After the expulsion of Isabella II tho Spanish rrovinionnl Government proved its own wis dom and gave promise that a new era was in deed to be inaugurated by guaranteeing re ligious liberty. Spain has for centuries been tho stronghold of clerical supremacy and religious bigotry, and even in our day it Beomed as if it would be impossible to over throw them. Indeed, it yet remains to bo seen whether the victory is complete, and the principal troubles of the newly organized government appear to arise from the open as waII o flip secret hostility of the Church party. The ascendancy of the clergy in Spain i Las been a problem for philosophers and j statesmen even more than for the students of ecclesiiistieisiu. liuckle, j Jwho was perhaps better titled than any man of our day to give the subject a fair, impartial, and critical examination: looking at it with the unprejudiced eyes of a Cool, cautious, and unbiassed philosopher; weighing carefully each fact, and linking them with judicial fairness into a strong link of evidence, has given it as his deliberate opinion that the decline of Spain from her once proud position as the first power in Europe was due principally, if not solely, to the influence of the priesthood: and deducing Lis opinion from the wide array of facts which he brings together, he comes to tho conclusion that religious intolerance is in grained in the very nature of tho people, and that consequently there is no hope that they will ever rise above it, or ever wish to free themselves from it. 'Whether this list opinion is correct or not remains to be seen: the problem is now in process of solution, and the half reconstructed government is already engaged in a contest with the clergy, and it is impossible to tell now which side Will ultimately get the upper hand. The new constitution made a concession to the clergy by recognizing the Catholic as the national religion an error that was perhaps unavoidable, although it is likely that a bolder policy in the beginning would prevent trouble inj the future. Still, it was a tremendous Step in advance for such a country as Spain to do this much; and in guaranteeing the free dom of all forms of religion, the lloman clergy will be obliged to contend for the su premacy of their particular creed on some thing like equal terms. Iteligious tyranny of any kind, whether Protestant or Catholic, is the most onerous and degrading, as well as the most difficult to overturn, that mankind has to 6uffer under; and to overthrow the political influence of the clergy is the first and most important step in national progress and enligh tenment. Austria took this step when, under tho guidance of the enlightened statesman who is now placed at the head of her affairs, the con cordat was revoked, and the interference of the clergy in civil affairs was forbidden. Eng land took such a step when she disestablished the Irish Church in spite of the vigorous opposition of her Episcopal hierarchy; and that the English clergy ate as intoWant, bigoted, and opposed to liberal ideas as are those of Home, was sufficiently demonstrated Ly their action in regard to this great measure of reform. It is fair to presume that both in England and Austria a permanent step in ad vance has been made, and that there will be no retrogression: tho situation in Spain, how ever, shows a great experiment still in pro gress, with the result doubtful. It may be true that revolutions never go backwards, but they sometimes succumb, and although tho influ ences of the present overturning f old ideas in Spain cannot fail to have a great effect on the future of the nation a relapse into political and religious despotism is neither impossible nor altogether improbable. The present government does not com mand the respect of the people like one de signed to be a permanency, and tho publiu mind is consequently in a feverish state, im patient to know what is to be done next, and in a condition eminently favorable to the schemes of demagogues and intriguers of all kinds. Tho .recent Carlist demonstration was brought about by the clergy, and al though the plot was promptly supp ressod, it shows plainly tho danger that threatens the new system. The government has shown its appreciation of tho real cause of tho outbreak by adopting a line of policy towards the clergy that" will probably mako them careful hero after how they commit themselves. The bishops are callod upon to report what steps thev have taken to restrain disloyalty, and to furnish to the government tho names of tho conspirators, and they are also required to issue their nastorals within eight days, requiring obedi- enop to the laws. The cable informs us that ihe decree concerning tho conduct of the clergy gives general satisfaction, but that thus far the bishops have maintained silence on the subject. The government has tho upper Land at present, certainly, but tlio question is. TInw lono will it maintain it ? Tho Cortes will assemble in October, and its principal business will be to elect a king. With strong and liberal monarch on tue tnrone, who will keep himself entirely free from all clerical influences, the liberties of Spain will probably be assured; but with a weak or bigoted ruler the clerical powers will cer tainly again come into power, "and will make strenuous efforts to m&intuiu their position NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD. The next great railway enterprise of tho world promises to be the construction of a Northern Pacific Railroad, running nearly paralld with the Union and Central Paciflo, through a region some three or four hundred miles further north than the iron link which now connects the shores of our ocean-bound repub lic. Theproposed route isnowbeing carefully examined by tho members of an exploring party, whose report, if satisfactory to Eastern capitalists, will at once place this gigantic en terprise on a good financial basis, and lead to its speedy success. In the States east of the Mississippi, several great trunk lines, scarcely more than a hundred miles apart, are now absolutely necessary to facilitate in ternal travel and commerce, and in tho Far West at least three are required for tho proper development of its varied resources. The Union or Central road is now substantially completed. Many projects for a Southern Pacific Railway over various routes are under consideration, and the claims of tho Northern Pacific to support will soon bo forcibly pre sented. Congress has authorized the exten sion of aid in the shape of largo donations of valuable- land, but as its mineral resources were not well known at tho time the existing Pacific Railway system was devised, no bonds or money were granted, and from present in dications tho requisite capital must bo ob tained from private capitalists. The new route will traverse the most pro ductive and desirable portion of our western domain. It is substantially the region tra versed by the Lewis and Clark expedition, organized by Jefferson more than sixty years ago, which first gave authentic information to the American people and the world in regard to the character of tho vast regions lying to tho northwest. Subsequently, when the va rious Pacific Railroad projects wore subjected to accurate governmental investigation, some eighteen or twenty years ago, the engineers and officers selected to examine the northern route reported that it was entirely practicable, and that it traversed many districts which could easily bo rendered extremely productive by careful culture. Tho climate is eompara tively mild on account of tho depression of the mountain system near our northern boun dary. The reduced elevation more than com pensates for the high latitude, and no serious obstructions need be feared from snow storms. Nature seems to have marked out the north ern routo as the proper one for a great national highway, because the navigable streams of the Atlantic and Pacific here make the nearest approach to each other; and by the construction of a railway only a few hundred miles in length, it would be entirely practicable to convey bulky merchandise, by combined land and water transportation, across the entire continent. It has another advantage in the fact that communication be tween the western coast of Oregon with Japan and China is more direct than the route west ward from San Francisco. Besides, agricul ture over many portions of this line will need none of the assistance from irrigation which American farmers aro slow to give, and abundant crops can be ensured by the culture with which they are already familiar. As Minnesota is now in many respects the best and greatest of our wheat-growing States, so other districts of equal fertility and of immense extent will, bo opened up. Nor are mineral treasures want ing. Hie mines 01 iciano ana Aiomana are of unexampled richness. For several years past they have contributed the principal por tion of native gold received by our mints, and some of their quartz mines may hereafter be profitably and productively worked for ages to come. It is a settled law of emigration that men follow isothermal lines with wonderful exacti tude in their migratory movements. As a consequence, in the natural course of things, the route of the Northern Pacific Railroad will become the homo of millions of the descend ants of the present population of New Eng land, New York, the northern portions of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, as well as of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the northern nations of Europe. This thrifty race works wonders wher ever it goes. Possessing indomi table industry, dauntless courago, and great inventive powers, it utilizes every available resource with amazing rapidity, and builds up every region it occupies with uner ring certainty. It will be by no means sur prising if thirty years hence the region under consideration bears the same relation to the trans-Missouri region that the northern por tions of the Union east of the Missouri bear to the States that occupy a more southern latitude. And a railway that penetrates the Yankee-land of the Far West need have no fear of procuring plenty of freight and pas sengers. We have already published several articles descriptive of portions of tho route of tho great new enterprise. A letter appears in our columns to-day, which gives a vivid pic ture of the forests and sea-coast of Oregon, and conveys a realizing sense of the future greatness of that distant portion of the Union. REDUCTION OF CAULK RATES. The first result of the successful landing of tho French cable is a reduction of the rates on the old lines, mid with tho competition that will be excited we may expect still further reductions and a corresponding in crease in mo business none uy tne ocean telegraph companies. At present the charges are so exorbitant that tho cables aro not cm ployed at an iy a great number 01 persons who would bo willing to pay reasonably high rates for tho transmission of ordinary des patches. Tho Government, wealthy business houses, and the newspapers are now almost tho only customers of the cable companies; and these are obliged to use tho lines and pay the prices whether or no. With a, multiplica tion of the cables tho tariff will necessarily be lowered and tho buwiuoss will be greatly increased, to the mani fest H'.lywst ?i ft? rVlli. papers will be ennbled to obtain longer and more interesting despatches, and thou sands of messages will be transmitted by the public at large whore one is at present. If it is found that those lines already in operation are crowded, others will be projected, and in after years there is a likelihood that a dozen cables instead of three will unite this conti nent with Europe; and care will be taken that those constructed in future shall not be wholly under the control of foreign governments. The new tariff of charges on the old cable lines, which will go into operation to-day, will be thirty shillings sterling, or seven dollars and a half in gold, for ton words, and three shillings sterling, or seventy-five cents in gold, for each extra word. Tresa messages will be sent at half those rates. Annexation makes quiet progress in the lands to the north of us. Tho Rlue Noses and the Kanueks alike are slowly recognizing the principle of "manifest destiny," and swelling the ranks of the annexation party. The Governor-General of the New Dominion recently delivered an address at a banquet given in his honor at Quebec, in the course of which he gavo a very unsatisfactory reason for the diminution of the British forces in the provinces, and then announced that the Do minion is now virtually independent, and at liberty at any time to break loose from the mother country and enter into "some other form of alliance." We have frequently had semi-official assurances that Groat Britain would be glad to get rid of her possessions in North America, and now that Sir John Young has spoken so freely and candidly, there can be no doubt upon the subject. The rapid diffusion of tho annexation spirit may now be anticipated. It will probably assume at first the guise of a movement towards indepen dence, but independence means ultimately nothing more nor less than absorption by the United States. The Mobile Riot. At last wo have re ceived another version of the disturbances which took place in Mobile, Alabama, on the evening of Thursday last, and we now find that the first report was grossly, and without doubt purposely, incorrect. The trouble was commenced by the appearance at the Repub lican meeting of a notoriously quarrelsome man, who opened the onslaught by firing his pistol. The meeting was twice compelled to disperse, and when it was broken up the second time, tho crowd of Rebels pursued the retreating Republicans, tiring into them as they left tho scene of murder. It is about time that these spasmodic outbursts of trea son were put an end to. Ryan, the Libehatok, has at last accom plished something. He has administered a severe horsewhipping to one Day, his quondam private secretary, whom he had accused of an attempt to entice him into tho United States, within reach of tho process of the Federal courts. Men who make as much bluster as Ryan generally achieve something about as brilliant and commendable as the thrashing of an unarmed man within an inch of his life. OIJITUAItY. ClinrlcN ('. Little. Mr. Charles C. Little, the senior partner of the well-known publishing linn of Little, Hrown Co., ot Boston, died alter an illness of several months, at his residence in Cambridge, to which he had re cently returned from a trip to the milder climate of the South. He has resided in Cambridge for thirty- live years past, and leaves a widow with four children the former the daughter of the late Hon. Henry Wheaton, a standard writer ou international law. Mr. Little was born July 25, 1799, at Kennebunk, Me., and had celebrated his seventieth birthday shortly before his death. He was indeed the archi tect of his own fortune, starting in life us a boy in a shipping house in Boston. He soon sailed to Charles ton, S. C. spent a winter there, and theu returned to Iifcston. He now entered the bookstore of Carter, llillitird A Co., and by his invaluable services in time became a partner in the llrm of llllliard, Gray, Little A Wilkins. He dissolved these relations in 1337. when he associated himself with the late James Brown as Charles Little & Co., and their publications have comprised some of the first works in this conn try. Mr. Little was President of the Charles River National Hank, atrustee of Mount Auburn Cemetery, and held other responsible positions. He was a man of marked personal and social virtues. SICKLES. A Movement lo llefeiit Mi Continuation. Sonic of the personal and political enemies of Hanici r.. McKies, 111 ana out ot the Remit) ican party, have been quietly organizing a movement to (letcat his nomination as .Minister to Spain before the Senate. The charges relied upon are trumped up from his past political career and also from his private life. None of tllem are new, ami nearly all of theuihave already appeared in a certain New York newspaper. General Mel; lea seems to nave been apprehensive of something' of this kind before leaving for Ma drid.

He thought it best) However, w je;iu un: iiiuuei m cuarge Ol a friend, which he did. 1 hat gentleman wrote to Senator Sumner a few days ago calling his attention to the organized attack being made upon General ' Sickles, and In reply received a letter to-day wherein Mr. Sumner, alter spcakintr in warm terms of the ability of General Sickles and his fitness for the mission to which he has been appointed. give assurance that- so far as he (Sunnier) is personally concerned, he will do all he can to secure the confirmation of General Sickles. Ho also expresses the opinion that there will be no opposition to him in the Committee 011 Foreign Relations, except from the Democratic members thereof, nor in the Senate, except from the same side of the house, all of which is to be expected.

The PENNSYLVANIA STATE EOUAL RIGHTS' LEAGUE auxin issues its call to the Leaoues of this State, snd to the citizens who are yet disfranchised, earn estly urging them to attend the Annual Meeting of the I-eagne, which will convene in Huidrkoper's Hall, MF.A I) VIIXK. on TUKHDAY, August 17, IW, at 10 o'clock A. M. The many startling events which have transpired since our last meeting make the approaching one, which will bo the fifth annual session of the League, of morn Importation than any we hare ever held. Tho Groat Republican Party Is triumphant ; tho Great Military Chief of the Age is President of the Nation; the Constitution of fie Cnited States Is amended, and its ratification by the m jimite number of States so nearly completed that we may claim it as an accomplished fact ; and black men are rotors and nil omcos of trust, honor, and emolument. At the coming meeting of the League, the molt vital issues must be mot and fully disonssed; the gravost sub jects must be presontod, subjects involving our prosent peace, political and social condition as well as our security for the future. Our destiny, by the wdll of God. appears to be indissolubly bound to that of our native country. With it we will rise- with it we miv fall. The nnfoldlng of tho broad platform of equal political rights, with equal political privileges, opens to us all tho responsibilities anil duties of the citizon which tyrants have long donind u.s, and to-day we constituted part of tlio groat governing power of tho republic. Not as in days past does tho League now summon yon not to aid the Hoeing fugitive, nor to shield him from tho gory grip of tho inhuman kidnapper or tho official clutch of the debased Unitod States morconary. Neither is it to petition Congress for rights denied, grievances to bo re dressed, person and property to be protected, or froedom and life to be secured. Noris It to ask tho Legislature of 1 ennsylvania to pass a bill to secure us in tho right of un molested travel in railroad cars throughout this Common wealth ; a right which was denied by reason of our color and which, through tba instrumentality of a committee of the Leaguo, we now enjoy, in defiance of tho prejudice of the dominant classes, and in defiance of others still more unmanly, who, being prompted by envy unit porsonal malignity, lent their fruitless cllorts. oven at tho jeopardy of this great right, to cmbarass tho League in its en deavors to securo this just act of legislation, ft istotho call of Mi ii, Hrnthen, and Amrrimn Ciihfim that you are summoned. You are callod to meet this living important crisis, which unparalleled ovents, Ihe rending in wain oj the "cord of caste," the overturning of oppression, and the judgment of God havo forced upon the nation. Yiu aro called upon to calmly consider and resolutely adopt somo feasible, practical plan, by which wo may mass tlio vote of our peoplo to uphold and sustain intact the Republican party and those noblo mon, representatives of that courago and heroism which have saved the nation; men who in the Congress of tho United States and in the Mate Legislatures unflinchingly mot the tmest ion raised by tho life-long enemies of our race and of the country, as to tho right of the colored men throughout tho North to vote, and to exercise all other rights enjoyed by virtue of citizenship. Como from yrur workshops, from your fields of labor, from the factory, the school houso, and farm. Come from your h mos and families. For this occasion let our minis tors leavo their pulpits, our working men thoir avocations, and our professional men their duties. Let our tin lu-htful. active, vigilant men conn together and so completely organize and combine that not a vote shall be lost, I ut that they may lie polled to crush tho enemies of law and order of Union and Liborty. To the great principles which animate the Republican party we stand pledged by evory tie of honor and grati tude.
