ALLIANOH OP UNITED STATES RUSSIA AND FRANOH. RATIFIED BY THE SENATE In Oaee of War We Wilt be Supported by Two rent Navies Will Bngrlttnd Dare Objeot ? HE special Washington dlpatfb.es to the Now York papers yesterday contained nows of the highest International moment; nows which will arouse Intense interest lu every Enrotieau capital and which will exert n pro- found Influence ever tho destinies of the Woatorn Hemisphere. This Is the first an nouncement that ,iu agreement has tteen ratified by which the Monroe doctrine, which guarantees tho suprem.iuy of tho United States in tho New World, Is to be onfonwJ, if necessity arises, by all the power of Ituwla and of Franco. In return for tho Trench and I'u.'slan oxtradttlon treaties, which have been approved by the United Status Semite, tho two great powers whose frienilslp for the United States has become traditional have hound themselves to support this country in tho aswrtioa of the right of Americans to rulo Ameilcft without iuterforeoeo from European governments. Oor:cliakoir, the greateat of Russian Chancellors, declared that an aUiance be tween the United State, Trance and Russia was "m-oeWKiry for Iho universal equilibrium of uati ins." Such an alliance has now been formed. vIt iloes not rntanglo tho Unittd States in complicatioiu of war or politics in tho Old World. It does secure t this Re public absolute freedom in working out its manifest destiny within tho limits of this hemisphere ; destiny which demands the annexation of Hawaii, of Canada, of Cuba, and perhaps of San Domiugo ; wiicli must result in the gradual expulsion of hostile !uroieu influences and tho peaceful recognition of tho United State as the natural head and the legitimate guardian of all tho peoples of America. Brltssli fortresses at Kingston, Sau Luch, Bermuda, Halifax and Esqiiimault, bristle with -tfto most destructive modern artillery and menace both Hie1 Atlantic and the Paeiflo seiAoard of tho United States. They will bo reduced to comparative iusignificanco if in resisting British aggression thi3 nation can count on tho active assistance of Frauee and Russia, with their iuvle3 of moro than soveu hun dred vessels and their armies of more than 7,000,000 trained soldiers. The extradition treaty with France .pro vides simply for tho oxtridition of French embezzlers and swindlers, who havo hitherto been safe from punishment on Americau soil. Tho treaty with Russia providos that the United States shall not he an asylum for Rus sian subjects who may bo guilty in tlie future of tho actual or attempted murder of the Czjr or any member ofitho reigning family. Asa safeguard against injustice to refugees, tho treaty alto provides that in every cate whore a Russian subject is arrested in this country on tho charge of attemi ts against the life of the Caar ormombersof his family, his guilt must be proved to tho sti isfaction of a United Statescourt befoie his extradition is permitted. Russia has been the firm friend of the United Stales since tho time when the Empress Githerlne, by joining tho League of Neutrals, compelletl the British King to recognize tho independence of the thirteen colonies. Tho first Alexander defied the mandates of Napjleon, and refused to load tho power of Rusu to the attempt of the Corsican couriueror to destroy American com meree; the Moond Aloxauder, when the fate of this nation trembled in the balauae.announced that the recognition of the Southern Con fedoracy by England and Napoleon 111. would lie considered equivalent to u declara tion of hostilities against Russia, nnd dis patched Russian fleets to New York and San Francisco with orders to their commanders to place their forces at the disposal of Abraham Lincoln in ease of such an event. Hut for tho generous and unwavering aid of France, the American Revolution might havo had a very different isue. Our debt to tho nation that lent us her lleets, her soldiers and her credit, that gave ns Lafayette and supported the cause of tho slrurgling colonists against the foremost power of Europe, can never bo forgotten. France is to-day a republic, and it is not strange that her sympathise are with tho Republican government of the United States. The ratification of the treaties which for tify the Monroe doctrino with tho strength of .'ranco and Russia.is a signal achievement of American statesmanship. It adds one moro to the notable list of diplomatic triumphs duo to the foroiight, energy and patriotism of the Harrison Administration, USE DANA'S SAIiSAPARILLA, its "THE KIND THAT CURES." ru- the Laillen.

O'foyle pr aobe on the Pub lic School System and Snys It Has Bnemies, IIURCIt goers we're treated to two sermons of sp eel a 1 patriotic teachings at two of tho loonl churches last evening one by Rev. Robert O'Boj le, at the Trinity Heforoiul church, the fourth of his sermons to young men, nnd tho other by Rev. Havlco, at the English Lutheran church. Tho former had "Our Public Schools," for his subject and tho latter took, the "Life of Abraham Lincoln." Rev. O'lloylo took his text from the fourth oh.iplor of St. Paul's book to the Oalatlans, 16th verse "But it is good to bo zealously af fcccil always in u good thing." Tho public sohool system is a good thing, the pastor said, and we should hold on to it. Wc, as citizens of a common country, should strive to main tain thnl glorious Institution which was established by our forefathers, which had its birth in the colonial days, snd which is the foundation of ono of tho grandest govern ments on the (aee if tho otirtli. The sermon was not a lengthy ono, but so timed that tho leading points of tho ditcoureo wero ably and sufficiently brought out. The discourse embraced three divisions, the aim the scope and the iuiluenco of tho public school system. The system, Rev. O'lloylo said, is distinctly American. Wo may not havo the universi ties of which tho European countries boist, but a comparison ol those countries with America shows tho great advantages of our our public school system, which educates the masses. This country is distinctly peculiar and .its educitioiul system is peculiar. In this coun try wc havo no union of church and state and we cannot ho too thankful for that We havo a free church and a Irco state The church looks after tho education of the heart and picpares. citiaenship for heaven, tho state looks after tho education of the mind and molds citizenship for this land. It's education makes good and useful citizens. A Democratic Republic basid upon universal suffrage of the peoplo depends upon the in telligence of tho people, and for that reason tho stato has n noble object in viow in estab lishing and maintaining the public school systoio. The scope of the system is to educate tho young, regardless of nationality, color, race, language, or creed. It moans to o lueate the sons and daughteis ot" the rich as well those of tho poor; it means to educate the itoman catholic children as well as those of Proleetauts; and no distinction made. Its bcopo is universal and if we interfere with it we interfere with the system itolf we weaken it. Tho influence of the public school system has been such that it has made America the beacon light of the world among nation. But that system has an enemy and the enemy is such that if it could it would destroy every school house in this land. Why? Became tho enemy claims the publio schools of our land are godless. They say "wo believe in education as you do, but the schools are gidless, They do uot teach Christianity." They do not teach Catholicism, but they U teaeh true christiaur.y aud develop the heart and mind in tho child that make it u noble aud uiefrtl man or woman. Years ago tho bible was read in the public schools; our enemies told us that it was showinu partiality; we weakened aud put the bible out; now they toll us the schools are godless. rutttici blbleiu ! Jsjtbereamoregrauder essay than the sermon on the mount by Christ ? Return them all the Lord's prayer, the sermon on the mount and tho teachings of the Bilh chapter of Corinthians "And now abideth taith, hope, charily, these three, but the greatest of these is charity." Rev. O'Boyle exhorted his Iliteuers to stand by the publio school system and see that only Ood-fearing people are put in charge of them. In closing tho sermon ho said there arc rumors of bartering in connection with the public schools. "Men who will barter the system," said he, "I put on the same plane with Benediot Arnold, or any other man who would sell and betray a causo of freedom. Here is your opportunity; here is tho test; will you be meu among men aud citizens among cltlcous. Yon have a good thing in tho public school system. Keep it. In the largo attendance in Rev. O'Boyle's church there were many peoplo who are connected w th jHiblio sohool work, but are not regular attendants at the church. Rev llinice also had a number of special attend ants at his ohuroh, Including members of Watkin Waters Post, No. 11(1. (. A.
