THE NEW ASPECT OV THE KIM3IAX
QUlfiSL'iON.
From the .V. T. Herald.
The dtspatcbbi we piitilishol yosterd.iy
morning, under our mostcoiupioujin foreign,
beading, indicate that the grand diplomatic
and military game which fur months pst has
held tho world in Ruspeusa aud has bestrewed
one of the fairest portion of Western Eu
rope with corpses, is working its way into
the clear revelation of perfect light. The
Rritiah Cabinet is in r state of crisis becvisi
Earl Grauville stands firm t Lis uoto, ou the
one band, and the altitmVi of the limsiau
Prince Gortschakofl" indio.tes no retreat
npon the other. Yet, in the meanwhile,
Russia pobitively disclaims any hostile de
gigns upon Turkey, and Prussia, as an iu
ternjodiary power and an intercessor, oonr
teonsly accedes to something quite novel.
What is that? the reader my ask. Ah! the
aeoret pith and kernel of the vthole matter
to wit, the virtual possessorship by England
of the new chief channel to Evtt Indian
commerce, the Suez Canal, leaving Russia to
do as (die pleases with the Ottoman empire.
Ta other words, Prussia finds it not only easy,
but just the very thing, working into her
own hand, to use both her powerful neigh
bors and secret friends Great Britain ou the
right and Russia on the left to out off and
extinguish the outside prestige and influence
of Prance, as she herself is trampling down
the military strength and trade rosources of
that aftlioted country at home. Bat yester
day France was the patron, as A son of hers
was the deviser and enginoor, of the Suez
Canal, and then England docried and op
posed the enterptise. To-day France is
stricken and English capital steps in to con
trol the prize so long secretly ooveted. Yester
day both in Syria and at Constantinople,
as well as in Egypt, France dictated the
evolutions of the Eastern question and
foreshadowed the destiny of tho holy places.
To-day Russia looms up as the master of the
situation.
"It is no longer in the north," said the first
Napoleon, whose conversations still form a
text-book for modern statesmen, "that great
questions will be resolvod, but in the Medi
terranean. There exists enough to content
all the ambition of the differenejpowers, and
the happiness of civilized nations miy be
purohasbd with fragments of barbarous lands.
Let kings listen to reason. . Europe will no
longer tolerate continued international hatrod.
Prejudices are dispersing; routes of oonanierca
are multiplying; it is no longer possible for
one nation to monopolize them."
J; Now, this is precisely tho wisdom whioh
Russia has pondered at home and has been
seeking to apply abroad sinuo the commence
ment of the reign of Alexander and nnder the
able guidance of Gortschakoff, the inheritor
in our time of tho best traits of Nesselrode.
She has shown as much in her enlightened
commercial treaties, and especially in those
contracted with her great Oriental neighbors,
Persia and China; in her propositions with
regard to the navigation of the river Amoor
the Muscovite Mississippi; in her genial and
friendly sale of Alaska aud her other posses
sions on tho northwest of our continent, and
in her spontaneous, abiding, and outspoken
friendship for her very antipodes in political
form tie American republic. Now we be
hold emerging at the eleventh hour, from the
vapors of the political caldron over whose
Hubble, bubble,
Toil and trouble,
the wizard Bismarck has been presiding, a
fresh and imposing conception of Russian
policy. With railroads rapidly stretching
their glistening lines, like 'rays of the rising
sun, to every part of her dominions, particu
larly on the south and east; with steamships
darting forth from all her ports on every in
land sea; with Christian missionaries persist
ently piercing the boundaries, crossing the
frontiers and penetrating the recesses of Mo
hammedan and heathen lands, Russia ad
vances npon Turkey, no longer for war,
but for peace. The thirteen millions
of Greeks, Armenians, Druses, etc,
and the one million five hundred thousand
Roman Catholics among the less than forty
million of souls subject to the Ottoman
soeptre.do not tremble at the approach of her
legitimate influence, for which, indeed, the
growing reforms adopted and favored by the
present Grand Turk himself have largely pre
pared the public mind of his dominions. In
a word, out of the perilous embroilment of
the present hour arises, in clear and beautiful
outline, a magnificent guarantee for the
security of the future, as out of primeval
chaos, "without form and void," with "dark
ness resting npon the face of the deep.
ascended, because the Sapreme mandate had
prepared it, a firmament of future oeauty,
"and there was light." The clouds and oon
fusiea that have fallen npon Franoe have
reeipitated the eastward movement of civi
ization and Christianity which might, other
wise, have lingered ou the way through
YTestern dynastio aspirations. Britain ad
vancing by Suez and gaining clear and swift
pathways to her .Last Indian possessions,
ltaasia must join (not oppose) Turkey at the
Dardanelles, and thus three enlightened
powers together must unite in pushing farther
eastward the arts and arms of Europe.
The Ctar steps to the front and into the
ommand whieh, tut seven short months ago,
Napoleon held and forfeited. The Turk and
the Egyptian are thrust into the vanguard of
the armies ol commerce ana reunion, which.
by local reforms, improvements, and reoon-
oiliamoDS, will settle the eld disputes around
the great central basin of the Mediterranean,
amd, at a day not distant, kindle a common
Weaoon-light and plant a common symbol for
the nations, with tne seat or the universal
CUiroh and the banner of the cross npon the
topmost heights or Jerusalem.
TERRITORIES OR STATES 1
JYw (JU X T, Time,
The revelations of the census, bo far as
they are known, afford little encouragement
to the schemes that are in preparation for
making a considerable addition to the roll of
State. The Influences that may be relied
pon to promote this objeot are neither few
aor unimportant; but they afford no justifica
tion for a premature enlargement of Federal
representation in the Senate, or of popular
epreaentatlon in the House. The reason
able ml td be observed tn snob cases is clear.
A Territory, to be qualified for admission as
a State, should have a population at least
qua! to the ratio laid down as the basis of
representation. That so small a population
sends two Senators to Washington, while
New York aends no more, is sufficiently ano
malous. But this equality of State represen
tation in the Senate is an essential oonditton
of l'tHleral unity, and though email politicians
sometimes'asflsil it as an injustice, no party '
has ventured to suggest interference with it.
Representation in the House, on the other
hand, is governed by numbers, and the ratio
established for exiting States should not be
deported from to hasten the admission of any
Territory. The last proposition was to Hi
the ratio at 133,000, but the prevalent feel
iBg was in favor of a larger number, and
it is not improbable that 110,000 or 1 ."0,000
will be the standard adopted for the new
apportionment.
Neither the present ratio, then, nor the
ratio that is likely to be adiptfit, atfords en
coumgoment to those who plead for the ad
mission of any of the Territories. Not one
of them uppioahts the standard. New
Mexico, wLicli has the largest population
say '.10,000 is, on aooount of tho character of
its population, least fitted for the repmsibi-
lilus of a State. 1-ucU of the otners is insig
nificant in numbers. Colorado, whse ad
mission has leen urged persistently, still
boasts of but 00,000 people. Idaho has the
same. Montana has 40,000; Wyoming,
2:1.000; Dakota, 1",000; Washington, 12,000.
The territorial position will be for years ta
come that whioh best beats their circum
stances ntiless, indeed, the growth of rail
road facilities t-hall stimulate their settle
ment to a degree unknown in the past. Fr
Colorado had more than 517,000 three years
ego; Montana at the same time .10,000; Idaho,
20,000; and Wa-diington Bomo thousands more
than it has to-day.
The fact that Oregon, admitted id 18"0, had
in the following year a population of only
r''.4t;r, and that Nevada, admitted in 1 H'J t.
h;id two years afterwards but 40,000, does not
affect the merits of the case. In both in
stances admission was premature! Oregon
has, within the lust decade, doubled its popu
lation Bpeamng roundly while .Nevada is
even now credited with only 4:1,000. Neither,
therefore, is at this moment qualified for
Federal representation, if as in eqnity it
should be the rule binding npn other
Stales were applied to them. Nebraska is
in the same category. In 1800 it had
28,841; now it has 10.",000. Taking the ave
rage of its increase, it could not have had
more than 80,000 when admitted in 1807.
What motives operated to produce the admis
sion of these States we neod not stop to con
sider. If political, these motives were un
wise; if vaguely liberal, they were unjust to
other parts of tho Union, aud especially to
other new States, in regard to which a greater
respect for the ratio of representation
had been observed. Thus. Iowa, at
the period of admission, could not have
had ltes than 130,000; Wisconsin not less
than 250,000; Minnesota, 12.",000. These are
approximate estimates, of course, but they
are sufficient for our present purpose. Thev
show that the admission of Oregon and Ne
vada was exceptional, and does not consti
tute a precedent for action in reference to
Colorado and the remainder of the resont
Territories. Even Kansas does not heln
them: its population when admitted did not
fall far short of 120,000.
The matter is not one in regard to which
Congress can afferd to be indiiTerent. There
may be powerful interests at work in favor of
elevating Colorado or Montana to equality
wiin oiaer Mates, out no looal, or personal.
or partisan consideration should for an in
stant weigh against broader reasons of rmblio
.policy which govern the adjustment of
representation, and determine the relative
power of States in regulating national legis
lation.
AMNESTY IN EARNEST. .
From the A. '. Tribune.
Zebulofe B. Vance, once Governor of North
Carolina and a general in the Rebellion, was
on Tuesday last eleoted to the united States
Senate by a majority of 01 to 43 over Sena
tor Abbott. In his speech at a serenade in
the evening he reviewed his former political
life, showing that he was always a Union
man. teat ne went out with his btate, and
supported during the war, out of loyalty to
North Carolina, measures which he did not
approve. He reiterates his devotion to his
State and to his fellow-citizens, and declares
that be will forever stand or fall with them.
He avoids all reference to his views, if he
has any, in regard to the relations between
bis State and the National Government. He
seems confident that he will be admitted to
his seat, not because he has any legal or
moral right to it, but because the recent elec
tions have resulted in Democratic gams.
That is to say, Mr. Vance goes before his
judges in an attitude of defiance to the laws
they have made; avowing his aotive participa
tion in a flagitious enterprise to destroy this
Government; making a boast of this, and as
suming that his election is due to it. He
claims that he is sent to the Senate as an ex
pression by his fellow-citizens of their admi
ration and approval of his unlawful aot. He
demands his Beat on the ground that the re
cent eleotions have shown a growth of Demo
cratic and a decline of Republican influence.
He makes no profession of allegiance to the
nation in whose chief council he aspires to
sit. He expects that a legal sentence of ex
clusion whioh rests npon him shall be re
moved by the men who imposed it. He in
sists npon justification without repentance or
faith.
If the Senators who are to decide upon Mr.
Vanoe's credentials were governed by the
same rule of conduct that prevails among
his supporters, tbey would make short work
of his pretentions. . They would send him
back te nis constituents for a further season
of meditation and discipline. They wo aid
recall to his mind the fact that the work he
was engaged in for four busy years has been
condemned by the general iudrneat and by
legislative enactments as illegal. If to the
undoubted right of the Senate to reject Mr.
Vance was added the natural resentment
arisirjg from his defiant utterances, the ques
tion would be very promptly deeided, aud his
comrades would be invited to make another
selection.
We hope that no such view may be taken
by the Senate. We Agree that Mr. Vance's
lone ana aiumue are in me nignest aegree
unnecessary and provocative. But resent
ments are not to be admitted as an element of
political motives. There is nothing to be
gained by rejecting the Senator-elect. It
would not effect a change in the mloda or
hearts of his adherents. If they elected an
other in bis place, we might lose in candor
and honesty more than we would gain in ap
parent loyalty. While Governor Vance's opi
nions and principles are as bad as p visible, in
an abstract point of view, his practical appli
cation of Item is altogether praiseworthy. He
denounces proscription and retaliation with
commendable vigor, ne declares that every
law, both State and national, should be
obeyed and respected by all. He is an honest,
courageous, hard-headed man, with good in
tentions and imperfect light. We believe
that such a man ia the Senate can do more
good than harm; and it might be difficult to
find any one who would more a leUt'y re
present the average intelligence aud oou-ci-tnce
of Lis State.
