A NEUTRAL ASYLUM IN WILMINGTON A FOB THE HOKNET. jpyowt the N. V. World. It iweniH pretty clear that the friends of Cospedes hoped they had friends enough in he administration to compel a decision on the belligerency question by tho presence of the Hornet in tho port of Wilmington. Their Iheory was that, if complaint were made at the Department of State by tho Spanish Min ister that asylum was given to the cruiser, the yeply would be that this Government afforded pucli asylum for a reasonable time to all bolli pcrent ships of war of a friendly power, with heir prizes, for the purpose of obtaining sup plies or undergoing repairs, or for temporary refuge from casualties of sea and land, or for Other objects compatible with neutrality; and ibis would be a quasi recognition of the Ces jiedes government, under whose authority the Jlomet was upon the high seas. Their hopes tyere, however, doomed to disappointment. We suggest to the representatives in Wash ington of the insurgents that there is another method by which they can again bring up iheir point. It is everywhere admitted that public ships of war, belonging to a de facto government, are a class of sovereign instru ments which no other power can, in time of fieace, interfere with certainly not through ts judicial power. The Cubans claim that ihe Hornet belongs to the republic of Cuba jmd sails under the commission and flag of Ihat government. She is no privateer, they Bay, but bolongs to the navy of the Cuban republic Now, she was seized and detained in Wilmington by the United States Marshal, tinder a Commissioner's warrant, as it is re presented. If the Hornet be, in law and fact, D publio armed vessel of a friendly State raiting Wilmington in pursuance of the un derstood permission of nations in such cases, then such seizure was not only illegal, but an ftffront to be atoned for. Let Mr. Lemus at Dnce demand an apology of President Grant, rnd in that form bring up the question of Lelligerence. If that fails, then Mr. Lemus will have to ildapt himself to the fact that the assumed ownership of the Hornet by his pretended Government is no better, in public law, than En ownership by any other equal number of individuals. She is not a government vessel, jut an avowed private cruiser. She is not Even a privateer, for the reason that the Gov ernment whose letter of marque she bears is Ho government at all, so far as the United States is concerned. Being a private vessel, Ehe is liable to seizure and condemnation for any municipal offense she has committed Ugainst our laws. If, when she left Thila- flelphiafor Halifax, there was fixed intent en the nart of those who controlled her to Employ her in hostility to Spain, she commit ted an offense then and there the taint of Cvhich has not been and cannot be purged way by her subsequent voyage to Halifax, She did not deposit the offense at that port, Hor did she remove it by the dodge of new Dwners, a new crew, and new officers. There Vras a case decided in the supreme uourt ot ihe United States, by Chief Justice Marshall, tailed the Gran Para, which settles the whole lousiness. The real question is as to the illegality of tke purchase and preparation at rhuadelphia. Was she cleared with intent that she should eventually cruise against Epain? That is the point to which Mr. liemus needs to direct his attention, if he Jjreaks down in the effort to make her a vessel of the navy of the Cuban republic, entitled to asylum in Wilmington from distress at pea. The allegation that arms were put on Jjoard from this port by the schooner Pred jmore, or supplies by the Martha Washington, trill be annoying, but Philadelphia is the initial point. If Attorney-General Hoar insists on hold ing the Hornet, her officers and crew, under & charge of piracy, that will call for a display of all the legal acumen Senor Lemus may possess. Piracy, however, is a thing easy for the North Carolina lawyers and the Commissioner to talk about, but to give a legal definition thereof which tvill hold water will puzzle them till next Christmas. By all means, let benor Lemus argue vociferously that, before either the steamer or the men can jbe condemned as pirates, there must be En act of piracy proved. Mere intent and purpose are not enough. There must be an actual depredating on the high seas, with an intent hostile to persons and property thereon, lind criminal in the form of international law. H Mr. Lemus gets in a very tight place, let him take the ground that the officers and crew of the Hornet acted in good faith, sup posing they were operating under a commis sion from Cespodes, which President Grant would recognize as issued by competent authority. If need be, let him introduce affidavits of conversations with the President nnd certain members of the Cabinet, and pos sibly the speech of District Attorney Pierre pont, in the Republican State Convention, by which the friends of Cuba were led to sup pose that recognition could not be delayed 80 long as would be required for the Hornet to appear on the coast. This point, if art fully worked up, will be a stunner, and Will very likely induce a North Carolina Commissioner to open the question of the actual intent of the prisoners. We repeat that Mr. Lemus, in respect to piracy, has two strong points; first, that no wrongful act can be proved, and secondly, no wrongful intent, because they thought President Grant would, when the pinch tame, recognize the Cespedes commission. Finally, if everything else breaks down, let Ihe representative of Ce-Bpedes vigorously, fcut with true Castilian adroitness, exploit the crotchet thrown out by Judge Nelson from the bench on the head of the crew of the Sa vannah, that to constitute the offense of piracy the prosecution must establish an in tent to depredate on vessels of any and all nations, and that a purpose to destroy or ap pfpriate the property of a single nation, like Hpain for example, is not enough. Demand roof that the Hornet was inspired by pirati cal intent against the commerce and property of all nations. With these hints, which the World gladly Snakes as a free contribution to the Cespedes cause, we expect henor Lemus to make a Jbrilliant defense of the Hornet and Bo testify what a Cuban lawyer can do in a great cause involving not merely the construction of local laws ' and statutes, .but the true mean Sner of that crand system of international law whose '"voice ia the harmony of the world." ANDREW JOHNSON. "Tromthe h'tahville Union, Havinor Btated our preference for ex-Presi dent Johnson for the United States Senate, it juay be expected that we should give some of the roasons that induce us to favor his eleo iion. Were there no other reason, it would f,w feufflcicnt, other things being equal, that in e- I manded by the people of the State. That it I is expected and desired by the opponents of i - - . . radicalism in all the other States of the Union from the lakes to the gulf, and from the Atlantio to the Pacific, there cannot be the shadow of a doubt. The voice comes tip through the publio press and through private correspondence until it swells into a volume that forces itself upon the attention, and asks in the name of free government and republican institutions that this cham pion of the Constitution shall be returned to the United States Senate by the Legislature of Tennessee. Not only tho people of Tennessee, but the people of the whole country, as they dosire a restoration of the Government to the princi ples .upon which it was formed, so they de sire that one of such decision of character, of such determination, of such familiarity with the subject, of such grasp of mind, should be placed foremost in the combat with radi calism. Not only Senators must be met in debate with stern logic and overpowering fact, but the country must be aroused to the dangers by which it is imperilled. Who so capable of doing it in all this broad land as Andrew Johnson? Who can so quickly catch the publio ear? Who can so thoroughly expose the fraud, the corruption, the anti-republicanism of radicalism? Who so bold in defense and powerful in attack? The Constitution is at stake. It muBt be preserved, protected, and defended. In the language of the resolution presented by the Committee on lie-solutions, General John C. Brown, Chairman, and adopted by tho State Convention held in Nash ville, June 1, 18C8, "Andrew Johnson, in the discharge of his groat functions as President of the United States at a period of trying and unprecedented embarrassment, has rendered his name illustrious by the fidel ity with which he has sought to preserve, pro tect and defend the Constitution against the assaults of a revolutionary faction, and in his recent signal triumph in that behalf has earned 1 1 .

From the N. Y. Times. The adherents of ex-Governor Wells, in the new Legislature of Virginia, have not entered upon their labors in a wise or mouerate spirit. They adhere to the opinion that the test oath should be exacted; and having been overruled by Attorney-General Hoar, they now protest in formal phraso, and with a throat of which thev should be ashamed. They "roserve to themselves," it seems, "tho right at any time to secede from the present Legislature, and organize by themselves a legal and loyal Leeislature. Legality and loyalty have no place in the factious policy here proposed. The Legisla ture as now organized, for defined and lawful purposes, is organized in conformity with the views expressed by the legal adviser of the Federal Government. Prior to the presenta. tion of his opinion on the subject, tliere may have been room for argument as to the course which General Canby micht consist ently pursue. We were unable to recognize his alleged right to impose the test oath; but had the Attorney-General decided that that oath should be exacted, no advocate of the more liberal interpretation of the law would have dreamed of further opposition. Had any friend of Governor Walker talked of reserving the right to secede and organize another Legislature, he would have been branded as a foolish and an incurable Rebel. What, then, are the extremists who now utter this identical threat but foolish and intractable obstructives ? No amount of lip loyalty can justify a proceeding which has its origin in reckless partisanship, and the influence of which will certainly be mis chievous. As far as it is possible to judge of the pre vailing disposition of the Legislature, we see nothing to shake confidence in the good faith and good sense of tne majority. The mes sage transmitted on Thursday by Governor Walker affords evidence of his desire to com plete the work of restoration in the readiest and most acceptable manner, ne recommends tho ratification of the fifteenth amendment, and, moreover, urges the election of United States Senators as an available method of demonstrating to Congress the desire of the Legislature to avert all pretexts for delay The advice is judicious. The choice of sound, unobjectionable Senators will, in fact, be a redential which (Jongress cannot disregard; not because the law specifically requires this as a preliminary of readmission, but because. with this accomplished, the last speculative excuse ior exclusion will have been removed. DE. LIVINGSTONE HEARD FROM. From tht iV. I'. Herald. A missionary Las arrived at London from Zanzibar with the welcome news that a letter had been received from Dr. Livingstone. dated l ebmary, 18Clt. The great explorer was then alive and well, although short of provisions, on Liaue Tanganyika. Tliis lake, which is situated about five derrees bnlow the equator and to the left of the Mountains of the Moon, is the most prominently distinct feature of thnt vast terra incognita which the discoverer of Lake Ngami has so bravely and jierHevermgiy unaeruiKen to explore. The objects ot tlie distinguished exdorer. of whose safety the whole civilized world will be delighted to hoar, are to introduce to the lamiiy oi nations the innumerable tribes of negroes who, in communities hitherto un known, producing and consuming, and more jm. km tiyniicu, occupy mis strange region: to determine accurately its geographical iJuuiuuM-iiiuB unci io open to commerce resources or incalculable value. If nr Livingstone shall be spared to complete his important explorations, his account of them win surpass in interest even his own previous narratives, as well as those of Bpeke, Baker, Grant, and other laborers in the same field of discovery. Thanks to the indefatigability of such travellers, Africa will at length emerge irom tne mystery wnicn now envelops its very name, leaves its size and its population unsolved problems, and its configuration a matter of guesswork. Iiy that time, perhaps, the millennium may begin, the crowning of which, according to the late Dr. Channing, will be the perfect development of human nature, by the addition of its fully unfolded emotional elements to its f ullly unfolded intel lectual elements, as illustrated in the his tory of other than the African races. The fulness of time will have bcuu attained when man shall have added the most interesting and at present the leat known division of the globe to all the other conquests of civiliza tion, and Ethiopia shall have stretched out her hands to God. THE FltENCII TELEGltAPII CABLE, From the A. 1'. Sun. When the subject of permitting the French Atlantic Telegraph Company to land their pable on our shores was before the Hecretary of State Inst summer, the Sun pointed out tery clearly first, that Congress alone had our opinion his election in expected and de- for; and secondly, that even Cone-roBS orient not to grant it without previously soouring from . . . 1 1 ranee a corresponding privilege of lanaing American cables on the French coast.. Over ruled, it is said, by the President. Soerotary Fish undortook to stipulate provisionally with the French company that our Govern ment would not interfere with their operations on c6ndition that Americans should enjoy a similar favor in Frauco. Tho company exe cuted an agreement to that effect, and the cable was accordingly suffered to be com u ' pleted. As we demonstrated at that time, wiw stipulation was a trick and a dolusion, because the French Government was not a party to it. There was nothing in it to coinnel that Gov ernment to allow the landing of au American cable in Franco, whatever the present cable company might say. Our views have proved to be just. Americans have applied lor pei- mission to land a cable on the French coast. and have been refused. The amplication was signed by a number of responsible American gentlemen. The amount necessary to be de posited on receiving the authorization was tendered, and all the usual forms were com plied with. The reply received from the Minister was to the effect that an exclusive privilege to land a cable having boon granted to ALfil. Erlangor and itenter, ot whom tne present French company are the assignees, the request could not be granted. It now remains to be seen whether our Government will enforce its rights and com pel the taking np of a cable which it ought never to have suffered to be laid. The com pany owning it is chiefly composed and managed by ex-Ilebols and Rebel sympathis ers; they carried their defiance of our national rights as near as they dared to the point ot landing their cable without permission, only desisting and resorting to negotiations when they found the landing was to be lorcibly prevented; and they deserve no favors.
