THE INFALLIDIL 11 Y OF THE POPE.
The Tope and hia immediate supporters have
obtained a triumph in the adoption of the
dogma of infallibility yesterday in the (Ecu
menical Council by a vote of 4."0 to This
result will not surprise any one who has fol
lowed the discussions on the subject that
have taken place since the assembling of the
council. It is evident, however, that the ad
vocates of the dogma anticipated a much
easier viotory than they have gained; and
could the bitter opposition of some of the
most prominent and influential prelates have
been foreseen, it is extremely doubtful whe
ther the council would have been called.
'Iho infallibility of the Tope, spoaking
ex cafWwr, would soem to be a necessary con
sequence of the position the Church of Home
has always assumed with regard to the autho
rity derived by its visible head through an
uninterrupted line of predecessors from the
Founder of the Christian religion himself.
Tested by the facts of history, however,
the dogma will be worthless to men
who do not wholly allow their faith to
oveipower their reason, for practically
it has been denied again and again
by the Popes themselves. Of late years, hove,
ever, a vast majority of the members of the
Catholio Church have tacitly believed in the
Pope's infallibility without exactly accepting
it as an article of faith. The discus
sions, however, which, the council has elicited
have caused many to examine into a subject
that previously had excited but little atten
tion; and the consequence is that, while the
Pope and his immediate advisers have gained
a nominal victory, the liberal party in the
Church has been consolidated, and a spirit of
inquiry awakened that bodes no good to
Catholicism, in certain quarters at least. In
deed, it is difficult to understand what end the
TJltramontanists expect to gain by the pro
mulgation of this dogma; and although the
vote of yesterday is a remarkable evidence of
the discipline of the Roman Church, and of
the real power which its rulers hold in their
hands, the calling of the (Ecumenical Council
certainly appears, at this time of writing, to
be nothing more nor less than a blunder of
the moat gigantic proportions.
The faot of the matter is that the whole
management of the affairs of the Church are
s in the hands of a little ring of Italian priests,
who are too ignorant of the affairs of the
world to understand what the requirements
of the ape really are. There are learned and
able men like Dupanloup, Strassmeyer, Dol
linger, Hyacinthe, and others, who feel that
the Church ought to be in advance of the
civilization and enlightenment of the century,
instead of behind it, and that the policy pur
sued by the Vatican Cabinet is not such as
will secure to the Church the support of the
commanding minds of the age, but they have
been overruled at all points by the Ultramon
tanists. So far as the open, enemies of the Roman
Church are concerned, the decision of the
(Ecumenical Council on the infallibility
dogma ought to fill them with exceeding
great joy. It will be a powerful argument
to wield against the Church and her preten
sions, and Protestant preachers in denounc
ing the ''soailet woman" from their pulpits
for this new iniquity will only need to use
against her the words of her own children.
THE CAMERON EXPURG ATION.
A Washington correspondent has been em
ployed to throw out a delicate feeler in the
shape of a despatch to a morning paper, in
timating that Hon. William H. Armstrong, of
the Williamsport district, is about to offer a
resolution expunging the resolution censuring
Mr. Cameron as Secretary of War, passed by
Congress in the early part of 18(2. The
despatch adds that "there is little doubt but
that it will pass without opposition." Of
course, Mr. Cameron is entirely innocent and
ignorant of the proposed proceedings, be
cause Mr. Cameron has instructed the cor
respondent to say so; and of course, as is
stated, he is "wholly indifferent to the existence
of the resolution in question," because he has
since been vindicated by a re-election to
the Senate. Considering that the task of
vindicating himself from the debauchery
which compassed his election to the Senate
has been greater than he has been able to
master, it is but the part of prudence for him
to remain "wholly indifferent" as to his vin
dication from a resolution of censure, passed
by an overwhelming majority of Republican
Congressmen, and which for nearly a decade
has remained unchallenged on the record of
the House; and of course Mr. Armstrong's
honest constituents will be "utterly in lift e
rent" to hia aotion in the premises.
We are glad that the work of expurgation
is about to begin. It is sadly needed. Mr.
Cameron's long and eventful life is fast draw
ing to A close. He has passed the period
allotte 1 to mortals, and bis declining years,
when the infirmities of frail humanity are
thiokening their shadows about him, a'louU
be solaced, if possible, by at least soon
solitary monument of " respeot. Thm
far bis life is but a wittered wtste
of consuming records of shame. Every
official position he has attained has left some
hideous ghost to haunt his dreams, and some
jxed stain upon the order of his advanoe
jnt. And now that he must soon retire in
pitifu l senility, or mingle with the dust of
hia faUhdrs'U l9641111 tuRthe QOuW no'
leave aa tlw Blave "purged to hi
By all means let the work of expurgation
begin. Let Mr. Armstrong hasten to intro
duce and pass his resolution "without op
position," and let the honored sons of Penn
sylvania file up to the Clerk's stand, with
grave and measured step, and draw the
coveted black lines of expurgation around the
biting blunder committed in the agony of the
nation's woes. In the front rank of the
honored detail to perform the grateful task
Bhould stand the manly form of Kelloy, who
but a few years ago proclaimed, in a publio
letter, that the highest honor he coveted was
that it might be said of him "that Simon
Cameron and his confidential friends
were ever hostile to me." He might write
below the lines of expurgation, as he did in
addressing his constituents August II, 180.",
these harmonious words: "Whether acting
with the Democratic, the Know-Nothing, or
the Republican party for he Cameron has
in turn disgraced them all he has never been
false to his criminal instincts." Close to him
should be the benignant face of O'Neill, who
is now met with a disorganization in his own
district animated by Cameron, . beoause
O'Neill is not subservient to his cease
loss prostitution of the Republican
party. Next should come the venerable
Townsend, who won tin easy victory in the
contest for his place because his chief com
petitor had to Btagger under the weight of his
relationship with Cameron. Next we should
look for the genial Cake, Mho was twice
elected in an adverse district in the face of
Cameron's open and bitter hostility, although
the regular nominee of the Republican party.
Covode would hasten to the work, in requital
of Cameron's betrayal of his Gubernatorial
aspirations in I860, to give Cameron the
mookery of a rump Presidential recommenda
tion. The stately Woodward would come next,
with his grateful memories of the venality of
1845, that made the names of a dozen bolting
Democrats immortal in infamy. Next
should bo Phelps, whose revenue appoint
ments have been rejected by Cameron bo
cause they would not bow to his debauchery.
Cessna must grace the column, and his
delight will be intensified by the remem
brance that Cameron's obedient followers
voted squarely for bis opponent in 18(5S,
giving him the narrowest escape from defeat.
Armstrong, blushing with the author's pride,
could add to the laurels about to grace the
conqueror's brow, that Camoron joined a dis
organization, and overthrew him in a Con
gressional race in 1802; and behind them all
should corse Forney, who could crown
the task with his memorable words tittered
in his paper in January, 1807, viz.: "In
short, the wishes of the Union Republicans
of Philadelphia could in nothing be more de
liberately dtjied than by her Senator's and Re
presentatives in the Legislature voting for
General Cameron for United States Senator."
He could add in pathetic justice: "Sacred to
the memory of Lebo, Maneer, and Wagonsel
ler." Thus completed, the work of expurga
tion finished, there should be sunlight mingled
with the evening shadows of Cameron's life.
But the work would scarcely be com
menced. The grave and unimpressible
Dawes should be called to confess that his
sworn reports, exposing the revolting corrup
tions and peculations pf the War Office, know
ingly tolerated, if not participated in, by Came
ron, were but pleasing political fictions for the
time. General Hitchcock should be made to
own that his scathing report on the Winne
bago frauds was a falsehood and a crime.
Colonel Jordan, now Secretary of the Com
monwealth, should certify that his bold
exposition of Cameron's bribery and corrup
tion in the Senatorial contest of 1855
was the offspring of perjury; and
Ball, and Taggart, and the score or so of
others who proclaimed to the people of the
State in 1855, that Cameron sought to climb
to a seat in the Senate by shameless cor
ruption, should certify that they knew not
what they did. Kunkel should be brought up
to confess that his suits instituted against
Cameron to recover the mysteriously vanished
surplus of the Middletown Bank, were but a
heartless persecution; Chase should bear wit
ness that Cameron's expulsion from the Lin
coln Cabinet, and the after-thought letter of
resignation, were sacrifices of the administra
tion to endear him to an honest people, and
Dr. Boyer intibt crown the imposing tablet
of expurgation by testifying that his sworn
exposition of Cameron's venality in 18G3 was
but a legislative romance.
Let Mr. Armstrong hurry along the begin
ning of the good work. The time is short
for the long course expurgation must run,
and great offices are to be performed. There
must be no delay. Onward, friends of the
long-reviled and despitefully used statesman
onward to the grand consummation!
TJJE TAX-1ARIFF AND FUNDING
DILLS.
Both branches of Congress yesterday adopted
a Tax-tariff bill and a Funding bill, which
now only await the signature of the Presidant
to become laws. So many conflicts of
opinion existed in regard to these measures
that an infinite number of favorite theories
and sections had to be surrendered to secure
harmonious action; and while the bills in the
present shape are not entirely acceptable to
any one, they at the same time contain some
provisions which will command universal ap
proval. Whatever may be the omissions or
errors of the Tax-tariff bill, the fact that it
will reduce the public revenue eighty-five
millions of dollars per annum cannot fail
to afford much-needed relief. Some
of the most oppressive forms of internal
revenue taxation will be entirely swept away,
and the abolition of taxe"s on sales after the
fii st day of October, and the abolition of
the stamp tax on receipts and notes under
fclOO, will be especially popular. The in
come tax is also rendered less obnoxious to
a largo proportion of those who have hereto,
fore paid it by an increase of the exemp
tion to $2000 and house rent, and by a re
duction of the rate to two and a half per
cent. The reduction of the duty on coffee
to three cents per pound, on tea to fifteen
cents per pound, and the redactions on angir
will also extend welcome relief to every i
homestead. '
The main difference between the Senate
and House in regard to the Funding bill
hinged on the desire of the former to force
the proposed new banks to take the new
bonds, drawing a comparatively low rate
of interest, but on this point the desire of
the House to place the new institutions on
the same footing as the old ones prevailed;
and now the Secretary of the Treasury has
full authority to negotiate new national
loans bearing four and a half and four per cent,
interest, to pay off the old six per cent loans.
If he can be successful in theso efforts, the
burden of the debt will speedily be materially
diminished: and it is stated that he confi
dently expects to sell twelve hundred mil
lions of bonds issued under the provisions of
the new bill.
2 HE HO WARD IN VESTIG ATION.
Majority and minority reports were pre
sented to Congress yesterday by the commit
tee appointed to investigate the charges
which were made against General Howard
some months ago by Fernando Wood. These
reports arrive at diametrically opposite con
clusions, the majority declaring that Howard
has done a great work in a remarkably skilful
and honorable manner; that he is not guilty
of any of the alleged offenses; and that "if
there be anything in the conduct of the affairs
of the bureau which could excite a suspicion
even in the breast of partisan or personal
hate, it is owing to the fact that General
Howard, conscious of his own purity, intent
on his great work, has never stopped to think
of the appearances which men of less con
scious integrity much more carefully regard. "
When they enter into particulars they explain
away the charges which on their face soem to
have an ugly look by the allegation that How
ard was legally entrusted with large discre
tionary powers, and that he has executed
them with sound discretion. The ' patent
brick company business is presumably set
tled by the statement that Howard had with
drawn from it before the tumble
down materials for the University
were actually delivered. They deny
that Howard was improperly interested
in private speculations, and conclude their
report with a resolution denouncing Wood's
charges as "groundless" and "causeless."
The minority, on the other hand, claim that
the majority has labored to prevent a full and
fair investigation, endeavoring rather to con
ceal the truth than to expose it; that he ex
pended nearly $(!00,000 on the Howard Uni
versity alone ; that this large sum was
expended upon that institution for
the double purpose of perpetu
ating his name and fame, and for giving his
favorites opportunities to enrich themselves;
that he unwisely and improperly invested
public money in bonds issued by a church,
which are an unproductive and unreliable
security, giving the bonds, in turn, to asso
ciations which should have received the
money; that he draws two salaries, one of
$ t00() as a major-general and one of $5000
as chief of the bureau; and that the other
charges made by Fernando Wood are fully
proven. They conelude with a resolution in
structing the Secretary of War to have Gene
ral Howard tried by a court-martial, and to
take immediate measures to protect the in-
tercets of the Government in all matters re
lating to the funds and property which he
now controls.
These resolutions were made the special
order in the House of Representatives to-day,
and if mere partisan considerations control
that body General Howard will be handsomely
whitewashed. A candid publio, however, will
find it difficult to give an enthusiastic en
dorsement to either the University scheme or
any of its complications. Since the National
Government abstains from erecting costly
universities to instruct the white race, we
can see no good reason for providing facili
ties, at the public expense, for instructing a
few negroes in the higher branches of
collegiate education. It would have been
infinitely better to expend such money as
could be spared in teaching four millions of
negroes how to read, write, and cipher, than
to squander vast sums on a pet project which,
under the most favorable circumstances,
could only confer direct benefit upon a very
small portion of the colored race. Let the
House vote as it may to-day, we hope it will
never again sanction, directly or indirectly,
anything like the Howard University scheme.
IDE CLERGY ON DICKENS.
The majority of the clerical attempts to
make the sudden death of Charles Dickens
point a moral for the benefit of living saints
and Binnera have, we are sorry to Bay for the
credit of the cloth, been anything but suc
cessful. In our humble opinion, the subject
is not one for pulpit discussion, but if the
character of the deceased novelist is to be
reviewed by zealous clergymen hard up for
something to talk about, there might be a
mean found between unstinted eulogy and
vulgar abuse. The last, we are sorry to say,
has been the characteristic of a great many
of the sermons on the subject of Mr. Dickens'
life, character, and works, and men who
profess to believe the soripture that declares
charity to be the greatest of all the virtues,
have been eager to assert that the novelist
was no Christian, because he did not ex
pressly declare his belief in Christ in his
writings; that he was a drunkard, and that
bis death was the immediate result of his love
for strong drink, because he did not advo
cate and practise total abstinence doctrines;
and various other charges of like charaoter
that do no credit to those who prefer them.
The latest and most curious development of
the excitement among the clergy with regard
to Mr. Dickens was a meeting of about fifty
Baptist ministers in Boston on Monday to consi
der the propriety of disoussing hia character
from the pulpit. After a full interchange of
opinion the fifty pursued the wisest possible
course under the circumstances by adopting
a resolution declaring that no special expres
sions of opinion were called for. Distin
ttubttd outbideis, however, will wonder how
fifty ministers should have ever got it into
their heads to hold a meeting for such a pur
pose, and in view of all the sin and misery
yet remaining in the world that require at
tention, it might be suggested to the above
mentioned fifty,' as well as to all the other
clergymen in the country, that there are
plenty of subjects upon which to exercise
their eloquence of vastly more importance
than the character of Dickens.
The European despatches published this
morning contain very little reliable informa
tion about the war situation. As is usual on
such occasions, there is a great deal of rumor
upon a very small basis of fact, but the posi
tion of affairs does not seem to be substan
stantially changed from what yesterday's
despatches stated it to be. One of the
most important rumors is that of the resigna
tion of the French Cabinet. If this is true,
it probably means that the Emperor proposes
to put an end to the experiment of a respon
sible ministry, and take the reins of power
into his own hands again. The Constitu
tionnel, the ministerial organ, said that the
candidature of Prince Leopold having
been withdrawn, the peace of Europe
will not be disturbed, and as nothing more
than this was demanded by France, the pa
cific solution of the difficulty is to be rejoiced
at. If this declaration is to be considered as
indicative of the position of M. Ollivier and
his coadjutors, the dissolution of the Cabinet
is not be wondered at. The Emperor means
to fight unless he can manage to bully Prus
sia into acceding to his demands without
waiting a passage of arms, and he hopes to
take his adversary at a disadvantage by attack
ing him before he is prepared for resistance.
On the other hand, Prussia shows no disposi
tion to knock under, and is apparently
quite as ready to fight as France. With two
such combatants eager and ready for the fray,
it is scarcely to be hoped that a conflict will
be averted.
OIUTIAKV.
Hod. Daniel H. Norton.
This morning Senator Daniel 8. Norton, of
Minnesota, died in Washington after an illness
of two or three weeks. Ho was born in the
village of Mount Vernon, Knox county, Ohio,
on the 12th of April, 18'29, and received his edu
cation at Kenyon College. After leaving col
lege he enlisted In the 2d O'aio Regiment, and
served for one year in the war against Mexico.
In 1848 he returned to Mount Vernou and com
menced the study of law. Two years afterwards
he started acr -s the plains to California aud
spent considerable time on the Pacific coast, and
in Nicaragua. On his return to Ohio he resumed
the study of the law, and in 1852 he was ad
mitted to the bar. He continued the
practice of his profession in Ohio until
1855, when he removed Jo Minnesota, where in
1857 he was elected to the State Senate. In
185'J he declined a re-election, but in 1860 he
was again sent to the State Sonate, and in
1862 to the State House of Representatives. In
18C3 and also in 1864 he was again re-elected to
the State Senate. In 1865 he entered the United
States Senate as Senator from Minnesota, and
his term would have expired on the 4th of
March next. He has served on the Committees
on Indian Affairs, Claims, Territories, and
Patent Office. Senator Norton was a Democrat
in politics, and voted with his party on all the
partisan questions of the day. He was a man of
fair ability, but he never made any decided
mark cither as an orator or a statesman upon
the floor of the Senate.
