TUESDAY, MAY 23, 1871.
tw the Evening Tblkoratii, from Its original
establishment, has been In the receipt of telegra
phic news from the New Yorr Associated Press,
Which consists Of the Tribune, Times, Herald,
World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Evening Paul,
Commercial A dvertiser, and Evening Express. The
success which has attended onr enterprise Is, la
itself, a sulllcient evidence of the freshness, f ill
ness, and reliability of the sews which we hare
tecelved from this source. In March, 1370, we
entered Into a special contract by which Thi
Evening Telegraph has the exclusive use of the
news furnished In the afternoon by the Associated
Press to Its own members, the Sorth American, In
quirer. Ledger, Press, Age, Record, and German Demo
crat, of this city, and the leading journals of the East,
North, West, and South; and hereafter Thh Telb
ORArn will be the only evening paper published in this
i ity in which the afternoon despatches of the Asso
ciated Press will appear.
WThe earliest regular edition of the Tub
Evening Telegraph goes to press at l)tf o'clock,
and the subsequent regular editions at 2tf, 8 v, and
X. Whenever there Is important news of the com
plications In Europe, extra editions will be Issued
after this hour, and before the regular time for the
early edition.
COLLAPSE OF THE COMMUNE.
The late despatches from Paris confirm pre
vious reports of the rapid overthrow of the
last vestiges of the Commune, and it is now
expiring amid terrible conflagrations and
awful massacres. Its career was disgraced by
so many acts of folly, cruelty, violence, and
vandalism, that there will be few to mourn
its overthrow; and yet, amid all its extrava
gance and wickedness, there seems to have
been interwoven an idea which in itself was
worthy of the support of Frenchmen.
It is inconceivable that the
Parisians should have prolonged np to this
time a desperate and hopeless contest if some
of their leaders had not represented, as the
ultimate object to be obtained, a boon that
was worth a desperate struggle. This was
the principle of local self-government, as
contrasted with the absolute domination of a
centralized power. Paris demanded a free
voice in the selection of her Mayors and local
officials, as well as in the choice of members
of the National Assembly. The moment
chosen for the assertion of this doctrine was
fearfully nnpropitious; the reasons used to
enforce it were at once criminal and
foolish; the other avowed objects of the
Commune were nearly all unjust, visionary,
sanguinary, or impracticable; but the fact
that Paris has so long maintained an attitude
of resistance against all France is attributable
mainly to her devotion to one rational notion
intermingled with a hundred follies, and to
ber possession of a single political virtue,
stained though it was with a thousand
crimes.
Although the Commune is about to perish
(justly, in view of its follies and atrooities),
the leading idea it was organized to enforce
possesses too much inherent vitality to be
extinguished. It may yet become a part of
the governmental system of France, and that
country will never be really free or perma
nently prosperous until this doctrine is prao
tically applied to all her municipalities.
The career of the Commune, therefore,
was not altogether without a practical use.
The misery, distraction, destruction, and
terror it has occasioned, though horrible in
themselves, will still serve the impor
tant purpose of impressing French
men with the necessity ' of begin
ning the great work of political reform that
awaits them at the foundation. They will
learn that they must make free towns and
free cities before they can hope to organize a
free nation. Whoever may the ruler of
France, a party of varying strength will al
ways be ready to contend for local liberty,
and to deny the right of an Emperor, King,
or President to exercise despotic sway over
all the minute details affecting the welfare of
various departments and their respective sub
divisions. While the Commune dies, and
wbile its bad deeds and bad doctrines will die
with it, its 6ingle spark of statesmanship and
justice will live to find more worthy and more
successful defenders; and, in the end, to save
France, if she ever is to be saved, from her
furious factions and her fanatical follies.
M. Thiers, at the head of the Constituent
Assembly, represents one great and vital
Brincide. that the superior power of the
J. 37
nation 6hould be exercised only by an au
tbority created by the whole people. The
Commune has contended for another doc
trine equally important, that local freedom or
self-government should be respected . and
maintained. France, to ensure her future
welfare, must combine all that is good in
bcth these systems. .
A REFORMED l'RESU YT BRIAN OPIN
ION.
The ways of religious conventions are not as
the ways of other deliberative bodies, and if
the performances of the politicians are
chiefly remarkable for "tricks that are vain,"
those of the religious gentlemen who assem
ble in council to regulate the affairs both
spiritual and temporal of tbe various denomi
nations are distinguibhed frequently by a
lofty disregard for logio and hy an absence of
the important quality known as common
t-nse. After the scandal in the First
Reformed Prtsbyteriau Churob, the innpiring
cause of which was the refusal of a member
to limit Lis devotional tinging to Koine's
psalms, acy eccentiio "peiformances of our
Ittforuiod Pitabytttrian brethren can scarcely
be considered as strango or surprising, and
yet one of the resolutions passed yesterday
by the one nerm sitting in this city fa so very
remarkable that it must excite some astonish
ment. The resolution reads as follows:
"That the present condition of Prance In general,
as desolated by tAt storm of war, and of the city of
Paris In particular, as now drenched by the-blood of
her own citizens, la a righteous retribution for the
martyrdoms of 8t. Bartholomew's day. and a taniri
ble fuiaiment of the IX viTie promise to the Church,
No weapon that Is formed against thee sUall pros
per.'" .
Exactly how the members of the synod
were able to come to this remarkable conclu
sion it is diffioult for art ordinary non-ecclesiastical
intellect to comprehend; and it is
certainly rather hard upon the poor French
men to make them, in addition to all thoir
sins, responsible for the massacre of St.
Bartholomew's day, which was instigated and
put into execution by persons who are in no
sense represented by the influential French
men of the present day. The dynasty which
authorized the massacre has long since been
overthrown, and the priestly power which in
stigated it has for more than a century
ceased to have a controlling influenoe, while
at times it has been not far from annihila
tion. The causes of the disasters which have
overwhelmed France and Paris are many of
them palpable to the most superficial ob
server, and they have only a very remote re
lation to the massacre of St. Bartholomew.
We do not expect that any protest on the
part of the secular press will have much effect
in preventing religions assemblies from pass
ing just such absurd expressions of opinion
as that alluded to, but it is proper such pro
tests should be made, however, as it is dis
creditable that a body of men like the Re
formed Presbyterian Synod, who are supposed
to have at least wit enough to go in when it
rains, should bring discredit upon religion
and turn their deliberations into burlesque
by the ntteranoe of such nonsense.
TEE CONSTITUTIONAL CON V EN
TION. The Senate yesterday passed by a unanimous
vote a bill providing for taking a vote next
October on the question of calling a conven
tion to revise the Constitution of the State.
As Mr. White said, this was giving a stone
where bread was asked for; but as nothing
better can be expected, the people of the
State should accept it with thanks. The mea
sure was introduced by Mr. Buckalew, the
only Democrat in the Senate who is ever dis
posed to lay aside his partisanship on any
question of general interest or importance.
Mr. Buckalew might reasonably have been
expected to go further, and by voting with
the Republican minority to secure the passaga
of a perfectly fair measure providing for the
immediate assembling of a Constitutional
Convention. By so doing he would have
added to the high reputation which he already
enjoys. But the ties of party are unusually
strong under such circumstances as now exist
at the State capital, and a great deal of inde
pendence is required to break through them.
For what Mr. Buckalew has done, the people,
therefore, should be duly thankful. It is the
plain duty of the House to endorse the action
of the Senate without delay. For mouths
past the Democratic leaders have been, in
reality, steadfastly opposed to a Constitutional
Convention; and the bill which has passed
the Senate is, in a measure, a compromise.
Let the Bepublican majority in the House
act promptly, and the people will endorsejthe
call for a convention by such an overwhelm
ing majority that the next Legislature will be
compelled to provide all the requirements for
its assembling.
The Commune insurrection appears to be
practically at an end, as the Versailles army
has possession of a large portion of Paris,
and the reduotion of the barricades behind
which the insurgents are now fighting can
only be a question of time. What the next
move will be is beyond conjecture, for events
in France cannot be even remotely guessed
at by the aid of precedents, and it can only
be hoped that a sufficient number of real
patriots will be found who will cordially unite
to give the country a stable government and
to build up its shattered fortunes. It is re
ported that Louis Blano is now on his way to
the United States, and that he will be fol
lowed by Cluseret, Bochefort, and other gen
tlemen whose aspirations for liberty, equality,
and fraternity cannot apparently be gratified
in France just at the present time,
at least not in the way they
desire. It is impossible to feel any very
hearty enthusiasm over the prospective ad
vent on our shores ef these individuals, who,
it is to be hoped, will settle permanently in
New York if they do conclude to plaoa them
selves under the protection of our flag. The
government of New lork at tne present mo
ment is, acoording to all accounts, a trifle
worse in all respects than that of Paris has
ever been except under the rule of the Com
mune; and Bochefort, who gained celebrity by
his fearless attacks upon Napoleon III, may
find an appropriate outlet for his energies,
and do some good in his day and generation,
by assailing the imperialism of "Boss" Tweed,
which has all of tbe bad qualities and none of
the good ones of the Napoleonic system.
Fomfbodt has turned thief at Harrisburg;
or, correctly speaking somebody has been
detected in the act of thieving. The guilty
wretch is as yet unknown, but the document
on which he laid felonious hands can not be
found. The stolen paper was the original of
the Senate bill requiring the State Treasurer
to deposit tbe funds in his custody in the
banks ffering tbe highest premiums. As
this was a Democratic measure, the inference
is that the ginlty person has Republican pro
clivities. But if our friends at Harrisburg
would restrict their thieving to the peer on
which acts of legislation are written, we oould
readily forgive teem. , ,,
