The ■ failure of Senator Morton to have Brook* recognized ns the legal Gov ernor of Arkansas ha* gratified us, for ttnfgued to Orant that his isn't y vvere to ft certain extent, going back on him ; yet Grant has met with no jiosltive rebuke from his party. Con gress hasndjourned without speaking out in tones of earnest condemnation a gal ust the policy Grant pursued to wards Louisiana, that it might boa warning not to interfere in swell a manner during the recess. No doubt Grant will toko their silenoo as either an approval of his course or as a tacit consent for him to manage the Gov- ernmeut to suit himself. There ts only one little job that Grant and his party engineered through while the nation was dis tracted on Louisiana nnd Arkansas affairs. He made a full-fledged (state out of a barren Territory, and now Colorado sends two Senators to the rcsoue of the part y that transformed her into a State. There is material for several more such States in New Mexico, *or each day the nows comes of moro robberies and murders among her people. The muteriul is good enough for party purposes, if they will only consent to be used. Younw Wen's Christian Association. The recent convention of the Young Men’s Christian Association hold in Augusta, developed the great amount of good this organization is accom plishing in the cause of religion and morality. We had no idea thut the organization was so strong in num bers and their work so varied. It ap pears from tho reports furnished the convention, that at the present time there are 950 different Associations, and that they own property to the amount of $2,500,000. They keep con stantly employed, for tho exclusive work of the Association, seventy-five men in the capacity of General Secre taries. Each organization is entirely independent in the manner of devis ing its own means and plans for car rying on their Christian work. The Association has greatly Increased in Georgia during the past three years. The object of tho Association is to roach young men with-Christian in fluences, and in doing so, save many who havo no home or family associa tions. A surprising fact is that none of these associations havo become de nominational, but welcoming us active members all young men, no matter to what church their preferences in cline thorn. They have brought young men together socially, opened to their knock reading rooms tilled with pious associations and innocent, amusements; giving thorn the benefit of lectures, musical entertainments, and otherwise changing the young men with whom they come in con tact, into social and religious beings. This, however, is not all for which this noble association exists, tor un derlying is a steady effort to culmi nate their membership into a strong and perfect harmony with tiro church of God. It is a good work, and wo would liko to hear of a similar organization In ovory town in Georgia. Before tho war there was an association of this nature in Columbus, but it lias been dissolved, tho remnant of it holding together in weekly prayer meetings at the different churches. ■ ♦ Over Zealou* la the 4’au*<‘ ol lllsotry. Several days since we made editori al mention of the proposed impeach ment of a Mr. Thorne, of tho North Carolina Legislature, by that body, f on a religious test. Wo hardly thought the matter would go as far as it lias, but it is a fact that Mr. Thorne lias been expelled from the Houso on account of a pamphlet ho published, which is objectionable to many Christians. We never thought that such an act could bo committed outside of Massachusetts. Thorne was as moan a Radical uh ever dis graced any State, and was turned out by his brother rascals. Admitting Thorno guilty of writing such an ob jectionable pamphlet, wo would like to know what right the Legislature of North Carolina, or of any other State, Ims to inquire into tho religious belief of any or its members, or ar raign them for trial. Tho doctrine of our forefathers taught us that free dom of personal opinion, and religious belief, was tho palladium of Ameri can liberty, and the pillars of our government. No State in the Union ever burned witches but Mossaehu eetts, and now it is reserved for North Carolina to take tho lead In expelling men from government offices on ac count of their religion. ■ii i ■ hi. i... I l A hoveltx ifl the mode of hanging criminals was recently introduced at Newgate, England. Instead of erect ing the usual scaffold aboveground, a pit was dug in the soil, anil a trap door made level with the ground opening into the pit. Tho Convict was pinioned by the executioner on the top of the trap, and at a given Signal the drop foil, and tho unfortu tnato ceased to live. It is reported that Secretary Fish lias all along refused to settle the Tirgiuius matter with Spain, because ■the Spaniards persisted in valuing negroes lower than white men. They paid the English $2,500 for white vic tims, nnd $1,500 for negro victims. Grant and Fish thought a good healthy negro victim was worth more than that. A toiilcniiitllilc Ad. Tile expulsion of the young cadet, Gordon Claude, by the faculty of tho Naval Academy at Annapolis, for Ills refusal to fence with a colored cadet, was contemptible in the extreme. They knew full well that he was a Southern young man, reared in the South, with ull of his sectional ideas of social equality, and that to force him to come ou the social level with a ne gro was simply an insult to him. He had tlie manhood to refuse to bend himself to tills little meanness, and for it, they were cowardly enough to expel him. They reply that North ern youths make no such objection. We answer, tlie youth of tho North are differently educated, and the as sociation with the negro to them might be more congenial than to one of higher instincts and healthier so cial ideas. Tlio truth about the affair in question is, that it was a small at tempt upon the isn't of the Faculty, nnd some of their friends, to degrade a Southern boy; and in attempting it, they found his metal an over match for their meanness and hate. He is receiving the congratulations of his friends in the South, and they are be ■ ing censured at the North, and de- I spised at the South. There can be no question on the I unconstitutionnlity of such a pro j feeding; but the spirit that prompts it to much to be regretted, and if it jiervaded the country would bealnrm ing. When the Pilgrims sought refuge in this country, it was that they might J worship God in their own manner, j and according to the dictates of tlieir own belief. In this latter day of the nineteenth century, it is appalling to see men set aside on account of their faith. It is wrong upon principle, and does harm to the church. But there is a harm such a principle can do individuals and tho political world. If sueli a course as lias been pursued in North Carolina be right, or sanc tioned by law, why tlie necessity in our legislative bodies of contested elections? Why not some pious mem ber of tho majority rise and propose an expulsion because the objection able man is a Methodist, a Baptist, a Catholic, or a Jew, as the case may be? Such a test applied to represen tatives of tho people is wrong, and nothing even flavoring of bigotry was ever known, except in Now England, where their religion is worse thou tlieir politics. Between those members of the Georgia Legislature who wanted Joe Brown to monopolize tho convict labor of the State and those who didn’t, the solution of the important question as to the best means of dis posing of the constantly increasing penitentiary material wus defeated. After all, nothing is gained by delay. Our legislators will have to solve the problem some day, and it would have been far more graceful to have dis cussed tho question fully and fairly than to havo wasted time in chang ing lines ami granting licenses to ped dle.—,Vue.

Tuev have a good deal of wind in Holland, and tho people make a good deal of money out of it f There are 12,000 windmills in operation, each doing a six or ton-liorso power ser vice, through the twenty-four hours. These mills are kept up at ail annual cost of $4,000,000, and they perform all the service required of steam en gines at one-twentieth the cost. ■ VicToniA Woormmx is out in a card declaring in strong terms that neither tho plaintiff nor defendant in tho Beecher ease dare subpoena her. She alleges that she can throw light on the whole question which both par ties fear. A Dubuque boy was troubled for fear that he would not know his father when they both reached heaven, but his mother eased him by remarking; “All you’ll have to do is to look for an angel with a red nose on him.” It is said that Princess Beatrice, the youngest daughter of the Queen of England, is to bo united to tho Grand Duke of Baden, great-grand son of tin?

Twelve sculp tors are to be charged with the exe cution of the work.

MoEnory received 50:1 votes more than Sheridan’s majority over rinohback, and the inevitable infer ence from this showing, and from the seating of Sheridan by the House, is that MeEneryis not only Governor of Louisiana, but that Congress has known him to be the choice of the people all along, in spite of its inac tion ami the resolution maintaining Kellogg: GOVERNOR.

Old politicians admit that there never has been better parliamentary strategy than that exhibited by the minority in lighting the Force bill. The grand object was to delay the passage of the measure so long that j it could bo easily beaten in the Sen ate. This tho opposition succeeded | in doing, although they were in a j small minority, and were supposed j to be gagged by u rulo prepared by the Radicals for just, such emergen-1 cies. Cessna and Butler’s rule was ! prepared and adopted several weeks j ago, and the whole Radical crowd | was serene in the idea that they could . BIDE ROUGHSHOD over their opponents. Yet the in- 1 stunt the arrogant majority came in ! with the infamous Force bill, the skilled and stubborn leaders of the j opposition developed now tactics, and practically beat the stupefied lubbers who were in such heavy numerical | preponderance on the other side, j Tlie majority expected to have the bill wheeled through, so that, it could be read in the Senate by Thursday. Tills, with the longest possible delavs permitted in the latter house, would have made the measure available for final consideration by Saturday; and it would then have been impossible for tho Democrats of the Senate to have talked four days 'and nights on a stretch, and the infamy might have BECOME A LAW. Tho superior strategy and adhe siveness of the House minority has prevented all this. Instead of reach ing a final vote by Thursday, the Radicals, iu spite of squirming, curs ing and the application of what they imagined to be a perfect gag-rule, were held on until after midnight of Saturday. Hour after hour, for sev eral days in succession, tlioy imag ined they were, just at the goal of t heir fierce partisan desires, only to be aggravated by Randall and Beck with some totally unexpected move. "It was tike a gigantic game of chess,” said a member of the diplo matic corps, who had followed the affair from beginning to end. THE SUCCESS of the minority and its leaders in this j great struggle may lie imagined, j when it is known tlieir tact, energy and persistency have won the praise or all prominent politicians of both parties. Morton said to-night that, the Dem oerats had so managed the Force bill that there was no use trying to do anything with it in the Senate. Gen. Forrest, of the late Confeder ate army, made a speech ut Mtildon, Tenn., on the 4th inst., in which he is reported to have said that ho “be lieved there would bo another war, and his policy would be to raise tho black flag, with the skull and cross bones on it, and not leave a Republi can, white or black, alive in the State.” We are, inclined to disbelieve this report; but we have no doubt that Gen. Forrest is capable, like many other white leaguers, not only of entertaining, but of giving utter ance to, exactly such sentiments. While they are hot calculated to in crease his popularity in the North, or to do anything except to revive un pleasant memories of his career dur ing the war, it is probable that they would serve to recommend him ns li leader to the white malcontents of the South.

There are scores of ap plicants for the position of “financial agent under tho recent resolution of the Legislature.

After bidding you adieu, wo got on board tho train bound for Savan nab, and arrived safe and well next morning, at good breakfast hour. At 11 o’clock wo went aboard that popu lar steamer “Sun Jacinto,” Captain Ilazzard, Commander; shortly after we out loose from our mooring and headed for the briny deep. The ship was well laden, and about one hun dred passengers besides the crew of the steamer “Life Brigade,” which was wrecked off the Bahama banks, Florida, and those of the ship “Can terbury,” which was burned at tho mouthjof tho Savannah river. Among the notables were, Dr. Newton, of grange notoriety, and the belle of the boat was little Miss Marie E. L. Bitiglev, of New York, who enlivened us with many beautiful songs. The first two days at sen was very pleas ant, at about midnight on the third day a north-easter set in with wind and rain, and a heavy sea rolling. We all began to wish we were at home; few made their appearance at breakfast next morning. During the day the storm increased and nearly all the passengers concluded that they ought to contribute something to the little fishes; Dr. Newton led off beat ifully; toward evening I found ! that the passengers were feeding the | little fishes so liberally that it would be selfishness In me not to contribute a little also. You know we never get sea-sick, but we have the consolation of knowing that we bountifully sup plied the little fishes in the wake of our vessel, for an hour or more. We arrived in New York about ~ix hours inter than our calculations. Snow and ice in abundance; snow is now falling. What a contrast from the balmy climate I loft, a few days since. The merchants of this city have laid in large and beautiful stocks for tlie Spring trade. We visited several of the leading houses, among them A. T. Stewart & Cos.; Evans, Beak & Cos., and Wm. H. Lyon & Cos. The finest stock of hats, straw goods, etc., I found at Kingsbury, Abbott & Hu lett’s, 554 Broadway. They are busy as bees, filling orders for tlie South. The theatres are in full blast, with crowded houses. The hotels begin to show signs of life, by the constant arrivals from the Soutli and West.
