NEW PACIFIC CABLE PItOJEOT.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
yesterday reported favorably upon Cyrus W.
Field's bill to lay a Facifio cable, which con
tains the extraordinary provision that the
Government of the United States shall not
only detail vessels to make surveys and sound
ings and render other assistance to the work,
but that it shall contribute five hundred
thousand dollars per annum for twenty years
to a proposed new cable company, receiving
nothing in exchange for this appropriation
but the privilege of transmitting free Govern
xnent messages, provided they do not exceed
in value the $500,000 of subsidy ! A number
of wealthy men, nearly all of whom are citi
zens ot New York, are named as the corpo
rators of this company. These gentlemen,
with such associates as they may select, will
be the owners of the proposed cable, if it is
ever constructed. The cost of the whole un
dertaking will scarcely amount to one-half
the sum they modestly ask from the Govern
ment; and if the line proves to be sufficiently
nseful to private interests to obtain from
them sufficient revenue to defray its current
expenditure, the stockholders would find
themselves, at the end of twenty years, in
the enviable position of having received from
an admiring nation not only th6 cable free of
expense, but a sum equal to its cost, in addi
tion, bestowed as a bonus for the privilege
of making this magnificent present ! If the
country is likely to require $500,000 per
annum of cable telegraphy on the
Pacific, it had far better build the
line outright, and own and control
it, than adopt this proposed scheme for en
riching the few at the expense of the many.
Ocean telegraphs are proper objects of such
incidental national aid as can be rendered by
official negotiations or by Government ves
sels which are not otherwise employed, but
$500,000 per annum can be a thousand times
more profitably employed by Congress in
purchasing or building telegraphic lines within
the country than in bestowing proprietary
righto in the Pacific Ocean upon a few
favorites. If Cyrus "W. Field's new cable bill
receives the sanction of the national authori
ties, in its present shape, the Senate and
Ilouse of Representatives should next
vote away the Capitol and the
publio grounds in Washington to a private
corporation, on a pretext that it could man
age them more judiciously than the pre
sent owners, and then agree to give a large
annual rent for the future use of what is now
national property. In the infancy of ocean
telegraphy, when the risks t be encountered
were infinitely greater than at present, and
when many difficulties remained to be mas
tered, Mr. Field might have asked with much
better grace than at present for Government
aid. The nation helped, not unwisely, to
establish the first practicable land telegraph,
and there would have been no great impro
priety in assisting, by a small direot appropria
tion, the first efforts to lay a cable across
the Atlantic But capitalists can now calcu
late the cost and the chances of profit in
these enterprises, and governing their aotions
by the great controlling motive of modern
times, they will cable the Pacific as soon as
1 they are satisfied that it will prove sufficiently
useful to '.'pay." Tax-payers will infinitely
prefer that those who hold the purse-strings
will wait for this propitious moment, instead
of imposing on them an unnecessary new
burden.
THE PEE SB TTERIAN8 AND THE
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Yestebday the Presbyterian Assembly adopted
a series of resolutions in support of the free
public-school system that were even more em
phatio than the declaration of the Episcopal
Convention a few weeks ago on the same
subject. In the opinion ef the Assembly, as
expressed in these resolutions, the free publio
school is an essential part of our republican
system, is oonduoive in the highest degree to
the moral unity, common spirit, and kindly
sympathies of American citizenship, and is
closely connected with all the interests
of Christian society in the United
States. The Assembly ' consider that
the divorce of popular education from
all religious elements would be unwise,
unjust, and a moral calamity to the nation,
and they would regard the expulsion of the
Bible from the schools of the people as a de
plorable and suioidal aot, from which no real
advantage could be gained to the cause of
popular education. The Assembly finally
profess their readiness to co-operate with all
Christian people of whatever name, and with
all good citizens, in so modifying and per
fecting our noble public-school system aa to
obviate as far as practicable the oonscientioaa
scruples and difficulties of its friends.
This is certainly the proper ground
to take, and it is gratifying to see
the representatives of such an intelligent,
influential, and wealthy denomination as the
Presbyterians declaring thus emphatically in
favor of our school system, and guaranteeing
it their support. The principal, in fact almost
the only, opposition to the free sys
tern of education nas come irom a
single religious sect, which objected
in the first place to the reading of the
Bible, but which will now be contented with
nothing but the total overthrow of the publio
schools and the division of the funds among
the various religious denominations. In view
of this attitude of the Catholio Church, it is
more than ever necessary that the friends of
the public school system of all shades of belief
should unite for its perpetuation, and while,
as the resolutions adopted by the Presbyte
rian Assembly suggest, means should be
devised to obviate as far as praotioable the
conscientious scruples of all persons, the in
tegrity of the present means of publio educa
tion should be insisted upon with all the
firmness that the vast importance of the
subject demands.
FREDERICK DOUGLASS VS. BETHEL
CJWRCJI.
Frederick Douglass was reoently denounoed
in very severe terms at a meeting held at the
Sixth street Bethel colored churoh in this
city for certain opinions expressed by him in
a speech at Horticultural Hall, on the occa
sion of the fifteenth amendment celebration.
The speech of Mr. Douglass, as we remember
it, contained nothing that could reasonably be
objected to on religious grounds, and the
action of the meeting in censuring him was
entirely uncalled for. Mr. Douglass very
rightly objects to having an ex parte judg
ment pronounced against him, and in the
letter which we published yesterday he ex
pressed his opinion of the performances of
the Bethel brethren in a style more lively
than pleasant. Frederick Douglass is a logi
cal reasoner, which, unfortunately for them
selves, his opponents are not, and he relates
for their edification some unpleasant truths
which are particularly unpleasant because
they are true. His offense consisted in
declining to esteem the emancipation of
his race as a special miracle, but rather as I
resulting from the operation of natural
causes inherent in the very constitaion
of human nature. This i3 certainly the
view that any but a religious f anatio will take
of the matter, and Mr. Douglass utters a
bitter truth when he asserts that so far from
slavery having been specially abolished by
the Almighty in answer to the prayers of the
American Church and pulpit, the influence of
the Church from the birth of the nation to
the hour of emancipation, and even to the
present day, was almost wholly on the side of
slavery, and that to the influence of the
Church more than to any other cause was due
the perpetuation of slavery through so many
long and weary years. Every man, woman,
and child in the United States knows that
this is so, and as the churches were the main
support of slavery so also they are the last to
acknowledge the justice of its abolition. As
a proof of this we refer to the action of tho
Southern Methodists, Baptists, and Presby
terians, who refuse to renew their fraternal
relations with tho Northern branches of
their respective denominations, and who
are endeavoring to keep alive the bitterness
and hate engendered by the anti-slavery agi-.
tation and by the war which resulted in the
downfall of the slave system. Mr. Douglass
explains the purport of his speech when he
says, "I spoke only as a reformer, under
standing the wisdom of adapting means to
ends, and believing if this sin-cursed earth is
ever to be made better, it is to be made so
by faithful exertion and by the wise applica
tion of human energies. Moral not less
than physical evils are under the control of
man. When anything has got to be done in
the world, some denizen of the world has got
to do it, or it will remain undone. The
American people violated the laws of justice,
love, and liberty, and in due time that law,
written in the human soul, vindicated itself
through war, blood, and pestilence." We
can see nothing in this that opposes the
popular religious idea of an overruling Provi
dence that directs the affairs of men for the
attainment of all-wise ends.
The attack on Mr. Douglass was uncalled
for, and his letter is a very sufficient answer
to all the oharges brought against him. In
addition to defending himself, however, he
gives a piece of advice to his persecutors that
is well worthy of their attention, when he
says that instead of getting up church meet
ings to try distant heretics like himself, they
should honestly go to work and endeavor to
reform the character, manners, and habita of
the festering thousands of colored people who
live in the utmost misery and destitution in
the immediate vicinity of Bethel Church.
The official term of David A. Wells,
Special Commissioner of Revenue, being
about to expire, an earnest hope is expressed
in various quarters that the President will
not reappoint him. lie has exerted so much
ingenuity in advocating the interests of
foreign countries, and has labored so zealously
to depress American industry, that he richly
deserves the generous support of British
manufacturers and the best statistical position
that the British Government can give. As an
employe of the Republican administration in
the United States, however, he is totally out
of place. By garbling and suppressing sta
tistics of vital moment, he has given a color
ing of plausibility to free-trade theories, which
the'facts in his keeping, if fairly presented,
would totally destroy. His theories of finance
and tariffs have furnished to the Demooratio
party more serviceable weapons of partisan
strife than all their avowed speakers and
writers on such subjects; and he has done
infinitely more than any other man in the
country, to foment and widen the breaoh
among the Republicans on the doctrine of
protection. Unfaithful to his trust in an
official and patriotic as well as in a partisan
sense; unreliable in his theories and in his
arrays of alleged facts; and wedded to doc
trines fraught with danger to the country, it
would be a thousand times better to have no
Special Commsssioner of Revenue than to
continue Mr. Wells in that office. His reap
pointment would be an insult to the friends
of American industry, while it would cause
great rejoicings in the camp of the free
traders and among the leaders of the
Democracy.
