Humiliation ol TV'cw
Under the above caption the Trenton jSlaie. Gazette
of Thursday says: Aftorweeks of consideration,
and after a debate lasting through two days, the
House of Assembly of New Jersey, by a deliberate
vote, las resolved that so far as -thts-Stato has the
power It will exert It to maintain, ptateotjaad
establish slavery. There IS no evadlfig this. De
mocratic members distinctly and unequivocally
avowed their.conviction that, slavery was. of.'dfcine
origin, established by the Almighty, sanctioned by«
the Bible, and approved- ijy yuf saviour; AtfCoiKp .

The Trenton Mj2»i(t»-,.QLxsat9rjlay,A»yfl: “ The
New Jersey Senate haj .postponed the resolutions..
ornthe Constitutional amendment tm March 14th. ■ '
There Is no prospeot of thelr -pessage in that body.
Aside fromtheinuUlity of the afterthe -deftatr >
of the measure in "the Assembly,'the Copperheads
of the Senate are as malignant andas* judicially
blind’as their partners In iniquity in the lower
Bouse. It Is known that some of the better inclined,
among the Democracy were disposed to support thej ;
amendment, bat the party screws were put down?
tight on all the members, and the rOsnlt was that
there Is not one-tenth as much righteousness in the
Democratic Assemblymen as was required to save
Sodom ;from perdition. The Copperheads legisla
tors on Thursday looked 1 sheepish ’—looked as if
they had done a mean and foolish thing; a mean
thing because they-had tied their party fast to the
putrid corpse of slavery •; a foolish thing booauso
they had' enabled the Unionists to make a party
question of the matter by quoting the flemooracy
solldlyiagalnst.lt.” -
The Opposition'organ In this city applauds, tho
New Jersey Copperheads for their support of bar
barism. We append an extract from'lts editorial
remarks: “The sound and incorruptible Democracy
. of New Jersey could neither ho purchased with
Abolition money nor soared hy‘'Abolition throats;
These appliances were brought to bear upon the
membeisof the legislature-In New Jersey. But
they failed, and the Democrats of that State refused .
to mutilate an instrument which hadthesanotlon of
Washington, and Franklin, and Jefferson,-and Ma
dison, at the bidding of snob men as Dlncoln, and
Stunner, and Stanton, and Wendell Phillips, and
Fred Douglass, And this notion will be ratified by
; the people or New Jersey. They are not willing ;
to be subjugated by New England votes, nor to
change the organic law of the land at the bidding
j of New England mnatles and agitators. No matter
what may be the-final decision of the States upen
this amendment question, no part of the Crime of
I tearing the nation from its constitutional moorings
I at this time, and setting it adrift npon the wild and
tempestuous ocean of partisan madness and bigotry,
without chart or compass, can be charged to the ac
count of the Democracy of New Jersey.”

civilization and Industry creep on’on after, fructify
ing deserts and bringing comfort oat of desolation
and misery. This fact Is observable in Virginia as
far out even as Fairfax county; or, In other words,
as far ont as safety will permit. In Arkansas the
same fact lsevldgnt, but it 1° particularly so in
Northwestern Mlssonrl above alt ’other localises.
It has, almost np to the beginning of the-present
year,.been a fighting ground. Price’s army and
legions of guerillas have been wandering and
stampeding over almost- every part of It. Bht as
rebel-necessity pressed guerillas and organized.,
armies towards the borders of Kentucky, Arkansas,
and Tennessee, peace came over the land and began
to repair what strife bad thrown down and broken.
On the lowa border of Missouri tho country Is be
ginning to assume its wonted thriving appearance.
All the counties In that section were, in the early
part of 1883, depopulated by military order. They
are now gradually filling up for miles with settlers
who have associated themselves In colonies’, as their
fathers did in the old times of Indian treachery, for
mutual protection. It is said that the farmers of
lowa and Illinois prefer Missouri land to their own,
and are now buying it uj> extensively for $l5 per
acre. In Bates county agriculture Is pursued with
the same attention as If there were no enemies
within a thousand miles. The people have an
abiding confidence In the strength of the Union—in
Its ability to keep away the out-throats It has al
ready expelled. The same happy effects will, we
hope, be witnessed In every other part of the theatre
of rebellion, so that in twenty years nature will
cease to be able to' tell of blood, and the memory of
war will exist only in history, to unwelcome pover
ty, and riven hearts.
Thmixihs Scene rat A Theatre.— Tho Buffalo
-Courier of the 28 th glveß an account or a sad affair
In the Metropolitan Theatre of that city on the
evening of tne 27 th, ultimo. The theatre was
crowded with witnesses of the play of “ Cinderella,”
which would have passed off well had It not been
for the Casualty. Hear the end of the second aot,
at the point where the fairy queen makes her ap.
pearanoe through the chimney, amid the flashing
of lightning, a little ballot-girl, named Rachel
■Wood, about six or seven years of age, chanced to
be standing at the edge of the stage behind the
scene, and beside the man who had the pyrotsohnlo
material for the productlon.of the flame.*By some
accident some .of the combustible stuff was thrown
on the girl, and her dress, of light gauze Instantly
took Are. Mrs. John D. Wood, and a member of
tbe Metropolitan stock, thoggh dressed also In bal
let costume, were near sit the time, and rushed to
the girl’s assistance. A moment sufficed to wrap
Mrs. Wood to a sheet of fiamcdfed before the Are
could be extinguished she hadVscelved frightful
Injury. In the meantime the audience rose ex
citedly to their feet, and would have heeome panic
stricken, had not Mrs. Myron (the fairy queen),
with presence of mind, remained on the stage and
notified the crowd that' the danger was past. The
injuries of tho little girl are on the arm and breast,
and were found to be comparatively slight, Mrs.
Wood, however,-is very seriously hurt. It seems
she Inhaled the Are, and her root very Is doubtful.

You oan’t sea him unless I know your business; I

A Bribe fbom the St. Albans Thievhs.—
Since Mr. Etheridge' has publicly paraded his un
enviable notoriety in tbe matter of bribing aservant
at the Execntlve Mansion, it appears upon Inquiry
that he has rather noted companionship in the dis
graceful business.
Some woekß since, a Mr. J. G. B. Houghton came
to Mr! Nicolay, the President’s private secretary,
with letters representing him to be a respectable
and worthy citizen of Canad%, who had urgent busi
ness with-the Executive. Binding ho.could not
readily reach the President without giving some
idea as to what it was, he stated enough to make It
apparent that It connected Itself with rite cases of
the St. Albans raiders; upon which he was in
formed that he oonld have no Interview with the
President, bnt must bring his application before the
Secretary of State, whose espealal duty lt-wae to
)!«ar and consider all business from citizens of for
eign countries with this Government.
But Honghton, who happened to be the agent or
attorney, or something of the kind, of the St. Al
bans oriminals, conscious that lair and open trans
actions would not avail him In his efforts to shield
his employees or principals from' the punishment
due their guilt, also resorted to bribery, and gave
O'Leary, the servant, a five-dollar.gold piece (pro
bably one of the Identical ones stolen from the St.
Albans bank) to assist him to an Interview with the
President. The servant ushered him to the Presi
dent’s presence; but Houghton gained nothing by
the manoeuvre, as tho President again politely sent
him to the Secretary of State as the proper officer to
answer snob requests as hebrought.— Washingtin

speech of the bhfbhob.
Paris, Wednesday, Feb. 18.
The session of the French Legislature was opened
at I o’clock this day by the Emperor, who delivered
the follpwing speech:
“ Messieurs us SC-naleurs, Messieurs Us Deputes:
“At the period of yonr last assembling I enter
tained the nope, that the difficulties which threat
ened the peaoe of Europe would have been obviated
by a Congress.
“ This has not been the ease. ,1 regret it; for the
sword often cuts questions without settling them;
and the only basis of. a durable peaoe Is the satis
faction given by the agreement of tho sovereigns to
the true interests of nations.
“In presence of the conflict whleh has arisen on
the shoreß of the Baltic, my Government, divided
between Its sympathies for Denmark and its good
will towards Germany, has maintained the moat
strict neutrality. Called to a conference to utter
its opinion, it restricted itself.to upholding the prin
ciple of nationalities and the rlgnt of the popula
tions to be consulted as .regards their fate.
“,Onr language, conformable to the reserved at
titude which we meant to maintain, has been mo
derate' and friendly towards both parties.
“ In Central Europe the action of Franee hod to
he displayed with greater resolution. It was my wish
, to render possible the solntlon.of a difficult problem.
The convention of the 16th of September, disen
tangled irom passionate Interpretations, consecrates
two great principles—the firm establishment of the
new Kingdom of Italy, and the Independence of the
Holy see. The provisional and precarious state of
affairs which exolted so mnoh alarm will soon ter
minate. It is no longer tho scattered members of
the Italian nation seeking to connect-themselves
by feeble finks, to a small State situated at the foot
of the AlpB; it is a great country which rises above
..local prejudice,despising the ebullitions of nnrefleot
lng agltatlons—which boldly transfers Us capital to
tlie’centre of the Peninsula, and places It in the
midst of the Appenlnes, as In an Impregnable clta
dol. By'this act ol patriotism Italy definitively oon
stitutes-hcrself, and at the same time reconciles her
self: with Catholicity. She engagesto respect tho
independence of the .Holy See—to protest the Iron- ■
tiers of the Roman States—and thus allows ns to
withdraw oar troops. The Pontifical territory, safely
guaranteed, finds Itself placed under the protection
of a treaty which solemnly binds the two Govern
ments, The convention, therefore, Is not a. weapon
of war, but a work of peace and reconciliation.:
“ In Mexico the new throne la being firmly esta
blished; the country 1b becoming pacified; its im
mense resources are being developed—the happy
result of the valor of our troops, of the common
sense of the Mexican population, and.of the intelli
gence andenergy of the sovereign,
" In Japan our fleet, aotlng ln concert with those
of England, of Holland, and of the United States,
has giverna new proof of what It oan do.
•“In Africa a sadden Insurrection has disturbed
the safetyof our possessions, and shows how much
certain tribes are still Ignorant of our power and of
our!benevolent Intentions. It is at the very mo
ment when; .by a spirit of generous .justice, France
assured the property of the soli to the Arab popu
lation;: when by liberal measures we were endea
voring to make that misguided people understand
that, far from oppressing it, we wished to call It to
the blessings of civilization—lt Is at this moment,
I say, that, led astray by religions fanaticism,
the'Arabs, neighbors of the Desert, have raised
the:standard of revolt. Despite the difficulties
of the ground and the Inclemency of the season
our| army, ably commanded, soon got the upper
band of the Insurrection, and after the oombat no
sanguinary reprisals or needless severity have sad
dened.tqe victory. The zeal of the experienced
chief placed at the head of Algeria, the unity at
.command re-established, the belief In the generous'
Intentions of France—all will, I trust, concur to
prevent a recurrence of similar disorders. Thus,
all bur expeditions are nearly terminated. Oar
land troops have .evacuated China; the fleet suf-'
ficos to maintain our establishments In Ooehln-
Ohlna: onr -army In Africa Is to bo"reduced: that
of Mexicd Is already returning to France: the gar
rison at Rome will soon be withdrawn; and, aiming
the -Temple of "War, we may with pride inscribe
upon a new triumphal arch these words: ‘To the
glory of the French armies, for the vlotories achiev
ed In Europe, in Asia, In Africa, In Spain, and In
America.’
“ Lei ns give ourselves up without anxiety to the'
•labors ofpeace. The Interval between the sessions
Is devoted to discover the means for increasing the
moral and material welfare of the people, and every
.usefaland true Idea ls sure to be welcomed by me
and adopted by yon.
“Let ns,.then,examine together the- measures
suited to Increase the prosperity of the Empire.
Rellgloa and public instruction are the constant
objects of my thoughts.- All confesßlonß enjoy the
same liberty. The Catholic clergy exercises, even
beyond Its ministry, a legitimate lnfinence. By the .
laws on instruction It assists, in the education of
youth ;jby the electoral'law it may tako part Jn the
public councils; by the Constitution It sits lathe
-s enate; But the more we surround ItWith respect
and deference the more do we reokon that It will
respeotthe fundamental laws of tho State. It Is
my dutr to maintain Intact the rights of the oivU
power, which, since the days of St. Louis, no sove
reign Is France has ever abandoned,
“ The development of pnhlio instruction deserves
your attention. In a land of universal suffrage
every citizen ought to know how to read and write.
A project of law will be presented to you still more
to promote primary Instruction. -
“ I esdeavor every year to diminish, the obataoles
which lave so long imposed themselves In France to
the fret expansion of individual enterprise. By the
, lawmptn coalitions, voted last year, those who work,.
as weilas those who employ, have learnt to- settle
thefc differences wlthbut reokbnlng upb# .the Infer,

the ivajying connection between supply and demand.
At prejent. fresh projects s wlU have the -.object of
leayinr greater liberty to commercial associations,
amffrtelßg tbe Administration fromarospcfisiSiiity
always illusory. I hate it at heart to destroy all
the obstacles which opposed the Creation of societies
destined to improve the condition of the working
elassee.' In promising the establishment of these
societies, without abandoning the guarantees for
publtc reourlty, we shall facilitate a useful experi
ment. The Council of State has studied with care a
law tending to give greater powers tojjhe Municipal
Councils and Councils General; W. .
“The Communes and the Departments win thus
bo called upon to transact their own affairs, which,
decided upon the spot; will be more promptly set
tled. This reform will'eomplete 'the arrangements
made to simplify or suppress minute regulations
whiolgnnnecessarUy oompiioated the wheels of the
Administration. ■
“Free trade, inaugurated by the treaty with
England, has been extended to cur relations with
Germany, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom of
Sweden and Korway. The same principles ought
naturally to be applied to maritime commerce. A
bill is under preparation to establish on the seas a
competition that will engender progress. Finally; -
the rapid Completion of our railway system, of our
canals, of our roads, Is the obligatory complement
of' commercial Improvements. We shall thlsyear
fulfil one portion of our task, by appealing-to
private enterpiise or • bfSemploytag on publle
works the resources-or the State, without com
promising the healthy economy of our finances,' and
without having recourse ,; to credit. The foollltyof
communication at home as well as abroad gives
impulse to trade, stimulates industry, and prevents
too great poaroity or superabundance of produce,
the effects of which aro equally hurtful both to con
sumption and production. The greater develop
ment that Is given to our merchant shipping, the
greater will be the fadUty.for transport, ana the
less reason will there be to complain of those sudden
changes to the price of goods of first necessity. It Is
thus that we shall be able to, meet the partial dis
tress which affects agriculture. Some attribute their
temporary suffering to the suppression of the gliding
scale; they forget that in 1851, when it was ln ex
istence, the depreciation of the price of cereals was
for more considerable, and that this very year the
export of wheat for exceeds the import. .
“It is, on the contrary, due to a liberal legisla
tion, to the impulse given to all the elements of na
tional wealth,-that-our foreign commerce, which
amounted to 1861 to 2 milliards 614 million francs,
has now risen to the prodigious sum of upwards of 7
milliards..
“ New MW will bo laid before you in another dt
reetion with the objeot of Increasing the guarantees
of Individual liberty. The first authorizes provi,
siosal release,.with or without bail, even in.crimi
nal cases; the second suppresses personal arrestin
civil and commercial matters—an innovation, how
ever, which is nothing but the re-enactment of a
very ancient principle. From the earliest ages of
Rome it had been determined that the property
and not the person of the debtor was responsible for
a debt. -
“Let us, therefore, continue to follow the course
marked out. Let us live abroad in peace with the
different Powers, and,let us not cause the voice of
France to be heard save for right and justice. At
home let us protect religious ideas without ceding
aught Of the -olvll power; let us spread education
throughout all classes of society; 'let us simplify,
without destroying, our admirable administrative
system; let us give the Commune and the Depart
ment a more independent existence; let ns arouse
individual enterprise and,the spirit of association;
lastly, let us elevate the soul and strengthen the
body of the nation. But, while making ourselves
the ardent promoters of useful reforms, let us firmly
maintain the bases of the Constitution; let us op
pose the exaggerated tendencies of those who pro
voke changes with the sole object of Bapplng that
which we have founded. An Utopia is to welfora
what illusion is to trjith, and progress is not the
realization of a more or less ingenious theory, but
the application of the results of experience, hal
lowed by time and. accepted by public opinion.”

The lax law under which the revenue is now col
lected exempts all national securities from municipal,
State, and national taxation. Under the former law,
the bonds of tbe Government were subject to a tax equal
to about one-balf that imposed upon other bonds. The
Income, however,,from national securities mustbe
counted in the aggregate of Income from other source*,
and be subject to a tax where that income amounts to
over *6OO. The only distinction that is nowmade'in

Hr. Bolllns, acting Commissioner of Internal Bevo
nne, has decided that “all Bonds Issued by State,
county, city, or town officers, for State, county, city,
or town purposes, are exempt; as are all official instru
ments executed by State, county, city, or town officers,
in the discharge of their official capacity.'.’
Counterfeit fractional currency of the denomination
of2scentsi*setting Into circulation to an extontthat
is likely to prove not cnly troublesome, bat expensive
topeisonsof smaUmeans, who are the moetlikelyto
he imposed on. A mere glance at the counterfeit ie
sufficient to detect Jf.ir the following points are noticed;
The words “United States,” on the face of the hUls in
either upper corner, are very indictlnct,hardly legible,
indeed. The same is true of the steamboats in left
hand lower comer, and the packages*! goods’in lower
It ft- band corner. But the point moat readily observed
on the face of the bUI is that the .whole groundwork Is
shaded, while in the genuine; ou the right-hand side,
underneath the smoke rising to.the right of the figures
23, is a space of white paper. On the reyeree, every*
thing is indistinct—lettering, stars on the shield, etc.
. The Illinois Legislature recently passed a law order*
ing the par diem of the members to be paid in gold; hut
when they appeared before the State Treasurer and de
manded coin", that official Informed them that by a-pre*
Vlous l&w the specie In the treasury had been ordered
to he set aside for the payment of the interest onster*
Ungi bonds, and that he was, under that act, prohibited
from üßing it for any other purpose. Host of the mem*
bers, therefore, were, will ing that greenbacks should
he substituted; hut some refused to receive their pay,
and declared their intention to apply to the Supreme ‘
Court for a mandamus to compel the Treasurer to pay
them In gold.

The Shoe and Leather Reporter says:
Trade for the week seems very quiet, and the bright
anticipations of some who hoped business for the shoe
dealers would spring out of the dry goods trade sa'os.
eeem destined to disappointment. There is very little
callfor any kind of staple goods, the Call beingforfanoy
styles for summer wear. There axe only two ot three
buyers in the market, and only a limited quantity of
orders are received. The prices of webs, lasting*, and ■
other findings of this c ! ass are considerably lower, eym-"
pathiring with the feU in gold; and these facte may
weaken selling rates of shoes. Leather will scarcely
sell at all, bat a, dealfra know thTOToSnotloa to hln
bees somewhat limited, they are unwillingto tower the
prices at present. The greater portion of the manufac
turers are doing very little, except on orders, and the
shoe towns in the State present rather a doll appear*
