THE HAY OF JUBILEE.
OiTit streets to-day present a singular specta
cle, one which the most sanguine and enthu
siastic abolitionist would scarcely have
dreamed of, even ten years ago, when the
groat civil war was just at its beginning. I?y
curious coincidence, the colorod people of
Thilttdelphia have selected for their demon
strations over the promulgation of the fif
teenth amendment the very day on which
ther unreconstructed chivalry of the South are
to decorate the graves of those who fought
and died for "the lost cause." These two
ceremonies present the two extremes in
forcible contrast. We may quibble as much
as we please about the origin and object of
the Rebellion. The privilege of treating the
negro upon the principle that he had no
rights which a white man was bound to
respect was the pivot upon which the whole
struggle turned; it was to maintain this
privilege that the South rushed to arms and
attempted to . destroy the Union; it was the
natural and inevitable sequence of their
defeat that every trace of this inhuman
maxim should be rooted out. The
restoration of the Union, with the
institution of slavery preserved intact,
was an absolute impossibility from the start,
although good and patriotic men ten jears
ago did not hesitate to declare that such a
consummation waa both practicable and de
sirable. Slavery went down with the sinking
fortunes of the Rebellion, and as soon as the
war was fairly at an end, it was patent to
everybody that the negro must be placed on
an absolute equality before the law with the
white man, if we would not yield up to our
defeated foes half of the fruits of the conflict.
Without the ballot in the Southern States, the
freedman was still at the mercy of his ene
mies, and when the ballot was once placed
in his hands in the Southern States, consis
tency, aside from simple justice, demanded
that the negro of the North, who had never
bowed under the yoke of servitude, should be
equally favored. To consummate the work
of the war, therefore, the fifteenth amend
ment was proposed by Congress, and, despite
the factious opposition of the Democratic
party of the North, it has become a part of
the fundamental law of the land.
The incorporation of this vital principle in
the Constitution of the United States is an
event which deserves notable recognition at
the hands of these whom it affects most
deeply, and the colored citizens of Philadel
phia are celebrating it in a manner which is
both fitting and impressive. As we write, the
preparations for their grand demonstration
are being perfected on a scale that promises
to Tender it an occasion that will long be re
membered, and in a manner that evinces no
disposition to disorder or unseemly vaunting.
This day in a great day for the colored people
A veritable day of jubilee and all good
and law-abiding citizens will look upon their
demonstrations of rejoicing without any dis
positi on to envy or molest them.
THE OPENING OF THE MERCAN
TILE LIBRARY ON SUNDAY.
Since the 4th of the present month the stock
holders of the Mercantile Library have been
voting upon the question whether the reading
rooms shall bo opened on Sundays or not.
On Saturday the polls closed and last evening
the counting of tho votes was completed.
The total number of votes polled waa It.'tOC;
of wLich 1SI50 were in favor of opening the
library on Sunday and H7C against it, leaving
a majority of 155-1 in favor. Such an em
phatic expression of opinion as this is as
gratifying as it was unexpected, and the
Directors can now offor no excuse whatever
for declining any longer to make this grout
improvement in the management
of the library. The influences at
work against the proposition to
open tho library on Sunday were so many
and so great that it would not have been a
matter for surprise if it had been defeated.
Tho question was one in which it is safe t j
say that a large majority of tho stockholders
Lad no personal interest, and it would be
among the large and influential class of per
sons who are never at a los3 how to spen I
their Sundays in a profitable manner that
the most determined opposition wax to be
expected. 'Many persons would object
to the opening of the reading-rooms of such
an institution as the Mercantile Library,
under a vague impression that in some way
it would be a violation of the Sabbath, or that
it might possibly lead to abuses that would
finally bring the Sabbath into disrospect.
Very few could give any intelligent reasons
for their objections, but the very fact that no
intelligent reasons could be given would hive
the effect of making the opposition more ob
stinate and decided. It is creditable to the
liberality and good judgment of the majority
of the stockholders of the Mercantile Library
that so many of them were found willing to
try this experiment, and to confer a great and
lasting benefit on a large class of young per
sons whe greatly need upon Sunday, of ull
the days in the week, to be surrounded by
elevating influences, to bo f urnishod with the
means of moral and mental improvement,
and to be encouraged to spend the day in a
quiet and reputable manner.
The opening of the reading-rooms of the
Mercantile Library on the first day of the
week we look upon as a most important move
ment in the cause of religion and morality,
and we hope that the Bunoess of the experi
ment now to bo tried will be so deoided that
good men of all shades of rdigious belief will
unite in seeking to provide the non-ohurch-going
classes with facilities for spending the
Sabbath in a manner that will be at once at
tractive and beneficial. Some of the advo
cates of the Sunday opening have charged
that the directors are determined to oppose
them under all circumstances. We profer
not to believe that this is tho oase, and we
hope that aftor the deoisivo vote of the stock
holders that the matter will be considered as
definitely settled without further controversy.
Tho director have asked for an expression of
opinion from their constituents, and now that
they know the winhes of the stockholders
tbero is no exctise for further delay or opposition.
MORE NAPOLEONIC LOGIC.
Titf. proclamation of the Emperor has been
promptly followed by the munifesto of tho
ministry, which we published yesterday. Tho
latter document bretithes a spirit akin to that
of the former, and both alike appeal to the
people for an affirmative vote on the plcbimsit?
for tho sake of one prime object. Says the
Emperor, "Give me a new proof of confi
dence in bringing to the ballot-box an affir
mative vote, and you will render easier
in tho future the transmission of the crown
to my son;" and the obedient ministors echo
his appeal, "to the end that on the throne, as
in the humblest dwelling, the son may suc
ceed the father in peace and quiet." But the
ministerial manifesto makes an important ad
mission, which is of marked significance. It
aks:
"Can tliey (the revolutionary party l ignore the
fact that to abstain from Voting or to vote 'no' will
be to strengthen those who only combat the trans
formation of the empire In order that they may de
stroy it, and with it the political aud social organi
zation to which France owes her greatness?"
Here the Emperor, speaking through the
ministry, frankly acknowledges that the re
fusal of 'the people to "approve the liberal
reforms which have been effeoted in the con
stitution since 18G0 by the Emperor," and to
"ratify the Sena tun Consultum of April 20,
1870," whether this refusal be manifested by
a negative vote or by a silent protest, will be
an open condemnation of the imperial regime,
a direct defiance of the imperial power. To
still further strengthen their appeal, the min
isters assert that the Emperor "does not sur
render the empire to disoussion; he submits
to a vote only its liberal transformation." If
the people choose liberty and order under the
empire, well and good for the sake of the
peaceful transmission of the crown to his son,
he is willing that they should so choose. But
if they do not seleot this Bide of
the question, they are declared to be revolu
tionary in spirit, enemies of peace and order,
and as false to the principle and practice of
liberty as they are unfriendly to the imperial
regime. The invention of this one-horned
dilemma is worthy the genius of Napoleon.
He has driven the whole French people to
the wall, and given them the choice between
absolute obedience and outlawry. Doubtless
he and his ministers are fully confident of a
favorable result, fully persuaded that only
those who are already proclaimed as "irreoon
cilables" will elect to vote "no" on the plebin
cite, or abstain from voting altogether. The
ministry and their imperial master being
thus confident of an affirmative response, the
words of M. Ollivier
"When I hear you maintain, as an Invincible
thesis, thxt universal suffrage carries with it the
destruction or a monarchical government, 1 say
experience pronounces agalnnt you"
are clothed with even stronger significance
than they possess intrinsically, and the vot
ing upon the plebiscite resolves itself into an
empty and ridiculous farce. But neither
Emperor nor ministry should forget that in
the appeals made by both, great stress is laid
upon the eight millions of votes by which the
Bonaparte throne was set up a second time.
The day may yet come when, by an equally
unanimous vote, that same throne will be
toppled over. Napoleon evidently realises
the possibility of such a revulsion in popular
sentiment, and rightly fears that his death
may prove the signal for its practical expres
sion. His anxiety to strengthen the chancos
of the Prince Imperial is quite
natural, and the feeling which- prompts it
is as pardonable in his case as it is in that
of the humblest parent in the lund. Jmt at
present the lovers of liberty and order
throughout the civilized world are arrayed
on his side, for the empire, as he claims in
his proclamation of Sunday, "has procured
for France eighteen years of calm and pro.
perity, which have not been without glory,"
and which the Republic that preceded the
Empire gave but little promise of securing.
The crimes which in the past have been
perpetrated in France in tho name of liberty
Lave done much to alienate the sympathy of
the liberal people of all other nations, and
to cuuse them to regard order without liberty
as better than liberty without order. But
when the Republic again rises from the ruins
of the Empire, it is possible that by that
time her devotees may prove sufficiently
schooled by adversity to avoid excess, and to
give to France both liberty and order without
the empire.
SYMPATHY FOR CAPTAIN EYRE.
A caisi.k telegram states that Captain Eyre,
of tho steamer Bombay, is in the British
metropolis for the purpose of having the mild
sentence awarded by the court which in
quired into bis atrocious conduct set aside,
and that "much sympathy is shown him" in
London. The only punishment inflicted for
Lis heinous offence is a temporary suspension
from employment; and yet this brutal monster,
hose heartless conduct was the. immediate
cause of the death of every person lost in tho
ill-fated Oneida, attracts sympathy ! What do
our kind British cousins want? Are they
anxious that he should be instantly authorized
to run a new muck against American sea
men, and destroy more American vessels?
On bo other theory can their sympathy with
such a cowardly and heartless murderer be
explained. Lacking the courago to hoist a
Uack fln, and to dare a pirate's fate,
this cold-blooded scoundrel displayed a degree
of cruelty fiom which the most reckless
scourges of the Spanish main would have
recoiled, and yet we are gravely told that
"much pympathv is shown for him !" An in
genious writer Las demonstrated that the
most bloody and brutal being in the world,
not even excepting the worst savages, is a
debased and thoroughly brutalized English
man, and Captain Eyre personifies in perfec
tion this horrible character. If he had fifty
lives and were hung at the yard-arm fifty
times, only a poor and partial atonement
would be made for his fearful crime; and the
sympathy expressed in his behalf is as dis
creditable to those who evince it as it is in
sulting to the American people.
THE SOUTHERN WAR CLAIMS.
A resolution was offered in the House of
Representatives yesterday declaring thitt "the
lienor and good faith of the Government are
bound to the paymont of loyal citizens of the
South for property of every description taken
from them for the use of the Government."
The House refused to second the demand for
the previous question on this motion the
vote being ('.) to 00 and there does not seem
to be any immediate danger that the immense
batch of claimsjeovered by the resolution will
command the approval of Congress. It be
hooves the people, however, to carefully
watch the action of their representatives on
this proposition, for the greatest financial
danger that now threatens this nation arises
from this source. If the door is
once fairly opened to (the
clamorous Southern loyalists, taxpayers will
be most unmercifully oppressed by these in
satiable leeches, and national bankruptcy can
only be avoided by a series of extortions un
heard of in financial annals. There is a class
of men in the South who, without being able
to render any useful service to the Govern
ment while the war lasted, have resolved to
make desperate efforts to convert their pre
tended loyalty into a pretext for individual
enrichment, and they will never cease urging
their demands for appropriations while the
slightest ground remains for a hope that Con
gress can be cajoled or bribed into an ac
knowledgment of their claims. Hence tax
payers can only find safety by a stern and
unyielding opposition to these demands, and
by opposing the re-election of every member
of Congress and Senator who assists the
efforts of the Southern spoliators to plunder
the national treasury.
The Mabathon bandits, when they found
themselves likely to be surrounded by an
armed force, murdered the prisoners in their
Lands in cold blood. This piece of atrocity
will send a thrill of horror throughout the
Whole civilized world, and it will awaken the
serious inquiry whether something cannot be
done to put a stop to the whole brigand busi
ness in such countries as Italy and Greece.
The British Government proposes to urge
upon the authorities at Athens the necessity
for prompt aotion in the matter, but the ex
perience of the past indicates that any aotion
the Greek Government may take will amount
to very little in the way of putting a stop to
such outrages. It has been the custom to
treat the Governments of Italy and Greece as
if they were entitled to all the international
courtesies of .the great nations, but in point of
fact the people they represent are for the
most part far more barbarous than the Chi
nese, towards whom nothing but a policy of
force was supposed to be of any avail. The
Italian and Greek bandits have a cordial con
tempt for the representatives of the law, and
the Government of neither country has ever
been able to take any efficient steps for their
suppression. The question, therefore, is
whether the great powers whose citizens are
slaughtered as these Engishmen were would
not be justified in taking the law into their
own bands, and in sending a force that would
be sufficient to hunt down and exterminate
the whole race of brigands. The difficulties
in the way of such a solution as this of the
bandit problem of course are many, and may
be insuperable, but it would be a matter for
congratulation if it could be tried.
The next new State likely to apply for
admission into the American Union is to re
joice in the euphonious title of Oklushumma,
and to consist of the Choctaw portion of
the Indian Territory. This proposition is
made in sober earnest by the principal chief
of the Choctaw tribe, and as a preliminary
step, a vote is to bo taken on the 4th of July
next, on a proposition to divide the land so
that it may be held in severalty instead of
being held by the whole tribe in common, as
heretofore. This is the most important
attempt at Indian progress ever made on this
continent, and the result will be awaited with
no little interest by those who are concerned
in the welfare of the aborigines.
