independence of Cuba at onoe, and, if desira ble, annex. There would be no half-way measures or hesitation. What would General Jaokson have done that brave old American Who seised Florida when a colony of Spain on hich national grounds 3 Let Congress and President Grant take the same high ground and settle the question at onoe. Any half-way measures of a quasi recognition of belligerent rights may lead to diplomatio complications With Spain and other European powers. Gene 'ral Grant has done well in his order to Ad miral Iloff. Let us see if he has the stuff of Bismark or General JaokBon in him to go further, and settle at once and forever the Cuban question. The Interest on tlio lullic lcbt. ' J'rwm th N. V. World. ' , ' Mr. Boutwell makes his first demonstration as Secretary of the Treasury with an order to antlolpate the interest on the publio debt, Bubjeot to a rebatement of 6 per oent. In this step he makes clear his character as a fussy, impraotioable politician, and demolishes all 'pretensions which he may have had to beoon aidered a statesman and a finanoier. Government bonds are held for two pur poses. One class of holders have put their ' money in them as an investment. Are these , going to accept prepayment of their interest when it is accompanied with the practical defeat of the purpo3e for whioh the bonds were ' purohased T Another class of holders are speculators operating for a rise or fall, and at all times anxisns to use them as collaterals for temporary loan?, for which purpose they are in great favor. Bat they cannot be nego tiated, nor are they available as collaterals whenooupons not yet due have been removed. Therefore. Mr. Boutwell's order beoomes . merely a demonstration which the proprietor of a mook-auotion or gift-jewelry oonoern might practise, but which is discreditable in the Seoretary of the Treasury. 2 Mr. Boutwell has, we believe, been a small trader in his day. lie may be presumed, there lore, to k.pow something of the praotloes of business men in anticipating their paper. Do i not they often go into the money market and buy up their notes when they may, from any " cause, be purchased at a disoonnt? Mr. Baut- 1 wail hm 1 inrnlns of at least sixtv millions of gold over all needful reservations to meet suoh ontlngenoies sb may arise. The Government bas outstanding large amounts oi Donaa wmon It is pledged to redeem in gold at par. Bat these bondB may now be bought with gold at 85 percent, of their faoe. Mr. Boutwell might i,rw hnr and oanoel seventy-five millions of these bonds with about sixty-four millions of dollars, thus saving eleven millions at onoe to tie Federal Treasury, and four and a half millions in annual interest. Instead of this plain, business like proceeding, he drags the wovernnieu uiw o money shaver, and brings upon his adminis tration of tho Treasury Department the disgust of all Lusinesg wen. . '. . The country is now In condition to roelve I and dispose of a large proportion of the ear- I pins gold in the publio treasury never more so. But the wretobed bongler whom the radioalfl have forced upon Grant will not act no to the occasion, but oontlnue to unsettle ooLfidenoe until a panlo bring the business of the country abaut his ears. We have, indeed, fallen npon evil times when suoh great powers are reposed in Inoompetgnt hands. Albert Udwnrd. mid Abdul ir J 'rmn the A'. '. 7'imen. A fellow-feeling makes us wondrous kind. Nowhere, probably, since his triumphal tour in unsopniatioated America, has the Prince of Wales been so heartily received as in Con stantinople, where, says a recent London telegram, he has already arrived and been 'received by the Sultan with great splendor." It is touching, this greetiug between the young heir to the English throne and the de baucher of the Bosphorus; but it is only a fair exchange for the civilities Bhown to the latter by Kogland during his western tour. What revolutions, what revenges has not time brought about in the relations of oross and orescent 1 The heir to the orown of Ctar-de-Lion plays a friendly bout, not with maoe or ax, but with knife and fork, as boon com rades and fellow-trenchermen, with the suc cessor of Saladin. It was a token of changed times and manners when the "siok man of the Bosphorus" arose, took up his bed, and walked westward; when, against onstom and statute, and amid the doubtful head-shakings of conservative Mahometans, the Sultan eleo trlfied the faithful and made an epoch in Turkish history by gathering up his house hold and starting to visit the Christian dogs of London, Paris, and Vienna. It is hardly less a wonder when Albert Edward makes a new crusade to the infidels, and is received with open arms. Steam, telegraph, and the printing-press have at onoe revolutionized and saved the Ot toman Empire. It was the toss of a penny, but the other day, whether the siok man should die and be dissected, or undergo that injection of new blood which, with nations as with men, may make even those in the valley and shadow of death live again. Ever since the allied intervention drove off the Surgeon Czar who had prophesied the siok man's death, and who meant to make his word good, Tarkey has beoome a new nation. One might almost say the shock it took from its danger of death bad re-tontd its system. What we know, at all events, is that, with the example of travel and free interoourse which the Sultan set, and with the new nineteenth oentury Ideas whioh now permeate Mohammedanism, Turkey has aligned herself with the Western Powers in the maroh of progress, and is capable of any thing. "The time has come," said the Sultan, in that remarkable speech with whioh he opened his last year's Connoil, "when Turkish man ners must yield to European civilization." There was a noble omen in these pregnant words, themselves no doubt the fruit of the Sultan's tour. And that they were not idle is shown by the spirit with which Turkey re ceived the Paris solution of the Greek ques tion. Before the Conference met, the Porte aooeded to and urged its gathering; when it met, the Porte pledged its word to bow to the decision; and when that decision was made, it was acoepted. Another omen for the Ottoman Empire is the peaceful issue of the Grrojo-Crdtaa ques tion a matter surcharged with danger. Phi Ian thropically, some of us may have sympa thized with the Cretan insurgents, or depre cated the harsh measures whereby Omar Pasha crushed it; but praotioally we must admit that crushed it is. Sensational stories of new risings oannot avail against official facts; and, meanwhile, the mutual disarmament of Greece and Turkey has been followed by the significant appointment of - a new and ac ceptable Ambassador from Athens to Con stantinople. Outriding this storm, Turkey may look with more oonfidenoe to avoiding other breakers ahead. We do not know, however, that we are justified in diverging into these general re flections aprepos of the visit of the Prince of Wales. Very likely he knows little and oares less for the new prospects of Turkey; a man of different stamp from Napoleon III (who will not run from Paris to Havre without a deep political purpose), he may, for aught we know, journey eastward for mere amusement. Nevertheless, his visit will not, on that ac count, provoke the less oomment, or be watched and reported from day to day with less interest; and if personal enjoyment 6s the Prinoe's end, doubtless he will be able at least to testify that the Sultan's dinners are deli oiouB, and that, in Thaokeray's words, "his rort is DUDiime." Mr. .loluiNon at lAiioxvIlle. From' the A". 1'. Time. Mr. Johnson has most emphatically shown, at Knoxvllle, that he is not dead physically, at least but very much alive; aa the phrase goes, he is "alive and kicking." But he is kicking against the pricks in his useless tirades against events whioh history has made "fixed lauts." Revolutions never go back ward a philosophio prlnolple whioh, as Mr. Johnson ignored it during his administration, will probably help toward making him com paratively ignored now. Whatever influence the ex-President may hereater exert on local Tennessee politics, it is probable that his iufluenoe on national politics is on the wane. Fortified by hia Sosition as Chief Magistrate, and throwing is whole weight constantly upon that tre mendous lever of official patronage which the President controls, Mr. Johnson maintained through four years a stubborn struggle against overwhelming .numerical odds. But Mr. Johnson in the Presidency is a very different power from Mr. Juhuson out of the Presidency ; and, though he is fond of comparing himself to exiled Marcellus, while his rival is "Cicaar with the Senate at his heels," yet he himself must feel the differ ence in leverage-power on publio sentiment between his present and his former state. "Slave" though he calls himself, in referring to his past four years, it was a speoles of bondage whioh he was perleotly willing to have the Democratic Convention of July re impose upon him; and if he has escaped the yoke of the car of Mate, he must also be aware that he no longer draws that oar after him. Nor has Mr. Johnson anything new to say to the people any new view or idea upon which he may claim their attention. Ue is a very frank, earnest, and honeBt man; and, accordingly, his Presidential polioy has been repeatedly explained by him to the people in an intelligible way nobody could possibly mistake it and, having understood it com pletely, the people have repeatedly and em phatically condemned it. Mr. Johnson now says that he designs to devote the remainder of his life "to the vindication of his olliotal oareer." In other words, just as he vetoed for the twentieth time Congressional measures on oertaln grounds, and did not' fail to reite rate the reasons which had been overruled nineteen times before, so now we are to hear again those doctrines whioh the people have refused to sanction. Bat the political history of the past eight years shows nothing more conclusively than that the men and the parties who devote hemselves exclusively to reviving dead Irenes might as well give up ihe ghost at ooe. With new pojnis of departure, a de feated' organic tion may he rallied, but re hearrirg antediluvian dootrines Is fruitless, and, if hia past eaoriUcea to the Constitution ne to form, as Mr. Johnson threatens, the tuple of his remaining speech, these latter will ceaee henceforth to have anything more than an antiquarian, or, at least, a personal as distinguished from a public interest. About Kiirlou. J'rtmi tli? 1'ittnburrj (bmttirrrial. The indiscriminate use,' not to say abase of the pardoning power, has. been the subject of much complaint and criticism among the pf ople of Pennsylvania for many years, and while every citizen will ieadily admit that nineteen twentieths of the pardons granted operate directly against the peace, safety, and well-being of sooioty, still the evil is not only perpetuated, but increasing every year. It is a ooumon thing to throw the responsibility entirely upon the Governor, but this Js a grave mistake. It is true, the Executive holds this power alone, but when we consider the manner in which par dons are obtained, it will be found that the people are responsible, in a large measure, for the harm done to sooiety in this way. A corrupt Executive may, of his own voli tion, or through meroenary motives, grant pardons in unlimited nuinbsrs; but, under ordinary oironmstances, nine-tenths of the oonvicts turned loose upon sooiety are released through the influence and representations of parties claiming to be familiar with their char acter and standing, and who certify that they are proper subjeots for exeoutive clemency. Our political organizations, ramifying through every wafd, township, and county, and the facility with whioh party men of influence and oharaoter can be induoed to sign petitions for pardons, are mainly relied npon as the means for accomplishing the end sought. When an attorney fails to prove the innooenoe of his client, and the sentence of the law has been pronounced, he at onoe sets in motion all the maohinery available to seouTe a pardon. All the appliances, sooial and politioal, are brought into aotion. A wife; mother, or sister is sent to importune the Governor, letters from promi nent gentlemen are obtained, and petitions signed by oarefully seleoted names are for warded. It Is amazing how easily good men can be induoed to violate their dearest con viotions of right and justice in the matter of signing these petitions. We have known in stances where men who sat as jurors and judges, in the trial and oonviotion of criminals justly deserving of punishment, and unfit to mingle in sooiety, have signed petitions for their par -Ion even before they had been sent to the penitentiary. Those who undertake the work of obtaining a pardon do not count so much npon the number of names as upon the social and politioal influence repre sented by the signers. The masses are never appealed t&. Senators, Representatives, clergy men, lawyers, politicians, editors, and all sup posed to have weight with the Governor are approaohed by the pardon-seeker, and too often give their signatures thoughtlessly, recklessly, criminally. No oitlzen who has at heart the welfare of the sooiety in which he lives, should sign a petition for pardon unless he is oonvinced that the cubject hasbeen illegally convioted, or that the penalty imposed was not jastified by the oiroumstanoes of the oase and the nature of the crime. If this oourse were pur sued, improper pardons would be rare indeed. The Executive would hesitate long before ex tending clemency to a eonviot upon the mere representation of his counsel or the appeals of his family for sympathy. It is impossible, in the multiplicity of offioial duties, for the Gov ernor to examine into the facts of each oase (and in most cases the facts are carefully con cealed), and he simply acts upon the repre sentations of others. If these representations are truthful, no harm results to sooiety, and the party restored to liberty is saved from a grievous wrong. On the other hand, if the representations are false, and a great criminal is turned loose, the most serious conse quences ensue the law falls into contempt, crime inoreases, jury trials beoome a farce, and justice a mockery. For all this, then, the community is mainly responsible. They unlock the prison door and Bet the culprit free. Tbat the pardoning power should he abridged, or modified in some way, is the opinion of many who have given this subject their attention. In some States this has already been done as in Conneotiout, where the Legislature alone exercises the power; in New Jersey, where all pardons are submitted to a regular Board; and in Maine, where they are passed upon by an Exeoutive Counoll. In each of these States, the prerogative for merly belonged exclusively to the Gover nor, as in our own State now. These ohanges might or might not prove bane fioial in Pennsylvania. The Legislature would hardly be a safe depository for the power, while a Board of Pardons might be influenced quite as readily as an Exeoutive. These facts only make the evil more apparent, and suggest the difficulty of devising an ade quate remedy. In the meantime, let every citizen ponder well the responsibility resting upon him as an individual, and as a member of sooiety, when called upon to sign a petition for pardon. Let him consider well the conse quences, and give his signature only from knowledge of the case. When our men of influence, position, and power cease to lend their names for this purpose, the responsibility will be thrown solely upon the Exeoutive, and pardons will be rarely granted. CARRIACES.
