TLe feeling wbioh has been exoitei 1q Washington, and extends to all plaoes in tele grupLio communication with the national capita), in consequence of President Grant's attempt to degrade and disgrace one of the moBt important members of the party by which he was elected, is a noteworthy sign of the times. In this heated Republican quar rel Democrat take no part. They are mere spectators. But in snch an unseemly fraoas, bybtanders are the coolest judges; and in the present case, Democrats are more likely to do justice to both factions than they are to do justice to each other. As between the comparative qualifications of Mr. Sumner and Mr. Cameron for the chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations, the question is ridiculous. In domostio politios Mr. Sumner is, to be sure, fanatic; but a sincere fanatio is a more re spectable character than a notorious corrup tionist. On foreign questions, Mr. Sumner is extremely well informed, whereas Mr. Cameron has no more knowledge of foreign politics than every man catches up from the newspapers. Mr. Sumner has a personal acquaintance with many of the leading states-rut-n of Europe; he has always taken a keen interest in European affairs; and being tho roughly oonveraant with recent European his tory, and with the motives and seoret springs of modern diplomacy, his qualifications for the position which he has held for the last ten years cannot be disputed by any of J the Bervile supporters of the President. If his filaoe could be given to another Senator equally utelligent and aooomplished, the change would not provoke muoh comment; but an exchange of Cameron for Sumner is so pre posterous in point of fitness that the country would look on with amazement, if it could be amazed at any absurdity perpetrated by Gene ral Grant. What is the excuse offered by General Grant's sycophants for supplanting a tho roughly equipped publicist like Sumner with an ignoramus in foreign affairs like Simon uameron t ine exouso is that Mr. Sumner differs, on some points of foreign policy, from President Grant and Seoretary Fish. Such an exouse is a grosss insult to the Senate. It is an arrogant attack on its in dependence. It assumes that the Senate has no right to differ from the President on questions of foreign policy; whereas, by the Constitution, the Senate is entitled to sit in judgment and review npon the action of the Executive, and ratify or rejeot its measures according as Senators may or may not think the Exeoutive has aoted wisely. The Consti tution makes the Senate a restraint on the foreign policy of the President, and autho rizes its own independent judgment in approving or rejecting his measures. But General Grant insists that the revising Senators shall be his servile tools. Lie denies their right to any judgment which differs from his. lie requires that the Senators shall be, not his judges, as the Constitution makes them, in questions of foreign policy, but his echoes. In other words, he is engaged in an attempt to break down the restraints imposed upon the foreign polioy of the President by the Constitution, and to make his own will supreme in ques tions of that kind. His demand that the Senate shall not dissent from his views, and that its Committee on Foreign Relations shall tamely accept whatever he chooses to diotate, is a claim to be emancipated from constitutional restraints and to exercise an absolute control over the foreign polioy of the Government. By the Constitution the Senate has a right to differ from and control him; has a right to rejeot his treaties and overrule his foreign polioy; and is as free and indepen-' dent in Its own sphere of aotion as the Presi dent is in his. It is a piece of insufferable intermeddling and domineering arrogance for him to diotate whom the Senate shall appoint on its committees, and to demand that the Committee on Foreign Relations shall be Sacked in subserviency to his personal views, e has so more right to say who shall be chairman of that committee than the Senate has to say who shall be Seoretary of State. Kay, he has less right; for the Senate oan refuse to confirm a Secretary of State whom the President appoints, but he has no shadow of a title to interfere in the organization of the Senate committees. Yet this is what General Grant has been doing; and it is no wonder that his intrusive, intermeddling arro gance provokes warm opposition. One pretty certain consequence of this quarrel will be the defeat of the President's Santo Domingo job. There was only five majority against Sumner in the Senate cau cus, and those Senators who opposed the wishes of the President in oauous will have as little hesitation in voting against his soheme in the Senate. A treaty of annexa tion, whioh requires two-thirds of the Senate to ratify it, would be defeated by superfluous votes; and if an attempt should be made to carry the project by a joint resolution, th Republicans will be so divided that the Demo cratic votes may turn the scale against it. But a defeat of General Grant now will be a personal and political humiliation, whereas, if he had not provoked this quarrel, the failure of the Santo Domingo projeot would have little significance. Another consequence of this quarrel will be an organized opposition to the renomina tion of General Grant as the Republican candidate for President. The contempt in which he has long been held by intelligent Republicans who are best acquainted with him, has now found a good exouse for utter ance, and from this time forth the Republi can party is divided into a Grant faotion and an anti-Grant faction. With the enormous patronage he wields be will probably secure a renomination; but if he does, there will either be an open bolt by his bitter Republi can enemies or seoret conspiracies to defeat bis election. This quarrel will become so envenomed that there can be no reconcilia tion; and as Grant is destitute of political talents, his Republican enemies are pretty sure to get the better of him. In view of the hatred and animosity whioh have grown up against him in his own party, Democrats have every reason to wish that he may be the Republican candidate. A SUGGESTION TO THE HIGH C0MU13 6I0N. Vrvm the A'. Y.Sun. Since it is declared, with some ahow of probability, that the question of com peas, tion to our Dominion neighbors for the right of our fishermen to ply their vooation with out rtbtriction, either within or without the imaginary three-mile line from the oolonial shores, Is now tinder consideration before the nigh Commission, we beg to offer a suggestion. Our colonial friends have some valuable bituminous coal mines in Nova Sootia and New Brunswick, only partially worked, owing to want of a market. We think well of admitting their coal free of duty. But there is so much objection to a repeal of the existing tariff on this commodity, that the duty still stands and is likely to stand. Sup pose now the High Commission, while it is on this branch of its business, should make the proposition to offset the duties we now collect, against the right of fishing every where. Let us fish wherever we like and we will admit Nova Scotia coal free of duty. This is a fair bargain; and if anything is to be paid for a privilege that really belongs to ns now, we insist it Bhall be no more than this. And we cannot holp believing such an arrangement would be satisfactory on the British side. The right to fish on the ocean is a right belonging to everybody, and it is sheer impudence to undertake to restrict it. In former times, when it was the fashion to keep convenient pretexts for war always on hand to be used an occasion required, this fishing question held a prominent place. If Eng land and France, during the long years when they were contending for mastery on this continent, were ever at a loss for a quarrel, this question, in some one of its Protean forms, could always be counted npon to f Or nish the desired provocation. The present agitation of the subjeot is but a relio of a past tradition. It is an absurdity from beginning to end. Why should not any men and every Bian traversing the open sea be at liberty to cast a line and catch a fish when and where he will ? The sea is the highway of nations, and whatever swims therein is the special property of not one of them, but of all. The ooean is but one vast common, where all have equal rights and all should roam at will. The idea of there being any private or national property in its hidden finny tribes is simple presumption. It was only when England claimed to own and rule the seas that such a pretension could be endured for an instant. But that day has forever gone, and now let all the rubbish of such a claim perish with it. If nations desire to preserve the three mile line from the actual configuration of the coast, by way of a convenient skirt to their jurisdictional limits, so be it. But let the claim' be construed to cover cases of substan tial consequence only, such', for example, as the conflicts or belligerents. tor every peaceable purpose, let the nse of the open seas, wherever they are navigable, be free and unabridged to all the world. We should be glad if the High Commission would break from the traditional follies of the past and assert this principle as their cruide, Let them not try to erect anew the staroh and buckram fences which have been put up on tne ocean in tne past, and which guard no body and guide nobody, and serve only as traps to the nnwary mariner who extorts his scant subsistence from the treacherous depths of the sea. .these technical and snppositi tious boundaries, whioh cannot be seen, are but a snare in the hands of the idle wicked to catch the laborious poor. They deserve no consideration from men who are repre sentatives of the people, and not mere in strnments of arbitrary Governments, as ne gotiators of old in too many cases were apt to be. In proposing the compensation we do for the relinquishment of an unfounded preten sion, we think we go far enough. We pro tect against that superfluity of generosity which would go further and pay money for a claim intrinsically not worth considering, and which, at best, is but a convenient pretext to extort concessions which oan be neither claimed nor obtained npon any fair grounds whatever. DOES THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY ACCEPT THE CONSTITUTION AS IT IS? From the X. P. Tribune. Another Presidential election is in sight. It rests with the party now in opposition to determine the issues to be therein decided. If that party shall see fit to say, "We aooept and will obey and enforce the Federal Con stitution as modified by the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments," the country may safely regard the issues raised by secession and the consequent oivil war as closed, and prooeed thereupon to the para mount consideration of economic and finan cial questions. This is the shape whioh (we judge) most intelligent and patr;otio citizens prefer that the next canvass should take. We have been mainly quarrelling about slavery and negroes for the last twenty years. If only for variety's sake, it is high time for a change of topic Slavery was a weighty theme in its day, but slavery is dead, and its death involves logically the clearing away of all the wreck and debris of the late arduous struggle. The negro is no longer a slave; what can he be henceforth but a man? And, if a man, why should he not be aooorded the rights, privileges, franchises, responsibilities, and obligations of manhood no less, no more? The Kilkenny cats having demolished and devoured each other, is it necessary that their tails should keep np the scratching, spit ing, and caterwauling? As a Republican, we have no right and no wish to direct the future course of the party to which we shall at any rate stand opposed. If that party shall see fit to challenge us to fight over again the battle of 18G8, we shall of course take np the gage with great and well-grounded confidence of suooess. We have ne fear that the American people will reverse in '72 the verdict they recorded in the eleotion of Grant and Colfax. In a purely partisan aspect, we should consider this our Heet hold." But there are other considerations of grave moment by which that of party advantage is counteracted and overborne. It seems at least Erobable that, whenever the late Rebels shall ave been thoroughly convinced that the negroes are to be henceforth their fellow citizens, sharing fully and equally every fran chise and immunity of citizenship, they will stop killing them. It is the hope of paralyzing With terror large portions of the Republi cans, white and black, of the South, as those of Georgia and Louisiana were paralyzed in 18G8, that inspires the Ku-klux atrooities now rife in several Southern States. These can not be incited by any rational expectation that the Republicans will be exterminated; the calculation evidently is that killing soma will awe the rest into a surrender of their rights as essential to the saving of their lives. In short, the present Ku-klux demonstra tions at the South are simply a more cowardly phase of the Rebellion. They are a fulfil ment of the Rebel menaoa that the civil war could and elwuld be prosecuted for twenty years after the overthrow and dispersion of the Rebel armies. Ita object is to "Let the nigger know his place" whioh, now as ever, in the Rebel conception, is under the heel of the white man. Until this bkulking warfare, with masks in stead cf banners and torches in plaoe of gre nades, bhall LaTe been somehow terminated, the Republican party cannot cbinge its atti tude, cor can it give that attention and em- 1 phaais to questions of political economy and finance which the public good imperatively requires. Pledged by all its glorious past to inflexible and paramount fidelity to the rights of man, it cannot, while these are assailed and imperilled, devote muoh attention to the policy of raising or lowering the imposts now payable on the Importation of iron, or fabrics, or sugar. And, in the absenoe of suoh atten tion, there is great danger that unwise and injurious changes in the tariff may be made, which, if their nature and hearings were fully understood, would be condemned and de feated. What we would ask of the Democratic ma nagers we trust, without presumption is simple frankness. They aot on the offensive, end have the right as well as the power to choose their point of assault. They may take the ground pioneered by rank Blair in 18G8, and proclaim the anti-slavery amendments of the Cob stitu tion frauds and nullities, and negro suffrage a Federal usurpation, to be crushed out by "the Southern people" that is, the late Rebels so soon as they shall have resumed control of the Government. Or they may (as some of them do) say, "All this is bygone. The three Republioan amend ments are a part of the Constitution; the negro is a citizen and a voter; we cannot undo this if we would: so we aooept, and will try to make the best of it." We only require of tbem that they eschew concealment or equi vocation, and tell the country exactly what they mean. If the wishes of the majority were to pre vail, we know that the next Democratic plat form would reiterate the party's approval of the sentiments of Frank Blair. Negro-hate and sympathy with the late Rebellion are the animating impulses of at least two-thirds of those who voted for Seymour in 'G8 and will vote for his lineal Bucoessor in 72. But the leaders of a party do not always allow the mass of their followers to dictate platforms, even when their own real sentiments are em bodied therein. Doubtless, the Democratic National Convention of 18G4 proclaimed what the Democratic masses believed and felt when it pronounoed the war for the Union a failure and demanded an immediate cessation of hostilities; yet McClellan's chances of elec tion were thereby blighted. So the great body of the Democrats of 18G8 were delighted with the idea of paying the national debt in greenbacks: but that plank in their platform cost Seymour (who did not believe in it) a great many votes. A party under the weather cannot always embody all that it would like to do in its platform; it must consider how others will regard a proposition, and whether it is or is not calculated to repel many whose Bupport is essential. This was not done at Chicago in 18G4 nor at New York in 18G8, and the consequences were disastrous. "Give me but light I" said Aiax. Only let the Democratio platform be outspoken and candid, and the next Presidential canvass must prove a long stride towards the final set tlement of questions whose early solution is essential to the nation s well-being. REPUBLICAN PROSPECTS IN FRANCE. From the A". Y. Timet, Paris is possessed with its old frenzy again. The overshadowing danger, in presence of which party clamor was stilled, has passed. and a vague unrest, born of a despairing con sciousness now impotent has been their re sistance to a relentless enemy, seems to have taken hold of the populace. In default of the Prussians, the "Reds" want somebody to wreak their vengeance en. Franoe, and, above all, Paris, has suffered a great defeat and a great humiliation, and yet nobody oan be found on whom to lay the blame. At Bor deaux the people have been calmly voting away provinces and huge indemnities that will absorb the spare -earnings of a generation, but there is no talk of impeaching anybody, unless, per haps, the Emperor, who is already as good as dead; there is no new oath of the tennis-court by whioh the popular deputies should, this time, bind themselves to remain in session till means were devised for taking revenge npon the foe who seems to the mind's eye much less formidable now that his field artil lery and his intrenchments are no longer contracting the circle of fate round the city, The suppressed fury of the proletariat of the capital nas, therefore, begun the familiar series of fitful outbursts, whioh, unrestrained by a strong hand and a vigorous will, may lead to revolution and chaos again. Fortunately for Franoe, the patriots of Montmartre and Belleville cannot just yet work any serious mischief. The Government is strong in resting npon the deliberate choice of the people, and in being backed by a large majority oi tne representatives of the provinces, who are tired of the diotatioa of Paris, and many of whom are prepared to support tne proposal oi removing the politi cal capital Bomewhere else. They are also Btrong from the fact that a sincere desire to maintain republican institutions is visible in all their measures. Could M. Thiers' and his colleagues be convicted of plotting for a monarchy, a revolutionary protest would be intelligible, and might be exceedingly diffi cult to aeai whb. uut ail their acts, of wmcn we have any reoord.I-jhow a Dunotili ous desire to maintain republioan forms, and an honest determination to give popular (juiuuuioui a lait uiai. iu. xuiera insisted npon the insertion of the word "republic" in the resolution of the deputies which forms the warrant of his office, lie retains three republicans in his ministry, who would not hold office for a Bingle day were they to be required to assist in an Orleans restoration. By some snch reasons as these, emphasized ho doubt by a reference to the readiness of his cannon, General de Palladines managed on Thursday to bring the mutinous officers of the National Guards of Belleville to reason. France has Bhown her willingness to be ruled by moderate counsels, and the sooner Paris reaches a similar resolution, the more rapidly will proceed the peaceful reconstruction which the country so urgently needs. It is time that Frenchmen recognized the faot that, grievously betrayed as they have been, they have suffered chiefly beoause they were untrue to themselves. For two generations . neither Conservatives nor Radicals have been capable of compromise or of gradual reform. The political life of the nation has thus alter nated between repression and lieense, and has been devoted to the worship of every pos sible idea Legitimist, Orleanist, Republioan, and Imperialist to the exclusion of the idea of true liberty. Evidences are not wanting that France has profited by sad experienoe, and that the Thiers Ministry embodies her attachment to practical results in preferenoe to vague aspirations, to republicanism that respects the rights of all in preference to a regime that gives either a man or a mob an irresponsible and absolute power.
