THE
ADMINISTRATION AND THE RE-
l'UJJLIOAN PAR IX.
front the K Y. lime.
In endorsing unrcsorvedly the courso of
General Grant's mlminiHtrntion, the Syracuse
Convention has but followed the example of
every Republican Convention that has yet
been held. Not one has evmhxl tho subject or
dealt with it ambiguously. They havo, with
out an exception, applauded its Qdolity to
principle, its efficiency in tho performance of
arduous duties, and tho rigorous economy
which distinguishes every department. Their
Approval is valuable because it is discriminat
ing and manifestly juHt. It is emphatic be
cause the judgment pronounced by tho vari
ous conventions expresses tho known convic
tions of the party every where.
The standard by which tho acts of the ad
ministration have been tried is high and un
yielding. Under tho rulo of General Grant's
predecessor the country had been familiarized
V'ith corruption and extravagance, Rower
was interpreted to mean license to misuse its
functions. Tho expenditures were maintained
at tho war point. The departments were
filled by men who employed their opportuni
ties to plunder the people. The revenues
wore uncollected or squandered. Tho Execu
tive employed his influence to thwart tho
operation of important laws, and to obstruct
iho restoration of tho Southern States.
Minor officers, encouraged by displays of this
mischievous spirit in high places, were noto
riously in league with knaves and combina
tions of knaves, by whom groat interests
Were ruthlessly trampled under foot. Tho
ppoctacle was scandalous, and its effects wore
Xuost disastrous.
The advent of Grant to power, and the
formation of an administration on the basis
described by tho Republican party, was f ol
owod by immediate and largo reforms. Tho
Congressional committees found ardent co
workers in the business of retrenchment.
The influences which under Johnson had
Jbeen exerted to perpetuate extravagance,
under Grant were arrayed on the side of
economy. The appropriations were cut down
at the instance and with the help of tho de
partmental heads. And a promise was given
that the change thus begun should be pushed
forward faithful- and well. m
The promise has been fulfilled. Economy
Js the order of the day wherever tho autho
rity of the Government prevails. The reduc
tions contemplated by Congress have in many
cases been exceeded. The departments have
ibeen purged of idlers; their duties have been
Systematized, and tho cost of their perform
ance diminished to an extent not yet fully
appreciated. Tne "rings" which were pre
viously supreme in the Treasury have been
Jjroken; the devices which made robbery safe
and even respectable have been destroyed.
Honest men control the approaches to the
Btrong box. The revenues are zealously col
lected; the disbursements are conducted
With strict reference to the terms of law.
As a mere fiduciary agent, the administration
lias discharged its trust with an energy and
integrity that cannot be too loudly ap
plauded. But there has been more than mere faithful
Service. By its financial policy the adminis
tration has brought the country nearer the
Btage at which a reduction of tho burden of
the debt will be practicable. How this re
duction may be best ett'octed the Republican
party has again and again indicated. The
funding of the debt at a lower rate of interest
is the only method compatible with honor,
and tho process will be possible only when
the public credit shall have been greatly im
proved. Not the least meritorious of the re
Bults achieved by the administration is, there
fore, the higher standing which it has im
parted to the national credit in tho money
markets of tho world. Opinions cliff er in re
gard to the exeellonce of the precise means
employed to produce this result, but tho ro
Bult is gratifying and unquestionable. The
public credit is higher, stronger, than when
Jlr. Boutwell began his task, and by so much
the country is nearer tho relief it greatly
Heeds. It remains for Congress, after calm
consideration, to revise the plans of the
Secretary, and to provide means for profiting
Jby the good he has accomplished. An im
proved condition of the debt and a reduction
of taxation are the two objects which will
test the financial capacity of the party. They
. are not irreconcilable.
The confidence expressed in the conduct of
the administration has still further justifica
tion. The better position of tho South gene
rally, and of the three excluded States in par
ticular, is largely due to the sound discretion
and wise liberality which have distinguished
the action of the President. He has combined
adherence to law with a generosity which has
disarmed opposition. Order prevails. The
authority of the Federal Government has been
upheld. At the same time the exorcise of a
just and conciliatory disposition has brought
into play the better instincts of the Southern
people. Co-operation with the Government
lias taken the place of resistance to its au
thority. Great strides have been taken to
wards the completion of reconstruction.
Virginia is virtually restored now, and there
are good reasons for hoping that Congress,
on reassembling, will find Texas and Missis
sippi in a similar situation. The fact will be
a triumph for the administration, and a source
of reasonable prido to tho party whose prin
ciples it sustains and whose policy it nobly
Tincucaies.
BRITISH UNITED STATES.
fYom th N. Y. Tribune.
fax Secretary Mr. Cardwcll, in a speech,
the points of which are given by cable, takes
pleasure in commencing tuo reiormea coio-
liial policy of England. That policy, as he
states it, has made Canada what she is, so self
reliant that, beginning with a merchant navy
which is little inferior to that of France, sho
might become one of the first maritime
Dowers df the world. The thought of dis
trusting a self-reliance so pronounced as this
does not occur to Mr. Cardwell, for he asserts
with an enthusiasm which does him credit as
a minister and a Briton, thut when that time
comes the English race will have such a con
federation as tne worm never saw under a
Bingle sovereign. Australia, India, Canada, and
iha British Indies, East and West, would, we
presume, be included in this mighty bond of
race. There would be a grand Congress of
Enelish nations, to which the British Parlia
ment wonld be subsidiary, since it is not to be
BuppoBedthat the groat far-lying provinces
can be content always with the stray ropre
Bentation which thev have in Enelish councils,
and the kind of alms government which is
Holed out to them from the niotner country.
Indeed, tho International Concrosa ot Anglo
Kaxon peoples is an idea lately put forth, not
without some diffidence in its possibility, by a
dumber of leadinK colonists lately met in
London.
t ot ft Minister of State ffueli ft plan as this
seems visioncry; but English statecraft, com- I
plex as it is, is comprehensive. The rulers I
who have tho versatile knack of governing
Ireland in one way, Scotland in another, and
India in still another, and who by power and
tact keep a heterogeneous empire together, may
see a comfortable way of solving their colonial
problem. Australia and Canada, however in
dependent they may become, are tho natural
allies of tho mother country, and it noods but
common sense to keep them so. That they
will seek individualization as peoples, as duly
and reasonably as the American colonies did
when they became the United States, and
that they will surely demand a voice in tho
councils of the world's powers, we cannot
doubt. At what remoto or proximate future
Australia may have a difficulty of Alabama
claims with the parent country, or when Can
ada shall legislatively condomn her England
free-trado system, we are not prepared to
say. Possibly the world now moans peace if
over, and our progress is henceforth to be
mainly in understandings, rathor than mis
understandings. All this looks very well for tho theory of
Mr. Card well; but take tho caso of Now Zea
land. Here an almost bankrupt colony, un
aided by tho mother land, is waging war on
tho self-reliant principle. Tho war, which
was brought on lv the conduct of imperial
officers, is direct eif by tho homo Government,
while it is entirely sustained by tho colonists.
Tims tho liege subjects of her Majesty afar
off are at tho entire expenso of bleeding for a
cause which, though altogether their own,
they havo not tho poor privilege of prose
cuting in their own way. The Now Zoalauders
groan and protest and threaten amiably; but
the parent at homo is calm and unmoved.
How long will other grown-up provinces of
England tolerate tho oppressive indifforonco
which the self-reliant toaching dovolops, not
withstanding its virtues ? Self-rolianco is ex
cellent, soy tho Canadians, provided that
while it allows us to pay our own bills the
imperial authorities do not impertinently
oversee us and chorgo us. In short, if tho
imperial colony must pay its own way, it
must in time demand complete control of its
own affairs; and tho mother's counsels of
self-reliance will, in that case, be recom
mended back to her.
DIVORCES MADE EASY.
From the K. Y. World.
A young and rural wife who elopes to
Europe with a lover who has clothed the pro
testations of his passionj to her, in the pre
sence of her legal incumbent, in tho guise of
legal advice; who writes to her undo, on tho
eve of her departure, her belief that her
friends will havo confidence in tho rectitude
of her motives even whilo she is roaming
Europe with another than her lawful lord; and
who exhibits withal a keen eyo for business,
in the midst of her romantic fervors, by care
fully collecting all her available property,
Ereparatory to flight, is certainly entitled to
e classed as a female phenomenon. But
when she returns from tho immoral felicitie3
of her pilgrimage, and immediately insti
tutes proceedings against her husband for a
divorce, alleging his infidelity, the impudence
of her procedure, though it may make the
unthinking laugh, cannot but make the judi
cious grieve. And when it appears that she
succeeded in obtaining this divorce upon no
other capital than an unlimited capacity and
willingness for fiction on the part of her legal
adviser, and an ardent dosire upon her own
to fasten upon a frosh lover the legal hold
which, with equal ardor, sho desired to loose
from a stalo one, sho gives rise to the most
serious reflections.
The manner wherein and the tools where
with sho and the lover of her purso, if not
her person, worked to effect thoir noble aim
have been amply set forth in the report of
the case. Whether the bonds of marriage
should bo tightened or relaxed is a question
upon which the Presbyterian Synod and the
Involution would widely differ. But that
such a cheap and easy evasion of the existing
laws as is there chronicled should be possible
may be safely pronounced, without expressing
any opinion at all upon that question, to bo a
shameful, scandalous, and demoralizing
thing.
The blame for it lies primarily, of course,
upon tho parties who are driven to such
shameful shifts, and who naturally avail them
selves of any means to continue and legalize a
union which it appears in this caso that one
party found pleasant and the other found
profitable. But, with a proper administration
of justice, there would bo no means available
for such ends. 1 hat thoro are is tne tault ot
the courts in which snnh creatures as the
"divorce lawyers" are permitted to practise.
The indecent haste with which a tissue of per
juries, so palpable that they would not havo
sioou an nour s rem scrutiny, was piuiueu uu
upon a referee who seems to have been
thinkinc only ot his tees by tno -snyster
who seems to have been their author, so that
in six davs from the issue of an order of re-
ference a decree ot divorce could ue awaraeu,
would be simply impossible if referees did the
duty they are sworn and paid to do, or 11 na-
orant scoundrels were not allowed to can
themselves attorneys.
These scoundrels, who advertise in disropu
table newspapers to obtain divorces without
delay, publicity, or grounds, and whose only
possible advantage over a decent lawyer is 111
their nnscrupniousness, ougut 10 ue put out
of court and branded by the bar. Some of
them are said not to be lawyers at all, but to
pay lawyers for the use of thoir names under
which to carry on their dirty trade. In this
case, the lawyers wlio permit tneir names to
be used for such purposes ought to be held
accountable tor what is clone under tnem.
This cose siiRoosts, also, that the system of
references which has taken most domestic
cases out of open court needs overhauling.
It is true that under this system much dis
gusting matter is averted from the publio
nostril and pain is spared to many innocent
persons. But there ought to be some gua
rantee against such loose and reckless trans
actions before referees as Judge Clerke has
decided the trial of the caso of Nichols vs.
Nichols to be.
COMING POLITICAL CHANGES IN EU
ROPE.
From the K. Y. Herald.
The recent illness of tho Emperqr Napoleon
has awakened a deep and general interest in
the affairs of Europe. Tho probablo death of
the man who has swayed for over twenty
years the destinies of France inspired the
courts and cabinets with alarm; and for the
first time it has been honestly confessed in
high places that France is tho centre of Eu
rope, and that Napoleon is dynastically tho
Eivotal person of tho epoch. Not sinco 1818
ave the dynasties and the hangers-on of the
Rame been so put to thoir wit's end. After
Napoleon no man could tell what was to come,
but to most men the prospect soomod bad for
the crowned heads aud tho privileged classes
in Europe. Hence the mission of Lord
Clarendon, and tho general flocking of confi
dential government agents to Paris. For the
presont tho crisis is over, and we cannot say
that we are sorry that it is over, but tho crisis
while it lasted w3 richly suggontivo.
It is no longer to be doubted that Europe
is on the eve of another gi'ont convulsion.
The forces exist, but th y are punt up an i
held in restraint. One man more than any
other in Europe maintain law and order,
holding the dangerous classes i'i check and
that man is Louis Napoleon Bouaparto. Na
poleon out of tho way, wo are certain to have,
if not tho wild outburst of ITS'.', at least a
repetition of ls:H) or lsK It is even ques
tionable whether tho Emperor himself, in
consequence of failing health and declining
power, may not witness a violent revolution
which he will not bo able to control.
Tho reforms which Nipolwti has granted
- .iiviiliiuu UUIIU1I1. X L LIU 11. It'll
has power to guide the new forces which he
has let loose in the empire, all may go well.
But the contingencies aro numerous and the
probabilities are not promising. The now
forces may prove too strong for him. It is a
fact which ought not to bo overlooked, that
every time tho French poople have coma to
power they have, as a first step, interfered in
the affairs of Europe. More than any other
Europeon people, tho French people, proporly
so called, aro in sympathy with tho cause of
democracy all the world over. Ono great
secret of Napoleoa's success has been that ho
has humored this feeling. Italy is an exam
ple. Germany is another, although Germany
has gone a little beyond the Emperor's wishes.
The French people again masters of the
situation, tho Polish question, the Schleswig
Holstein question, tho Greek question, the
popular cause in Spain, will all bo revived,
and tho revival will bo clangorous. What
adds to the gravity of the situation, ond
therofore to the valuo of the Emperor's life,
is the fact that tho treaties of 1S15 aro all
dead. Napoleon has told us this already;
but Napoleon only proclaimed a fact which
the world had already recognized. Napoleon
did not kill those treaties. They died a natural
death. They were weak whon they sustained
the blow of 1818. They were weaker still
when Italy rose in some of her old majesty,
and burst her bonds asunder. Sadowa made
a post-mortem examination unnecessary. Tho
shadow of those treaties, however, still re
mains. Napoleon does not despise the
shadow. Tho French people hate both tho
shadow and substance, and, the French poople
again in power, revenge will go hand-iu-hand
with justice, and the twain may march
over Europe. 'When wo gbinco at the general
situation when wo relluet on the Eastern
question, on the Slavonic question, on tho
Hchleswig-IIolstein question, oil tho German
question, on tho Spanish question, on the re
ligious questions in the East and the religious
iiiestions m the West of Europe; when wo
think of the large standing armies which are
wasting for want of employment, and when
we take into account the conservative power
of tho Emperor Napoleon, we cannot much
wonder that the probability of his death put
the dynasties in a flutter. In a few years, if not
sooner, we shall have congresses and confer
ences many, and reconstructions not a few.
Our faith in the governed, in spite of Charles
Dickens, is "illimitable" if they govern them
selves. Tho tido has sot in in favor of a great
European republic. Time is necessary, but
tho result is not doubtful.

CHAMPION SAFES,
Philadelphia, August 27, 19G9.
Messrs. Farrel, Hkkkino a co.
Geutlemou: In tho year ISfMJ I unfortunately- waa
In business In tho Artisan Building, which was de
stroyed by Are on the loth of April. I had then in
use what I supposed was a Fire-Proof Safe, but upon
opening It I found everything destroyed, aud lire
burning therein.
You will recollect, gentlemen, there waa Bcveral
of your Safes lu that lire, also several. In the fire at
Sixth and Commerce streets, the next May, Ave
weeks afterwards, all of which upon being opened
proved they were Urc-proof indeed, for I witnessed
the opening of the most of their), and in every case
the contents were preserved, while Safes of other
makers were partially or entirely destroyed. I at
once concluded to have something that I could 6V
penil upon, aud purchased ono of your Safes.
The safe I purchased of you at that tiino was sub
jected to a white beat (which was witnessed by sev
'eral gentlemen that reside in the neighborhood) at
the destruction of my Marble Paper factory, 9M
Wallace street, on the afternoon and evening of tho
nh lust. Alter digging the safe from the ruins,
und opening it this morning, I was much pleased to
lind everything, consisting of books, papers, money
and silverware, nil right. I shall want another of
your safes as soon as I can get a place to continue
mv business in. I could not rest contented with any
other make or safes.
