THE dCCUMENICAL COUNCIL.
Doiimo the present week the OEoumenical
Cotinoil assembled at Home, and commenced
its deliberations amid imposing ceremonies.
The expectation that arrangements would be
made for the prompt publication of its pro
ceedings has proved fallacious, and the order
forbidding the reporter of the London Times
from entering the Papal dominions indicates
that only partial aocounts, or such versions as
have been duly rovised, amended, and expur
gated, will from time to time be given to the
world. Grave temporal as well as spiritual
questions will be considered, and if free de
bate is permitted, some of the discussions
can scarcely fail to be very animated, bo that
genoral roaders have no slight cause to regret
the determination to prohibit full contempo
raneous reports. The peculiar constitution
of the council necessarily gives it a strong
disposition to sanction any doctrine the Pope
may wish to promulgate, and yet there are
strong symptoms of opposition, arising from
various causes, in various quarters. One
class, for instance, contends that the council
possosses the power to consider any subject
connected with the welfare of the Church;
that it can decide in favor of any reform
which may be suggested by any of its
members; or that, In other words, it possesses
a right to originate measures, similar to that
which Napoleon has recently granted to the
French Assembly. This is one of the rights
for which Father Hyacinthe contends, in con
junction with no inconsiderable number of
other liberal Catholics. But it has apparently
Leon overruled in advance, and the zealous
supporters of Papal power concede to Pius IX
and his immediate counsellors not only the
privilege of defining the subjects of discus
sion, but, in a large degree, the power to
dictate the dacisions of the council. Inter
woven with this dispute is the vexed ques
tion of the infallibility of the Pope. It is
commonly reported that attempts will be
made to affirm the undeviating correctness of
his opinions on temporal as well as spiritual
affairs, and thus to make his word a law from
which there is no appeal. It is believed,
Iiowever, that a considerable portion of the
ecclesiastics in attendance will bitterly oppose
this pretension, and stoutly maintain that,
while his opinions on temporal affairs must
fca judged, like those of other potentates, by
their intrinsic merits, he is, in some classes of
spiritual subjects, liable to be overruled by
general oouncils.
The importance of the impending contro
versies is greatly increased by their appre
hended bearing on the civil affairs of Ca
tholic countries, and of countries which, like
Be United (States, embrace a large Catholic
J ovulation. If the doctrines enunciated in
le Syllabus of Errors are carried out to
Voir logical conclusion, religious liberty must
J)o totally destroyed, and Church- and State
5uunt be everywhere united on terms dictated
ly Catholic ecclesiastics. And yet there is
not at this moment a single important nation
willing to submit to such a decree. Even
Italy now rojoices in her new freedom, and
but a few months ago one of Victor Emanu
el's ministers announced, officially, that the
Italian Government would not permit any
aotiou of the council to "trespass upon the
laws of the kingdom and the rights of the
Btate." A similar attitude has been assumed
tj Spain and Germany. France will scarcely
consant to belie her past history by making
concessions which even Austria, Italy, and
Spain refuse to grant. The eulogistic refer
ence to the council which appeared in Napo
leon's late address to the French Chambers is
probably due to the fact that he shares the
wish of the Archbishop of Paris that it may
become a truly reformatory body instead of a
reactionary assemblage, and that he was anx
ious to exert all his influence to give it this
direction.
In the face of hostile decrees from Catholic
Governments, it is difficult to understand how
any substantial benefits are to be derived
from the formal promulgation of ultra Papal
doctrines. In some cases they would doubt
less prove as inefficacious as the bull against
the comet. Hut a fear is expressed that they
Would foment insurrections and lead to reli
gious wars. This dunger is probably exagge
rated, but still it is not without foundation.
If the programme presented to the (Eoume
liioal Council is adopted in its entirety, intole
rance will beoome a fundamental part of the
revised creed, and pretensions will bo set up
which will compel many communities to de
cide between unqualified submission or active
resistance. The final issue of such a confliot,
in this age, can scarcely be doubtful, but it is
within the bounds of possibility that it may
engender much bitter strife and bloodshed.
Thh luckiest of men is General Spinner,
the indomitable watch-dog of the Treasury,
During the time that be has held his present
position, the money transactions or the Trea
sury foot up an aggregate exceeding $44,000,
IXX,000, yet not one cent has been lost to the
people, all the discrepancies that have been
detected having been so insignificant that they
have been made straight by the persons re
eponsible for them. This is not less credita
ble to Goneral Spinner than it is gratifying to
the people with the handling of whose money
he bos been entrusted. Other officials whoso
responsibilities have been nothing in couipa
pon have been unable to present such a
balance sheet, and we are inclined to believe,
with the gonial Treasurer, that it is not all
"mere luck."
THE JU GUTS OF WHITE MEN. I
Thb Nations! Executive Committee of Col-'
ored Men of the United States has issued an
address to the pooplo of Liberia, to which we
respectfully call the attention of our Demo
cratic contemporaries. This document is an
earnest and philanthropic appeal in behalf of
the white population of the young Afrioan
republic. The gist of the argument is that,
in the opinion of the intelligent colored men
of the United States, the whites have some
rights that black men ought to respect even
in Africa, and the people of Liberia are en
treated to strike the word "white" out of
their Constitution, and to repeal the laws
that disfranchise persons who may not have
a visible admixture of black blood in their
veins. This address shows at least that the
black men of the United States are willing to
do as they wish to be done by, and they sug
gest very forcibly that the people of Liberia,
because they have the power to do so, cannot
proscribe others without virtually acknow
ledging that their former oppressors were
blameless in proscribing them. It will cer
tainly be a glorious day for Liberia when this
advice is adopted and the rights of white
men are freely acknowledged. Then the
most uncompromising Democrat in our
Fourth ward can emigrate to Africa, if he
wishes to better his condition, and will be re
ceived with open arms by his black brethren
on the Liberian shores. He will be permitted
to take out his naturalization papers and to
vote at all the elections just as freely as if his
face was as black as the ace of spades; and if
he behaves himself he will undoubtedly be
quite as much respected as if his blood were
pure Congo, without any "visible admixture."
We hope sincerely that the Liberians will
heed the counsel of their American brethren,
and make haste to remove the reproach that
now rests upon them by the proscriptive
clauses of their constitution. The time has
passed when such enactments can be allowed
to exist in a free country without discredit,
and Liberia will make a decided advance and
win tho applause of mankind when she
ceases, to discriminate in her laws between
white and black.
the pauper question in eng.
LAND.
The material assistance rendered to the poor
of London by the late Mr. Peabody pre
sents a startling contrast to the brutal treat
ment which they receive at the hands of the
officials who are paid for the especial pur
pose of ascertaining and relieving their
wants. Altogether, there are thirty-eight
different Boards of Guardians of the Poor
in the English metropolis, and more than
fifteen hundred officials of all grades con
nected with the administration of the laws
for the relief of the poor, their salaries
amounting in the aggregate to over hnlf a mil
lion of dollars. The compensation received
by the chaplains, physicians, and clerks fre
quently amounts to !$2."00 per annum, with
lodgings and rations in addition. Yet, despite
these facts, the poor of London are in a
sorrier plight than those of any other great
city in the civilized world. Greenwood,
the "Amateur Casual," has given us vivid
sketches of the harshness of treatment to
which they are subjected, and the London
papers have been filled for months past with
accounts of the corruption in which the poor
law officials are steeped, more especially in
the parish of St. Pancras. In Eng
land poverty is a profession. There
are tens of thousands of miserable
wretches who are born to beggary as their
only birthright and solitary calling tnrough
life. The evil is so great that it may justly
be regarded as characteristic of the English
nation; and one of the most difficult tasks
which demands the attention of the Liberal
government is the answering of the question
as to how this vast pauper multitude can be
lifted out of the mire and transformed into a
class of respectable, useful, and law-abiding
citizens. The solution of this problem will
be as great a triumph for Mr. Gladstone as
the overthrow of the great Church iniquity in
Ireland; but it is a triumph which demands
the exercise of even a higher grade of states
manship than sufficed to bring about disesta
blishment. JERSEY IN JEOPARDY.
The women of New Jersey have been hold
ing a convention at Newark during the week,
in the interest of the female suffrage move
ment. By the women of New Jersey, in this
connection, we mean, of course, a few of the
strong-minded and weak-headed sort, who
kindly consent to do the talking and agitating
for the thousands of sensible women whose
home duties and privileges content them.
Years ago, before the question of female suf
frage was thought to be worthy of serious
attention on the part of either men or women,
the latter were permitted to vote at a certain
class of elections in New Jersey; and it is
said that, although but few of them took
advantage of the privilege, these few made
the most of it, and not content with casting
one ballot, smuggled into the box as many
different tickets as they could, making
changes in their dress between each assault
upon the polls, to facilitate their double deal
ing. The Newark suffragists have not only
heard of these sharp practices, but they have
also ascertained, in some mysterious way,
that their right to stuff tho ballot-box has
never been legally taken away from them,
and hence they propose to organize associa
tions throughout the State with the object of
enforcing their alleged rights and securing
the election of Congressmen and Assembly
men who will advocate their political equality
with the sterner sex. We will risk the asser
tion, however, that there are not now living
in our neighbor State one hundred women
who endeavor to do their full duty in all the
relations of domestic life that have a partiole
of sympathy for the schemes whioh have un
settled the wits of the old women who have
been holding the suft'rugo convention at
Newark.
Tkk FoitKidN Commhtke of the lower
house of Congress would seem to be an ex
cellent school of diplomacy. It is reported
that, when their report on t he l'aragn aran diffi
culties is presented, it. will sustain the action
of our naval officers on the Brazilian station,
and, at the same time, fully justify tho course
of ex-Minister Washburn. Precisely how the
committee will contrive to blow hot and cold
in the same breath we are not informed, and
when tho secret is revealed it will certainly bo
one worth knowing.
THE USES OF ALASKA.
Thkhk is probably in the mind of every
American citizen a vague but positive idea
that the "manifest destiny" of this nation is
to possess at some future time the entire con
tinent, with all its insular appendages. Our
territory is already immensely out of propor
tion to our population, but then we are grow
ing fast, and need room to expand; and there
is no good reason why we should not realize
our dreams of empire at the earliest possible
day. It would not only be gratifying to na
tional pride, but there would be many greut
and definite advantages, if the United States
owned the entire territory from the North
Pole to the Isthmus of Panama, but we really
are not in such need of the country to the
north and south of us, nor are the advantages
to be derived from its ownership so great, as
to warrant the expenditure of much ready
money for the sake of obtaining control of it.
Mr. Seward managed to get over seven mil
lions of dollars out of our impoverished trea
sury for the purchase of one of the most un
desirable and unpromising sections of the
continent, and the results of his Alaskan
land speculation have not been so gratifying
as to encourage any further operations in
thnt direction.
The appearances are that Russia has real
ized all the solid advantages of Mr. Seward's
bargain in the shape of a good round sum in
hard cash, and the people of the United
States have listened with interest to all the
reports from our new territory, hoping that it
might realize at least some of the expecta
tions formed of it from the glowing accounts
of Us climate, mineral wealth, and magnifi
cent timber, that were circulated about the
time of the consummation of the purchase.
Alaska, however, has not come up to expecta
tions, nor does it seem likely that it ever will.
General Thomas, in his report of operations
in his department, states that he sees no
prospect of the country being settled up.
The climate is too rigid, and there is too
much rain and too little sun for agriculture.
Most of the military posts have gardens at
tached to them, in which are raised turnips,
radishes, lettuce, and other watery vegeta
bles. Potatoes of moderately eood quality
can also be raised, but they will not keep for
any length of time, and the moisture of the
climate is so great that these vegetables, and
barley, (oats, wheat, and other grains, will not
ripen or come to maturity. General Thomas
states that comparatively little land is suita
ble for agricultural purposes at all, and that
the summer, though pleasant while it lasts, is
not long enough for successful farming. The
timber is of the finest quality, and in many
places conveniently located, but the supply in
Oregon, Washington Territory, and British
Columbia is equally good, and much better
situated for a market.
Unless we abandon this territory to the Es
quimaux and the wild animals, confessing to
the world that we have foolishly thrown our
money away, it will be necessary to retain a
military force there to support the authority
of the United States. This is anything but
pleasant to the unfortunate soldiers who are
thus banished from civilization; for the pro
babilities are that, with the exception of a few
traders, they will be the only white inhabit
ants of Alaska. This raises the question,
however, whether the territory could not be
utilized as a penal settlement. Our prisons
and penitentiaries are crowded with offenders
who area charge to society, and whom it would
be very desirable to get rid of, if possible. If
our soldiers can stand the climate of Alaska,
our criminals would be subjected to no im
proper hardship if transported there and
forced to labor hard to earn their bread and
keep themselves warm. The prospect of ban
ishment to such a place would undoubtedly
have a most wholesome influence in the pre
vention of crime, for those disposed to offend
against the luws could readily be made to un
derstand that this wonld be a real punish
ment, and that, once landed in Alaska, it
would be no easy matter to get away again.
This subject is certainly worthy of attention,
at least as a means for getting a partial re
turn for the money Mr. Seward inveigled us
into spending.
KNIT POUTER.
Vio:-Ai)M)r.Ai. Fokteu has been ordered away
from the Naval Academy, and Commodore
Worden has been assigned to the posi
tion of superintendent of that ' institu
tion in his place. This is a change that
no one who has the good of the institu
tion at heart will regret. It is notorious that
the Naval Academy is very far below West
Point in scholarship, in discipline, and in
every other respect, while the pretensions of
its graduates are very frequently in an inverse
proportion to their attainments. Vice-Admi-ral
Porter is one of those men who think that
the navy exists solely for the benefit of the
particular class of officers to which he belongs,
and during his administration as superintend
ent he has encouraged to the utmost that aris
tocratic sentiment that is the bane of the naval
service, and he has done little or nothing to
raise tho standard of efficiency. He under
stands exceedingly well the art of blowing his
own trumpet, and he has managed to keep
himself before the public and to exploit
abroad what he esteems the peouliar merits
of the Academy, but without convincing the
people of tho country that the institution is
all that it should be. If this officer had imi
tated the modesty of merit that is character-
teiistic of General Sherman, Lieutonaut-Gone-ral
Sheridan, and Admiral Farragut, he would
possess vastly more influence than he does,
but his excessive desire for notoriety has im
pressed the public that he is a good deal of a
humbug, aud his performances during the
last nine months, especially as factotum of ttitt
Navy Department, have done incalculable iu
jr.ry to himself and to the naval service.
It was certainly high time that Vice-Admiral
Porter should bo relieved from duty at the
Naval Academy, for sinco the 1st of March
he has given but little of bis time and atten
tion to tho institution. Instead of devoting
himself to his legitimate duties, he has been
engaged in pushing all manner of sehomos
in behalf of a certain "ring" of officers who
assume to be the navy.
It is certain that the performances of Porter
at the Navy Department have not given satis
faction. The position he occupies there is an
exceptional one, not sanctioned by law, and
both in and out of the service his influence
has been thought to be most injurious. If
the Secretary requires advisers he has his
chiefs of bureaux, who ought to be capable of
giving him all proper instruction and assist
ance in his dutios; and if it is nocessary to
have an officer in charge of the Secretary's
conscience, the best plan would be to abolish
the position of Secretary of the Navy alto
gether, and place the department entirely in
the hands of naval men who will do the
work and take the' responsibility. That any
good would result from such a change as this
no one believes, and Admiral Porter has
proved conclusively that he for one
has not the right kind of
ability or the unbiased judgment neces
sary for the proper administration of the
Navy Department. Since he has been in the
position of right-hand mau to the Secretary,
the Navy Department has been made the
object of ridicule by all sorts of eccentric
schemes and projects; and the best thing that
can now be done with Porter is to assign him
to some sphere of duty for which he is fitted
It was a good move to get him out of the
Naval Academy, and it will be a good move
to get him out of the Navy Department,
where he has no right to be, under the exist
ing arrangements.
THE GOVERNMENT PRINTING.
VS the Senate, Mr. Anthony, chairman of the
Committee on Printing, in presenting a report
from that committee, stated that he intended
to call the attention of Congress at an early
day to the necessity of a reform in the whole
business of the public printing. When it is
remembored that, according to the recent re
port of the Superintendent of the Govern
ment Printing Office, l,.';!."i,."):tl were ex
pended during the year ending September
,'i), 18(i!, in carrying on that establishment,
the people out of whose pockets comes the
money which is thus disposed of will be
likely to second heartily the effort of Mr,
Antnony in bringing aiiont a relorm. it is
true that the establishment of the Govern
nient printing office has caused the saving of
hundreds of thousands of dollars every year,
besides resulting in a much superior quality
of work than was produced under the old
contract system; but there is still a broad
margin of absolute waste left on which Con
gress can operate in the interest of economy.
A vast majority of the documents which
emanate from the Government press are
utterly worthless, and for such of them as
are of any value the persons who desire them
should be obliged to pay at least the cost of
production, except in comparatively rare
cases. When Congress sees fit to abolish the
iniquitous franking system, these documents
will no longer be in such demand as they are
at present, and the first and most sensible
step towards bringing about a reform in the
printing business would seem to lie in this
direction.
Agkiitlitkai. Labokeksix Knoi.am). The com
missioners appointed to investigate the condition of
agricultural laborers In England have made reports,
which give some Idea of the rural districts. Much of
the lighter work is done by women and boys. In the
noble county of Warwickshire women get from six
pence to tenpence a day, and the Irishwomen are
said to le very efficient laborers. Boys get from one
shilling and sixpence to three shillings a week. With
board, boys' wares begin at thirty shillings seven
dollars and a half in gold a year. The cottages are
miserably unhealthy and demoralizing. In Worces
tershire laborers get small wages nine shillings to
thirteen shillings a week and arc only found In
cider, of which they drink from two to six quarts a
day. Nearly all the men are dmnken, and men drunk
on cider generally abuse their wives. The cider is also
said to be a cause of the prevailing rheumatism. In
sixty-three parishes in Stairordshire twenty-five
per cent, of the cottages had only one bedroom,
"and nine per cent, contained a family with three
children, or more, living In that one bedroom." In
Shropshire the cottages are described as infamous.
Tumbledown and ruinous, not water-tight, very de
ficient In bedroom aecommodutiou and iu decent
sanitary arrangements. Un some estates the laltor
era herd In the open villages; while on mauy others
coitugi'H are to be found belonging to the owner of
the soil, which are a disgrace to any civilized coun
try. With regard to education, it Is reported that
largo numbers of children who need Instruction are
left without it, partly, It may be, from lack of school
accommodation, but still more from luck of proper
Interest on the part of the parents. The condition
of tho peasantry, In no part very satisfactory, Is ile
plorably low In the hill country of the southwest.
Wages are low, the hours of labor are long, agree
ments between employers and laborers are uncer
tain, and the system of privileges and of part pay
ment In beer and cider prevails. And there, writes a
correspondent, are the rich central counties of Eng
luud, where the country is one greut garden of
beauty and the land pays Immense revenues to its
lordly proprietors. The following paragraph from a
recent number of the London Tiinva shows how some
of the people of Devonshire live :
"The head of the family Is an old mau, and he is
the owner of thirty acres of laud. On this property
he has no house, but In a barn, without windows or
(lours, he, his wife, bis son, three daughters, unmar
ried, and a numerous progeny resale. There Is
scarcely a vestige of furniture In this dilapidated
bullillug, and the manner in which those people live
