The benkfils which tho rifle range at Creed
tnoor has con fernel upon thc National Gmrd
havo been gnat. J he intci-cst of niilitiamen
in riilc practice u constantly on thc increase.,
and their efficiency is greater from year to
year. For these- advantages tho .National
I Ii flo Association is largely responsible. It
owns tho Creedmoor range, but circumstances
have so adjusted themselves that it cannot bear
tho burdon longer without embarrassment.
Uenoo it is proposed to turn tho range over to
tho Htatc; tho association only reserving thc
right to occupy it for ono week each year
during its annual meeting. The expense to
tho Slate of maintaining the tango would not
bo great; tho resulting benefit would certainly
outw-'igh this. The subject is entitled to
thoughtful consideration
The Trim*xi:'s special cable dispatch to?
day is of uncommon importance. Upon author
ily v liidi he regards as excellent, our London
correspondent gives an outlino of thc pio
gramino which the Government will uinlniako
to carry through at tho coming session cf Par?
liament. Tho programme comprises four
principal features. A local government bill,
very democratic in character, will be brought
in at the opening of tho session and will be
heartily supported bj every member of tho
Government, including Mr. Goschen. New and
stringent rules of procedure, will bc proposed,
whereby closure (or the previous question) may
bo ordered by a majority vote, and whereby,
also, debate on a pending question shall be
terminated at midnight and a vote taken.
Theso changes aro ladical and will compel
the minority to devise new measures of ob?
struction. A bill for the government of Lon?
don as four separate municipalities has also
boen prepared. Finally, Mr. llalfour's policy
and methods aro to be approved unqualifiedly,
and coercion is to bc pronounced a success.
Tho Government's policy is certainly interest?
ing, and tho session promises to bo an ani?
mated ono. One of their aims, of course, is to
prevent an appeal to the country on tho Irish
policy. How long thoy can succ-cd in doing
this >cmains to bo shown.
THE " UOIYL TO THE CONTRARY."
Mr. Mills seems discouraged. After months
of labor by tho Treasury Depnitment? said by
tho Treasury Department to havo been
wonderfully able, exhaustive and thorough
labor?a bill was prepared which embodied tho
plans of tho President, tho Secretary, tho
-.peaker, and his chosen leader of thc House.
Mr. Mills. Then more than a month wa*
wasted while Mr. Carlisle labored to arrange its
committees, tho point of chief anxiety, during
all that month's paralysis of public business,
being to pack tho Committee on W'.iys and
Means so that it would start tho Administra?
tion's tariff bill with a strong backing. Finally,
almost another month luis been wasted in
secret efforts to get tho picked members of the
committee to ngreo upon something. And now
Mr. Mills sadly confesses: "Tho gnat
stumbling-block in our way is the wool ques?
tion. . . It is difficult] to say how far the
committee will go on that subject. . . But
it is a question in my mind whether any bill
will be able to run tho gauntlet of the present
Congress." If that is so. why waste months
of (he time which ought to be spent in much
needed legislation ? Why agitate the whole
country, and embarrass all trade and industry,
by a desperate attempt to do Bomething, when
it is very doubtful whether Congress ian be
gol to do anything, and when, if anything ran
be done, il would probably not be satisfactory
to any of the members engaged in thc work?
Mr. Mill* avows his belief that free wool
would be a blessing, "in spite of thc howl io
tho contrary.'' Tho "howl to the contrary"
has made itself heard, then, even in dark-lan?
tern meetings of the picked iiistiuinonus of
tho Administration. Apparently lome men
were selected ns members of the committee
who thought they were for tho President's plan
when they were appointed, but who have since
been hearing from their constituents. Other?
wise Mr. Mills would not be in doubt how far
tho committee would RO, at this late day. and
trould not manifest Impatience about thc " bowl
to the contrary." Tho wool-growe:s and oilier
fain,"rs. and the defenders of protection gen?
erally, may well find encouragement in the
confession lhat the voice of the people is bert ni,
and that it does not help the President's plans.
Mr. Mills doubts whether any bill will po_u
t!,'' House, lt is ii good (bing that be bas
'...ked up. though tardily, to a realization of
the fact. Mr. Morrison used to bring in his
free-trade bills, and then be certain they were
going to pass eventually until aboul a month
or six weeks after they bad been defeated.
possibly Mr. Mills may be capable of discover?
ing a little earlier that his cause is hopeless|
that the people are against him. and that mem?
bers of Congress do not dare to defy their w ill.
_\t all events, it is good to keep Up the fitei
without ceasing, and to pour in petitions, r<
monstranccs and resolutions, until the enemy
puits and runs.
MR CARLISLE HAHN ED.
Mr. Carlisle and his friends are warned by
" The Herald" that it will be most unwise for
them to persist in refusing to open the case of
Mr. Thobe and to examine into its mei its.
This is but an early expression of the -.pinion
which will prevail with candid men of both
parties, iiiid throughout the country. "The
lld aid" says : " His duty to himself and to his
pally is at once, at the earliest mo?
ment, to demand and insist thal tlie disputed
election case in which he is a party be re?
opened." It continues, tliat, '' he cannot afford
to get himself seated in ihe House by the votes
of bis party alone") that all the Republicans
except four want thc case considered on Its
merita, and thai their demand cannot be re?
fused by Mr. Carlisle without placing him in a
position that be will afterward regret. This
sound advice, given before the vote on Monday
affirming his right to a seat, is in striking
contrast with the less honest and less manly
treatment of the qneation bj other Mugwump
journals, and is just as good now as it was
before that vole was taken. If he is wise, he
will refuse to let the matter rest where it is.
The question for the country is whether
Mr. Carlisle Ol Mr. Thobe was, in (act, the
choice of tho legally qualified voters in the
Vlth District of Kentucky. By rigid adherence
to narrow precedents, In B sirici partisan spirit,
tho Democratic majority of the House bas
power to refuse ii. consider the question at ail,
because through bad faith of Others Mr. Thobe
failed to make up the record as it should have
been made. It may seem lo these gentlemen
that the tase oi Mr. Carlisle is one thai justifies
the utmost use of technical advantages, because
he is a Speaker personally l. spoiled by Repub
Iic'ins in Congie--, is | man of large inlluence
in his party, baa great taftaence in the House.
and thus, it is reasoned, can influence some
Republicans 11 refrain from opposing his claims
to a seat '1 hese are adroit cab ulaliois. from
a party politician's point of view. Hut they
ignore the one duty which rests upon ev, rv
uk-inber of tho House, and whieh the country
will not forget. If Mr. Carllslo was not bon
CStly elected by a majority of the legal voters
then every member who helps to keep hin. in
his seat contributes to an act of lobbeiy. )!??
wrongs tho pr-opie of tho VI th District of Ken?
tucky, but that ls not all. Ho wrongs snd robs
tha people of every district in the land, who
havo a right to be represented, not in their
own districts only, but in every other, by men
honestly chosen by the people.
If Mr. Carlisle thinks it worth while to insist
that Republicans aro making a point on his
case for partisan advantage, he is entirely wel?
come. The beginning of the matter is lhat he
and his fi lends do not dare to have lin i-ues
tion investigated on it- merits. Why, the
country does not know. The reason is best
known to them. They fl.*- th's in a spirit of
partisanship never SM passed for shamelessness.
lt was a most indecent thing to (house as
Speaker a man of whose election by ibo people
lhere was hones, doubt The indecency is not
diminished in the least by the contrivance
adopted for selecting tho Committee on Klec
ti? ns Kvenbody knows tho power of tho
Speaker, through his discretion in recognising
one member tallier than ani'ther, and his right
ti select members for tho winking committees
of the House, lt is notorious tha* Mr. Carlisle
uses his power without flinching for the benefit
of his party. Republican members must bo
expected to reason that he will usc it not less
for tho rewaid of those who favor and thc
punishment of those who opposo his claims to
a seat.
This gross indecency of tho Democratic ma?
jority, in making Mr. Carlisle Speaker and then
refusing to examine thc caso against him on its
merits, has abundantly justified Republicans
of tho House in their course. What they havo
done ______ public, attention upon the facts in
the caso. Thc merits nf thc contest cannot b.
examined honestly and fairly, as Republicans
maintain they ought to be, because Mr. Car?
lisle and his party friends obstinately and im?
pudently refuse to Inquire whether the man
they havo elected Speaker was honestly en?
titled to a seat in the House. If Democrats
think they can afford to face tho workingmen
and tho whole people on that stato of facts,
Republicans are ready.
BRIDGING THE HUDSON.
Our esteemed contemporary, ?' Tho Sun," en?
tertained its readers on Sunday with the details
of several schemes, fantastic and otherwise,
by which a passage is to bo effect cd in the
course of years across the Hudson River. Next
to the problem of rapid transit up and down
Kew-York City, none is of more pressing mo?
ment than that of how to escape the disadvan?
tages of its insular situation. Tho city has
grown so amazingly during tho last twenty
years, and its position with regard to thc com?
merce of the entire, continent has become so
indisputably pre-eminent, that it cannot much
longer content itself with the primitive ferry
and flat-boat as the only means of transporting
passengers and freight from and between New
England and the South. It is highly probable
that 40-000.000 tuns nf freight cross the Hud?
son c\f)\ year, and the number of passengers
who use the various ferries runs far up in the
millions, lt is astonishing ihat, the public has
so icng retained the ferryboat exclusively in
its service for this work
fi must obtain some better and quicker means
of transportation. The time now loaf ont of
every day hy people who use Niw-Jorsey to
sleep in but pursue their business occupations
here involves a great sacrifice. Thc cost of
goods shipped between the Routh and Wost
nnd New-England is considerably increased by
the delays and expenses incident lo their ship?
ment across this city. Travellers constantly
and justly (complain of the mi nova nee and
wasted time they BUffeS", aiul the limit of en?
durance must soon bo reached. "The Sun"
iisTfits that several syndicates are waiting
until they feel that the time is ripe before
springing upon the public a choice assortment
of bridges warranted to land their passengers
at almost any objective point of the Jeraey
shore. They are not going tn be satisfied with
?mo bridge
One of these schemes possesses many attrac?
tions, lt proposes a magnificent highway of
steel and slime tn lu- threw ti acfess the river
from Washington Heights to the Palisades,
it is tn lie connected by rail w iib all the West?
ern and .Southern railroads at a central depot
in Jersey City, with all the Northern ami New
England roads at a union depot in Morns,mia,
and with all the elevated lines tn this city at
their northern termini. Engineers have de?
monstrated the feasibility of tho plan, and its
great ntility to commerce and travel <:ti be
seen at a glance.
Enterprises of thi" sett move slowly to a
visible conclusion. They require vast outlays
fif money and aro the objects of eon.tant leg?
islative attention of the unworthy kind. Work
on tho Poughkeepsie bridge ls now- rapidly
pU-hed fp rward, and there is even probability
that it will soon he a completed fact There
is no reas.,M why it should interfere with the
Rehems to span the Hudson at a point that
would sorte th" necessities of this city, how?
ever much a bridge here would interfere with
it Tlie Blackwell's Island bridge, so len'.'
contemplated, is an mg' nt necessity. With
that rue! the one proposed over the Hudson at
Washington Heights in .peration, and with
viaduct roads running through the city up into
Westchester County, New-York would be in a
position tn extend and enlarge its business to
an incalculable degree If these improvements
were given us to-moriOW, they would n<>t he a
day in advance of the public neel, and w it li (.ut
them New-York's congested population works
under difficulties and discouragements (hat
greatly retard its proper progress.
ir//)' DIPLOMACY HAS FAILED.
"The Baltimore Sun" is known to be ibo
favorite oracle of the Estate Department. Any
explanations which it oilers for the failure of
tue fisheries negotiations have an official stamp.
When i's Washington correspondent discourses
of the mysterii ? of American diplomacy, every?
body knows that it has received, in common
phrase, "the straight lip" from Secretary
liayard and speaks by authority. It has tty

what it says Kecretary Bayard has instructed

A TL A V 7 A URI YE RS IT Y.
Professor Horace Ilumstead, of Atlanta Uni?
versity, last year Its uctinjr president and now
its financial Bgeal, hus come North, and ls at
present in New-York, foe the purpose of seourin.*
hs lurg, a past ns possiMs of the $I6,U00 which
the inst itu* lon is under tho necessity of nskln<
froin its friends in Bonsegnenes of the with?
drawal of the annual appropriation of $H,000 liy
the Staff* of Ooriria. The expsUSS of conduct
in"* tht* university is about $.12,000 a year. One
half of this is made up from tuition toes, tho
product* of student labor and miscellaneous
SOUIC-t- The State has hitherto appropriated
$8,000 for its benefit, and friends in tho. North
and elsewhere have contributed the remaining
$h,000. This year, and in all probability Ik Te?
arier, these friends must double their nubscrip
t ions.
Our rraders and all other jiersons interested in
the education of the colored noe will remember
that at the last session of the Georgia Lo_;isInture
a bill IthS Glenn billi was introduced and passed
by the House whieh, while necessarily f-cneral in
its phraseology, was aimed at the Atlanta Univer?
sity, making it a felony, with fine, imprisonment
nnd the chain-uans? in full view, to be engaged
directly or Indirectly in the instruction of both
white and colored pupils in the same school.
This measure aroused such a storm of execration

ure that the Senate thought lt wise to pass a
com punitively mild substitute, winch, however,
the House refused to accept. Tho result was
that, with a considerable feeling of relief tha
Legislatore passed and tho Governor stgnad what
were known ns the (.'alvin resolutions, withdraw?
ing the appropriation of ts,OOO unless the uni
vcisitv bliould use the monej exclusively for the
education of colored pupils. it was supposed
that the university would accept tho alternative;
hut the trustees determined to reject lt, for these
reaeons, among others, thai its __**oep_anee would
bo a \iolution of the conditions on which the in
st it ut ii >n hud received large -rifts, an act of infi?
delity to the purposes of tho founders, and a gen?
eral surre.dei of principle. The fact that white
and colored pupils had been taught side by sid"
had never furnished a decent basis for opposi?
tion from any point of .lew, for the white pupils
had been very tew In numbai and, with few ex
eeptiona, the children of tbs teachers. There
bini never been any concealment or evasion In tho
mutter; the mime conditions bud always existed,
and the -successive Stat.' Boards of Visitors,
whoso reports were invariably appreciative and
commendatory, had been perfectly BOqualnted
with the situation.
