Editorial Opinions of the Leading Journals uponCurrent Topics Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph. TIIE SA.N DOMINGO FRACAS IN TIIE SENATE. From the X. P". VorUu General Grant bas chosen to stake his per sonal credit, and the credit of his adminis tration, on a measure which, at the last ses Hion. received the deliberate condemnation of the Republican Senate. That a treaty is the proper constitutional method of acquir ing foreign territory was conceded by him self and his advisers, when he negotiated, with their Ranctior, the treaty for the annex ation of San Domingo. The Constitution makes the Senate the final judge of treaties. General Grant's San Domingo treaty came beforo that body for ratification; but, not content to leave the question rest on its merits, he exerted his personal influence and kept busy lobby agents at work to prevent its rejection. His efforts were of no avail. The treaty fell through. The public judg ment endorsed the decision of the Senate. No voice of complaint or remonstrauoe was raised by any respectable newspaper or any considerable pnblio man. In the elections of the year just closing the subject was not alluded to, having been consigned, by the consent of both parties, to "the tomb of all the Capnlets." It was regarded as one of the many abortive whimsies of a raw, inexpe rienced President. But General Grant having made his mark, and done striking things in the late war, coveted some kind of distinction as the head of the Government. The debt-paying policy was Doutwell's; bis action on Cuba thwarted the popular wishes; if the Alabama claims are settled the credit will be awarded to Secretary Fish and the negotiator; aud the President, as a candidate for re-election, wished to have at least one achievement of bis own to stand npon. His stolid mind could find nothing better than his baffled scheme for the annexation of San Domingo; and so, in bis annnal message, he surprised the country by an attempt to galvanize its corpse into life. He devoted more spaoe to it than to any other topic, and proposed to flank the treaty-niaking p wer by annexing San DomiDgo by a joint resolution. His conscious weakness in this dodge was disclosed by several symptoms. He intrigued with Senators to procure a reorganization of the Committee on i oreigu Kelations, a ma iority of whom were known to be opposed to nis pet scheme, lnis intrigue was toned. Tne cauous ot liepumican senators were brought to see that if they put off Schurz, or put off Patterson, bumuer, the chairman, would throw up bis place on the committee; which would be a damaging blow to the ad ministration and the Republican party. If the President had kept still, this failure to change the committee would have ended the scheme, as the Senators who were not hostile regarded it with indifference. Bat General Grant bas been so often snubbed and eli&hted that be could not rest. From the very first day of his administration, every thing he has proposed out of the customary routine or appointments nas met with reiec tion or neglect. Congress refused to repeal the law of 1781) to enable Mr. Stewart to be Secretary of the Treasury: it refused to repeal the Tenure-of office act; it treated the wild financial recommendations of bis first annnal message with silent soorn; it disre garded bin special measage urging the passage of Lyncb'a navigation bill: aud, at the close of the last session, it refused to consider bis recommendation to permit Ame rican registers to be given to foreign-built Bbips. The official head of a nation was never before so thwarted and belittled. Smarting under these accumulated humiliations, Gene ral Grant determined to make a stand on the San Domingo job, and "either make a spoon or spoil a born" by staking bis credit and in fluence on bis success. Finding him thus determined and despe rate, and foreseeing the damage a conflict would bring on the Republican party, certain judioioua friends have been trying, for two or three weeks, to bring about a reconcilia tion between the President and Mr. Sumner. Grant was sore and pig-headed, Sumner stood on his dignity; so these peace-making go-betweens only made matters worse. Finally the smothered volcano burst forth in a burning eruption of lava. Sum tier's "personal explanation," founded on the article in the Washington Patriot, was the lurid, lambent name that played about the summit, attracting the attention of beholders, and heralding the belching forth of the red hot flood. This was in the morning. In the afternoon the pent-up streams were vomited forth, and during the whole Deoember night the longest night in the year the volcano continued to belch and blaze. It was nearly 7 o'clock before the debated ended, and a vote was bad on Senator Morton's resolution, It passed, and its passage maiks an era in our national politics, it is the death-kuell of the Republican party. In the first place, it raises an absorbing issue entirety disconnected irom tne ques tions on wmcn parties nave Heretofore divided. Those questions have become effete when ao hot a quarrel can arise on a mere topio of yesterday. In the next place. it opens a breach between an original, dyed-in-the-wool Republican prominent in the history of th party on one side, and a leader who never acted with it till be became its candidate for office since the war. The prin ciples of the party have become obsolete when the dispenser of its spoils can carry the benate against tne leading representative of its principles. Thirdly, the fierce quarrel ihub Degun cannot be neaJed. Grant is na tnrally stubborn, Sumner rancorous and ob etinate; the one feels strong in his patronage, . ii t i ; l . . . ine omer in ms industry ana power oi ap pealing to nublio opinion. As neither is wade of yielding materials, they are certain between them to disrupt the Republican party. If Grant gets the nomination, Sum ner, Schurz, and a multitude of sympathizing associates who do not yet openly come into the quarrel will take good care to prevent his 1 cam . . ... eiecuon.

Most of us go through life without experi encing the sensations exoited by an arrest for felony, and possibly enjoy a satisfactorv con fidence that the ordeal would not destroy nor seriously aisturD our mental equilibrium. Some of us doubtless are, wh Je others are not. equal to the emergency: but who shall say which are and which are not? "You know bow it is yourself," is truer of almost any oiLer possible emergency titan or this. A . recent inoident, dimly and curtly spoken of in the journals, illustrates the general truth, and seems to point a moral. On Tuesday afternoon last, Mrs. E. B. rbelps widely known and highly respected in our city was engaged, like ever so many others, in buying presents for her little friends. While ho doing, she stepped into the spacious variety Htore known as Macy's, on Sixth avenue, then crowded with cus tomers. The girl who waited upon her sup posed f.Le (-aw ber take, or conceal, or have concealed, under her dress, a paper of candy worth two dimes, and thereupon charged her with theft. She was wholly among straugers; the pioprietor of the store was absent; and the accost d was very soon in the haads of an officer, and, directly thereafter, on her way to Justice Cox's police court at Jefferson Market, litre the liirl swore to what she must have believed to be the facts; there was nothing meed in reply; and, in a few miuutes more, Mis. Pht-lp was "sent down to the lock-up below, though not immured in a cell. Here a lavvtr, who chanced to be preseut, saw Ler, spoke with her briefly, saw at once that the whole business was a deplorable blunder; went up and spoke to the Justice, and he liberated ber ou her own recognizance. But for the nitre chance of this lawyer's presence she must soon have beew locked up in a cell for the night, and would probably have beeu found dead or raving mad next morning. Even as it was, she received a shock whioii give ber family reasons for serious appre hensions. All this, you say, would have been ob viated bad Mrs. Phelps had the presence of mind to call friends to her assistance when first accused. Certainly, but if you arc quite sure that yon would have had the requisite possession of your faculties just rest in tnat belief, and don't attempt to test its sound ness. Mrs. Phelps had lived many years within half a mile of the spot where she was accused, and was known to at least a hundred families within that radius, of ample wealth, high character, and ceaseless efforts and sacrifices to promote tne good oi otners. Unaccused of crime, she could have named in five minutes scores of persons within eav call who would nave con vinced the most Buspioious deteo tive of ber unquestionable integrity. But on being charged with stealing a paltry pack age and placed under arrest, sne was scarcely sure of ber ova identity, and could think of notbinc but the astouudiug accusation leveled against ber. She did, indeed, name a gentleman not far distant who knew aud would vouch tor ner; but tne policeman said there was not time to send so far, as he must have ber at the Justice s Court before 4 P. M. (when the court adjours), or his place would be forfeited. To Justice Cox she named Alderman Britton as an acquaintance, but be was not sent for, the Justice probably bein' in a hurry; and it is not now a novelty that "Prisoners hang that jurymen may dine." -The moral which we would impress upou ladies especially is Purchase where you are known; or, if you mnut shop where you are a stranger, take a friend with you. In a thronged store, a dexterous thief may reach under your arm and take an article from a counter which, being missed, it will be sworn that none but you could have taken. And, should yourself and the real thief be both ar rested, the chances are ten to one tnat you will exhibit the strongest evidences of guile, and the thief (if properly trained to his pro tension) seem tne picture of injured inno cence. We could not have named a lady whom we should have judged better qualified to undergo this trial than Mrs. Phoips; yet she broke down under it, as it is ten to one that yuu would have done. With a friend at ber elbow, she would nave passed it in tri umpb; but then a moment's explanation would have obviated all necessity for coolness or fortitude. The attendants at retail stores do and must regard strangers with suspicion they know that thieves are numerous, adroit, omnipresent, and capable of putting on ap pearances that might deceive the ghost of old Hats. Shop where you are kaown, or at least in company with one who knows you, CANNOT WE HELP ITALY ? From the A. r. Times. An impression bas already got abroad through Europe, owing to the meetings held in our large cities opposing the deposition of the Pope as a temporal ruler, that Amerioau sympathy is generally with the Pope, rather than with Italy, on tne question or nis tern poral government. Already a distinguished Englibh Catholic nas quoted this country as opposed to the efforts of the King of Italy to possess Rome and unity nis country. .Now nothing could be further from the truth. I here bas been, indeed, owing to pieoc cn pation with borne affairs, and other causes by no means creditable to our public men, an unaccountable silence in our community over this grand event of the century the secularization of the Pope's domains, and the union and liberty of Italy. But anyone who is at ail laminar witn tne tone or our intelligent classes, need not be informed that there is here an unbounded sympathy with the young kingdom of Italy in its efforts to break the fetters of priestcraft, and to make the Peninsula one under a constitu tional government. Even liberal Uatnolios are m Harmony with the aims of the Italian Government, and be lieve that the spiritual influence of the Pope w ill not be diminished by tne loss of bis temporal power The Protestant masses are united on this question. They have long looked on the Pope's temporal government as an anachronism and a disgraoe to a free Italy. Uur travellers have reported the un limited ignorance and degradation existing under that administration, and American sympathies have revolted at the oppressive and worldly rule or an ecclesiastical leader. Our people have followed every steo of the progress of the Kingdom of Sardinia with intense interest and approval. In the war with Austria, publio opinion here was universally on the side of Italy, and the acquisition of the Northern Provinces was rejoiced over here, as it was throughout liberal Europe, uaribaiai s victorious cam. paign against Naples, and the Italian con quest of. Southern Italy, awakened in America genuine enthusiasm. The check to Italian progress administered by Napoleon in shutting out Italy from Rome, and the an nexation of Nioe and Savoy, were thought to be fatal blunders, and to have soiled the only pure glory ot tne empire. Since then each successive liberal step of the Government of Victor Emmanuel has been followed by the universal sympathy of our masses; the secularization of the reli gions bodies, the spread of popular education, the development or parliamentary govern ruent, and the liberalizing of the monarchy, The impatience of the Italian people under the French occupation of Rome, and their unquenchable desire to possess a united country under a free government, were felt and responded to from every portion of our native-born population. Cavour's great motto, "A free Church in a free State," was our own. And when, at length, the capita lation of bedan forced Rome from the foreigner, and through the gap of me -iiia isonaparte Italian arcuiei marched to the Vatican, a universal thrill of Bynipatby and approval passed through our people. That the old priestly monarchy, dating almost from Charlemagne, which had now n its harvest of wrongs and oppressions for centuries, which bad once founded its throne over all earthly monarchies, and undor religious names bad scattered curses auioug mankind, whose fall bad been the object of prayer and the supposed subject of prophecy, should at length, after a thousand years and more of misni'e, be overthrown by its own subjects, and bo succeeded by a kingdom in bormony with the ideas of the ago, was something that no liberal American could hear of without the deepest feeling of ap proval. lhat there has been silence here, where there ought to have been a most open and eloquent recognition ot these grand events, is, we are confident, the result of accideut rather than design. There are surely publio nun among us who are not merely politi cians. and are not, therefore, afraid to ex press their sympathy with the greatest event in the liberal progress of Europe during this century. There must be orators and states men in this country who can spare a word of honest sympathy for a liberal European Gov ernment, Btruccling with priestcraft, and stiiving against fearful obstacles for a free Church in a united and free State. Is it not possible, in this city, or in Philadelphia, or Boston, to'obtain an expression of ptiolio opinion which shall relieve this country from misapprehension in the mind of Europe, and contribute to the moral strength of the Gov ernment of Italy in its struggle for the right? THAT "ROCK" AGAIN. From the V. Y. Commercial Advcrtier. Whether as an Atlas or a Hercules (it mat ters not which), Mr. Feohter, we are led to believe, might have carried the dramatio world upon bis back, bad it not been for Boston; and so the United States have shown themselves possessed of strength equal to any burden but the carrying of the groat New England blarney stone, fortunate was it for Sisyphus that be rested from his labors before Mrs. Sigourney sang of those hardy naviga tors who first cultivated tho ncqnaintance of the "Rock," or it might have been appointed Liui as the necessary accompaniment of that famous "up bill task, for which be bas received the sympathies of genera tion after generation of men. h torn a very ordinary rock, it has grown within the last 240 years to the pro portions of a colossal national nuisauoe. It is represented in both bouses of Congress, it has its worshippers in every department of the public service, it is annually dished up for us as a species of set off against the mirth and gladness of the holiday week, it is hurled at us from the pnhnt and the lyceum, it ex hausts Black Seas of printer's ink in rooord ing its glories, it is the horror of every news paper publisher, it weakens with its fulsome greetings even the stomach of tho elect, it strikes terror into the souls of the heterodox, and it makes a weary nation cry out in its anguish, "What has thy servant done, O Lord, that tbou shouldst be thus angry with him ?" Rock of New England ! mighty fetish of Puritanism! would that the "breaking waves" that "dash high" on that "stern and rock-bound coast" could pitch you into the Atlantic and give Buffering people rest.
