The story which camo - from -Manitoba, yestor- dny, of Indian Clicfs polsonod by Amerionn trodors, who wero in their turn killed by the beroaved tribo, is to-day pronounced untruo by = dispatch {n the Toronto Globe. — President Grant celobratod tho 1st of May by ‘moving back to bis old Lomo in Galons, wharo he will hold a reception hoxt Friday evening.

Humboldt believed that thero was no momont st which an earthquake was not oceurring at somo point of tho earth's surface, and, as tho tolograph carries its cireuits into every quarter of tha globo, wo got more and moro ovidencoe of tho truth of the theory.

An adjournoed sossion of ti ogislature is to bo held, beginning Jau, 6. The rosolution of the Senate to this effect passed the Houso by the scant majority of two. As tho votes wero first cast, the rosolution was defeatod ; but the same tactics wore employed hore a8 in Congross in the solary-grab, and mombers who had voted against the bl only to save appoarances changed thelr votes in numbers sufficiont to eave it. Bismarck bas corried his bill for the training and rogulation of tho clergy through the Uppor Houso of tho Diet. This measure will proves powerful blow in the contest which tho groat Chanoellor is waging with the Church, and in which ho has already succoeded in ban- {shing tho Jesuits and transforring tho suporin- tendenco of tho schools from ecclesiastical to civil hands. His last stop is designed, as ho stated in his spoech baforo the Diet o weok ago, to putan end to the domiueering assumptions of tho priesthood. Some imposing inaugural coromonies took place yosterduy on tho spot whore the Viouna Exposition was to have been May 1. No less an authority than the Emporor of Austria doclared that tho Exposition was thero and was opon, but from tho statoments of the dispatchos it is ovidont that tho Exposition will not reach Vienns for a month or two. Most of it soems to bo still on tho road. Among other tardy arriv- als will bo 7,000 dray-londs of articles which hnve not yot reached the Prater, and can bo re- coived and unlondod at the rate of only twonty a day. Warmoth's counsel, in asking the Bupremo Court to allow an appesl from Judge Durell's decision, noglectod to fila any papers to pustain their application. On this account the Court has postponed the consid- eration of their motion until the fall term, and, if the opinion of the Supreme Court Bar is eorrect and is correctly reported, will not be anxious thon to discuss tho matter, au thoy would much prefor that Congress act upon it »y » political quostion, and take it out of tho flold >¢ judicial docision.

Theso roso- lutions (publishod in full yestorday) declaro : 1. 'That the Coustitution of 1870 is, in all its parts, tho supromo law of tho Stato, and tho Log- vlulrmm: should at onco ennact the laws necessary to exeouto tho provisions in regard to railroads, 9, That tho chartors of rallronds in this Stato aro not eontrncts in the scnso that thoy are par- amount to the Constitution and laws of Ilinols, sronot repugnant to the Coustitution of tho United States. £ 8. That tho .rallronds aro highways and tho companios common carrlors, and tho Logislaturo should pass lawa ostablishing roasonnble maxi- itve and unchanged. Whoeat waé moder mum rates for transportation, and such logisla- tion should bo sustained and enforced by tho ju- diciary of tho Stato. P 4 That they would support mo man for Judgo of tho Suprome Court who doos not agreo with theso resolntions. . B, That the judgment of tho SBupreme Courd and tho punishmont of. coutompt in tho caso of the Chicsgo Journal is a violation of tho prin- ciplo of froo government, &c. g Having adopted theso resolutiona by the voto named, the Convention nominated tho Hon. A. M. Craig, of Knoxville, notwithatanding his writton declaration that ho wos not o candidate and would not accept if nominatod. What we wish particularly to call attontion to 18 tho fact that tho majority of this Convention have undortaken to dooide questions of consti- tutional law which have perploxed the most pro- found lawyors that have appeared at tho Bar orhavo sat on tho Bench in this country. The Convention hins permitted no differonce of opin- ion, no question as to the oxtont of its decision ; & nbeolutely decides thnt railroad charlors aro contraots, tho obligation of whioh ean bo im- paired by legislation, aud that no part of the Constitution of tho Btate is in conflict with the Constitution of tuo United Btates. Upon thoso points the Convention declares tho law, aud in- siats that no man shall bo Judge who will not, bofore his election, announco that Lo will main- tnin that the decision of the Convention is right. ‘Tho Convention furthor resolved that tho Legis- laturo should pass laws ostablishing roasonablo moximum rates for transportation, and such 1bgislation should bo uphold and enforced by the courts, Tho lattor part of this rosolution has no meaning unless it ba that, whatover ratos the Logislature may onact, tho courts shall hold to bo roasonablo nnd just, purcly becanse so declsred by tho act of the Logislature. What is a roasonable chargo is o question of fact to bo detormined by tho circumstances, and, whother tho Logislaturo enact that 1 cont per milo per ton for freight aud 1 cent per mile for passongors bo o renson- ablo rate for their transportation, or that the railronds may chargo 10 centa & mile for each passonger and for cach ton of froight, the quos- tion of tho reasonablonoss of tho charge is in nowiso changed, Tho Legislaturo cannot alter facts; it canno more make nn unrensonable charge logal than it can make a roasonable ono {llogal. Norcan this be done by convention or town mooting. It can only bo dotermined by o court and jury upon hearing the whole faots and ciroumstances of each caso. But - this Convontion have declared that whatever ratos the Legislaturo may prescribo shall bo held to boroasonnble, and that the courts shall onforce their collection, thereby committing tho piblic intoreats to the moro dis- crotion of a majorityin tho Logislature, and throwing away tho great power of the courts, which iy the only cortain protection ageinst tho corruption of logislative bodies. The Logisla- turo that fixos rates one day may change them tho noxt. The Leglslaturo that allows 8 centa milo for passongors to-day may give legislative sanction to G conts to-morrow, and the Judge colectod undor tho Princoton platform will bo roquired to uphold tho Legislature, Of all things elso, tho ostablishment of logislative dlscrotion, in the place of courts and juries, is the most dangorous expediont, Nino-tenths of the ovils which distross aud harass businoss and clog the wheols of trado and production are tho rosult of loglslation; thero is mnot a monopoly or any othor institution arrayed against common right and common oquality that isnot tho crosture of logislation. Logislation is the abomination of tho times. To eroct the Logislaturo of this or any othor Statens the sole arbitor of public and poraonsl rights, would bo toseloot o dospot whoso whole career is marked by fraud, dlshonesty, corruption, and de- flanco of publio right, Tho Princoton Conven- tion has rosolved that it must hovo o Judge of the Buprome Court who will sit with tied hands, and declaro tlat whatovor tho Loglelature doos s right, aud must be the law. Wocan imagine no vesult so ploasing to tho railrond corporations, and to monopolies Kaonorally, as tho adoption of the principle that no court shall overrulo an aoct of the Legislature, and that decrces of tho lattor body aro final and nabsolate. Alonopolios can deal moro succossful- convontions for the prinolples of law 180 most hazardous oxperlmont, and to have courts of Infy pronounce Judgments founded upon tho resolutions of tho convention that nominated the Judges would be dostructive of all rospoot for cowrts. If evory Judge to bo oloctod this yonr in Tilinois is to tako with him to tho Bonoh tho platform of tho oconvoution thnt nominated him, snd to daclde all quostions undor the dictatlon of that platform, thon tho judiciary of tho Btate will sink below tho lovel of tho mnost degraded Jus- tice of tho Penco courts that over disgraced this and othor larga citios. It is sufMoiont to eay that Judge Lawrenco was not nominated by the Princeton Convention, and the Iilinois provisions relating to rallronds | ly with logislative bodies than with courts, 'We do not proposo to dlscuss whothor the do- cislons of the Princeton Convention on ques- tions of conutitutional law are right or not. Ihat {8 n question for tho courts, ‘The mistake of tho Princoton Convention {8 in making tho Judge doecido, bofore Lis elootion, casos which aro to bo tried by him nftor his oloction, If n Judge should bo roquired to pledge himsolf that when oloctod ho shall, in & caso before him botwoon euitors, docide sgaingt ono of thom, without referenco to his convictions of juatioo and Inw, what faith or confidonce can be placed in such a Judge that he will not vio- Into that plodgo as roadily au violate Lis oath of offica? To demand of a Judge such a pledge Is & confossion that the man who makoes it ia not to Do trusted as a Judge, To make such a plodge 16 » oonfosslon of tho unfitness of the porson making If fox Judge, To substituto tho plate nor waa his name pormitted to be progented to it, Tho gontloman who wos named wroto B poremptory rofusal to bo a candidato, and do- olared that if nominated hao would not accopt. Ho {8 rospectod mombor of the Bar, and doubt- loss has too high n rogard for tho charactor of the offico of Judgo of tho Supromo Court to evon accopt an oleotion with his action as a Judgo alroady doflned and marked out for him by s convontlon, Judiclal honors under such clr- onmstancos would be galling to any respectablo and high-mindod man who is fittod for tho placo atall. DEATH OF JAMES BROOKS, Tho moral of tho death of Jamon Brooks is too useful to the American peoplo of to-day to bo passed over in silonco, Thero is n highor law than that which las beon orystalized in tho motto, De mortuts nil nisi bonum.” Tho ron- timont would Lavo its propor placo in the an- coatral worship practived among tho Chineso, and may aoct aa 6 usoful restraint in private lifo, whaore the departed leave bohind thom friends to mourn tho doath, and whore tholr faults dio with tho body. Butit noeds no argument to do- moustrato that the rulo would bo hurtful if thero was no oxcoption whon applied to public lito and public mon. Whon o man has thrown away groat opportunities, when ho has violated public trusts, whon ho has loft [0 world worso than he found it by roason of his exmmplo, it is unfit that nought but pratso should follow Lim to the gravo, aud that his living faults should bo paesed over in silonco. It is not for his surviv- ore to puss judgmont upon Jamos Brooks, it is true, Wo have no desire to do this, nor noed- lessly to spoak in unkind words of the man who paid donr penance for the orror of his life be- fore ho gavo it up. Thero is hardly & man in this country who has boon g0 uniformly succesaful in contemporane- ous politics ns tho late James Brooks. Ho sooms to have boen n favored son of fortuno {from tho vory bogiuning of his careor. Inearly life bo fonnd kind friends and admirers who lont Lim that holping hand for tho lack of which many & botter man hns spont his lifo in toilsomo obscurity. Mo was born in the early part of tho presont century, wns o collogo gradu- sto, and was ndmittod at an early age to practico attho Bar. e ontered upon journslism almost immedintely, and at o time whon journalism had begun to shape itsolf into o profossion. 1lo had tho ndvantage of a residenco at the Capital ina nowspapor capacity, and of o trip to Europo as a newspaper corrospondent. ITe was cleoted to tho Maino Logislature when only 25 yoars of ago, and thus beeamo associntod with politics at & time of lifo which onabled him to mastor its mystorios and becomo an ndept in its work- ings. He onlarged his fleld soon after by romoving to New York City, whoro, with tho assistanco that Lad. always boon roady for his advancoment, ho oatablished the New York Express, which, for many years, has Dboon ono of the most profituble nowspapors in the country, Ho secured,n leading position in tho politics of the Btato, sorved in tho Legisla- ture aud the Constitutional Convention, and then was sent to Congress. Eight times, in all, was ho returned to bis seat in Congross, Mean- while, o hard-working brothor remained nt tho editorial post in Now York, claiming nono of the Thonors of the position,and ateadily Lolding tho Journal in its oven courso of prosperity. James Brooks ncquired weslth aloug with distinction. Ho was able to take his rocreation in a tour around the world, was held in esteom by his own party, whotler Whig, Xnow-Nothing, or Domo- crat, aud never tho subjoct of contumely from his opponents, Personally, Lo was a tall, bonovolont- looking man, of mild mauner, polite address, and in overy way calculated to secure tha popu~ larity that actually awaited him in life. It will bo admitted that to such a man, with surroundings such 08 havo beon described, tomptation was an oasy thing to put down, Ho was bosot by nono of the necossitios and oxtromitios that aro roa~ eonably allowed to oxtonnate mortal offensos ngainet porsonal and official integrity, In the facoof all the favors that hed boon showered upon James Brooks,—temporal, po- litical, and social,—ho pormitted himsel? to uso an officlal trust for his porsonal ben- ofit, and to tho dotriment of tho public intercet. He was appointed a Govern- mont Diroctor of the Union Pacific Railroad, probably bocnuso of the special interost which holad dinplayod in tho graud projoct of span- ning the Continent with an iron rail. His activo support of tho schomo paesod for patriotism, and added to his popularity and succoss, It turned out to bo but & solflsh eplsodo of a solfish caroor, Ho idontified himeolf wilh tho Oredit Mobilior system more largely than any other of tho public men subgoquently found to have beon osgooiated with it, Ho doliboratoly joined Liands with a deliberate combination to defraud tho Government at the very time he was oconpying n position espocially croated for tho purpose of guarding tho CGovernment's intercsts, Whon tho ecxposuro camo ot last, as it is protty sure to come sooner or later, ho adopted & polioy of prevarication aud deception, which culminated ina personal mortification that was positively pitiful to contomplato. It is unnecos- wary to recapitulato the ciroumstances of Brooks! connootion with Crodit Mobilior. Thoy are too recont not to bo entiroly familar, and Mr. Brooks' caso In particular was too humiliating ovor to bo forgolion by those who watchod it, It was a harrowing spoctaclo of shamo, remorsor aud deapalr, The telographio aunouncoment of Mr. Braoks' donth says that bis domiso was the rosult of a disoaso, tho neods of which wore lald in a fovor contraoted In Asia, It is possiblothat this wonld bo regarded by mediesl mon sy the maoin causo of physical dissolution, But modical meon soldom take mote of o crushod spirit, a brokon heart, or a great dis- graco. The montal and moral dlsoasou scldom ontor into thoir dingnosos of Jll-health, Thero aro fow pooplo, however, who aro familiar with tho carcor and proud spirit of James Drooks, and who watched tho tortures e sufferod on tho rack of, the Crodit Mobllior inquisition, that will not agroe that he dled moro of shumo than 0f bodlly allmonts, His last apposrances in tho Houso of Ropresentativos wore . universally spoken of as .pititul to look. upon. . His downe fall, orushod under tho woight of tho sudden rovoraal of = prosporous lifotimo, was tho subject of commont ovorywhoro, Tho man who sliould Liave pasged away amid tho admiration and oulogies of his countrymen proppod himsolt up In his Inst days as an objoct of pity anda spootacle of romorao. T'hiaplain atory of his life and doath rondors it unnocessary to dwoll upon the moral it offors the Amorican pooplo. The losgon stands out in such hold rollof that mon may rend as thoy run. Tho death of James Brooks at this timo may bo tha atonomont of the orrors of his lifo it it can improsy it moral upon {he Amoerican poople, and sorve s timoly warn- ing to our public mon. MR, WATTERSON ON JOURNALISM, Mr. Honry Wattorson, tho oditor of tho Louls- villo Qourder-Journal, delivored an addross bo-' foro tho annual mooting of the Btato Editorial Assoclation of Indiana, which was hold, yostor- day, at Indianapolis. Wo prosont clsowhers in this issuo ‘coplous oxtracts from the address, which our readors will ind to bo ontertalning and inatructivo ronding. It Is o poculisrity of tho profossion of journalism that all mankind,’ and womankind, too,.take n lively intorest in ite progress. A professional address from o lawyor 18 apt to appeal to tho Intorcsts of lawyars ox- clusively ; that from s doctor, to medical mon .alono, and 80 on. An intolligont and plotur- esquo survey of tho fleld of journalism, on tho other hand, concorns aud intercats overyhody, whothor lawyor, doctor, bankor, or .what not. Tho contents of the newspaperis ' common property, and Mr, Wattorson's vivid and plessant troatmont of his thome will meet ‘with approciation aud interest among all classes of nowspapor-roaders, as woll as among news- papor-makors, Tho ruling idea of Mr. Wattorson's essny is the timoly purposo of impressing upon ovory- ‘Dody the importance of maintaining freodom of the pross, which, ho msintains justly, haa boon obtained more by the lattor-day victories over dépondence and subgidy than by any liboralitios of tha law. This fenturo of journaliem is givon the moat prominent place fu tho progross to- ward o profossion, and in roaching that “Fourth Estate" which has boen claimed for it, His contrasts botwoon tho old- gchool newspapor of tho nature of an ‘““organ" and the noew-school newspapor which steera cloar of tho depression and cod- straint of party and cliquo and cauous, is strik- .ng, and can scarcoly fail to impresa upon tho roador tho ronl progrossion that has boon made in journalism. Ho holds that no successful and influential editor can honceforth bo s slave to party, for it will bo cxpected of Lim to protect tho publio from political opprosgions on all sidos, and to oxposo thorns and abuses In overy quarter. ITonco, no successful editor can bo at the samo time a politiciau or an ofice-holder. Ho must hold Limsolf nloof, to whatover party homay attach himself, from the trammals of subeidy and porsonal bias. It {s in tho somo epirit that Mr. Wattorson advisos tho pro- vincinl pross to cut off from tho doad-head and dead-bent system, to abolish the exchango and froo lists, to maintain a steady and inflexible tariff of advortisiug according to its value, and, thus fixing & permanent and nflexiblo rule of thoir own, establish the vital principle of busi- ness oxchango instond of gratuitics on elthor side. Thoro is no doubt that the advico is sound, and the sooner it is followed the botter it will bo for the ultimate success and stauding of tho country newspapors. Bir. Wattorson takes the highest ground of Jjournalism, as was to bo expected. Ho has aptly condensed the whole eapital of tho newspaper in tho single word, * Credit.” What public confl- denco is to tho bankor and public faith to tho statosman, trustworthiness i to the journalist. o staple of tho public journal isnews; but nows does not menn rash sensntions, the eclaboration of mere rumor, or tho fabrication of lively imagi- nations, Tho journal must build up its roputa- tion on faots, obtained at the earlest momont, and presented in the most attraotive manner consistent with truthfulnoss and docency. What Mr, Wattorson calls rockloss, racy writing,” he assorts, cannot hold its own, and nover has dono 80, however sensational or ontertaining it may be for tho timo. The successful and influontial nowapapor must have crodit with its readors, Tho first roquislio is that poople should beliove in tho nows It prosents to them. It i worthy of note that Mr, Watterson prescribos ** kindlinoss, honesty, fearlossnoss, and capability ¥ as the leading charactoristics of the successful jour- paliat, and that he gives kindliness the most prominount yflaco among all of them, Tho theory is founded upon o good basis. The Machiavelian in journalism is no moro welcomo than the mis- antbropo in socloty. There is enough of long faces, black looks, and scowling manner in life without cultivating theso disngreeablo fonturos olthor in jcurpalism or in private circlos, Juatico noeds not to be maintained by a sacrifico of bonhomie, and the world is rarely improved by the gavagery of stylo common to o cortain class of nowapapor-cditors. Mr. Watterson has made his address tho medfum of paying many genial compliments to follow-journalists, which he givos with & warmth that betokons genuineness of conviction’and sn “absonea of profosulonal rancor in any quartor. His utterances aro of akind that will incroase tho gonoral eatoom with which ho iy already ro- garded by those who know him porsonally or profossionally. The address which 2. Barodet, the succesuful Radical candidato in tho rocont glection in Paris, {ssucd to tho eloctors of tho Department of tho Bolno, bringaout the full significanco of his oloction, and roflects the charactor of the popu- lar fooling in Parls with regard to tho Conserva- tive Government of M. Thiors, His olection by such au immonge majority was both a robuke and o warning, M. Darodot was tho formor Mayor of tho City of Lyons, which has boen dis- possossod of its munioipal rights by the Veraailles Asgembly, Hls olection was, thoroforo, o dircot robulto to the Assembly for that act, aud a proof that the two grent citios of Franco aro united in political fooling and in dofouso of thelr rights. ‘I'he platformof principlos to which ho subseribos 18 & warning, tho improssivenoss of which hiss alrondy been shown in the alarm and anxioty manifestod by M. Thiors, his Cabinot, and the Consorvative press, 'The domands which he makes are tho immodiato dissolution of the Ver- solllos Asgombly, tho absoluto Integrity of uni- vorsal suffrago, and tho convocation, without]de- lay, of o nluglo Assombly, which can alone voto tho amnesty and tho ralalug of the atatoof sloge, M.
