OUR HISTORIAN DIPLOMATIST.
From lb $. ', Sun.
The Hon. George Bancroft is onr preont
Minister at the Court of Berlin, and receives
a salary of $12,000 a year in gold for attend
ing to the official buniness, such as it is, of
the United States Avith the North German
Confederation.' That this business, however,
does not occupy all his time and attention,
but leaves him considerable leisure for pur
suing his favorite literary occupation, is
shown by a letter recently written by him to
the State Department, aad which has jast
been printed by order of the Senate.
It seems that some Sonator who knew and
appreciated the value of Mr. Bancroft's lucu
brations, and was determined that the nation
should not remain ignoraut of its debt to the
illustrious historian ambassador, procured the
passage of a resolution requesting the Presi
dent, "if in his opinion not inconsistent with
the pviblic interest, ' to communicate to the
Senate any recent correspondence of Mr.
Bancroft, the Minister of the United States in
Berlin, relating to political questions in Ger-,
many." The l'resident, on receiving this
request, referred it in due course to Secretary
Fibh, and he to his assistant, Mr. Bancroft
Davis, and the result has been the publi
cation of a letter upon what does the reader
suppose? upon "the internal political con
dition of the Transleithan part of the Aus
trian empire!" What an ambassador to
North Germany has to do with the affairs of
Austria, and what the Transleithan part of
that empire is to the United States, is not ex
plained; but there the letter is, fillling six
octavo pages of fine print, headed "American
Legation, Berlin, April is, 1870," and signed
at the end, in large capitals, "George Ban
croft.". A perusal of the document shows that it is
a very nice little treatise on the present con
dition and prospects of Hungary, writton in
Mr. Bancroft's usual philosophical style, and
admirably adapted to serve as the preliminary
penance by which the members of the New
York Historical Society earn, or used to earn,
once a month, the right to partake of choco
late and sandwiches. The following para
graph, taken from near the beginning, may
serve to give some idea of what it is like:
"Wltlitn three hours after the news of the Aus
trian defeat at Sadowa reached Huda-Pesth the
Magyar patriots formed their plan for the recon
struction of the empire upon a basis of political, per
sonal, and constitutional liberty. The system, which
had been thoroughly digested, and which Dealt, at
least, If no other, knew how to deduce from the
firagmatlc sanation of Charles VI, was an acknow
edgment of the dualism of the Austrian empire and
the equality of the two separate parts, with a con
stitutional concert ot action In general ail airs, ef
fected by a meeting of their respective delegates
uader the same Kmperor-King. The Hungarian
monarchy of St. Stephen was to raise Its head
through the Magyars on the one side, and what was
called the crown lands, or hereditary provinces,
which are seventeen In number, were to constitute
themselves as one organism under the lead of the
Germans ou the other. The two parts, from a little
stream which divides them, though for a few miles
only, took their names of Cisleltha, or the Austrian
hereditary provinces, and the Tiansleltha, or Hun
gary, the ancient kingdom, of St. Stephen. To give
you at a glance an exact idea of this division, I have
caused a map to be so colored as to represent vividly
to the eye the division of the old Austrian empire
Into Cisleltha and Transleitha, assigning the Slavonic
military boundary to Hungary, or Transleitha, and
Dalnialta, for the present at least, to Cisleltha. I
annex a second map, so colored as to exhibit the
great constituent elements of Transleitha on the
one side and the seventeen separate provinces of
Cisleltha on the other."
And so forth, and so on. We have a
eulogy of Deak, the Hungarian statesman; a
glowing description of the natural advantages
of the Hungarian territory, and of the city of
Buda-Pesth; a gloomy account of the rest of
Austria, to serva as a background to the
picture; and some excellent advice to the
Austrian politicians,' which no doubt they
will gladly receive,' and profit by. Our ac
complished Minister . at Vienna, . the Hon.
John Jay of Revolutionary descent, will also,
we are sure, feel obliged to Mr. Bancroft for
pointing oat to him how he too might exer
ise his otherwise useless talents; and we may
expect before long to hear a call in the
Senate for the publication, "if not incon
sistent with the publio interest," of a learned
dissertation by him upon Polish nationality
and antiquities, or some other equally re
condite subject.
Undoubtedly any of our eminent American
diplomatists had better be concocting little
essays like this upon Hungary, and getting
up colored maps, than remaining idle or
gambling at Baden-Baden or Homburg. But
we protest against the system that pays men
ihousands of dollars a year for such trifling.
18C0 1870.
From f he K. Y. Tribune.
Ten years ago the United States presented
to the world the spectacle of a republio in
which the fundamental principle of republi
canism was oniy nan acknowledged.. Une
section of the country was ruled by an aristo
cracy of the most odious kind, under which
individual liberty was almost unknown, and
men, women, and . children were bought and
sold, flogged, chained, branded, and bred for
the market like cattle; where the preacher was
not allowed to preach the sanctity of mar
riage, and it was a crime to teach the poor to
read. Freedom of speech under that tyrannous
regime was a pestilent heresy. The press was
muzzled more securely than the press of France.
Law or no law, a paper which taught in the
language of the Declaration of Independence
that "all men are born equal" could not be
sent through the mails. A man who read the
unbune must do so in peril of his life. A
citizen who believed that the despotism under
which he lived was cruel and shameful aud
hostile to the spirit of American institutions.
must hold his tongue, or faoe sooial ostracism
and bodily danger. Lven the courts were en
slaved and advocates silenced by the iron
tyranny which bound the South as absolutely
as Russia a century ago was bound to the
throne of the Czar. Under its blighting in
fluence manufactures were banished from
nearly half the Union; wasteful systems of
agriculture exhausted the land; and five or
six millions of people, white and black, were
kept in degrading ignorance and poverty that
a few lords of the soil might be supported in
precarious luxury.
Such was the condition of the slave States
Even the free States were free in name rather
than reality. It was slavery which for a loug
term of years had owned the federal Govern
went aud made laws for the whola nation.
The terrorism of slavery was felt even iu
Northern States, where to be the friend of
liberty was counted a reproach, and the slaver
was permitted to hunt his victims through
our streets and imprison them in our jails
America, which professed to be the home of
the ODDressed. was the paradise of the onnres-
sor. Of all great civilized nations the alone
made a tranio in human neah. bae was au
evil example to all the world, and a byword
in the lips of foreigners who, without the
sanctions of representative government and
written constitutions, enjoyed in many re
spects more genuine freedom than we did.
Only ten years ago, and what a change to
day 1 Slavery is gone like fc nightmare. The
four million r of freed people, entering upon
their new life without the reaction which
might have been anticipated after such sud
den liberation, are fast becoming useful and
reputable citizens. Commerce and domestic
industry are reviving. The scars of war are
already nearly obliterated. For the new
South a future of unexampled prosperity is
dawning, in which material improvements
are keeping pace with the growth of educa
tion and general intelligence. The degraded
lower class hich was ' the curse of the slave
States is disappearing. Free speech, a free
press, and equal rights are now the privileges
of all parts of the country alike. For the first
time in our history the States are really
united. For the first time we can really offer
ourselves to the world as an example
of free government, and encour
age the liberals of Europe with the
spectacle of our success. As a slaveholding
republic America had little power to promote
the progress of mankind; as a free country,
she has already given au impetus to liberty
everywhere. It seems only yesterday that we
nmsheu our war, but more brilliant results
have already followed our victory thau ten
years ago the most hopeful of us expected to
witness in a lifetime. The first eftect of the
destruction of the rebellion which threatened
our existence was the destruction of the
French empire, which threatened the nation
ality of . Mexico. The surrender of General
Lee involved the ignominious retirement of
Napoleon from his military occupation of a
neighboring republic, and with hW failure no
doubt ended the last attempt to establish a
monarchy on the North American continent.
In the domestic administration of France the
American victory has also had its results. It
was unquestionably ' in conse
quence of the impulse thus
given to liberalism that the Emperor found
it politic to relax the severity of
personal government, aud introduce some
lew reforms; and it is evident enough that,
in f-pite of the success of the plebiscitum
trick, still fuither concessions to the people
will soon be necessary. With Great Britain
our relations are more intimate than with auy
other European country, aud there the in
fluence of our revolution has been enormous.
It is hardly too much to say that in Great
Britain the moral effect of our triumph over
slavery swept away in half a dozen years the
accumulated abuses of centuries. The reform
of representation and extension of tho suf
frage, the overthrow of a tyrannical Church
establishment, the redress of the Irish laud
grievance great political achievements all of
them were hastened many years, perhaps
many generations, by the surrender of Gene
ral Lee at Appomattox, Lngland has not
rested, however, with these works. The
whole kingdom is astir with the spirit of
reform. The abolition of religious tests,
the extension of education, the esta
blishment of the ballot, the introduc
tion of a complete system of self-government
in the colonies, are the tasks now pressing for
accomplishment, and the present generation
may see a complete change iu the relative po
litical conditions of the two classes of Lug-
lish society. Finally, we have shamed Bra7.il
and Spain into doing euniething toward abo
lishing slavery in their possessions, so that
in a lew years more the last remnants of the
curse must be destroyed. This is a part
of what we have done during the decade just
closed. Ten years ago we were a reproach to
civilized nations; to-day we are the Liberal
leaders of the world. If any American
wants to go back to the old state of things
we shall not quarrel with him for being a fool;
for ourselves, we like the new glory better
than the ancient shame and trouble.
Yet in the face of this brilliant history the
survivors of the old despotic party which
kept us degraded so long, and came so near
destroying us forever in the Rebellion, take
advantage of the approaching anniversary
of independence to tell us that we have been
dreadfully in the wrong ever since 18M), and
beg us to return once more to the protection
of "men accustomed to govern." These are
the men who hounded Lincoln and Wads-
worth to their graves, who burned orphan
asylums, and hanged inoffensive negroes to
lamp-posts. These are the men who brought
upon us lour years of . terrible civil war,
quarrelled with all our devices for putting
an end to it, and now blame us for fighting.
In their survey of the decade there is no such
vision of progress as we have tried to paint;
they profess to see nothing but the exercise of
"arbitrary force, "unscrupulous men elevated
to place by the accident of war," "outrages
upon private rights," "invasions of personal
liberty. The old cry of "lianas on the uon
stitution!" ("as if that instrument were de
signed not to protect our liberties but to bind
us helpless while our liberties are destroyed;,
is raised by them to-day with as much per
sistency and as little meaning as it was all
through the war. They are still denouncing
the great struggle as a most unconstitutional
and unwarrantable proceeding, and still pre-
aiciing, as tney nave preuicieu ever since
1SC1, the speedy extinction of free govern
ment on this continent unless the reactionary
Democracy are restored to power, lhe re
suits of a few local elections and espe
cially the complete control they have now
secured of the gTeat vote factory in
New York have given them hope of
resurrection, and they purpose to rejoice
"There is a prospect of better things,'
they exclaim: "let us, then, celebrate this
year, the birthday of the United States, con
fident that there is at hand a restoration in
all its completeness of our good old Govern
ment, under which the people and the States
may aeain enjoy their rights. lhe Demo
cratio party has been making false prophecies
now pretty steadily for ten years, and in pro.
phesying its own resurrection it has certainly
made another. The "good old Government"
is gone forever, and the men who destroyed
it by their own folly and tried to destroy the
whole country with it, we never can trust
with power again. They may as well keep
the Fourth at Tammany this year as they
kept it in 18(10 cursing at the soldiers, and
denouncing the United States as a country
not nt te live in.
REVIVAL OF THE KNOW-NOTHING
ISSUE BY THE REPUBLICANS.
Fom the S. V. World.
On Saturday, the infamous bill designed to
obstruct naturalization and obstruct the use
of naturalization papers by citizens holding
them, was brought up by Senator Conkhng,
who has it in charge. He attempted to put
it on its passage, and as he hoped to bring it
to an immediate vote, he said that he would
not make a speech. . After remarks by the
radical Senator Drake, who confessed that it
was aimed at the Democratic party in New
York, the bill was vigorously assailed by
Senators Saulsbury, Vickers, aud Bayard, and
went over until next Saturday, when it is to
be finally disposed of.
Some of the old Know-Nothing leaders
on:oi"; tl em C'bavtuey Schaener, a unt 1 oi l
tiu.e Kiiow-No'.Liag orator aul agititjr aru
in Washington lobbying for the passage o
the bill. - " '
The revival and adoption of the defunct
Know-Nothing inane by the Republicans is a
noteworthy sign of the times. It betokens a
consciousness that the negro agitation has
spent its force. -That Dagon of the Philis
tines Has fallen in the temple of its worship
pers, and they are constrained to call on some
other god for help. Tbey have succeeded in
introducing seven hundred thousand black
voters into the body politic; but those black
voters are concentrated in a minority of the
States, and are intermingled with an intelli
gent white population always remarkable for
political Activity and skill, who are likely to
gain over tne negro mind the ascendancy
which knowledge exerts over ignorance,
property over indigence, employer
over employed, neighbors over neighbors,
and social standing over an inferior caste.
The Republicans can no longer put their
political trust in the negro; and as something
must be done to retrieve the falling fortunes
of their party, they can hit upon nothing
better than a resuscitation of the old hostility
to the rights of naturalized citizens. As the
great State of New York' seems more hope
lessly lost to the Republicans than any other
State in the Union, the Naturalization bill is
more immediately directed against the De
mocracy of this State. Mr. Davis, one of
our Republican Representatives, is its author,
and Mr. Uonkhng, one of our Republican
Senators, takes charge of it in the Senate.
If this Know Nothing bill is to pass, we
hope it will pass now. Time enough will
elapse before the Presidential election to
amend our State constitution, if the radicals
pass it at this session; and with the indigna
tion it will arouse among our immigrant
population, it will be easy to carry an
binendment placing them on the same
liberal footing upon which they have
always stood in several of the West
ern States. If the radical Know-Nothing
Congress force us to take such a
step, we can easily open the door to all bona
pdc residents, vthether naturalized or not,
aLd permit thcta to vote without naturaliza
tion papers. In the V est, immigrants vote
on ILe same terms as natives; and if New
Yoik should adopt the same rule, our
Irish and German inhabitants would vote
after one year's residence, instead of the
hve j ears now required, lhe Republicans
are introducing a game which two can play
at, and the winning cards are in the hands ef
the Democrats. The Kuow-Nothings in Con
gress make a great blunder in assuming that
naturalization is a necessary prerequisite to
voting, in the face of a long-settled practice
to the contrary in several States. Any State
that choses can adopt the same liberal prac
tice by a simple amendment to its constitu
tion.
The Know-Nothing Naturalization bill is
also a blunder on the part of the Republicans
who are pressing it, in another respect. It
vtill consolidate the whole naturalized vote in
favor of the Democratic party. The war has
shaken the control of the party over the for
eign voters, and nothing could be better cal
culated to recover it than the adoption of the
old Know-Nothing issue by the Republicans.
The whole body of foreign-born citizens will
stand by the Democratic party and give us
their zealous support in defending their
rights and frustrating federal oppression by
counteracting State enactments. Whether
the new naturalization bill passes or fails, it
equally discloses the hostile animus of the
Republican party towards our adopted citi
zens. They are reasonably jealous of their
rights, and will need no persuasion to throw
their influence on the side of their tried and
steadfast friends.
THE DISCORDANT DEMOCRACY.
From the A. Y. Timts.
The preaching of the Democratic Senators
and members scaroely harmonizes with their
practice. Having been neither moderate nor
discreet in their Congressional course, the
lesson they now read the party throughout
the country sounds oddly enough. They
have been hindrances, not helps, to praetical
reform; they have made every question re
lating to the South an occasion for fomenting
discontent and assailing the validity and com
pleteness of reconstruction. Even so cour
teous a gentleman as Mr. (Jox could not allow
the Georgia debate to pass on Friday without
revealing the bitter hate with which his party
regard the legislative foundation on which
the new South stands.
The address issued by the Demooratio
caucus just held at Washington suggests for
the fall campaign the cultivation of quite a
different spirit. Senators and Representa
tives who have done their utmost to perpetu
ate idle and mischievous controversies now
entreat their friends to "let there be no dis
sensions about minor matters no time lost
in the discussion of dead issues." What these
"dead issues" are, we are left to cmess. They
must refer to the war and reconstrnotion, or
the expression is virtually meaningless. But
why not say so explicitly? If the Demooratio
Senators and Representatives really intend
that their party in the coming elections shall
acquiesce in the new order of things at the
South in negro enfranchisement, and the
civil and political equality Becured by the
recent constitutional amendments, why hesi
tate to state the case in plain terms? Is it
that the Democratio legislators, remembering
now the philosophizing or the World touching
"dead issues" has been received by the more
pronounced organs of the party, have hoped
to avert embarrassment and offense by the
adoption of vague and politio phraseology r
If this has been the purpose of the caucus,
we can imagine the consternation created by
the address of Tammany. The pru
dent generalization of the leaders at
Washington is marred by the character
istic blnntness of the leaders in New
York. Tammany may be unscrupulous, but
at least it is not hypocritical. And the cir
cular of invitation sent forth by the Sachems,
in connection with the Fourth of July festi
val, shows that the spirit which dominated in
July, 18G8, still desires to be the exponent
and ruler of the party.
While, then, the Senators and Represents
tives blandly counsel the abandonment of
"dead issues, Tammany taxes unusual pains
to invest these issues with a living interest
and importance. According to Tammany, the
issues arising out of the Republican policy of
reconstruction are not dead they slumber
only until the fall campaign begins. True,
the address declares that "all questions con
nected with the late civil war are properly at
an end.' But the context in reference to the
new Southern governments makes it evident
that these are to be assailed whenever the
Democracy obtain power. "The entire South
is without a stable government," the Sachems
assert; and the task of restoring to the
South, "in all us completeness, the old gov
eminent," is designated as one of the
prime duties, of the party. What
"the old Government" signifies, in a Demo
cratic sense, and as applied to the South, we
cannot doubt. It means the overthrow of
exihting things, and the restoration of the
syst-iu which alone can make possfble Demo
untie ascendency in the Southern States.
The discordant elements which manifested
themselves within the walls of Tammany two
years ago, still "operate, with undiminished
forc. There are judicious Democrats who
would discard the "deadt Issues,? and there
are zealous Democrats who would keep them
constantly before- the people.' Whether the
relative strength of the two sections has been
changed since the nomination of Seymour and
Blair is a question that will remain unan
swered until the State -Conventions, by their
platforms and nominations, formally indicate
the party policy.
