THE DAILF BvlSNINO TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1871. arixix? or xzxo msss. Editorial Opinions of Ihe Lsadlnfl Journals uponCurrentToplos-Compiled Ever 0y for the Evening Telearaph, FKENCn IMMIGRATION, from the A". F. Tribune. . It bus been said that the French are aa uu proliflo, and, therefore, a non-emigrating fteople; but, whatever may be their natural nclinatioo, the late war will probably oompel a considerable exodus, especially from those departments that have borne the brant of the strife. Present devastation and prospective burdens of taxation must render these dis tricts "good places to go away from ;" and there are indications that the inhabitants are preparing to act accordingly. We may reason ably expect that the greater number of Immi grants will be attracted hither ward, and, in extending to them a helping hand, we may give better expression to that sympathy which has already done so much in direot benefac tion. We learn that a movement in this direction is now contemplated in our city. It is pro posed to raise by subscription a sufficient fund to purchase a large tract of land; to move a colony or colonies to it; to loan'the colonists means to make first improvements, and, if necessary, sustain them until harvest; re payment of all outlay, with interest, to be secured bv a lien npen the lands. Bach a plan, successfully carried out, might open the way for extensive and valuable accessions to our population. The failure of the first enterprise, on the other hand, might go far to discourage similar immigra tion. It is important, therefore, that this undertaking should be wisely managed. Much depends on the men chosen to fill positions of trust; honesty as well as ability should be seoured, as one rogue might ruin the soheme. Looation is also a point to be discreetly considered, and on this we offer a word of suggestion. The olimatio condi tions should approach as nearly as may be to ' those of France; and the aspects of nature Bhould favor the profitable pursuit of indus tries to which the immigrants are aocustomed, such as horticulture, especially vine-growing, Sheep-husbandry, and like occupations. Our judgment is that in Virginia or North Carolina such conditions may be found as well as, if not better than, elesewhere; and having the further advantage of being within thirty-six hours of New York. That the im migrant could reach his home again by two weeks' easy journey, would be the best possi ble preventive of home sickness. Land oan be had in these States much of it virgin soil on navigable waters or near lines of railroad, as advantageously as anywhere in the country. If the movement to favor French immigration is continued, one colony at least may be settled in the region indi cated. , PARIS AND FRANCE WHAT NEXT? From the N. Y. Ilerald. Paris continues in absolute possession of the Jacobin mob. If since the butoheries of Sunday night no further assassinations are reported, it is because all resistance to the "reds has disappeared, within the city a wans iney nave nnquaimed "iiberty.equality. and fraternity," as they understand these things, which means unbounded license, de bauchery and spoliation. Fresh barricades have been erected: the omnibuses have stopped running; traffio has ceased; only the cafes and drinking shops remain open; the Police Commissioners have been arrested: again the fisherwomen are in arras. General Chanzy was so maltreated by the mob that he had to be sent to the hospital; the insur gents have seized the funds of the city in the Hotel de Ville and the Mayoralties; aH the approaches to the city are defended by the Nationals against the National Govern ment; the Jacobin juntas are issuing nume rous manifestoes; they will shoot even M. Thiers if they catch bim; people are leaving the city by thousands, citizens and strangers, and so on, to the end of the chapter of this most astounding and alarming red republican Paris revolution. The only thing respected or promised respeot from the revolutionary Central Committee is the treaty of peaoe with Cterruany, which they promise to respect fox the sake of the republic or, in other words, because they have learned to entertain a wholesome fear of the German armies. Such is the state of things in Paris. The capital of France is nnder the control of a howling mob, the elements of which have nothing to lose and much to gain from the overthrow of law, order, and the right i of property. These subterranean savages and tans culottes, brought to the surface, have ordered an election in the several communes for a new city administration, and no doubt they will carry it through to their "complete satisfaction. Meantime the National Assembly and the exeoutive government of the nation, chosen by it, or from its authority, by M. Thiers as head of the State, and the diplomatic corps are at Versailles under the protection of an army of twenty, thirty, or forty thousand men, commanded by General Yinoy. Versailles resembles a camp; but M. Thiers is hopeful and the As sembly is firm. At its meeting on the 20th the "reds" belonging to the body were Tall absent. This signifies, we apprehend, that their ultimatum is the overthrow of the Thiers' government, including the Assembly, and the substitution of a Jacobin establish ment on the platform of the guillotine. The Assembly, on the other hand, in the resolution adopted providing for the appoint ment of a committee to consider the condi tion of France, and the necessity of placing the Departments of the Seine and the Seine-et-Oise in a state ef siege, has taken the proper course for the exigenoy. The Paris 'Reds," again, have called upon their par tisans in the provinces to act promptly; and it is possible that in Lyons, Marseilles, Bor deaux, and Lille, where they are numerous enough to be audacious, they will follow the example of their brethren in Paris, and take possession in eaoh case of the city and all the public funds and arms they can lay their hands upon. In Bhort, this reign of the "Reds" in Paris must be speedily Suppressed, or anarchy, with all the horrors of civil war, will soon prevail from the north to the south of Franoe, and law and order will be limited to the Rhine provinces taken pos session of by Germany, and to the champasrue districts, held as a "material guarantee" by me uerman armies lor tne payment of tnat indemnity. Here we see the sagaoity of Bis marck and Von Moltke in the securities they have exacted for the payment of said indem nity within the stipulated time. The money must be forthcoming when due, or those champagne districts will be apt to share the fate of Alsace and the Vosges, of Strasburg And Metz. There can be no doubt that if the Ewnaror William were to say the word tke Nap.jleonio empire, nnaer the protection of tuo French imperial army from Germany, would be at once reinstated. But the Emperor William does not appear to be in the least degree con cerned about these revolutionary disoorda in France. Louis Napoleon probably expects in a month or two to be reoalled to the Tuileriea as the only alternative to Franoe against a general reign of anarchy and politioal, indus trial, and social tula. The Vreds" ia . Paris are certainly making a better vindication for the empire than any that Napoleon has given since he set out on that disastrous journey to Berlin. It appears, too, that the prisoners of Metz and Sedan are offering their services to the Thiers Government, even through M. Thiers, would seem to offer a chance for Napoleon. . But those soldiers can do nothing else nnder the oiroumstanoes. Still, between Napoleon, Thiers, and those French imperial troops, there may be an open ing for the restoration of the empire through another coup d'etat; but the odds again snob, an experiment are so very disoouraging that we think it will hardly be attempted. The Germans, we are convinced, are per fectly indifferent concerning these internal disorders in France. They do not care whether law and order are completely re established in or are completely driven out of France. Empire, monarchy, or republic, anarchy or despotism, the Germans have no fears, no anxieties, and no assistance to offer. Suppose a condition of chaos shall come upon poor France, involving the prostration of her agricultural and manufacturing indus tries, the utter demoralization, bankruptcy, and beggary of her people, that her law- abiding and industrious classes by thou sands emigrate, for their personal safety and the security of their property, to other lands; and that suoh government as may exist in France for the time, instead of meet ing the indemnity to Germany, repudiates the whole national debt. What will this signify to Germany ? Only this, that if the indemnity agreed upon is not forthcoming at the ap pointed time, and there is no prospect of getting it, Germany will foreclose her mort gage, and appropriate another slice of the inviting soil of France, and suoh a slice as will make the appropriation to the Germans a better bargain than the money. It will be observed that even these sans culottes and "gentlemen of the pavement" of Paris have a glimmering of this thing in their proposition to respect the treaty stipulations with Uermany. 'Ihey propose, then, to pa the indemnity of a thousand millions of doi lars Tpciired of France, though they may up t republio of Thiers, and set up the republic of "liberty, equality, and frater nity," as they comprehend it. How, then, will they meet.tbis indemnity ? By the very simple process of the confiscation of the Burplus property of the wealthy French people; for, according to the red republican theory of equality, "property is theft, and the profits of banks and money-changers are stealings from tne community, and belong to the community or the State. That such fears exist among the Frenoh property holders concerning the "reds" we know from the elections to the present Assembly: that such fears exist among the Gatholio pea santry in reference to the property and insti tutions of their Church has been proved in the Bame elections against Gambetta and Com pany. Most likely, at all events, from the excesses of the "reds" of Paris, the Frenoh provinces and the returned soldiers of the late imperial armies will support M. Thiers in the restoration of the Orleauists or Jthe Bonapartes. It is still possible, however. that M. Thiers may effect a compromise with the "reds" of Paris, which will give the repub lio, npon a reasonable and conciliatory plat- iorm, anotner cnanoe in an appeal to tne French people. It is still possible, on the other hand, that France has reaohed that turning point in the downward road of revo lutionary factions, demoralization, and oonfu sion,whiohmay reduce her to the political and financial condition oi bpain. WHO IS TO HAVE FRINGE? From the X. F. Times. In the French Assembly, on Monday, the President, M. Grevy, took oocasion to "de nounce" the insurrection in Paris. At the same time, the Government at Versailles has addressed what is called a "reassuring circu lar" to the prefects of departments, informing them that the state of affairs at Paris is "no worse. Ibis seems rather like the answer of a'cautious dootor to the inquiries of anxious relatives, when his patient is about as bad as he is expected to be in this world. It is much more to the purpose to annonnce that the , . army gathering round Versailles and doubtless arriving . rapidly from Germany will be speedily set to work to quell the disturbances. Many of Bismarck's plans are incomprehensible at first, and there fore It is impossible to say whether or not the ouiDreaK coincio.es wim nis wisnes. uric, as there is nothing conoeivable for Germany to gain from a revolution, it is probable that he is quite willing to see the movement sup pressed. In that case, the Frenoh troops who were taken prisoners will be pushed for; ward to Versailles with as little delay as pos sible, and the insurgents, supposing that the army remains faithful to the Government, will soon be outnumbered. Bat oan these returned troops be depended on? Nothing is certain in Frenoh politics. The army may, after all, be disposed to regret the fate whioh has overtaken the Emperor. At this moment the destinies of Franoe might easily be moulded by any really popular military leader. A young Corsican lieutenant extinguished the remains of the old Frenoh revolution, and a man of superior genius to that of the First Napoleon would now find little diffioolty in making himself master of the situation. The disgraceful soenes whioh have osourred in Paris during the last few days will help to explain to many people how it happened that such a man as Napoleon III was allowed to rule for eighteen years. In the minds of the propertied and middle classes he was a barrier against socialistic revolution. As M. Prevost Faradol so well explained, the Emperor was allowed to reign because he was thought to be th e least of two evils between whioh the French nation had to choose. On one side the people saw, or thought they saw, gene ral anarchy, insecurity of property, disturbed trade, and all kinds of wild excesses. On the other side they saw a despotio ruler. It will be difficult even now to prevent the shop-keeping classes, the frugal workmen, and the small landowners, from drawing unfavorable comparisons be tween the young republio and the dethroned Emperor. They will say: "For eighteen years we have at least been free from civil war and insurrections. Commerce has flourished; we have all grown richer, or had a fair chanoe of doing so. We have bad foreign wars, some unnecessary, some unfortunate, and one the Crimean war rather glorious than otherwise to the national arms. But we were never called upon to fight with each other. Oar shop were not pillaged; the stream of foreigu tra vel which brings so much wealth into Franoe v.aH never turued abide. No sooner, however, is the Emperor upset than ,the cutthroita ara let loose on . the land, and chaos takes the place of a firm government. Such will be the reflections of some mil lions of persons in Franoe, and although it would be easy to show that the very disorders whioh we are witnessing now are partly the results of Napoleon s system of government the consequences of his demoralizing the labor market, la the way we have pointed out lb another article on Tuesday still the state of feelinc we describe will be a potent factor in the political complications now at work. If M. Thiers and his colleagues oannoi restore order within forty-eight hours from this time, the chances of the restoration of the empire will be immensely increased. The Emperor, at the head of his soldiers, could put down an insurrection in Paris, and there has been just enough of anarchy to make the people once more inclined to place themselves under bis protection. Such an event would be an unhappy one for France, but revolutions there seem destined to end in tne "one man power. A government is scarcely over thrown before the mob steps in and sweeps everything before it. All depends now on the temper of tne returning soldiers. It tuey are inclined to help the Republio, the danger will be averted. If they are disposed to wait until Napoleon is onoe more back on the shores of Franoe, there is an end, we fear, of the republio. Napoleon is not the man to shrink from making an experiment whioh offered even a faint possibility of his return to power. The series of startling and unex pected events which characterized the late war may cot be quite at an end even now. , KU-KLUX IN CONGRESS. From the N. F. World. According to present appearances, no Ku- klux bill will be passed at the present session. and nothing done beyond the appointment of a committee of investigation. The reason of this seeming forbearance is that there are some clear-headed lawyers among the Repub ican members of Congress, and no lawyer who is honest and intelligent will say that Cong ress has any power to punish ordinary crimes of violence committed within the juris diction of a State. Congress has no more authority to take cognizanoe of. such oflenses than the State of New York has to punish a murder committed in the State of Illinois. A committee of investigation is aoquiesoed in by Democrats, because they believe it will explode the wild exaggerations and reckless falsehoods of the Republican press; not be cause they believe it can furnish grounds for legislation by Congress. Competent Repub lican lawyers perceive as clearly as the Demo crats that such legislation would be unoonstl tutional; but they hope that a committee of investigation Will serve party ends. The Ke publicans disclosed their real aim on Tuesday by proposing in the Senate that the commit tee of investigation be permitted to print and publish the results of their inquiries from time to time during the recess. Tnis extraordinary propo sal needs no interpreter. It shows that the . Republican party feels the need of - a "bloody shirt," to be carried as a banner in the fall elections. A large majority of the committee will of course be Republicans; and the design of having them report "from time to time during the recess," is to furnish a hideous raw-htad-and-bloody-bones just on the eve of the autumnal eleotions to rouse and invigorate the Republican party. This proposal is a tacit confession that the com mittee is meant by the Republicans as an electioneering device, and that they are sensible it can furnish no pro per ground for legislation. . The Re publican majority of the committee will make it their business to find (or invent) in flammatory matter to influence the fall eleo tions in the Northern States; it being well understood that the Republican press will spread before their readers the reports of the Republican majority made "from time to time," and take no notice ' of the rectifying reports of the Democratic minority. There is no precedent for a Congressional com mittee making a report ' except to Congress by whom they were appointed. The proposal that the Ku-klux Committee shall furnish electioneering documents for the Republican party during tne recess, snows tnat tne oo jeot in view is not legislation to uphold order in the Soutn, but inflammatory appeals to ena ble the supporters of General Grant to carry tbe fall elections in tne North. - - ' It is impossible for any Republican mem ber to frame a Ku-klux bill which would not be in clear and flagrant violation of the Con stitution. Every such bill is a palpable usur pation of tbe exclusive jurisdiction of the State over ordinary crimes oommitted within their limits. It is not pretended by anybody that tbe State governments are not competent to punish the Ku-klux outrages, supposing the alleged outrages to be real. It will be readily admitted by' the most hot headed radical of them all, that it is both the right and the duty of the State authorities to suppress and punish such acts of violence. For in what do these pre tended Ku-klux outrages consist ? . Why, in murder, manslaughter, arson, maiming, and other crimes of violenoe against person and property. Mow these are crimes which the United States have never attempted to punish, and have no authority to punish, except when committed on the high seas or within plaoes (like the Distriot of Columbia and the forts) where the Lnited States have exclusive juris diction. Tbe whole body of the criminal statutes carefully recognize this limitation, as will sufficiently appear in the following cita tions from the United mates Statutes at Large: "11 any person or persons snail, witbln any fort. arsenal, dock-yard, magazine, or lu auy other place or district of couutrv under the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the United States, commit ttie criins oi win ul murder, such person or persons ou being mereoi convioiea suau suner aeaio. "If any person or persoua shall, within any fort, arsenal, dock-yard, macaslne. or other place or dis trict of country under the sole and exclusive juris diction or me united (states, commit the ctitne oi manslaughter and be thereof convicted, etc etc "If toy person or persons within any places upon the land under the sola and exclnaive jurisdlutlon of the Units d States, shall unlawfully cut off the ear or eart, cut out or disable the tongue, pat oat an eye, Bilt the nos, cut off the nose or a lip, or oat off or aisauie any unio or memoer oi any person, etc. etc. 'if any person within anv place within the sole acd exclusive jurisdiction of the United States, or upon the high seas, kball take and carry away, with an intent to steal or purloin, the personal property 01 auoiuer, ew cuv "We mi cut extend suoh n notations from the statutes; but enough has been given to show bow carefully congress, in its criminal legia lation,hasreepeoted the exclusive jurisdiction oi tne btates, ana avoided interfering beyond its constitutional authority. The principle to wnlcn all sucn legislation is conformed is, that Congress has the same power to punish ordinary crimes oommitted within the forts, arsenals, etc., that the States have to punish them when committed within their own State limits; but that its jurisdiction ia as strictly confined to suon plaoes as the criminal juris. dicton of eaou mate is oonnued to its own boundaries. Outside of the forts in our barLor. Congress can no more punish a mur der committed in tbis State, than the State of New York can punish a murder or other or li Lsiy crime committed ia New Jersey. Not only Congress but the Supreme Court has always recognized this principle. We repeat tne quotation we mane a row days ainoe trom the opinion of Chief Juatioe Marshall in the case of Cohens vs. irglnia: "Connected with the power to legislate within this District (of Colombia) la a similar power in forts, araenaia, coca-jams, eu wonRrcsa una a riRtit to punish murder in a fort er other place within Its exclusive Jurisdiction ; but no general right to punish murder committed within any of the States. iso, in the same act (tne act or 1730), section 9, a person who, having knowledge of the commission of murder or oiner leiony on ine nign seas, or within any fort, arsenal, dock-yard, magazine, or other place or district of country within the aole and ex clusive Jurisdiction of the United States, shall con ceal the same, etc., shall be Judged guilty of mispri sion and felony. It la clear that Congress cannot punish felonies generally; and, of consequence, cannot punish misprision of felony, it Is equally clear that a State Legislature, the State of Mary land, for example, cannot punish those who, la another State, conceal a felony committed In Mary lana." These quotations from the United States statutes and the deoisions of the Supreme Court are superfluously conclusive respecting the limitations of the power of Congress to punish ordinary felonies. Many of the Re publican lawyers in Congress appreciate these insurmountable obstacles, and reooil before them; hence their readiness to take refuge from an untenable position in an investigat ing committee which may serve an eleolion eering purpose.
