EDITORIAL OriHIOWS OF TBI LSaDlNO JOURSfALD CP05 CURRENT TOPICS OOMPILEP KVEBT ( DAT FOR THE XTBIHlta TBL&ORAm. MR. MOTLEY IN ENGLAND, from the X. Y. BorM. It ia pretty clear, from the tone of the Eng lish journals in ooniineutiug upon the recent Bpeeoh of Mr. Samuer ooaoeruing the Alabama olftimfl that Mr. Motley will by no means enter Into Mr. Rererdjr Johnson's glowing inherit ance of dinners, public and prirate. If ever there was a mau upon whom Kagland con ferred that dearett of her liberties the , freedom of her mahogany Mr. Johnson was that man. Krerj kuite and fork iu the three kingdoms was put at his serrloe. It used to he said of West Indian hospitality, in the days before emancipation out down the noblo liberality of the planters who never presented a bill and never paid one that, if it pleased a guest to sit on the saddle of mutton and put his feet in the soup tureen, nobody would ob ject to his doiDg so. t This somewhat violent figure of speeoh hardly exaggerates the toleranoe the more than tolerauoe, the cordiality extended to Mr. Johnson as a diner-out by all England. Of course, we all understood that this gushing temper of our cousins expressed not only their appreciation of the sooial merits of Mr. Johnson as a man, but their eagerness to . make friends over the dead past with Mr. Johnson's country nien. The Johnson-Stanley treaty may be said to have been signed in 'Great Britain amid a feu-de-joie. of ohampagne 'corks, and to a running aooompaniment of Sheffield ontlery beating out applause on Worcestershire crockery upon, fifty thousand British dinner-tables. The rejection of the Johnson-Stanley treaty toy the American Senate will infallibly change all this. Ills all very well for Lord Claren--don to get up and pretend that he has private assurances to the effect that the treaty was rejected at Washington only for a political purpose. Lord Clarendon knows better. The iingiish press know better. The instinct of the English people will teach them better. Mr. Motley, whose chief claim to his appoint ment (apart from the faot that it would embit ter sorely the retirement of Mr. Seward at Auburn) seems to have been a notion that he would have peculiar social advantages in Englaud, will find the face of English society set against him. lie will be civilly treated, of course. Bat all Englishmen who respect themselves will feel that to show any extraor dinary courtesy to him would be to humiliate their country before a rival nation whioh has just taken the plainest possible way of signi fying its deep distrust of Englsh statesman ship, if not its positive hostility to England. Tn is inevitable result of the aotion whieh we have just taken makes it still more de sirable than before that any future delibera tions on the subject of the Alabama claims should be conducted, not by Mr. Motley in London, but by Mr. Fish in Washington. SPANISH WARFARE. From the X. Y. Tribune, bhould the report be confirmed that Count Valmaseda, commander of the Spanish forces in the Eastern Department of Cuba, has actually issued the proclamation that came last week by telegraph, the faot will do more than could anything else not only to alienate "the sympathies of the world from Spain and warm all hearts towards her insurgent foes, but to dash the youBg hope of her own resur rection. Aooording to that proclamation, every .native male over fifteen years of age, found away from his residence without sufficient cause, Is to be executed. Every uninhabited dwelling, and every inhabited dwelling where a white flag shall be undisplayed, is to be burned. All women, absent from their homes, must oome to Bayamo or Jiguani; if they do not come of their own free choice, they will be forced to oome. This is simply barbarous. It is war in the old brutal style; war against all the modern principles ot war; war as it was oonducted in the Middle Ages. It suggests the policy of Philip II. The barbarity Is marked by that characteristio of utter con tempt for the subjeot which signalized the operations of that most Catholio prince. We have been trying bard of late to think well of Spain, hoping sometimes against hope. We have read over again her history with kindly eves: we have made generous allow ance for her difficulties; we have pitied her sorrows, cheered her endeavors, put the most charitable construction on her blunders, esti mated at their fullest value her national qualities, thrust forward boldly the promising features in her new efforts at administration, praised her Ministers, borne witness to the good oonduot of her people, hailed with enthu siasm every indication of improvement In her oivil system, greeted with hearty thanks her aspirations after liberty of thought, worship, and speech, bespoken for her the indulgence of the publio opinion, and maintained a stout oonviotion that her painful travail would issue In her deliverance from the anoient thraldom of tradition; and now, in a moment, she turns upon us and bids ns believe ourselves grievously mistaken. She is the same old Spain her calumniators, as we thought them, declared her to be haughty, supercilious, oruel, reckless, soornfulof the opinion and the feeling of the oivilized world. . She oonld not, of ooarae, be blamed for wish ing to retain her possessions. Every nation On earth does that. 411 dismemberment is painful. , We do not blame her for employing foroe to keep so preciwus a tributary as the Island of Cuba. Evry nation on earth would do the same. But she is to blame for using foroe as no nation on earth would do who values its fair fame. War, unhappily, is not likely to pass away from the usages of people oalling themselves civilized and bearing the name of Christian. Nay, it seems to be as prevalent as ever. The art of war is studied, the machinery of war is perfeoted. to an extent dreamed of till this generation. The engines of destruction are numerous and fear ful beyond nreoedent. But. at the same time. It Is not the monster it used to be. If not divested of its Dbvsloal terrors, it is to some rWrea divested of its moral hideousness There ia in its oonduot far less of hate and vln- Aintlveness than there was. Civilization comes in to proteot all but actual belligerents iu life ni nrorjertv. Humanity comes in to save even belligerents from all unnecessary suf fering through exposure, wounds, and cap tlvitr. War is entered into reluctantly. nnrt-r nrotest. aud with something like an apology to the spirit of a better age Thu flnmnnt of murder is sternly pro hiblted and kept down.

Least of all can a nation afford to disregard it that like Spain, labors under the reproach of being behind the rest, and claims sympathy onthesooreof her purpose to oast the re proach off. She should lead the rest, and j us tify her title to praise, as well ai her promise of attainment, by showing how well she ap preciates the lessons that olvillzatlon has I leaintd.

They who hoped to see her live will rejoice to see her die. A CIIANQK OF CABINET THE ONLY SAFETY FOR TIIE ADMINISTRATION. From the X. )'. llcrahl. When General Grant commanded the armies of the Union, victory perohed upon bis ban ners, because no man had the right to ques tion his acts or demand his purposes. But the Presidency is a different thing. Congress has reduced it to a mere second mate's posi tion, and every party leader who controls a seotion in Congress claims the right to issue orders and to know all the plans. To make the matter still worse, these political section masters are not agreed among themselves. Each is jealous of his competitors, and the result is confusion. The Washington des patches all agree that there is muoh dissatis faction among the politicians there, and the Western newspapers are beginning to find fault with the President for this state of things. There is ground for complaint, and it lies in the fact that the recognized head of the Cabinet, though a very worthy gentleman of the old school, is entirely unfitted by his Ideas, habits, and tastes for the post he fills. The fact is, General Grant is not a politician and does not wish to become one. He fought many splendid battles and won great victo ries, for which a grateful people have elected bim to the first offioe in their gift, and are willing to pass over his shortcomings, lie cannot at this time take hold in an entirely new field and become a great worker, and his disposition, therefore, is to let matters take their course in Cabinet council. He has no foreign or domestic policy to urge, no plans to carry out, no ambitious designs to foster, and therefore he has confidence in those he has called around him. But for this very reason he should have the strongest possible Cabinet he can construct. This would be the best evi dence that he entertains a lively interest in the welfare of the nation, and a signal return for the confidence reposed in him. It is ad mitted on all sides that the present leader of the Cabinet is not np with the ideas of the time, and though eminently respectable and desirous to do all that Ilea in his power, he holds no grasp on the heart of the country, and is incapable of marking out and carrying into execution a policy lor the administration. The President, therefore, should not court disaster by procrastination and unseemly delay. The voices from the East and from the West are signs of the rising spirit of the times, and must be heeded if we would not invite defeat. The unanimity with whioh the Senate and the whole country have responded to Mr. Sumner's recent masterly utterances on our foreign polioy points to him as the best man to place in the position of Secretary of State and at the head of the Cabinet; and recon struction of the Government should at once be made, not only by calling him to office, but also by consulting him as to the persons who may be called to hold the other portfolios. With Mr. Sumner in lead as the working man of the administration, the President oan feel a confidence that no gross mistakes will be com mitted like those of waiting to know what England says before we deolde upon our polioy in the Cuban question, or drawing up the in structions of Minister Motley; and without taking upon himself the supervision of every step in foreign or domestic affairs, he may be sure that his administration will not stand before the country convicted of inoapaoity and meritorious of defeat. MR. TUNCH AND MR. J0HN30N. From, the X. 1'. Times. "Mr. Punch hopes," says the organ of that estimable humorist, "that something in the shape of an English tribute will be offered to that kind-hearted gentleman, Mr. Reverdy Johnson, before he is allowed to go away. He has been assiduously doing his best to create the international sympathy whioh we desire to believe exists; and if ever a man came under the provision of the beatitude about peace makers, Mr. Johnson ia the man." This ia the kindliest we might almost say the only kindly -ublio tribute from his English friends whioh Minister Johnson has reoeived. It is remark able that, while he has been overflowing with good words, fraternal pledges, and generous prayers for the prosperity of England, he has in return received rattier less inanKS, or even acknowledgment, than a gruffer ambassador is wont to secure. Take, for example, Mr. Roebuck's case. That gentleman certainly oould not have felt aggrieved had the Amerioan Minister refased to cultivate hla aoquaintanoe. But what was the fact? Mr. Johnson saw mm alar on even from London to Sheffield ran to him, and metaphorically if not literally fell on his neck and kissed him. Instead, however, of aocepting the role of repentant prodigal, Mr. Roebuck, at the banquet whioh Mr. Johnson said he wonld have attended even lor his sake alone, abused and vilified the Amerioan people; a few days later, in a publio speech, he expressed the desire to see America torn asunder; and yet a few months later, he gave his countrymen this dying legacy, "Beware of America." And this will stand very well for one exam ple of fifty of the reception Mr. Johnson's oourtesif s have met. Thy have been almost uniformly, and often rudely, rebuked. The liDgiisU press lias joined in a common cry against him, even the Edinburgh tieview now taking up the refrain. Ills desire "to create international sympathy" has been described as "soft sawder," "soft soap," and, at best, "soft sentiment." Now, while it was very well for the Amerioau publio to resent what they justly considered their Envoy's mlsap preoiation of tlieir feelings, it is quite a dif ferent matter for the British pnblio to sneer at his friendly manifestations as either Insincere or maudlin. Mr. J-hoBon has made sad mis takes, but not on the side of insincerity, since he evidently believes what he says. "Mr. Punch," therefore, does a tatr thing when he demands for Mr. Johnson "kind regards tied np in a large paroel." The duty of rebuking Mr. Johnson for over-demonstratlvenesa is not an English doty; and, Indeed, we shall not be surprised if, wheu he really leaves English ouvirr, uo uuinins a wore generous token of appreciation than hitherto from those whom he sought to please, even at the cost of mor tally offending his own oountrymen. THE QUESTION OF C IHN RECOGNITION AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT. From the X. Y. Herald. Aooording to the Washington correspon- ur;"' uiwurj risn nas been ventilating a little the question of reoognizing the bellige rent rights of the Cubans, lis was brought out, it Beema, by the report that the British Government contemplated such recognition as a good stroke of policy for the purpose of establishing British influenoe and promoting oommeroe with Cuba, and, in a measure, to head off the United. States there. Mr. Fish has no information to confirm such a report, aud thinks such action ou the part of England not at-all piohsble. Our Government, it is" a1dtbat is Mr. Fish, we suppose believes tbat the British Government would not b iikcij iu k nj si ep mat would bring' it Into collision with Soain or an nth.. pean power wnue me Alabama claims remain suspended over it. Then, it is said, so far trow art aamg the recognition of Cuban belli gerent rights y iingiaut, he wou'd regard it as a favorable circumstance, and calculated to lean te me eariy aoqiisltiou of Caba by u; ""jury oi tsritisn com merce. We take It ror granted that these are the views of our Seoretary of State, for they are nli a pa niavl.i I i.t AnI i. 1 i n vuBipuivuntiu nut viu'ltt ClKHlg H. V Afff 60 with mm, aud think it not likely that the jiriuau vjovemmeut is contemplating at pre sent the recognition of Cubau belligerency, nut not ior the reasons he assigns. Eagland is not afraid of a war with Ppatu or any other European power for suoh action. There is not the least reason to fear. Spain is not in a condition to go to war, and would not make that a cause or war. Nor would any other European power trouble Itself to maintain the authority of Spain over Cuba, or interfere in the least in the matter. A war with Spain seems to be the bugbear in Mr. Fish's mind. He has not the least comprehension of the situation or limited power of Spain nor of the Cuban question in an international point of view. Though a respectable gentleman, he Is a timid old fogy, and utterly unfit for Seore tary of State of this mighty republlo. Though, speaking of Spain going to war with England should the belligerent rights of Cuba be re cognized by the latter, he evidently bad in his timid mind the silly apprehension of such an event with this oonntry .should our Gov ernment take the step first. Such puerility, timidity, and want of comprehension in our Seoretary of State are enough to make every Amerioan indignant and blush for shame for the humiliating position his oountry is placed in. If even England were disposed to take the first step in reoognizing the Cubans as belli gerents, there is no reason, as Mr. Fish justly says, to dread that. Indeed, we ought to look at it favorably. Nor do we think it would prevent the acquisition of Cuba by the United States hereafter; for that is written down in the book of manifest destiny. But England might gain great advantages both to her com merce and prestige in Cuba and throughout the Antilles, ana in that point of. view the British Government is quite capable of com' prebending its interests and acting upon them should no higher political considerations deter it from such aotion. England will never aot from sympathy with the oruelly oppressed and struggling patriots of Cuba; but she might from self-interest, should she Bee her way clear to head off the United States and to weaken our influence over the Cubans and throughout the Antilles. As a reproach to our timid and we.k Government, we could almost wish that England would take the lead in reoognizing the Cubans as belligerents. We oould wish this were it not for the shame and damaging effect it would bring upon our oountry. Let us talk no more of the Monroe doctrine, of sympathy with any brave people struggling for their independ ence, of an American system of polioy for the American Continent, or of the power and dominating grandeur of our great republic, if we do not promptly acoord to the Cubans bel ligerent rights. There never was a worse and more cruel despotism than that of Spain over a people who are our neighbors, whose lnte rests are closely united with ours, and who have no ties or sympathy with their rulers or the old European world; yet we hesitate to ao- eerd the boon ot belligerent rights to them. The world will treat ns with contempt for our weakness and stupidity; for we fail in magna' nimity, in comprehending our own interests. and in perceiving when the hour of destiny points so plainly to the opportunity and ne cessity for aotion. Would to heaven that we had at this partioular time an Amerioan states man like Bismaik or Napoleon at the helm of a flairs I Then Cuba would soon be free, and the foundation would be laid for a grand and progressive American policy worthy of a mighty nation. THE INTERVIEW BETWEEN PRESIDENT GRANT AND GENERAL LEU. From the X. Y. World. If it be true that the oonsultation between these distinguished chieftains, on Saturday, took place at the request of the President, and that his purpose was to avail himself of Gene ral Lee's advice respecting the steps most suit able to be taken for restoring Virginia to her Federal relations, it is the most judiolous and creditable thing whioh General Grant has done sinoe his aoeession to offioe. General Lee is doubtless better acquainted with the actual publio sentiment of Virginia than any other man in the State; and the measures whioh the President may adopt will be suooessful just in proportion as they acoord with, and are sup ported by, that publio sentiment. To prooeed in telligently, he must know what the people will consent to; and an officer in quest of correet information aota sensibly in applying where it is te be had. All men of real Influ ence in Virginia are in the habit of expressing themselves to General Lse with the most entire unreserve, and he ia a better judge than any other man in the State of the co operation or the opposition whioh any parti cular course or policy wonld meet from the great body of its respeotable citizens. A pre vious consultation with General Lee ought to prove valuable on other grounds, besides being the most authentio Bouioe of information. So great la the confidence which he enjoys iu that State, that whatever he advises or assents to will be likely to reoeive the support of that large and most influential class of citizens who hold his judgment aud character in re- f pect. Whatever President Grant attempts in Virginia with their co-operation cannot very well fail. The fundamental mistake whioh the radical party have luade throughout the whole pro gress of the reconstruction controversy, has consisted in spuming the advice and assist ance of the representative men ot the South. Had it not been for their blcotrv iu this re spect, all questions oould have been settled immediately after the close of the war, and the oountry have been spared these four try ing years of distraction and turmoil. The faot that these representative meu had been Steeped in the Rsbellion, so tar iroin being a valid reason why the Government should not have arranged terms with them, was the Btroncest reason for doincr so. The whole bouthern people hal supported the Ubeiuon, and there was uo way of reclaiming them to loyalty eo short, simple, and easy as by ooeratins through the leaders whose moral ascendancy it was Impossible to destroy. The eentiinental repugnance to utilizing the leaders of the Rebellion ought to have weighed Tin rim re uinnt arranain? the terms of a polltioal. thau It did in arranging the terms of a military surrender. Why did the war end all at onoe, end completely, every Rebel soldier laying down his arms aud returning to bis home to act the part of a peaceful citizsu f Whv wu there no necessity for dealing with any soattf red military remnants of the Rebel lion in detail f it was because the Confederate armies respected the authority of their gene rals, and were willing te be bouud by their en gagements. The consent of three men sufficed to disarm and scatter all the Rebel hoets. General Lee, General Johnston, ani General Dbk Taylor carried the proxies of tbelr respeotlve armies. There was no liei-efslty for treating immediately with tbe armies theins ves; tin surrender or these generals included the snrrnier of all the men whom they commanded. A similar course ought to have been adopted in dealing with the political problem. The ajutueru people would have promptly compiled with any conditions which had received the assent cf their recognized leaders. Instead of the cumbrous method, which . was actually adopted, of dealing with the whole Southern people as an unorganized mass of individuals, and operating through carpet-baggers whom they despised, aud whom they would never concent to follow, the method whioh suHei the ciroumstances was to arrange terms with the natural leaders of the South, aud trust to their ascendancy over their followers for bring ing over the great body of the people. 111 tbis course been pnrsHed, the controversy might have been settled at onoe; oonilieuoe and kindness would have been immediately restored; and the South wou!d have had no difficulty in borrowing the oapital which was needed for the resuscitation of its prostrate industry. In a war between two nations foreign to eaoh other, there is no delay or difficulty lu closing up the controversy after the final ces sation ol hostilities. The reason is, tb.it eaoh nation considers itself bound by the ao tion of its government, and the conditions to Which its rulers assent in a treaty of peaoe are observed without question by all the people. If, Instead of possessing this con venient maohinery of settlement, two nations were completely disorganized at the close of the war, it is diffioult to see how a controversy between them oould ever reach a stable adjustment. If one of the two nations should refuse to treat with the government of the other, and undertake to arrange a settle ment with the great body of its people, the dispute would draggle on through an era of confusion as the reconstruction question basin this oountry. The reconstruc tion controversy could have been arranged with nearly as muoh certainty and satisfac tion by an understanding with the reoognized leaders of southern opinion, as by a treaty with a government, if there had been a gov ernment in the r-outh with authority to com mand the obedience of the psople. By dis franchising, humiliating, and spurning all the men of real influenoe, and attempting to control the people through intruders whom they detested, the South has been converted into a politioal chaos for a period of four years. If l'resident urant has really invited ttene- rai Lee to Washington to oonfer with him on the state of affairs in Virginia, he is exhibit ing the first gleam of sense whioh has yet been manifested In rieaiiBg with the reoon struotion question. The influenoe of such meu as General Lee, the ascendanoy of suoh men over the party sentiment of their seotion, cannot be annihilated or weakened by any thing which the Republican party is able to do. It will continue to exist and operate as potent political foroe; and it depends upon the wisdom of the uovernment whether it shall be an obstruction or an aid. If President Grant has concluded to ascertain and conform to the best pnblio sentiment of Virginia, he may reasonably hope that the new State gov ernment, when once organized, will be self- sustaining. No government which requires an outside military force to uphold it oan be considered as republican. In a government truly republican, the onief sanction of the laws is a supporting publio opinion; and if General Grant desires to see governments of this character in the Southern States, he must put himself in relations with those South' erners whose antecedents aud standing make them the natural leaders of the people.
