TI1K LAST OF CONGRESS.
Having early in the day yesterday postpone!
the hour of adjournment from noon to 2
o'clock, both houses of Congress at the last
moment agreed to a further postponement of
the time of separation, and it va3 not until "
in the afternoon that the finale was witnessed,
The cause of the delay was a menstge f roni
the President, demanding for one thing jonie
definite legislation on the Indian question.
Without the passage of an Indian Appropria
tion bill of some sort, the President argued
that "Indian hostilities are sure to ensue,
and with them sufforing, loss of life, and ex
penditures vast as compared with the amount
asked." This was a forcible argument, and
it brought both houses to terms. There had
been a radical disagreement betweon them on
the Indian question, the point in dispute
being the power of the Senate to conclude
treaties with the aboriginal tribes which may
take money out of the national treasury with
out the consent of the House. Several
millions were needed to fulfil the
obligations entered into by the treaties
negotiated with the savages Ly the Shermau
Peace Commission since its appointment in
July, 18G7. The House, having at the outset
authorized the appointment of the commis
sion, bad steadfastly set its face against the
power of the Senate to control the Indian
question through the agoncy of treaties;
while the Senate had been equally persistent
in asserting its power. Hence the collision.
But, in answer to the demands of the Presi
dent, both houses finally yielded a few points,
and before the adjournment yostenJgn
compromise u a'nanipulaTingJthe red
the interests of peace, with the pro
viso that nothing contained in the bill shall
be held to affirm or question the validity of
the treaties of 18G7 and 1808. So the Presi
dent gained his point and obtained the money
he had asked for, while the vexatious question
as to the right of the Senate to monopolize
the Indian business under the treaty-making
power goes over for settlement to the next
session. All the other material measures
pending on which there were disagreements
between the two .houses were likewise dis
posed of satisfactorily, and when the Sena
tors and Representatives took their leave of
each other yesterday afternoon their labors
had been terminated as fully as usual at the
end of a session.
The President's message, however, was
mainly taken up with another matter. In
view of the impending conflict betweon
France and Prussia, he urged such legisla
tion on the part of Congress as would enable
the transfer of vessels of foreign build to the
American flag to be made. This proposition
was in direct opposition to the established
policy of the country from the first, and, as
was to be expected, encountered violent op
position. After considerable discussion in
both houses the adjournment was effected
without action, the opinion being prevalent
among Senators and members that thero was
no necessity for hasty and ill-considered
legislation upon the Bubje'ct. There can be
no doubt that, if Congress had listened to
the appeal of the President, a few
days would have witnessed the un
furling jot the Stars and Stripes from
the mast of every Prussian mercantile
vessel afloat. This, of course, would have
been a good thing for the American commer
cial marine. But, as stated by Judge Kelley
in his speech in the House yesterday, the
shipbuilders of the Clyde would probably
have been the first to avail themselves of the
privilege conceded, and the result would have
been an utter prostration of our ship-building
interests for years to come. While a carefully
prepared measuro, looking to the interests of
all concerned, might have been passed if
Congress had had enough time at its com
mand to perfect it, the wholesale accessions
to our tonnage resulting from such a bill as
that prepared by Senator Chandler would
have been so disastrous in their effect that
it is well nothing in the matter was done. It
is possible that our postal intercourse with
Europe may be somewhat incommoded by
the operations of the French navy, as wo ave
a1 most entirely dependent for ocean mail
transportation at present upon vessels flying
the North German flag. But if the war be
tween Napoleon and Bismarck should prove
as short, sharp, and decisive as were the
campaigns of Solferino and Sadowa, the in
convenience will prove but a temporary one;
while, in ease Russia, Austria, Spain, Eng
land, and all the rest of Europe become in
volved in the struggle, it will be so protracted
as to give Congress an opportunity to afford
some relief at its next session, which com
mences in a little more than four months.
ULTRAMARINE DEMOCRACY.
John Bbown'b soul may still be marching on,
to the regret and perplexity of the Democratic
party, but it has one source of consola
tion the body of the fanatical hero of Har
per's Ferry , has been disposed of in tho most
Satisfactory manner. The other day, in the
Spanish Cortes, Senor Moret y Prendergast,
the) Regent's Minister of Ultramar, or the
lands beyond the sea which is the rather poet
ical term, applied by the Spaniards to their
colonies gravely announced that the Ameri
can people not only hanged John Brown with
out granting him a legal trial, but such was
their indignation at his raid upon the institu
tion of slavery that they "flung his body into
the sea that their soil might not be pollatoj
by its presence 1" It will perhaps he regarded
in this country as a little singular that tho
discovery of this important fact was delayed
more than a half a score of years after its
occurrence, and still more (lingular that the
discovery was reserved for Senor Moret y
Prendergast, the : Ultramarine Minister of
Regent Serrano. But tho truth in the
matter is wolcome, even at this late day,
and earning even from Such an ultramarine
source. Our chief regret is that the Democracy
were not made aware of it sooner. What a
ro'ass of political capital has been suffered to
go to waste in consequence ! In the present
and all future campaigns the Democracy can,
of course, make the most of the ind'gnitios
which were heaped by an outraged people
upon the mangled corpse of old John Brown:
but the political history of tho country has
been sadly marred, nevertheless, and no
amount of zeal in disseminating the truth
hereafter can make amends for the mischief
wrought by ignorance in the past. We would
suggytt that ti-e disembodied spirits of the
late Democratic Assc-ciation which held its
weekly pow-wows at Njnth and Arch streets
gtt themselves together in the spirit, if not
in the flesh, and that John Campbell and Mr.
Nuby be invited to deliver addresses before
them which will put the party squarely on the
record, and set right the disreputable error
iiito which the country has fallen concerning
the actual disposition of John Brown's body.
When it is clearly demonstrated to the Demo
cratic masses that John Brown's body is not
and never has been mouldering in the grave,
perhaps they can be persuaded that his soul
has paused i n its monotonous inarch.
WAIl.
Yesttbday France formally declared war
against Prussia, and in a few days the forces
of the rival powers will in all probability be
joined in battle. In this contest the French
Emperor has everything to win or lose, and
he is now playing his last and greatest stakes
with fortune. If he comes out of the con
flict victorious and with his opponent hum
bled, his throne may be considered secure, at
least during his own lifetime, and Le will
leave it to his bon with a prest'.pe th H"
, . , , the support of
far towards securi"" ,ti j t IV
IX.. ..people. If he is defeated Napo-
leonism may be considered as practically at
an end, aad all the discontent that a success
ful vt would stifle in Franco would break
forth in irrepresiblo fury.
Witt Prussia the case is different, for at
the most she can only be thrown back to her
old position of a second-rate power. The
stability of her throne will not be menaced,
and a defeat may even be a benefit 1 3 the peo
ple by stimulating them io extend the bounds
of liberty, and to lay deeper and broader than
over the foundation of that great united
German empiro that has been the dream of
centuries. In statesmanship Bismarck has
f-hown himself thus far mora than the master
of the cruel and cunning tyrant who for the
last t wenty years has assumed to be the arbi
ter) of the destinies of Europe, and now
that an appeal has been made to arms, it re
mains to be seen whether Napoleon can
regain the prestige he lost when the United
States ordered him out of Mexico, and when,
the diplomacy of Bismarck being crowned by
the victory of Saduwa, the influence of Prus
sia threatened to overshadow that of France.
In the ocnttst about to be waged Franoe
means Napoleon, while Bismarok means
Prussia and German unity, The French
armies will fight for the perpetuation of the
Bonaparte dynasty, while the victory of Prus
sia will bo a guarantee that the bounds of
liberty will be enlarged and that the political
instability of France will no longer be per
mitted to disturb the peace of Europe as it
has heretofore. The sympathies of the peo
ple of the United States thus far have un
mistakably been with Prussia, r.ot merely be
cause she has been insulted and bullied by
France, but because it is believed that tho
overthrow of the military power of France
will be beneficial to the peace and
prosperity of Europe, while the extension of
Prussian power and influence can scarcely be
otherwise than favorable to the growth of
liberty and the progress of enlightenment
and civilization. In the contest
that is about to commence a decisive victory
by the cation with the best free school sys
tem and perhaps the highest educational
average of any in the world not excepting
the United States will mean somothing more
than a triumph of the IloherizoUern family
and the glorification of Bismarck.
It is almost impossible at this time to form
any idea of the possible extont and duration
of the war. It may be as short, sharp, and
decisive as the campaign of Kouiggratz and
Sadowa, when Prussia humbled Austria, or il
may precipitate a general European conflict.
This, indeed, is most likely to occur, and it is
aheady rumored that Prussia has secured tho
assistance of Russia.
With France engaged in a war that is
likely to tax all her military resources to the
utmost, the opportunity is certainly a favor
able one for the Czar to attempt to realize the
object of bis father's ambition by seizing
Constantinople, and to pay back some of tho
old Crimean scores by aiding in the destruc
tion of the power which was chiefly instru
mental in defeating Russia in that contest.
Austria and other nations all have grievances
on one side or the other, and all the indications
are that such a conflict as Europe has not
seen since the days of Napoleon I is iui
pending. THE IRON-MO UL DEI'8 AND TUX
CHINAMEN.
The iron-moulders now in convention in this
city have been especially severe upon the
Chinamen. They adopted a report and reso
lutions bitterly ho.stile to Chinese immigra
tion. The preaiablo sets forth that this im
migration is designed and intended "to reduce
to poverty and barbarism the workingoien of
this country," and, following up this line of
argument, the resolutions declare that it will
"reduce the wages of mechanios and laboring
luen to a rate of compensation upon which no
Ainuican oikinguian cau possibly subsist,"
as well as "lower the social status of those
who are now socially low enough," and "lead
to a state of pauperism, dependence,
and crime."' If these allegations are
strictly true, the American ports cannot too
soon be closed against the Asiatics. But it is
possible for Iron-moulders, as well as editors, to
fall into mistakes, and to grossly magnify what
they imagine to be their immediate interests
while they lose sight of their own substantial
welfare and that of their neighbors. The
true pecuniary interest of every laborer, as
well ns cf fvc-ry other citizen, is to get the
largest possible supply of the necessities,
comforts, and conveniences of life in ex
charge for Lis exertions or the interest on
his capital. Whother the nominal money
value of his wages is large or small
is a matter of little moment
compared with the purchasing power of his
income. . When a thousand-dollar bill of Con
tinental money could barely buy a breakfast,
it bad no more roal value than a twenty-five
cert note of fractional currency at the pre
svnt day. Although the most remarkable of
these fluctuations in tho purchasing power of
money are caused by departures from a specie
bapis and the over-issue of paper promises,
they are also frequently produced by unusual
or unnatural scarcity of the articles most
craved by man. A famine speedily increases
the price of flour, a prolonged strike in the
anthracite districts of Pennsylvania inva
riably enhances the market value of coal, and
cotton rapidly advanced after cotton-planting
was abandoned on -many Southern planta
tions. Abundant production quickly brings
down prices, and cheapness of the articles
which workingmon or any class must pur
chase is in numberless cases a greater boon
thnn nominal increase of income, salary, or
wngs, accompanied with a corresponding in
crease of the cost of rents, dry goods, and
groceries. If the iron-moulders were satis
fied that the Chinese would never meddle
wih hot or cold iron or iron-moulding in
this country, they could wish no better for
tuno than to retain their present waao"
Chinamen were b -- "" amongst us
, ... r-ug tne cost of houses, clothing,
and food; and if a sufficient number
of Celestials should come among us to sensi
bly reduce the cost of the necessaries of life,
the iron-moulders could well afford to reduce
their seal of prices for labor, and to have
the cost of iron mouldings diminished, and
still be gainers by the round transaction in
stead of being in the slightest danger of re
lapsing into poverty or barbarism. Every
thing that the Chinamen can do in this
country to diminish the cost of production
will practically increase the income
of each individual citizen by in
creasing its purchasing power, and if
a portion of the existing laboring force lose
their present positions, the country is wide
enough to furnish abundant new fields for
their energies. Such temporary calamities
have repeatedly happened, and in tho nature
of things must frequently happen hereafter,
without inflicting permanent injury; and
many thousands of the most successful men
in America to-day owe their fortune to indus
trial disruptions similar to those which may
possibly be produoed in a comparatively few
irstances by Chinese immigration. If the
nation sedulously seeks "the greatest good
of the greatest number," it matters little
how many private apple-carts may be upset.
Americans are proverbially skilful in accom
modating themselves to novel circumstances,
and it will be singular if they cannot manage
to get honey from the Chinese bees without
suffering seriously from their stings.
