The victory attained after fltuhboro fight?
ing at Baa d'Urgcl may prove encouraging
for the time being to th? Government at
Madrid, wliich ha? shown its desperate situa?
tion hy ordering a levy of 100,000 men, and
authorizing an increase in the puhlic deht.
More decisive sihtcsscs, however, will be needed
in the Northern Provinces and in Cuba to
inspire confidence abroad in the permanency of
the Alfonsist Monarchy.
All three of the political parties into which
the voters of Oregon an? divided?Republican,
Democratic, and Independent?have now met
and proclaimed their principles. The platforms
do not seem to ditter materially on practical
questions of nation;)] interest, except timt tlie
lb-publicans record tlieir approval of the Ad?
ministration of President Urant and the Inde?
pendents favor the repeal of the net donliling
Um President's salary. It is interesting to note
as indicative of tlie drift of public sentiment
on tlie Pacific coast, that Republicans, Inde?
pendents, and Peinocnils of Oregon, as well
us of California, are united in favor of an
early return lo the use of hard money.
The ill-fated valley of Mill River, in Massa?
chusetts, seems to have narrowly ('.-.raped
another devastation by Hood. This time, how?
ever, the trouble is not to be BMrlbad to the
faulty construction of a dam. Heavy and fre?
quent rains have swollen the streams in Mas?
sachusetts, as in other States, until prop?
erty has been destroyed and life im?
periled. From all sides come .reporta
of greater or less disaster by the ri?ing of
rivers and other accompaniments of iec?iit
storms. In N'ew-Jersey on Wednesday a tor?
nado wrought great disaster, and in this city
and BrookDn much discomfort was caused
yesterday by the heaviest rainfall of the
season.
The Tammany (?encrai Committee last even?
ing approved the rcorg.-iiiiz.itinn of the 'I hird,
Eleventh, and Fifteenth Districts. There was
very little opposition, and it appeared
as if Mr. Marriaaej had overrated his
strength in the Committee. If the debate
with John ?Kelly which he proposed had
taken place he would havo had
a very slender following, if we may judge
from the result of this meeting. Mr. Kelly
sjxilv?- some good words concerning honest
government and pun legislation which will
?minuend thcinselvcs much more to thoughtful
citizens than the expressions of the Commit?
tee and of Mr. Kelly himself in denunciation
of the redaction ol the laborers' waged.
Th*- mysterious Republican at whom 7V?c
Troy 'lillies was aiming its shadowy bolts has
been materialized at the (ill of a TiiniiNi:
reportar. He proves to be Controller Hopkins,
and the trouble i.? all ulxtiit the payment of
the award for the Baxter steam canal boat.
The Controller could not pay the money to Bax?
ter because then- was no appropriation. Baxter
?ihsigned it. and the aaaigaca was able to get
it paid in three weeltS. Blieb ia believed to
lie the story which the President of the Com?
pany told to the Canal Commission. The out?
lines of it have been matter of gossip at
Albany for months past, and the Meada of
the Controller*?If they are able to dispose of
it ?will be glad to have it at last dragged
fairly into the light.
In Mr. Win. Welsh's (?pen letter to Presi?
dent Grant on the subject of Iranda and cor
rujilioii in the Interior Department, he ha?
talttii paina to procure testimony from the
records in vindication of the character of Mr.
Samuel Walker, who, tis Secretary of the first
Indian Coiiinii??ion, BMJoted in exposing the
frauds of tin? Indian Hing, und was conse?
quently attacked in the most brutal manner
by the King organs. Mi. Welsh charges the
authorship of these libels upon Secretary
Delano and Assistant Secretary Cowell, and
a?ks the President to do Mr. Walker justice
by dismissing his a-sailants from otlice. Mr.
Welsh ail?!s io the chargea against Delano one
of willfully making a false report concerning
Um amount of stock subscribed t?> the North?
ern Pacific Poad. It is a very courteous oom
munication, but the writer has not thought it
neceasar? to nippten facts or conceal his own
opiiiion?. S? irel.iry Del;.no seems to have
business enough on hand to last him ?ill
Sommer. _
Mr. Orton writes a manly letter coniirtiing
the Western lnioii reports. Ile is not in any
coniliiiiation with Ja;. Could, or anybody else,
to upset the pre?ent management of the Com?
pany, has not received any propositions lor the
purchase of the Atlantic and Pacific which
could be considered, but does think that the
Western Union needs some ol thOM lin?'.?, and
leaves it to be inferred that it is likely to get
them. Wa are, sorry that the last part of the
letter is not is satisfactory as the first.
Financial men do not think the interest of the
West?ni Union likely tobe promoted by adver?
tising that it stands ready to buy up every
ii val whenever the rivalry becomea trouble
some. Certainly ii is boc ta the interest
of the public thal rivalry should cease. The
active competition of the Atlantic ami Pacific
has thus far been a source of great benefit to
the public, since) it Baa largely i ((lined rates
and improved the servid! between tin hading
seaboard enies. If the Direct Cable should be
Mice? ssiul, the advantage to tin- public would
be vastly gi? ?ter. The pnlilic interest demanda
strenuous opposition to the proposed consoli?
dation, and wo anspart the real inten -t of the
Western I'nion demands it too.
ONE (IF MU. 1)1.1. AS 's OffICIAL DOCU?
MENTS,
The Department of the Interior is sending
to clergymen and other persona in various
parts of the country, a Public Document in
pamphlet form, hearing the, frank of the Rev.
J. G. Ames, who is a clerk in the Department
and a son-in-law of Mr. Delano. The pamphlet
is entitled "Documents relating to the Charges
"of Professai U. C. Marsh of Fraud ami Mi?
" manag? ment at the Ped Cloud AgCHCY,"
and it makes the singularly impudent pre?
tense of Uing "printed for the use
" of the Investigating Committee." It
contains, in the way of documents,
the (ifiicial letters of appointment and loot ruc?
tion to the Committee ; the Report of Samuel
Walker to Mr. Brunot's Board of Indian Com?
missioners, which wo have already printed ;
tin- ('Hi)iUT Deport of Bishop Hare, Mr. F. II. I
Smith ami other?, the point? of which per
linent to the present inquiry we have also
published ?u full; and that is siilnstuntially all. !
Thal is all, we mean, of a "documentary'1
character| Ihc introductory matt? r, prepared
by an uiionynioua hand which wo would
not for worldi inspect to be the hand
of Secretary Delano himself, 1? the
principal part of the pamphlet and (ho Bole
reason for it* existence. Mr. Delano Is greatly
troubled in mind hy ** tho extraordinary efforts
" of The New-York Tribink to give pub
" lirity to the charge! of Prof. Marsh," and
disgusted that the Professor's letter to the
President should have first seen the light
through the medium of thin journal, which?
ns the Secretary ought ta) know hy this time?
is usually very prompt in printing all news of
public importance. It i.-i hard? to say whether
he is more incensed at the Professor for writ?
ing the letter, or at The TmBOSI for giving
it circulation ; but we believe he entertains a
profound contemn! for na l?oth.
It is hardly worth while to waste much time
in correcling the falsehoods of this Public
Document. The Tkibine had nntliini?- lo do
directly or indirectly willi the preparation or
instigation of th.-) charges; if did not print
them before they were sent to tho Presid? ii!,
but the day after; it ii not ti no that Prof.
Marsh waited ?six months after his return
from ?bt Indian country before making the
complaints of Red Cloud public. These things
ave trilles; it is of ?onie coiisoiiience however
that when a private gentleman of Ugh char?
acter, in his zeal for the purity of the public
service and his kind feeling towards the In?
dians, makes a respectful and in every way
proper report to the President of facis
which caine under his personal observutinn.
the (.overiniient printing press is immediately
called into iciiuiisitinii to abuse liini, and a de?
famatory at tink lijMtn him is spread all over
the country, with the frank of the Interior De?
partment. "Of 1'rof. Maish," says Mr. Delfin??,
"the "writer know.-. t?H lillie, ?tin! that lUltalall
** mainly of information faints!, ?ince hi bc
"caine Hie ostensible author of corfain ?harires
"against the Bed Cloud Indian Agent He is
"a professor at Yale College, which institii
" tion received some endowment from the late
" Mr. Georg?- P.abody, who was a relation ol'
"the professor, and w!iifh endow inc.'.t was
" probably intended to advance his interest!."
Thal is probably ob? of the noaJ vulgar exhi?
bitions of ignorance ?nid insolence that ever
appeared in an American Public Dominent?
which is sayiiii,' a great deal. Hut Mr. Delano
docs not stop lhere. Ile accuses Hie Professor
Of insincerity, and ends by declaim?- thal all
th? charges of which lie ti " ostensibly" the
author, were in reality u manufactured *? hy
The Tnnn ni:, " ia oriel to ne-ttn an object
'' it has long souj/lit to obtain, namely, the
" injury of the Secretary of th" Interior."
Mr. Delano has too high an idea of his own
consequence. It is not every niau who is im?
portant enough to inspire I great newspaper
with the m?relent ?hit personal ?niiinoMl ? which
he imagines we entertain towanls him ; and
though we have a pretty mean opinion of
him, we -should certain!,* have a much meaner
opinion of ourselves if we wasfed time,
trouble, and energy in doing him injuries
an?! li ia in t? a profcs-oi- in Yale College to help
n in the Satanic work. In common with the
majority of Americans, however, we hate Pings,
especially sanctimonious Kings, ami believe this
isa very good time to get rid ??I them.
MICBAEL SOLAN'S PROFESSIONAL I'ltlV
ll.l.t.L.
Whatever other people ni iv do, Mr. Michael
Kolan manifestly intends t?? maintain the
dignity of the legal profession, and not allow
its privilege! to be cicroaehttl apon, lie is a
member of thal profession. As ? membei ol
the profession he is understood to be standing
at ihis inoincnt OB his reserved righls, and
pel-istenlly re f ii.?in.-- <o disclose to ?i coiiiiiiit
tee of the Legislature the dispoaition he ruade
of a little matter of over one hundred thousand
dollars traced into his pos-n-ssion, ?is paid
him by certain iteamahip companies, to
procure legislation in their inicies!. Nolan
has taken considerable time to make up his
ininti on this subject, but having made it np
he is linn. N??t that he wishes to withhold
information from the Committee. Far be it
from Nolan to keep back a fact except upon
the very highest gi.?mid of professional honor
and from the prol'minde?! sense of what is
(lue lo preceden!. With great respect for th?.
Coiiiniiitec lie declined to produce the bank
(hecks which would show what had been done
with the one hundred and odd thousand dollar.?.
''My reason," nid Michael Nolan, willi an
abounding t*onscitiniaea?l in Ins manner that
in him sacred PTOfeavdooal privilege was about
to be assaulted and time-honored precedent
attacked?"my reason is ?hal 1 think ii would
"be a bad precedent if the Committee should
" examine into allans which ?,io p?rrate."
Spuken like Michael Nolan and like a lobby
ist. Answers like this nie on n-conl in ?t
hundred investigations?perhaps a thousand.
Then ?nu hardly ever an impiiry, Congres?
sional or Legislative, into a piece of lobbying
that smelt of bribery, in which Bont? ornament
to his profession, like Michael Nolan, did ,,ot
fall ba< k on prof?-is-ional privilege and piecc
?lt nt.
Mr. Nolan, n*s)ii being informed that the
Committee would get .ii Ute infttniivition
.??ought la some other way. meekly answered
that he colild not help it ; and again ;i?siue?|
the Committee that he had taken this position
! purely H a niattei of principle, from which be
would not badge. The Committee BmnrieatJng
a disposition to intern ?ira te lum fnrihi-r on the
subject of his di-biirseinciiis, tin. gentii-mcii
availed himself again of professional privi?
lege by nfttaing to-?'ive anv further testimony
until his eoiinsi 1 rettiincil from Calif-unia,
whither lie .seems io have departed at about

" There'.?, a principle in this matHf' says Mi,
Michael Nolan. "It would be a bad precedent,
" I think, for the Committee to impiiic into
"affairs which are private." Ah, indeed! And
what is the principle, pray, in receiving one
hundred tliou.?.ni?l dollars for procuring the
passage of a special net to which (hen- was
no opposition, and which was inver (?isciissed f

ARK WE A NATlONt
It lins usually been supposed that we are.
Newspapers have been christened upon the
strength of that supposition, and hanks and
b?tela. Then there is the flag?if it bo not the
proud bann'r of a nation, what is it the en?
sign off If the Stain and Stripes are not em?
blems of a nation, what means the constellation
and what the gridiron 1 Do the F.mbassadors
Extraordinary and Ministers Plenipotentiary
abroad represent a nation, and if not, what
do they represent I When we cheerfully speak
of ourselves as Americans, do we merely mean
that we are "staying" upon the Continent of
Aim licit Mr. Bock, the sturdy Kentucky
Congressman, recently ?aid: "Yes, gentlemen,
" there is that contemptible word tuition?a
" word which no good Democrat uses when he
"can find any other, and, when forced to use
" it, utters in disgust. This is BO nation. We.
" aro free and independent States.'' To the
opinion of Mr. Beck we op|?ose the opinion
of one Alexander Hamilton : "If a BUBB
" her of political societies enter into a larger
"political sociefy, the laws which the latter
"may enact, pursuant to the powell intrusted
"to it by the Constitution, must necessarily
" 1m' supreme over these societies, and the in
" (lividuals of whom thev BIB composed. It
" would otherwise lie a mem treaty, depend
"cut BOOB the good faith ol' pal ties, and no1 a
"government ; which is only another word
" for political power and supremacy." The
battle of the Rebellion was fought, blood was
shed, money made ducks and drakes of, just to
get these truths established ; and when a gen?
tleman tells you thal Kentucky or Massachu?
setts, mauger its relation to the General Gov
eriinient, ia a free and independent Stale, he
inal.'s a iiii?statenieiit which if pushed to its
legitimate conclusion, will degenerate into a
muddle and eventually into another "muas.*1
Every well-iaformed boy know? that there are
Bevela] things which, linder the Constitution,
States are not "free" to do, and that
as to various matters, judicial or com?
mercial, they are um " iiulepeiiileiit." Ad

If Kentucky or Massachusetts arc not com?
ponent parts of a nation, then each is indi
viilually a nation?a state of things in which
the word would very probably booOBM more
" i'otilciiipt?ile" than it now is in the Opinion
of Mr. Beck. Moreover tim word "nation"
Implies both individuality and community, the
?aggregation of separate states ami peoples
?linier a common sovereignty, and is therefore
precisely th?? word s/Urb wc need.
Nobody can be more sensitive than we ap?
to the slightest invasion of the reserved rights
of (he Slates. Nor have wo marked tlie tend
eiicv to consolidation in the General Govern?
ment without regret. This tendency, inevita?
ble perhaps under the ciri'iiinstaiicis, is the
bitterest fruit ol' the Kcliellioii. In the una?
voidable work of self-preservation tlie (bin ral
Government went to the extreme limits of its
constitutional authority, even if it did not
sometimes transcend than ; and one reason
why we have been so anxious for the abate?
ment of old grudges and the subsidence of
rebellious prijudicc and passion has Imcii be
Cause wc would nut give the Washington au?
thorities the least pretext for au extreme ex?
ercise of power. It appears to ns that those
who are continually cning out for Slat?- Rights
and Slat*- Independence are doing their liest
to extinguish these Rights and that Independ?
ence forever? We should like to have an hon?
est ami economical government of the whole
nation, but we havae no particular ?lesire for a
strong one, though it should be strong enough
to maintain order at home and leaped abroad.
A not her rebellion might give us three or four
nations?a chain?' which ought not to be agree?
able to Mr. Beek, who linds even one so un?
palatable.
SOUTH EES SVMMF.R UFSOIITS.
Among the descriptions of watering-plaoeo
which till the column.? of the newspapers, we
call especial attention to those in tie South.
They commend themselves to ?mr explorers
into new social and natural regions for several
reasons, chief among which is that they are
almost unknown io the present generation of
Vu! ?terners. The days when the New-York
belle a id Philadelphia Una-blooded lawyer
um do .vu lo the While Sulphur or Berkeley
in August nid mingled with the Pees, Mar?
shalls, ('abell?, and Paytens were ended and for?
gotten IB the war. A new generation has arisen
on either side that knows not Joseph or his
ways. The old intercourse may bava seemed
a tiivi.il Matter; there were a few week,
pleasant dallying al the Springs; (hen the
Northern visitor nine times in ten was driven
from tin in in a great family carriage with bays
and OUtridera to some hospitable Virginia man?
sion and passed from one plantation to another
until he grew to believe the world lay
vviihin the blay cultured genial life
about h'in. and that every Page or
Marshall was his coaafal as they were
cousins of each other, lu Winter the Virginia
or Candial Colonel and his pretty, rose-tinted
girls caine up to New-York and Boston, and
wen guests in their turn. Probably a wed?
ding ended the story. All trilles, no doubt ;
society matten on winch practical men or re?
formen look down with contempt. Yet it was
precisely th?' brotherhood of feeling begotten
li? this kindly intercourse which made ii bo
?lilli?nit for practical men to bring on the war.
The war has come. Its great ob'ect is ae
coin|)li.sh"(l. Now let us bring, if we can, the
quiet, couatless influences of s???'i?ii life to hide
the ghastly sear. Yawning graves are not cov?
ered by any force half so well as by th<- mil?
lion springing bluies of grass, de friendly
touches of untiring Nature. The Virginia
Sinnig? ?ne as COO) as before, and the resort
of as cultured and more intelligent men and
Women. The hills of the Blue Ridge are tilled
just now willi game and young hunters and
tisheiineii from the South, in whom our boys will
lind gallant and friendly o uni,ide.?. The Warm
Splines in North Carolina nestled in the
iiioiiiit.iiiis otter a landscape singularly resem?
bling the picturesque beauty of Ftps, and are
Ireipu nti'd by the best people of Alabama omi
Louisiana ; the North Carolina mountains,
almost unexplored, far surpass any on this
side of (he .Mississippi ?n grandeur ami hight. I
There are (pniint towns along (he seaboard,
drowsy little village? among the hills, and in
all of them tuen and women of the same kind
of birth, education, and feeling as our own ;
our kinsfolk, estranged simply liecausc we do
nut know euch other.
There has been a large enough emigration
of carpet-bugger? and swindling politicians to
tiie South. Pet some bollol able we!1 bn-d
people, who hardly know how to upend their
bummer holiday go down and enjoy them?
selves among thoroughly honorahlo and well
bred people. They may not know that they
are missionaries, but they will be, and suc?
cessful ones too.
