Nearlt every Democrat in Congross voted yesterday against the following resolution: "Resohvfi, That the I liferents of the country require uch a tariff for revenue upon foreign Imports as will allord Incidental protection to fnmeftt.ic mnna faoturea, and m will, without Impairing tho reve nue, Impose the leant harden upon and boat promote and encourage tUe great Industrial Interests or the country. This resolution was copied verbatim from the Democratic platform of 1808, and it does not enunciate a single idea that has not been incorporated in all the National Democratic platforms of the last quarter of a century for the purpose of deceiving and carrying Penn sylvania in Presidential eleotions. And yot, when the resolution was introduced into the House, the sagacious Democratic statesmen of that body, who prate bo much about prin ciple and platforms, did not recognize a stereotyped clause of their own avowed creed, and in their eagerness to maintain the ultra free-trade ideas which they sincerely cherish, they voted squarely against the "in cidental protection" they have hitherto pro tended to favor. By this vote they avow their hostility to every form of aid to Ameri can industry. Even when it can be granted without detriment to tax-payers, or loss to the revenue, they wish it to be Withheld. They wish the tariff to be treated Solely as a means of raising revenue, and when in adjusting it a preference can be shown between American and foreign manufactures, they wish to promote the interests of the latter at the expense of the former. For once they gave a sincere expression to their trne principles, and apprised the people in terms that cannot be explained away or mis understood that they will endeavor, as far as it is in their power, to confine American energy to agricultural pursuits, making tho citizens of this country all cultivators of the soil or merchants, and completely re-establishing the old industrial vassalage of this nation to foreign manufacturers. The triumph of this doctrine would inflict more misery and more certain ruin upon Philadelphia than the capture of this city by an invading army. It would in ten years of persistent enforcement make the State of Pennsylvania as poor as pretentious but poverty-stricken Virginia was before the war. It would fill our streets with starving men and women, pluage thousands of capitalists into hopeless bankruptcy, thin out our popula tion, and so greatly reduce the aggregate pro ducts of the country that the national credit could no longer be sustained, so that the Gov ernment itself would be paralyzed by its be trayal of the interests it is in honor and jus tice bound to sustain. A few of the Democrats of this State votad ; or the resolution and against the horrible doctrine of a striot revenue tariff, but they received no aid and comfort from their col leagues, and hereafter Democracy, when not curbed and checked by the most powerful local interests, must be classified as synony mous with undying hostility to every Ameri can manufacturer. 1JIE RESPONSIBILITY OF NAVAL COMMANDERS, Is commenting some days ago upon the case of Lieutenant-Commander Seely, who was court-martialled for cruelty practised upon certain seamen on board of the United States steamer Pawnee, of which he was executive officer, we made a comparison with the case of Surgeon Greene, who was most unjustly found guilty and severely sentenced because be declined to declare a si ok man well when ordered to do so by his commanding officer. The judgment of the court that tried Dr. Greene was that he should be suspended from rank on furlough pay for two years, and be publicly reprimanded by the Seoretary of the Navy. In the case of Seely, the Secre tary sent back the sentence of the court for revision several times, on the ground that it was not severe enough, and the utmost that he was able to extort was a sentence of sus pension from duty, on furlough pay, for four years, with a public reprimand from the Seoretary. The Secretary was obliged to confirm this sentence, or else allow Seely to go unpunished. The Washington (D. C.) JfrmibUcan quotes our article, and in its edi torial endorsement of the opinions advanced by us with regard to this outrageous perver sion of justice, it gives a piece of informa tion that was not in our possession when we wrote. The Republican says, referring to the article in The Eventkq Telegraph: These views are fully In accord with the opinion already expressed in the column of the Republican, and Uie case is the more remarkable for the reason that the flrit untenct of tht court, for which the pro- ending were seui uav uj m owreiury ui me .navy, imi vientioally the tame ax inac jouna ojr trie remark mhU court that tat in iudument on Dr. Urtene't cant: showing that In the opinion of the line otlloers who comtioaed thes eourta the same punishment la due to a line offloer who tortures men by cruel punish ments and to a medical ofllcer who endeavors to protect them. But a more Important question rii here. What Is the duty and responsibility of a. commandlnir officer In the United States navyT Why la not the captain of the Pawnee even censured for permitting such cranltina in his command? Do naval ottluera mean when they talk about the authority and supremacy of 'the executive ottlcer' that he shall have un limited power over all on board ship, to the exclu sion of the responsihllty of the commander? If not, why U not Captain Clitz held accountable for these wroDgs ai weU as his subordinates? Without pro feiuliiir ta decide In such hleh conoerns as naval usure and dlsclollne. we are decidedly of the opinion that the stair otlloers of the navy are right in de claring that the only responsible authority on txiard Ship must be the commanding ofllcer, If discipline Is to be niaintainea wnn justice." The query of the Republican with regard to the responsibility of Captain Clitz in this matter is very much to the point. Accord- nJ " of the . -um u, fi, agent a ciie corniniuuler, whuM personally respon sible. 'Without extonuating in any degree the offense of Body, we cannot help thinking that lie was made the soapo-goat in this in stance," and that the captain of the Pawnee ought to be held accountable for outrages perpetrated npon the men nndor his com mand, unless he can prove in the most con clusive manner that he is blameless in thought, word, and deed, and that Seely acted entirely on bis own responsibility,' thereby usurping the prerogatives of his supe rior ofiloer. General Sherman, in his letter to Admiral Porter on the subject of staff rank, said that he did not wish to sail in a ship with more than one captain a remark, by-the-way, that had no relevancy to the matter under disoussion but if the executive officers of our men-of-war are to have the power and re sponsibility that the failure to inquire into the complicity of Captain Clitz with the orimos of Seoly arguos, the very condition of affairs deprecated by General Sherman will ooour; and with two captains to obey, the o floors of the line as well as the staff, not to speak of the men before the mast, will find life on board of our naval vessels intolerable, and the demoralization of the naval service will be oomplete. This is the very condition of affairs that is being brought about by the jeal ousy of the line officers, who, fearful that the Btair will gain some position and influence, are seeking to strengthen the hands of the executive officers, so that they will be able to maintain their own supremacy at all hazards. It is well for the naval servioe that Buch mat ters as these are being brought to light, and discussed openly and fairly in the newspapers of the country, for the people and their re presentatives in Congress will be the better able to judge what are the real evils that afflict the navy and rendor it unpopular, and will enablo them the better to apply the necessary remedies. With regard to Captain Clitz, we hope that such a pressuro will be brought upon the Navy Department as will compel an inquiry into his conduct as com mander of the Pawnee, and secure his proper punishment if he is in any degree implicated in the offenses of Seely. COMPULSORY EDUCATION. The plan recently proposed, to compel all children between certain ages to attend school, publio or other, seems to us, thongh we recognize tho truth of tho principles on which it is based, to be impracticable, at least for the present. It is undoubtedly true that the integrity of our republican institutions, a high stale of social purity, a minimum of crime of every sort, and the best good of the individual, are all most certainly assured by the education of our future citizens. If the next genera tion, or even a very large proportion of it, understands the fundamental truths on which our Government rests, the probability of any vital change is ren dered very small. If the examples which history affords of the destruction of other free governments by official misdemeanor and corruption are before the people, the latter will much less good-naturedly look on while their own servants squander and steal tho publio money. If a higher intellectual stan dard than now marks the people as a whole can be attained by them, immorality and crime must be diminished, since both vice and open violence to the laws of society spring from and live upon ignorance. And if the citizen be intelligent and informed, his own success and prosperity, whether profes sional man, merchant, mechanic, or laborer, are rendered the surer and the easier of at tainment. And yet, though to all these principles in the abstract, we, of oourse, yield assent (and there are few minds, perhaps, which would not), still, their results, when de veloped into practice, and especially as they concern this question of compulsory educa tion, are grave enough to warrant much cau tion before our city commits itself to the pro posed law. Society no doubt has the right to insure itself against impending evils as perfectly as it has the power to remove the evils when they exist. From this point of view, per haps, it may be justified in compelling the adoption by its members of any measures for the prevention of crime that may be deemed necessary. But whether a sooiety established upon the broad foundation of the greatest personal liberty consistent with civio existence and well-being may go aside to enact laws based upon general principles which are true in practice only after a groat number of exceptions have boon mode this, we think, is a question that certainly has two sides. In other words, ignorant men are not the only criminals, and the highest education sometimes leads directly into tho grossest vices. Of course, the tendency of ignorance is to immorality, and that of edu cation to virtue; but we doubt if ignorance is so fruitful a source of wrong-doing that Phila delphia will be justified in saying to her citi zens who wish their sons to earn money at twelve years of age, "You mast wait until they are sixteen. That in a vast majority of cases it would be bettor for the boys to wait the four years, does not affect the argument. It must be for an evidently sufficient cause, and for such a cause only, that the liberty of the citizen to direct his son's mode of life shall be curtailed. The statistical evideaoe to the origin of vice and crime must be very clear before so exoessive an authority may be wielded by a free government. But more than this. The law, if it is to accomplish its intention, must be enforced Btriotly, and all possible evasions must be carefully guarded against. The man, therefore, who prefers a tutor for his son, or is willing to commit his daughter to her mother or older sister as teacher, must either be forbid den to adopt these plans, or else be'put to the trouble of showing to the proper officers the regularity and disciplinary results of this private teaching. In many cases such in struction accomplishes what no school can effect, but it would bo no easy task to con vince some of oar school directors of this fact. If the authority to compel were committed to such men as in some of our school sections now manage publio education, it would be impossible to force any but self evident truths throngh their skulls. So, too, if the law is to be made rigid, we must at once spend by no means small sums of money in providing increased acoommodo. lions for our schools. Already these are too small by tho spnee needed for about twenty, five hundred children waiting anxiously for admittance. Is Philadelphia able just now to provide for twenty thousand others who by this law would havo to attend sohool for six months in each year ? , The proposition, then, is one that may woll be postponed, at least for more pcrfoct consi deration than seems to have yet been given it. It is a noteworthy fact that the movement in Congress for the expulsion of members guilty of corrupt practices commences at tho time whon the ratification of the fifteenth amendment substantially disposes of tho questions connected with reconstruction. We trust that this is a favorable augury that now, since the Union is restored, and sinoe negroes have obtainod tho right of suffrage, a grand effort is to be made to purify the executive and legislative branches of Government, and to restore an era of old-fashionod honesty and economy. If such be, indeed, the inten tion of the leading spirits of the nation, tho people should hail it with joy. All the the oretical changes and constitutional amend ments that the wit of man can devise will not materially lighten their heavy burdens or ad vance their interests, if tho men who pass appropriation bills and make laws are in fluenced by corrupt considerations. Whoever does most now to drive dishonesty and incom petency from the publio service will confer the greatest benefit upon the American people. If we are to believe a despatch sent from Havana yesterday, "the colored troops fought bravely" a few days ago, on the line of the railroad between Puerto Principe and Nue vitas. It is said that one hundred of these sable heroes drove off six hundred insurgents. That they fight at all on the side of the Spanish authorities against men who allege that they are acting as liberators of the colorod race is a singular circumstance, unless we adopt the conclusion that they distrust aliko the ability and disposition of tho revolution ists to advance tho cause of emancipation. And if there is even a semblance of truth in tho Havana despatch, the prospects of tho in surgents muBt be exceedingly desperate, for how can they withstand, in addition to the gunboats, the Spanish soldiers, and tho Cuban volunteers, negro troops who win victories against the odds of Rix to one ? A comi'auison between Republican and Demo cratic rule is drawn by tho New York Tribune, which Is not at all flattering to the Democracy. "Taking out the Judgments against the city of New York," says tho Tribune, "seven-eighths of which are dear stealing, we And this result: Cost of law In New York in 1807 1321-918 Cost of law in all the United Stales under tho Cieneral Government 375.990 New York city more than the 37 States and 10 Territories 44r.,yj "What makes rents so high and living so expen sive T Because we pay after this fashion.

Why are honest and noble women doomed to unending drudgery In unhealthy shops aud dwell ings In this metropolis of the Western World? Look at the figures we give above, and you are answered. Yoii are the hewers of wood and drawers of water for a gang of pluudorors who began their deep-laid plans twenty years ago, when we aptly designated the Common Council as the Forty Thieves. From the first conception, In which Alderman Sturtevant was the leader and Fer nando Wood the promoter, we have gone on until the city Is saddled with somo ten thousand useless officers, who are, like vampires, sucking out the life- blood of the people. You, citizen of New York, and your wife and children, live by the sufferance of these unscrupulous politicians. You wear hodden grey, and creep through by-streets, because you cannot afford to purchase line clothes ; while others, notoriously corrupt, drink the costliest wines and parade Broadway in royal attire, flashing with rare diamonds. WorklHg man, whoyays for that? You do; for not one of the men to whom we allude ever honestly earned a hundred dollars In his life. And so perfect has the system or robbery become that the tax-earners of New York paid more in 1B0T for Judgments against the city than the entire coat of the Judiciary system of the United States." Suppose we give the Demo, cracy a show In this city also. Tbk Students op Madrid do not seem quite to agree with the present Ministry as to the meaning of the word liberty. It senms that, in oonsoquence of very flagrant idleness on the part of a great number af these "sons of the muses," the rector and senate of the university Issued a decree expelling every one of them who, without sufficient reason, should ab sent himself In future from the lectures for more than a fortnight. This gave great umbrage to the parties concerned, and they began to ask whether these were the fruits of the glorious revolution? whether these were the promises held out by the Minister of Education as to freedom of Instruction ? whether this, In short, was a constitutional proceed- uig ? The M lnlster of the Interior, thus appealed to, replied that he thought the decree, with which he fully agreed, very compatible with the freedom of Instruction ; and tnat, moreover, he would send to prison every one who should demur to it In a disor derly manner. Peace now reigns in the Alma Mater of Madrid, and the students show a remarkable assiduity. We, for oar own part, object to despot- Ism in any form, but perhaps we may eongratu late both the Minister and the students on this occa sion. 1SCKKASED FACILITIES.
