COUNT
15ISMAUK AND
TIIR FAI'AL
HVliLAIU.'S.
From th K. T. llrrald.
A calile despatch Liu il lht Count Dismark
is doHiroiiB to get up a lvuupoim protest
Rgninst tbe Tnpiil Kyllilm. TJui 1 l ;-jitn is
not very complete, but it 1ivus tin littln room
to doubt tbut tho Oouutw juxt a willing to
fight the Pope as ho v is horio time ngo to
light Austria which bo did, as ull tba world
knows, with Borne buoccks and ns, later, ho
Las boon to fight Fruuoe. It was tho opinion
of many that because King William was mag.
nariiinous enough to prenont to tha Holy
Father for the use of tho council a oo.stly car
pet, that Trnasia as a whole and Count Bis
mark as an individual were to be passive and
indifferont spectators of tho doings of the
council. Those who knew tho feelings of the
Protestant populations of Northern Germany,
and who had formed a correct opinion of the
character of Count liismark, were not so rash
in arriving at a conclusion. The annomnce
jnent to which we call attention shows which
was right.
"We cannot think that this piece of intelh
gonco, although coinmunioated to ns very
imperfectly, is a
baseless rumor. It must
have Borne solid foundation. Intellectually
Germany is now, as she has been more or
lens regularly for the last throo hundred
years, at the head of tho nations. During the
last three hundred years we have had in
Fatherland all sorts of aotions and reactions
in politics, in science, in religion; but intel
lectualism has never ceased to be tho domi
nant characteristic of tho German race. True
of tho Trotestant North, this has boon
ecarcoly loss true of the Catholio South. True
of the Germans in Europe, it is not loss true
of the Germans in the New World. A true
German insists on having a
reason for the faith that is in him. He
may be a Catholic, a Trotestant, a ration
alist in matters of religion, a monarchist abso
lute or a monarchist qualified or a republican
in matters political; but whatovor his opinions
may be he can explain and, from his own
Standpoint at least, justify them. It was this
spirit that developed Luther and begot the
lteformation. It was this spirit that, in the
first instance, gave the First Napoleon the
mastery of Europe and that, in the second
instance, prepared, hastened, and determined
his downfall. Feople who think and who
have somo faith in thoir own judgments can
not be long deceived. This latest news from
Gormany, taken in connection with many
recent and deeply important facts, shows
that the old spirit htill lives in the sons and
daughters of Old Fatherland.
We do not forget that the opposition to the
Council and its programme has been mainly
German. Voices have been raised against
the Council in other quarters. In France
and Spain and Italy there are not a few who
bavo spoken and written extensively, in the
first place.against what it meant to do, and, in
the second, against what it has done and tried
to do. In Great Britain those who have not
eon in favor of the Council have ridiculed it
rather than reasoned against it. With one or
two exceptions it has been tho same in the
United States. North Germany has not by
any means been indifferent; but, bein!? Tro
testant, and therefore not so immediately
interested, it has hitherto waited and watched
rather than been acrcressive. In South
Germany it has been quite otherwise,
There the Council was felt to bo t
groat and dangerous instrument. It might
do good, but it might do evil. Its every act
was certain to touch them and to affect their
position. It might justify their past struggle
with the Frotestants of the North, or it might
make them ridiculous in the eyes of their
brethren and before all the world. Hence it
as that South Germany, although it has not
' leen opposed to tho Council in itsolf con
sidered, has poured forth such warnings, and
inntruotions. and remonstrances that at the
present moment the Council halts, hesitates,
trembles, and knows not what to do. The
Allgemeint Zcitung, inspired by Southern
senilis, commenced the fire before the
Council began. The searching work by
'Von Janus appeared almost simultaneously
with the opening of tha Council. Tho
Trimato of Austria, the Prince Primate of
Bohemia, and a greater than either, although
ho has no place iu the Council Dr. Dollinger
have been firm, active, and forceful in thoir
opposition. The recent letter of Dr. Dol
linger on Infallibility, which is now being
reproduced and commented upon in. every
journal in Europe, has fallen upon the Pope
and his friends like a thunderbolt. The senti
ments of Count llohonlohe, tho Prime Minis
ter of Bavaria, and of Baron Beust, the
Austro-Hungarian Chancellor, are well known.
Houth Germany, in fact, is in a state of fierce
ferment on the groat questions before the
council. It would bo tho easiest thiug in tha
world to provoko another lloforru tti.ja. The
people are ready. They require but a skilful
leader. Itisnottlie Ituuuiuulutu (Jjucoplion
or tho Bodily Assumption they cp.ro for. It
ia the Syllabus ar.d Infallibility. Thuso last
they cannot and will not swaUo.v.
It is this state of fediag which gives point
and importance to tho anuonncod attitude of
Count Bismaik. Bidiuark has no intorost in
the two questions that relate to Uariolatry.
But as a statesman ho h:is mnok to do with
loth infallibility and tho syliV.Vus. If tha
Popo is pronounced infallible, it is easy to sea
Low the Church mny bo brought into deadly
and dancrerons collision with the sooular
Dowers. If tha syllabus is endorsed Lv the
council the war is actually begun, for every
true Catholic, from tho highest dignitary
down to the humblest member, in almost
everv country on the face of tha earth, is
nlaced in an attitude of opposition to tha
civil government. This is not all, although
It is the point which most concerns such
men as Bisniark. If the propositions of
the syllabus could be shaped into law and
enforced, we Bhould not now, even in this froa
Amerina. be safe in writing this article. No
New York Herald, risinc every morning like
the sun, would shed its blessed light ou the
millions of this Continent. If, as wa have
Raid before, the Syllabus is rii'ht, tho world
for the last six hundred years, especially for
the la8t throe hundred years, has been ter.
xibly off the rails. In a country liko Prussia,
where me population in one section is 1'ro.
testant and in another section Catholic, the
doctrines of tha Syllabus, if enforcod by
the Churcn, would work, and, indeed, conk
not fail to work, serious mischief. It will
Jje strange if the Council should yet be the
occasion of another lteformation. and if an
other Luther should be found in the person of
Count Bismark.
The position of the Roman Church at the
present moment is critical in the extreme. It
seems to us to have flung away us last chance
We have watched this council and have never
failed to offer it sound and wholesome a lviee
We have warned it of danger, and we hav
often pointed out a way of deliverance. I
But our warnings and our instructions have I
bepn equally disregarded. The counoil seems
lpnt ou ruining the Churnli. w tiuo tue
world rushes on with lightning speed towards
a grund and glorious future, towards an im-
iii use unity a unity which Hhnll Know no
difi'erences in religion, do cjnlucting na
tionalities, no confusion of tongues; a unity
which will meet all the high requirements ot
prophecy and satisfy tha highost aspirations
of the human race the Church, loomngoaoic,
sighs for a dead and buried past, and with
feeble hand trios to apply the brako. But tho
foreo is irresistible. If the Church cannot
follow it must remain behind, and as another
monument of folly take its lonely place on
the deserted highway of time.
AN HISTORICAL PARALLEL THE DAN
GER BEFORE ENGLAND.
From the If. Y. Times.
M. Thiers, in his recent speech to the
French Corps Legislatif on the question of a
higher tariff on English goods, drew an his
torical parallel wnicn must nave oiten
occurred to students of history, and which is
by no means comforting to the pride of Eng
land between the Holland of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries and Great Britain
of to-day. At that period, as ia well known,
the Dutch Republic, like the present English
monarchy, had spread its roots to the most
distant soils. It had explored with unex
ampled hardihood tho Arctio regions; it had
founded colonies in India, the Indian Archi
pelago and Japan, and possessed almost the
entire trade with the richest tropical islands.
It had secured footholds in tho West indies,
and seemed about to control the North Ame
rican continent by possessing its most Im
portant river and its best harbor. The Dutch
Republic could justly boast, in those centu
ries, of being the Queen of the Seas; her
sailors, in daring and skill, wero without
enual. and her merchants showed such enter
prise and wisdom that they soon hold control
of all the vast carrying trade from tne last
to Europe.
Holland stood in commerce, in experience
of colonizing, and as a well-triod and victo
rious naval power, as liiiiciana aoes now.
Like tho inhabitants of this storm-beset
island, the Dutch were sailors almost by
nature; and m BtrucRles with tho ocean or in
battles on the sea they showed a pluck which
nothing ever seemed to subdue or bend. Lake
England, Holland also beoaino a great centre
of capital and manulacture. lhougn a little
country, she was the richest and, financially,
the most powerful in Europe. Tho vast ware
houses and rich cathedrals, and spacious
dwellings and costly galleries, which yet aur
vive, show what an immense wealth was once
stored up in those Dntch cities, as similar re
sults of riches bear witness now to the pros
perity of England. For a time the finanoe
of tho world centred in Holland, as
it does now in England. Sho was the
money changer and money lender
of Europe. Her manufactures, too, in
la ces, woollens, arms, steel wares, and costly
products of art, flooded, like tho liUglish,
the whole civilizod world, and wore ex
changed for tho most distant products of
India and America. She had, as Great
Britain has now, most experienced manu
faclurers, with vast capital behind them, and
a population of skilled aud industrious
laborers, who could surpass all other nations
in the economy and efficiency of their pro
duction. 1 et, with all this remarkable sue
cess in commerce, colonization, manufacture
and accumulated wealth, hor position was, as
Thiers . observes of England now, and . for
similar reasons, an insecure one; by no means
so solid, as the French statesman remarks, as
that of "France, which was so much behind hor
in material success.
In one most important respect, tho position
of Holland in the seventeenth century was
much stronger relatively than that of Great
Britain in the nineteenth century. The
Dutch republic had no vast rolctauc class,
and no population of paupers and criminals
increasing at a prodigious rate, which the
State could noithcr relieve nor get rid of.
She had no such tremendous questions to
solve as national education, the treatment of
pauperism, and a fair division of land. There
was no rebellious Ireland threatening hor; no
dangerous under class ready to shake society
to its basis; no such ineradicable divisions of
class us divide England. Un tha con
trary, her polity, like our own, was founded
on popular education. Her "common
chools" became the model for the Now
England free schools. Her great men often
came from the common people. In a moral
and educational point of view, she had a bet
ter future before her in 1G00 than England
has in 1()0. Sho perished or fell from her
high position, undoubtedly because her soil
could not feed her people. A single unsuc
cessful naval war stripped her of her supre
macy on tiio seas and injured her commerce;
a change of relations between different parts
oi tue world destroyed her carrying trade; her
colonies were lost, or their trade was com
peted with by other countries. With tho do-
clmo of commerce came a loss of cunital and
a decline of manufactures, dud in her reverses
hhe had no agvieullnral interest to fall baok
upon, and gradually siuk to the position of a
fucblo power, while) Franco, with not one-half
tho enterprise or the capital, being suflicieut
to Lf-mc Jl in lo dir.g her own population.
lcadily grew, and is now, as M. Thiers ob-urvc!-,
on a more fiolid position than hor
v( ulthy commercial rivul over the Channel.
iho dangerous fact for England is that her
resources lie so lauch outside of herself. Her
toil docs not feed her people, and she de
pends fur her wiiulth on manufactures and
coiumcrca. Let a grout naval war come and
tho English supremacy ou tho seas bo do
htrojed, uud Ler commerce for a time be an
nihihitfd, without internal agricultural re
sources, she would be obliged continually to
consume l.cr accumulated wealth. Vast
bodies of laboring peoplo would bo thrown
out of employ; tha paupers and dangerous
classes would become a countless horde; dis
content or revolution would shake society to
iis foundations, and production be so im
peded that England would soon lose its flnan
fiiil position aud sink as Holland sank.
Having more c.niliitirig aud dangerous ela
inf nts of population than ever had Holland,
her full would be by no means so gradual or
penceliJ. The sun of Englaud, when it does
sot, will go down in storms and disasters
woithy of tho glory of its meridian. That
muscular and dogged people will die no
peaceful or xsv death.
Wo do not forgot the claim of the English
authorities, that their present commercial
Bjtein renders their people more indepen
dent of agriculture; aud that the nnworn
vif or of their stock will enable them yet to
bear many reverses. All this may put off the
evil day, but if the past has any lessons, the
fale of Holland is tieiore England.
TROUBLE BREWLNG IN ENGLAND.
From tht H. T. Sun.
Aerarian troubles are increasing in Ireland,
and Mr. Gladstone will soon discover that by
stirrinor no the land question he has perhaps
J been opening the floodgates or revolution.
The working classon will not alwnya consent
that the national territory should vest in a
few hands. All tho recent political reforms
in Great Britain must bo rogardod as a pre
lude to a vast social reform, tho commone.o-
mont of which will depend only npon tha
rcurastances of tho period and temper of
the people. If tho present administration
had not made the Irish question tho pivot
of its existence, tue proverbial sluii-msh-
ncss of tho English mind would probably
nave staved ou puono agitation on so
cial questions for another generation; but tha
prominence given to tho grievances of tha
Irish peasantry tends to arouse the English
masses from their apathy, and opens a fair
Cold of action to the conscientious reformer
as well as to the demagogue. When saga
cious and liberal statesmen like Lord Grey
are in favor of coercive . measures in Ireland,
and of crushing in its bud an agitation whioh
threatons the supremacy of the British
oligarchy, Mr. Gladstones mottlo is put to
a severe test; and the appoal for forbearance
which he addressed to the lory loader, Dis
raeli, botrays a consciousness of weakness
which bodos no good to the stability of his
administration.
Most of the evils of which tho Irish pea
santry complain are common to thoir English
and Scotch fellow-subjects. I'aniamont re
presents the landed gentry only and not tha
peasantry, ana even tne so-cauoa radical
members have not yet gatnereu courage to
grapple with these questions in a practical
spirit. But the time is evidently approach
ing for bold statesmen to solve the problem
of social questions, and when that moment
arrives Mr. Gladstone may find it convenient
to return to his classical studios, and Mr. Dis
raeli will be nowhere.
OUR NATURALIZATION LAWS.
From the A; Y. Tribune.
A bill proposing a radical revision of our
naturalization laws in the direction of strin
gency is now on tho files of the House of
Representatives. It confines naturalizations
to the Federal Courts, and allows any immi
grant of good character to declare his inten
tion to become a citizen at any time after he
shall have taken up his residence among us,
but requires of hiiu a probation of four yoar3
thereafter before he is entitled to full citizen
ship. Thus his eutiro probntion is reduced
from five to four years; but, ho must declare
his intention at tho beginning of it, not after
a residence of three years. Tha remaining
provisions ot tho bill ore designed to pre
vent and to punish frauds in naturalization.
There is a particularly musty Joe Miiler
ism which narrates how a generous church
man was once impelled to move, in parish
moeting, an increase of the pastor's meagre
salary; on hearing of which, the alarmed
shepherd rushed into the meeting, and thus
expostulated:
"For Heaven's sake, friend, no lilpher pay allow;
I'm Plagued to death toft-'t what" rautuil now."
We are of liko mind with tho parson, and
beg Congress to hoed tho following con
siderations: This city is tlfo "head-centro"of all eloction
villainies, and, having many mora European
born than American-born adv.lt s among hor
inhabitants, is unsurpassed iu tho amount of
her fraudulent naturalizations and fraudulent
voting. By moans of theso, Cornelius W.
Lawrence (Democrat) was choson Mayor over
Gulian C. Verplanck (Whig) in 1831; by
means of these, James K. Polk was chosen
President over Henry Clay iu 18 1 1; by means
of these, General Grant wa swindled out of
the vote of our State and John T. Hoffman
swindled into her Governor's chair in 1KG8;
by means of theso, Homer A. Nolson was
mado Secretary of State over General Franz
Sigel last fall. There has baen.no gigantio
villainy in voting or counting votes yet de
vised which did not take rise in this city; wit
ness the forty thousand naturalizations by
wholesale in October, 180S, and the contem
porary issue of thirty thousand bogus certifi
cates to aliens who had never even applied
for naturalization. That the result in our
State was determined by these frauds is as
notorious as a fact well can be.
llore, then, is the wrong gigantio, fla
grant, palpable how does thi3 bill propose
to redress it ?
There are and will bo election districts
wherein tho voters are nearly or quite all
Democrats, such as tho Five Points, Corlaer's
Hook, Mackerelville, etc (At the Five
Points, the vote last fall stood Sigel, 15;
Nelson, !U0; while we are confident that tho
legal voters residing in that distriot number
loss than 500.) At such places, tho poll is
surrounded throughout the day by an excited,
shouting, drinking crowd, not very sobor in
the morning, but growing steadily drunker as
the day wears on all intent on swelling the
vote and the Democratic majority to tha
utmost. No Republican ventures to staud
before the inspectors and challenge all
whom he believes not leg:d voters. If he
docs, the cry is soon raised that ha is seek
ing to obstruct and prevent tha polling of
the full vote, so as to reduce the Demo
cratic majority, and ho is advised to make
himself scarce directly which ho does,
or soon wiskrs ho had dono. Very
often, ho is admonished by tho policemen pro
sent to get Rwoy from that, or he will be
FmtisLed so he pots away. No Democratic
inspector will try to arrest tho ftvalanche of
illegal voting; no Republican inspector d ire
seriously undertake it. Practically and sub
stantially, therefore, every ouo votes who
chooses to claim tho privilege, provided ho
proffers "the regular straight-out Democratic
ticket." Thousands vole iu one of theso
Btroneliolas, and ttion repair cireclly to
ai oilier to veto agair; and so keep ou till
night or drunken stupcr arrests their progress.
And now there is a bill before our Legislature
to open the polls at G A. M. and keep thorn
opfcu till P. M. Should that, pass, it will in
crease the vote and the Domocratio majority
hero Ly many thousands, though not oua
more person should voto than voted before;
because it will enable the repeaters to vote
twice or thrice more each.
We are not partial to compromises: yet we
would be willing to allow every alien to vote
after a year's residence among us; provided
we could thereby be assured that no one should
vote more than once at any one elootion. The
aliens would beat us here, of course; but it
takes the repeaters to knock the breath of life
out of us.
Now what good can be secured by rendering
naturalization more diflioult, so long as thou
sands vote on bogus certificates, thousands
more without having been naturalized at all,
and these and other thousands keep voting
once and again till night or drink stops
them? "Sir," said a veteran disoiplo of Tam
many, in a recent grog-shop disoussion, "I
would have you know that I nave voted these
twenty-seven years, and always the regular
Democratic jticket!" "The fyou have!"
was the contemptuous response; "well, I've
voted that same ticket twenty-seven times at
one election." Tho old fogy knocked undor
at once.
Whatever Congress may do or leave un
done, we trust all who have in good faith
declared their intentions will be guaranteed
their right to citizenship at the time stipu-
hit ad in the laws under whioh they have thus
far acted. It would te scarcely consistent
with good faith now to lengthen thoir term
of probation.
If Congress should render naturalization
niore difficult, the States will soon be found
amending their constitutions so as to allow
aliens to vote on proof of settlement and a
brief residence. Then the proposed aet will
have no other effect than to render our im
migrant population more unanimously and
bitterly hostile to thoso who passed it.
Wouldn't that be quite superfluous?
On the whole, we trnst Congress will
think twice yes, thrico before passing any
such lavr.
