RIOTS NOT CONFINED TO THE SOUTH
ANOTHER ANTI-RENT WAR IMMINENT.
Murderous work bas again commenced
in Rensselaer County, the scene of many
anti-rent broils years ago. It appears
that a sheriff and posse were fired upon
by a farmer, on whose goods the officer
attempted to levy, for non-payment of
rent. The sheriff was mortally, and
three of his posse seriously, wounded.
This is bloody work, at a time when the
cry of "Let us have peace" prevails over
the land-especially in the North. But
the laws mnst be vindicated, and the
Governor will, no doubt, take prompt
measures to see thattbey are, in the case
of this violent and murderous resistance
to the Sheriff of the County of Rensse?
laer, while in the performance of his of?
ficial duty.-New York Herald.
THE LAST OF THE IRISH CHURCH BILL.
Her Most Graoious Majesty Queen Vic?
toria hos signed the bill, which hos
passed both Houses of Parliament, and
which disestablishes and disendows the
Irish Protestant Church establishment.
The terrible bill is now law. Wo must
now wait to see whether or no the Irish
people will be satisfied. Wo muoh fear
that Queen Victoria or her heirs will
havo to sign many more such bills be?
fore our friends of the green isle will
say "enough." Gladstone, Bright and
Lowe have, however, done well. They
have work still before them; but they
have given proof that they know how to
do it. If Pat keeps nt it Johnny Bull will
do moro for him. He cun't help it.

THE OPHTHALMOS.-This new instru?
ment, for taking photographie views of
scenery, is attracting great attention in
England. It consists of a oamera, pro?
vided with mechanical contrivances for
automatically uncovering and covering
tho lens and exposing the plate. The
ophthalmos, or "eye," is attached to a
small balloon, and is sent up without au
operator, and at any required height, it
is asserted, takes a pioture of the surface
of the earth beneath it, with all the bear?
ings of the oompass accurately marked.
A few days ago, a tall, lank specimen
of a man walked iuto a store in San An?
tonio and asked to boshowu some shirts.
A number of boxes were taken down for
his inspection, and one attracting his eye
more than the others, ho asked what kiud
they were. The clerk answered, "they
are tho Royal Eagle shirt, sir." "The
Loyal League shirt! the devil! I fit for
the Confederacy, I did," and the indig?
nant customer walked out of the store.

AM ??Utorlc?I Coluetrtcncc.
Wo bare long boon aware that every?
thing that ia really good and admirable
in tho institutions of this country bad
its origin in Massachusetts, and has de?
scended to us from the loins of the pil?
grim fathers. We have long known, for
we have been often told, that they are
the founders, that Plymouth rook is the
oornsr-stone of the republic, that Fa
neuil Hall is the ark and the cradle of
oar liberton, and that the revolution of
1776 was fought and won at Banker Hill;
but we did not know until ex-Governor
Bu Hook enlightened our ignorance, of
the remarkable historical coincidence
furnished by the landing of the French
cable at Duxbury. At a dinner given to
General Dix, in Paris, on the 1st of
Jone, ex-Governor Bullock was present.
Of course, he made a speech. In that
speech he alluded to the near approach
to completion of the French cable, and
glorified Massachusetts in this wise:
"Tho steamer," said the ex-Governor,
"is soon about to start which shall carry
to our shores the only cable actually
joining Europe with the United States.
And yon will pardou me if, with a local
pride, I take to heart what I have read
during my present stay in Paris, the act
of the government of my own State of
Massachusetts, the only sovereignty that
could confor the boon granting the right
to land this electric messenger of com?
merce and amity upon the coast of Cape
Cod, by the same waters which, 230
years back, furnished auchorago to that
famous little bark that bore in its cabin
tho Constitution of the futuro republic."
We pass by tho treasonable States
rights heresy of the ex-Governor in
speaking of the "sovereignty" of Mas?
sachusetts, for which ho has been pro?
perly rebuked by some of the radical
press. What we desire especially to note
is the important fact that the Constitu?
tion of tho United States was broughl
over in tho cabin of the Mayflower. Wi
had supposed, until the ex-Governoi
corrected our mistake, that the Constitn
tion was framed at Philadelphia, in 1787,
by a convention, over wbioh Georgi
Washington, a deputy from Virginia
presided, and of which Alexander Ha
milton, Benjamin Franklin and Jame:
Madison were members, and that thes<
eminent persons actually had something
to do with tho preparation of the instru
ment to which they appended their sig
natures. It seems that we havo been ii
error, and that the Constitution was par
of the freight of "that famous littl
bark which 250 years ago" dropped an
ebor in Plymouth Bay. Wo beliov
there is nothing else in the way of na
tionnl history left for Massachusetts t
; appropriate, unless it be reserved fo
some future ex-Governor to make th
discovery that Christopher Columbi!
was a Cape Cod fisherman.

A POLITICAL PUZZLE.-The Norther
radicals continue to be sorely perplexe
over tho Virginia election. They are t
a loss to know what to mako of it, c
what it really means. Such a mixtui
was never seen before. View the crei
ture on one side, it is Republican, but
Democratic hoof sticks out. On tl
other it is Democratic, but, lo and bi
hold! the head is Republican. Whi
can the political nondescript be?
asked on all sides, and most of the sag?
have delivered their opinions, all qua!
fled with an "if," and consequently n
satisfactory, even to themselves. The
ic no doubt of this fact, viz: That Repu
lican principles triumphed, but theu tl
trouble is, the Democrats did the votin
Universal radicalism cries out, who w
lead us into the light of tho great nij
tery?
In this dilemma of our Republic
friends we may not be able to come st
ce8sfully to the rescue, but we may
least shed a small ray of light on t
question, which may eventually magu?
into a general illumination. And,
vouchsafing this service, wo shall folli
the example of Mr. Lincoln, and teli
"little story," of which tho situation ht
pens to remind us:
A distinguished Georgia politick
still living, in tho good old days
Whiggery and Democracy, was fame
for tho hard blows that he dealt tho I
mocrats as a public speaker in ev<
recurring campaign. No man npproai
ed him on the stump, and his reputat:
for swaying the multitnde whilo ho l
speaking was unrivaled. All his e
qnence, though, was lost at the po
Election after election was carried by
Democrats, until the case looked hopel
and all efforts vain. Standing at a sti
corner, one day, directly after one
these disastrous contests, and discuss
tho result, over whioh he was very sc
with a party of neighbors, be grav
wouud up ns follows: "Well, boys,
no usa to fight th? infernal crew i
longer, for no iniquity we may pr
upon them seems to do them any ba
But there is one way in which we we
beat 'em, d-n 'em, let us jin? 'em."
It is hardly necessary to allude to
sequel. Our orator did join the Dei
crats, and the result is history.

A DISCOVERY.-Wo learn that the
workmen, in over-hauling tho old fort at
St. Augustine, Florida, discovered seve-.

which contained a long iron upright box,
and a human skeleton iu irons. Ic is
supposed these were refractory Spnuisb

who wore incarcerated in these sweat
boxes and left there to die huudreds of
years ago.
JUDGE DENT IN MISSISSIPPI.-The ra?
dicals, including the colored folks of
Mississippi, are working vigorously to
rule Judge Dent off the track as tho libe?
ral aud independent Republican candi?
date for Governor of Mississippi. In?
deed, his case is reduced to this proposi?
tion: Is he, or is he not, tho candidate
of Gen. Grant? The liberals say ho is;
the radicals say he is not; and so it de?
volves upon Gou. Grant to speak aud
settle the question.-New York Herald.
Tho water of Salt Lake is so dense
that a man cannot sink in it. The editor
of thc Corrinne Reporter demonstrated
this by standing upright in the water,
and without tho least motion, could not
sink to the chin. He could lie on the
water, stand in it, take ul most any posi?
tion, and still he would float and could
not sink. It is necessary, after swim?
ming in this briny water, to wrinse off
with fresh, for the salt of tho water con?
denses on one's person, and leaves one,
when dry, looking as if he had been pow?
dered all over with white chalk.
The New York Herald says the ques?
tion is in a nut-shell and thus pots it:
"Shall Virginia and the other recon?
structed States be accepted with the fulfil?
ment of the conditions of Congress,
including the fifteenth nmoudment, or
shall those States still be kept out in the
cold by an intolerant radical faction be?
cause elections do uot please thom, thus
hazarding the fifteenth amendment? In
other words, is it impartial suffrage or
only party ascendancy in the South that
is wanted by this insolent radicnl fac?
tion? The question calls for a settle?
ment from General Graut. Delay upon
it is full of mischief to his administra?
tion."
THE SUEZ CANAL.-Tho New York
Herald thioWs that iu the completion of
the Suez canal a splendid future now
seems possible for the ancient land of the
Nile, and if its rulers aro granted good
sense, and the European powers are not
foolishly jealous of each other, there is
no good reason why that future should
not be realized. It refers to the past
history of this interesting country, and
the commercial value always accorded it
by all the great rulers, from Alexander
downward. It says tho trade of the
Mediterranean has increased mightily
since the railroad was opened, some years
ago, and Egypt has increased in wealth
and importance, becoming again tho
highway to India, and the cities of the
Mediterranean coast aro sharing the
benefit ns of old. But, it says, useful as
the railroad is, it wants the Suez canal,
and that opened, the nncient country
will soon assume somewhat of its former
importance. It does not wonder that the
Sultan has become jealous of his vassal,
for Ismail Pacha is already, in the eyes
of Europe and America, a more important
personage than his master. It surmises,
if the Viceroy plays his cards well, he
may .not only soon be an independent
prince, but ho may soon have many
cities, any one of which will bc more im?
portant than Constantinople. It adds:
The wealth of "Ormns and of Iud"
seeking the European market, and the
manufactures of Europe seeking the
commercial emporiums of Asia, must
needs pass through his territory. No
other way will bo thought of, because no
j other way will pay. Alexandria, i?i a few
years, will double her population. It
will not bo otherwise with Cairo. New
cities will spring up all along tho lino of
the canal. Egypt, which requires but
atteution aud care to be made once more
ono of tho gardens of the world, will
blossom aud rejoice on every side. As
we have said already, Ismail Pacha bus
the cards in his hands, if he knows how
to use them. His personal sucoess or
failure is of the less importance, that
Egypt will have become the object of the
world's attention nnd care. Sho must go
on. It is now no longer au impossibility
that, with Egypt for its contre, a new and
mighty empire should arise in the East.
It may be the privilege of mauy now liv?
ing to witness the realization of the
dreams, tho ambitions, the struggles of
I forty centuries.
