Editorial Opinions of the Leading Journals upon Current Topics Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph. THE COLORED RACE IN POLITICS. From the If. l Time. The affair of the young colored cadets at "Weht Point is important, because it shows a want of judgment ia the leaders of the colored race. There is, as we all know, ex isting through great numbers of persons in this country a profound prejudice against the negroes, and a belief that they have neither character nor talent sufficient for the new political position conferred on them through the agency of the Republican party. It need not be said that the Times has always main tained that the blacks in this country have abilities enough to perform their political da ties quite as intelligently as great masses of our white voters, and that education and a free field will in time call out men from among them of very considerable powers. Furthermore, we, in common with thousands at the North, have admired the self-control and obedience to law, and the absence of re vengeful feelings among' this race, when at taining to a political equality with their for mer masters. So far as wo have been able to judge, the colored men who have generally been pat forward in political life were men of good eense and character, and in the national offices men of decided talent. The only ex ception which has been marked was in re gard to some of the colored delegates in the South Carolina Assembly. But even the ignorance of these latter may have been exaggerated, and in a State where so few whites are in amicable relations with the blacks, and they themselves have been so depressed, it was not natural to expect either many white representatives, or many highly intelligent black representa tives, of the colored population. Still, though thus far the course of the leaders of the emancipated race has been judicious, they must remember that they are yet, as a people, en trial before public opinion. They must put their best men to the front. ALL their leaders and representatives should be carefully chosen. They had better take good and trustworthy white delegates than poor black ones. They should rather send no scholars to a national school, than indifferent ones. In the case of the two colored cadets, it would appear that no unfairness or prejudice was shown toward them. On the contrary, they were better treated by the other cadets as new comers than white boys are. No hos tility of race was manifested, as indeed it would be a lasting disgrace to a national military school, if any were; but, unfortu nately, one of the lads was badly qualified (as happens to many white youths), and the other, though sufficiently prepared intellec tually, was unsuited physically to the severe training of the school, and both were very properly rejected. No blame for this, of course, rests on the authorities of the Acade my; and none should rest on the colored race. Still it would have been wiser in Messrs. Perce and Hoge, of Mississippi and South Carolina, in the first prominent test of the physical and mental abilities of negro youths, to have presented the very best whom the race could offer. We trust that others, ; thoroughly well trained in mind and with healthy physique, will be presented and passed, bo that the race which did such good service for the Union in the war may be represented in its highest military school. It is just, too, that our corps of national officers should include some trom a population of four millions, now hrst made freemen. We need not say that to the Republican , party it will be the logical sequence of their position, as it will be their good fortune, to support all just claims of the colored race Their efforts have primarily been the means of breaking their chains; through them they Lave received the inestimable privilege of suffrage, and now their votes will naturally fall on the Republican side. Without any demagogue influence, tne party now in power. if they conduct themselves wisely, will re ceive, as a natural thing, the important colored vote of the country. We have never been of those who believed that the Demo crats, whether at the South or North, what ever repentance or new emotions of philano tnropy tbey might exhibit, could by any pos .sibihty win any large portion of the votes of the blacks. With a lower population, whether white or Jblack, tradition in politics and history has an . overwhelming force. No black man could possibly vote long with the party whose mem bers had mobbed him in the North, and en slaved him or defended his enslavement in the South. 'Whatever the new Democratio 'frieuds of the negro" might promise, he could not but always remember that the party which had tried to mitigate his wrongs in slaverv. which had stmesled to Drevent that as w ot j- curse being carried to new Territories, which had finally, at fearful cost, broken his fetters. .and at length made him an American citizen, was the Republican party. Inevitably, he and his children would tall in with that politi cal division. The colored vote must for many years to come be Republican. And a very important vote it has become. It will control, probably, six States of the South; it will, without doubt, determine the next I'residen tial election. It can now decide the State elections in New Jersey and Connecticut ; it may be the last Btraud of the cable which will hold our Republican ship in New York State to its moorings. It is of consequence in rennsjivania, Maryland, and Delaware, In the future close balancings of parties in the Northern States, the votes of the blacks -will become a power which either party will le glad to win. We expect to see plenty of ueuiociauo incus xo gain it over, it is ours. however, now ; and ours it will continue to be if the party conduct itself with fairness and good eise toward the colored race. Rut their own leaders must also show "the wis dom of the serpent," and remember that it will not do to present as their representatives, whether in politics or academies, any but their best men. Time will mature talent and the highest character among them, and they should be in no haste to offer to the publio unripe nuits. THE NATURALIZATION BILL. from the X. Y. I'libuiie. The fear which we expressed for the fate of .the Naturalization bill has been very nearly realized. It has been rescued from utter failure, but only the form with little force re mains to it. The diverse and sectional inte rests which opposed the original bill and would have smothered it in the House had it been put on its passage have consented to a substitute which will have little strength in practice, though it may be well onougu in liurnose. "The fiif-t section," as the Congressional pynopfcis of the bill reported, "makes ful ;e swearing ju;uisiittile as lorg-.-iy. Lufortu rately, that is about all it does do, none of the much-needed legislation to enforce the law being provided, lhe punishment, u is true, is fixed at a fine of such dimensions and imprisonment of such severity that it ought to deter leasonaoie rascals, but mew xotk. repeaters" acd New York judges would lauch at the provisions as at idle throats which they regard not. The second and third sections pronounce equally severe penalties for the false personation of persons by appli cants for naturalization pnpers or oy mose who vouch for them, and for the forgery or fraudulent use of certificates of naturaliza tion; but they are merely definitions of crime, and will have no binding force on the profes sional politicians of this and other cities where naturalization frauds are frequent. The last clause, however, is the most dis appointing of all. Instead of reserving the sole right to issue certificates of national citi zenship to the United States courts, as we be lieve could have been done without endanger ing the bill, every petty State and municipal court in the country remains authorized, as formerly, to constitute itself a machine for any villainous party, and manufacture citi zens at a moment's notice. There is not even a restriction on the time at which a natural ized citizen may vole after receiving his cer tificate, a clause of the original bill which we are confident might have been retained, not withstanding the timidity of members who feared to o fiend the more ignorant out of a few hundred or a few thousand foreign born citizens in their districts. To doubt that the vast majority of our naturalized citizens would have recognized the justice of suoh a restriction is a greater insult than to have en forced a restriction which the wisest of them recognize as necessary, and few, except the rascals, grumble at. e hope the Senate, to whom the bill now goes, will remedy these two grave detects. The United States Courts should have the Bole right to decide upon the claims to United States citizenship, as well as the punishment of all violations of its established laws for creating citizens. The right to vote imoie diately on being declared a citizen ought to be annulled, and a reasonable restriction of time substituted. To be sure, such amend ments mav kill the bill. Let them. It is of trifling value in its present form, and if it cannot bear to be made of some force, it may as well be dropped. A MESSAGE ON CUBA. From the A'. Y. World. President Grant is as uncomfortable as a fish out of water. Monday afternoon, soon after his return from his trout excursion in Pennsylvania with Simon Cameron, he sent to Congress an ill-written message on Cuba, in which he disclosed his unhappy dread of the forthcoming report of General Banks on our relations to the civil war in that island, The main positions of the report have leaked out within the last day or two, and General Grant justly regards it as a censure of his policy. The report is understood to recom mend a recognition of belligerency between the Cubans and Spain, and the President dares not to let it go before the country with out an antidote to save the little remnant of his lost popularity. He is very emphatic aoainst recognition, and in defense of his own position which the report of the commit tee is expected to assail. His attempt to ward off the coming blow shows how damaging he fears it will be. When the message had been read in the House, General Banks, against whom it was directed, rose in his place and moved that it be laid on the table and printed. Bnt Mr. Jndd, a friend of the President, who did not wish the message stifled in that manner, moved that it be referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. General Banks opposed this motion, saying that the Committee on Foreign Affairs had fully considered the sub ject, and that their report would be presented for the consideration of the House. This was Baying, in effect, that the message would have no weight with the com mittee, and that they would not reconsider or revise their conclusions in consequence of anything the President had said. This was contemptuous enough, and implied a rebuke of General Grant for his impertinence. But it was veiled in guarded language calcu lated to conceal from the country the con tempt of the message which was implied and intended by the speaker. At this point, Mr. Cox, whose quick perceptions of General Banks' drift, and desire to clear it of parlia mentary ambiguity, served a useful purpose, expressed in plain language what Banks had only ventured to insinuate. Mr. Cox thus precipitated a dramatic situation more amus- T l . , , A i I - C i 1 tt lug lo me uemocrauG iuemuers 01 tua uouse than delightful to any section of the Repub licans. Sir. Cox made it apparent that the President's message was an attack on the committee and an indecorous interference with its functions, and by placing the an tagonism in a . strong light, he compelled General Banks to retreat from his first motion and accept a reference of the message to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. But this was a hollow and extorted cour tesy. General Banks had already said, in substance, that the message would have no influence with the committee; that it would neither delay their report nor modify their conclusions. If he stands firm in this resolu tion, the reference is a mere idle civility yielded to avoid the appearance of treating the President with disrespect, lhe conjunc ture which thus brings the President at log gerheads with the House Committee on Foreign Relations, is one of awkward embar rassment to the Republican party. The sensi tiveness of General Grant shows how morti fying it will be to him to have his Cuban policy arraigned and censured before the country in the forthcoming report. If the committee should quail and retreat, or modify their report and speak with bated breath, the Republican party will be com mitted to the views of General Grant, and the 6trong popular sympathy with the Cubans will be turned against the administration in the elections of this . summer and autumn. If both sides stand their ground, there will be an unseemly wrangle in the House over the report, resulting in a schism even more damaging to the Republicans than a united support of the policy of the President. If the Cubans should gain any ad vantages during the summer, the strengthening enthusiasm for their cause will react against the admin istration. If, on the other hand, they should be Bubdued and crushed, the administration will be arraigned before the people and held responsible tor their defeat, in either case, the llepublican party will sutler. Whatever may be the real merits of the ouestion. it cannot be doubted that General Grant has been hurried into an indecorum by his weak and feverish dread of Bauks' report. His own dignity and a decent respect for Conirress should have withheld hun from Bending a message which is so obviously aimed against a document whicu he has no right to criticize, and least of all in advance of its submission to the body whose province it is to debate and act upon it. Ii Congress pasties a bill frr a resolution prescribing a different rolicv from that which he hai i ir- " - eued, it will have to be submitted to him for his approval, and bin defense of bis policy would be placed before the country with f reater dignity and effect in a veto message, f no such bill or resolution should be passed, he will remain as free as he is now to act on his own judgment. Nothing but a conscious ness that he is weak with the people could have hurried him into the indiscretion of at tempting to refute the report .of a Congres- sional committee whose substance he knows only by hearsay. It is not for him, bnt for the House, to supervise the action of its committees; and even the House does not go behind a committee and criticize a report before it is presented. THE RIGIITS OF NATURALIZED ABROAD. CITI- ZENS From the A". F. Bun. On the 13th of April lost, a treaty was ne gotiated at London between Mr. Motley, the Ambassador of the United States, and Earl Clarendon, the British Secretary for Foreign Affairp, by which Great Britain relinquishes forever tLe old British doctrine of citizen ship, and recognizes fully the right of any British subject to abandon allegiance to the British crown, and become a full citizen of this republic. This treaty is now before the Senate for consideration; and as it only declares a prin ciple for which the United States have always contended, and takes away all occasion for future controversy, it will undoubtedly be ratified. We trust, however, that its ratifica tion will not be made a pretext for the abandonment by our Government of the claims of naturalized citizens, based upon violations of their rights which have already been committed Take, for instance, the very case to which the negotiation of the proposed treaty is owing. On the first day of June, 18(!7, John Warren, an Irishman and a British subject by birth, who in 185G was naturalized as a citi zen of the United States, landed in Ireland, and immediately after landing was arrested and thrown into prison by the British Gov ernment. After a lapse of ten days he was indicted and committed for trial for construc tive treason as a conspirator, for words spoken in New York, and for an overt act committed in Ireland by other parties, three months before his ai rival. He demanded, as an alien, to be tried by a jury half of Aine rican citizens and half of British subjects; but this demand was denied by the court, on the express ground that he was not an alien, but a British subject,, on the old prin ciple that he who is once under the allegi ance of English sovereigns remains so for ever. ' By the application of the same prin ciple be was convicted of the offense for which he was indicted, although it was ad mitted that he had personally committed no overt act on British soil; and he was sen tenced to fifteen years' penal servitude. A portion of this sentence, with all its degra dation and hardships, he actually suffered, But finally, on the 4th of March, 180!), he was, with fifty other convicts, pardoned, still as a British subject, and permitted to return to this country. He has laid his claim for damages before Congress, and his memorial is now in the hands of the Senate Commit tee on Foreign Relations. Meanwhile, from the agitation of the question which his case has occasioned, has sprung the treaty now be fore the Senate; so that he has, at all events, the satisfaction of knowing that by his agency Great Britain has been brought to a formal admission of the rights of naturalized Ameri can citizens, which was not extorted by the war of 1812, although that war was fought respecting that very question. lhe remarkable fact, however, is that Mr. Warren should have been compelled to peti tion Congress at all for redress. One would have thought that as soon as the news arrived of his arrest and imprisonment, his libera tion would have been demanded by the Presi dent, and the demand enforced by all the power of the nation. Mr. Johnson, however, always had a morbid hatred of remanism, and that a man was even accused of it was enough to condemn him in his eyes. Bat now that we live under a different administration, which has made some promises, we are still waiting to see whether there is to be any change of policy in this respect. But at any rate, if the senate does not insist upon com pensation being made to Mr. Warren before it ratifies the Motley-Clarendon treaty, it will show less regard for the honor of the nation than we have a right to expect from it. SPAIN PRIM ON THE SITUATION. Frvm ito S. 1'. Herald. Since Monday of last week the Spanish Cortes have been formally occupied in dis cussion relative to the future occupancy of the throne. It does not appear that the dis cussions have resulted in any satisfactory settlement. lhe sta'ement of Prim, made in the Cortes on Saturday, that the Govern ment had sought a candidate for the throne, but thus far in vain, clearly shows that the throne question is as much a perplexity to day as it has been any time these last nine teen months. It is poor consolation to Spain, afflicted and exhausted as she is, to be told after all this weary waiting that there was reason to feel confident that candidate .would be found within the next three months. Prim assured them that he did not mean Alphonso, Prince of Asturias, son and heir of Isabella; nor did he expect that the anxiety which notoriously existed throughout the count iw would ripen into disorder. Ihan the condition In which fepain now finds herself we can conceive of nothing more humiliating. In September of 1808 bpain, so long so backward, so long dying by inches, startled the world by the suddenness and vigor of her action, and seemed by one bold effort, by one darinc leap, to recover her place among the nations. Men remembered the times of Ferdinand and Isabella, when Spanish arms were invincible wherever they were put to the test ; the times of Charles v. and of Phillip II., when the Spanish flag swept the seas and when the Spanish dominion encircled the globe; and they naturally enough leaped to the conclusion that the pride of Old Castile and the chivalry of Aragon, though long dormant, were not yet dead. The dethronement of Isabella was a new tri umph of the popular cause, a fresh hope, a resurrection; and on this Continent, as in Europe, the people and the friends of progress rejoiced. In the course of time the (Jortes nifct. and the new constitution which they framed, although in some respects dis appointing, was an advance in the right di rection. The throne was not demolished, as, perhaps, it should have been, but good hope was given that the successor of Isabella would be a man of the people's choice, and that it would be difficult for him to govern contrary to their wishes. There was to be no delay in filling the throne. Yet here we are to-day, some twenty months since the revolu tion, and the Spanish throne is still begging an occupant. Europe is crowded with princes, with idle scions of royalty in eager quest of such toys as crowns and thrones: Spain has gone upon her knees to many of them; yet no I rime but one, so far as we know, has been found willing to be a royal figurehead, and that one is obnoxiovs to the Spanish nation. This, however, is not all. The Spanish people are worn out with uncertainty and bamed hopes. The Spanish treasury is empty. Spanish bills will nowhere be discounted. Spanish trade is all but dead, bpanish colo nies are sick of their connection with the mo ther country. Spanish nobles who have been filling the posts of duty seek to be relieved, and the only Spaniard who has been deemed worthy of royal honors politely but firmly de clines them. In these ciroumstances it is that Prim tells the Spanish people that a king may be found in three months. Buckle did say hard things of Spain, but the worst things that Buckle ever said have been established by facts since Buckle's death. Was ever na tion in such wretched plight ? Was ever revo lution bo fruitless? Was ever a people so disappointed and disappointing? Twenty months of killing uncertainty, and no hope of deliverance ! Search the whole field of his tory and find such an example. ' We seek in vain. What is the cause of this failure ? We have answered the question often before. We an swer it again. We might put our answer in two words, and Bay "Spanish impotence.'" This is the true answer. It is necessary, how ever, to be more particular. The resurrec tion of Spain has been found impossible bo cause the people are held down by the Church and by the army, and because men are want ing to head the people in attempting to break those bands asunder and to cast away those cords. The Church will not aoccpt the new constitution, and three-fourths of Spain at least Bwear by the Church. The army of Spain is a blind machine, but it is strong enough to make peasants and unarmed citi zens tremble. And during all those months no man has come to the surface prominently but one, and Prim seems to"be without that force of character, wanting in that kind of nerve, which makes revolutions lastingly tri umphant. A Ctesar, a Cromwell, a Napoleon would lead Spain into new paths, would arouse her ancient spirit and give her a new lease of life.1 But no Ciesar, no Cromwell, no Napoleon comes to the rescue. Prim is the only man who has had the opportunity, but his courage has not mounted with the occasion. Until the Spanish Chnrch is broken down and the people enjoy intellectual and spiritual liberty, and until the Spanish army changes its character and ceases to be a blind, unreasoning machine, we have little hope of Spanish resurrection. If there is any hope at all it lies in the pnssibility of the appearance of some patriot and hero who shall have the pluck to dare and the genius to lead. If some such man does not now appear it vi ill not surprise us to learn that he who now commands the army and who has failed to be the Cromwell has actually become the Monk of the Spanish revolution. This will be lamentable, but anything is preferable to the present state of things. Unless you give him the power you cannot blame the bed ridden man who will not rise and walk. Such is poor Spain.
