The poople of Hartford, Conn., have most resson to complain, They im- yorted & olub of professional ball-playors thin son. The mournful consoquences ara rummarized in a telographie dispatch this morn-~ Jog. In the absonce of the professionals, two amateur organizations sttempted on Saturdsy 3o wield thoclub of Hercules and throw the bolts of Jupiter. Tho game ended at tho close 3f the fifth foning, One player had & broken Bnger ; another had a mevere cut op the head, and a third had his jaw broken and six teoth knocked out. DBase ball in now taboo in Hart- Tard, —— Prof. Bwing's sormon yostorday was on the method of reform, Ho held that tho ro- form by violence has passed away; that he most rocont illuatrations of It which we lhave haid—tho abolition of slavery In this country—has been followed by unfor- tunate consequences; and that tho method of roform most in harmony with an ago of liberty sud peace i¢ the roform by displace- mont, i. . the peaceful crowding nside of faleo 1deas by the correctod teachings of experience, emancipation of thought, he taken place within the fold of roligion during the past twenty- Gvo yoars. Dogma has suffered and Chriatian- Ity hae gained. The result is that Christions Lave only to smeize upon their opportunitics ®ald, has to work & glorlous moral reformation, Another sermon roported in our ool umns this morning is & review of Prof, Haven's lifo by Dr. Thomea, It will repay a caroful porusal by those knowing lenst of the eminent scholar who has gone. ——— It tho present Government in Bpain Lnows suything, it koows how to bo consistent with itaelt, Tho terriblo condition of Cuban financos has not boon alleviated by the exhibition of ordinary sagacity on the part of the Caplain- Geueral, and it iy undorstood that his brutal opposition to tho courss of nature hus beon much sdmired by the fomo Government, Now the Home Governmont las advanced from sdmiration to emulation. Spaunish finances wre in quits 3 bad & way ae Cuban financos, and what is good for Cuba is good for Spain, Bo the new President and his advigers Lave rogu- Iatod the prico of gold, and mado wealih by nationsl decreos, and played all manner of fan- tastio tricks with the proporty of the Bpanish peoplo. The laat piece of such legerdemain is tho ispuing of an edict which forbids tho press to attack the financial schemes of tho Gov- ernment. It is humiliating for men of sonso to reflect that they belong to the same order of croation a4 the Spanish financier ; aud yot & gon- alderable partof the American nation in disposed to favor a fiuanclal syatom that has landed Spaln in foollahness and despotism, Fatber De Bleok, of the Churoh of the Holy Tanmily, made digression in his sermon yester- day to fonoh on the inmpiration of the Ioly Beriptures and the relation of Beience to Faith, 1t wae ovident that this part of his dlscourse was lnspired by the raceut looture of Father Terry before the Young Mon's Catholio Library Aggociation, Ha romarked in substance that o suporfiolal knowledge of Bolence and an iguo- rance of the Oatholio rulos of Biblioal exegosls waaat the bottom of all skopticism about thobar mony of the Bibla and tho teachings of Sclence, A young man whose whole intelleotual ealibre was expeuded In turning & oigar into smolo might talk glibly of Holence, of which he knew Jistle, and the Dible, of which he kaew losaj but thono who had mado & profound study of both wero lenn husty to find discropauclos botwoon thom, It 5 moro than probabio that the young man abovo roferrod to was the Rov, Mr. Torry.

A nogro's right is too ofton assoclatod in his own miud with somebody elso's wroug. This species of right was vindientod by tho nogroes of Nashville onDocoration Day in a thoroughly boastly man- nor. Anaccount of tholr proceedings will be found olsewhoro. Takon in councotion With the tho fact that tho Civil Rights Dbill iy most stronuusly opposed in 'Tonucssoo, tho low order of being that played havoo in tho Nashvillo comotory on Saturday becomes s doubly intor- osting study in anthropology. Susan B. Anthony haa taken an appesl from tho decision of Judge Hunt, by which she was finod for alloged illogal voting, to tho Houso of Ropresontativos. Bho ayks for o romission of tho flno on tho ground that the Judge sllowed evidonce to bo taken for tho considora- tion of a jury, and aftorward issued a poromp- tory ordor that o yordict ‘sbould bo on- tored up on Lis own decision, The Judiciary Committeo of the ouso has agroed to rocom- mond that Mies Anthouy's potition bo grantod. Judgo Hunt's decision in tho esso has never given sntisfaction to any of the partics imme- diately concerned, and perhaps thoero will be no publioregretin cage it should bo modified by the romiesion of tho fino. It is not o maxim of low that tho end justifies tho means, Whilo tho imposiug of a fino on Miss Authony was not @& wevero or unmorited pun- isbmont, the arbitrary and captious ruling of the Court, by which the jury that bad beon sum- moned to try the case was made of no account, gavo color to tho shriok of ** porsscution” with ‘which tho women have boen rending the heavens from that doy to this, What bas boen said m this connoction should be modified by the ro- floction that Butlor is at the head of the Committoa which has agroed to report the bill. Everybody knows him for an arrant domagogue, Ho scldom ospouses a oause becauso it is good, nor ever forsakes ono be- cause it is bad. Judge Hunt's motives cannob be impugued, but Butlor's may be, Still an- other point for consideration is that it is not “tho province of the loglelaturo to oxorcies ju- dicial function, Mliss Authony's romedy prop- erly lios in the Unitejt Statos Courts, THE BLUE AND THE GRAY. ‘Thers are many ovidonces that the romains of tho pest differencos between the North and the Bouth are passing away, and that a feeling of real brotherhood Is growing up betwoen tho two soctions of tho country. The Warof the Re- Dellion is not dastined to leave a lasting ocho of strifo in tho hoarts of tho people of this coun- try. Time, the groat teacher and tho great heal- or, isslowly but certainly effacivg tho scars of war from the face of naturo and from tho hearts of mon, Firat among the ovidonces of this ro- concilistion came the battle-flag resolution of tho lnmented’ Sumnor. Like all grent mon, Mr, Bumner was in advanco of his time, Tho perpetration of mecctional animositios ho saw could no longer be productive of good. The country, lowover, was not ripe for his rogolution. The avorago man could not keop pace with the groat statosmon. A howl wag raigod againat ,the proposition and its author, Hig own State consured him—as it Sumner, the friend of Liborty, after nearly & quartor of a century’s baitling for Emancipation aud tho Union, could take a disloyal step! DBut tho country has been creoping up to Sumnor's po- sition. It is boginuing to sco tho truo signif. ornce of that resolution—the loyalty, patriot- ism, Dbumanity, Christianity, statesmanship thero was in it. That rosolution meant uuion, porce, Mboxty, civilization, snd, now that its author belongs to history, ho will bo romom- berod by his “battle-flag resolution” no less than by his action previous to and during the War of the Robellion. From his grave he still advocates that resolution, and, when it comes up sgain, as como it will, proposed and advocated by othor tongues, tho wholo country will welcome it, ns Freedom's forgivencss and absolution to the erring South. Whon the peo- ple of the North come to ask themsolves, an sometimos they will, What would we have done it wo had been born and matured in the midst of Blnvory ? thoy will pass that rosolucion with re- spectful ailonce. The decoration of the graves of the Confeder- ato doad by tho same hands that ornamented thoso of tue Federal on Saturday last poluts in the wamo direction. The gallant fellows that woro tha gray we are bogiuuing to look upon rather a8 misguided men than ns malicious eno- mios. In pity, it notin love, the poople of the North mourn over their graves. As beautifully oxpressed in the lines, ¥ Tho Blue ‘and the Gray,” in our Baturday's issuo : No more ehiall the war-cry sever, Or tho winding river bs rod ; “They Lanish our anger forever ‘When thoy laurel the graves of our dead, Under tha sod and the dew, Walling the Judgment Day, Love and teurs for the blus, Tenra and love for tho gray.

Ilis recommondation was not unhaeded, At Itook Island, in this Siato, the touching sight was wituessed of surviving Fed« orali plucing garlanda on the graves of Confed- orates who had dlod in the military prison, At Calro the divine obarsotar of forgivenvas wagstha thomo of Cov.

In tho ease of tho robbory of tho oxprogs-car on tho Michigan Contral Railrond, last Friday ovening, tho cooluess and bravery of the oxpross- mossongor, Sponcor Honth, lod to the death of ono of tho villains, although it did not prevent tho robbory of tho safo by his companion, Tho factsrot tho alfair aro brlofly thoso: When tho trafn arrivod at Micligan City, the two robbora goton the front platform of the expross-car, which was immodiatoly bohind tho tondor, and, un- dorcoverof thodarknoss, clamborod over thocar to tho roar platform, Aftor fastening tho door of tho baggage-car, 80 1t could not be opened, thoy priod tho door of tho oxpross-car off from its hiugos and immodiatoly entored. Llr. itenth was alone 1n the car, fixing his accounts, and wag not awaro of thoir presonco, until ono of them, suddenly springing forwurd, knocked him totho floor with a hoavy blow. Althongh half- stunned, ho immediately. drow bis pistol, and, as tho villain bont ovor Lim to comploto his bloody work, ho shot him through the hoad and killed Lim. Hoath thon fainlod nway from the offects 8o, too, at 8L, Louls and at of tho terrlble blow ho had recoived, ond this gave the othor robbor an opportunity to rob the safe and os- cape from tho car, Whon the train reached Niles, the brave mossongor was found in tho car he had so faithfully guarded, Iying by tho &ido of tho dead robbor, but was soon restored, It is ovidont that tho robber who oscaped, sco- ing My, Hoath fall unconsclous, must havo sup- posed him doad also. The only thing to regrob in the nffair—for the loss of money i not im- portant, smounting only to 82,700—is that M. Heath could not have proserved his conscious- ness long enough to shoot tho othor scoundrol also, ns he most assuredly would lLavo done. In accomplishing as much as ho did, Lowover, Le has shown limsolf to bo a cool, courn. geous horo, mado out of gonuino mauly stuf, and o faithfal and detorminod gusrdian of* his omployer's property o not only doserves the thanks of tbo publio for ridding tho world of one of these scoundrols, but ho apecially desorves tho gratituda of tho railrond and express corporations in whoss sor- vico he waa employed. Such gallantry is ontitled to prompt and Liearty recognition. The circumstauces of thisrobbery only confirm tho importanco of the recommendation wo have many times urgod, that those who aro in charge of tho valuables on & railroad train, and tho em- ployes of the train algo, should bo armed. Had Mr. Heath not been armed, both the robbers would have escapad, and probably ho would bave lost his Jite slso. Witn determined men in chargo of s train, sufliclontly armed fo meot any emorgency, oxpress robberies, and stoppages of traing by bauditti, which have bo- come so frequent of lato, would soon ceaso. This robbery bas shown what one brave man, al- though alone and unaided, can do, Had thore been anothior employo in tho car also armed, tho morvicen of the dotectivesin capturing the as- caped robber would havo beon unnccoasary. SOUTH CAROLINA, Taxation witbout ropresontation is tyranny. It muy alsoba conflscation, Tho taxpayors of Chorleston County, South Cnrolins, have not a sioglo repreacniative in the Legislature, Thoy aro dofonscloss, and they are, thorefore, robbod. In five dayu of laat wook, 2,000 picces of real estato in that single county wero wold for delin- quont taxes. The ofticial schedule reads as followa s « 118 ploces + 163 pieces 12,000 pleces 660 pleces 47 pluces ,900 picees This process is going on through the wholo Stato. To pay ihe intereat on bonds that Lave beon stolon, and to enablo ofticial thioves to keop on atenling, taxos that caunot be paid uro levied upon the luckless whites. This is conflseation, sbeor aud gimplo. It juatifies rovolution, That vevolutlon may bo effected, however, by ballots instoad of bullots, Judgo . J.

ENGLAND AND RUSSIA IN ASIA, That thore fs to bo in tho futuro—uot far removod, it may happon, from our day—n contont botwoen England and Russin for the maatery of portiona of Asia, §s one of those prophotlo utter- ancos which sanguine writors proclatm and cau- tious stateamen lold in reservo as n possibility ovontually to bo mot. With a poople far ro moved from us, with fow tics of commorcial intorost and noné of languago, lineago, or com- munity of idons, novertholess an intercst ate taches itaclf to tho question ns from iime to time tidings come of somo now advance, some troaty arranged, or when somo sharp thorn of diplomnatio disoussion obirudes ilself into tho councils of assombled European nations. It is not o new thing, thin futuro collision, Tho groat Napoleon saw with o prophetic oye the growing power of Russiz, and proclaimod that Luropo would in fifty yoars becomo Ropublicnn or Qossrck. Tho fifly yonra huvo olapsed and liis prodiction is yot unverifled. Ropublicanism 1a ground undor tho iron hoel of Gorman and Russian Imperialism, and thae opposition to the Cosgnclc comos rather from monarchical and com- merclal England, then from confedorated gov- ernments rising from the ruing of tho old despotisms, . At tho timo of the British acquisition o Indin, the Empire of Russia was but omorging from a somi-barbarism, Vst districts intorvened be- twaon tho rich provincos of Upper Indinand the outlying hordes of wandering tribes which owned o half-allogiance Lo tho Ozar. With the mem- orablo retreat of the British from Afghanistan in 1842, tho strictly aggrossivo policy of England censod for a time. For thirty years the divection of Dritish onorgy has boon in the consolidation and strongthenmg of their decupancy of Indiz, and groat has boen the rosult, Vast schemes of internal improvemont have beon devised and prossod forward to complotion, Railways of a leugth unoqunied excopt in the United Btates liavo boon built. 8yetems of canals and internal wator communication have boen planned. Tho care of tho forest, tho improved cultivation of the soil, aud tho introduction of now products liavo progrossed, haud in band, with rogulations Jofor the Lioalth and oducation of tho paople. Customs s old as tradition, but which aro a stain upon tho civilization of the nineteenth century, have boon supprossed, and all tho whilo the grasp of the conquoror and civilizer comented, stronger and stronger, with tho lapse of each docade. Meantime the coloasel Empiro of tho North baa advanced with mighty strides, Tho proud titlo of the Romauoffs, “Emperor of All the Tussles,” b nequirad now significanco. A oou- tinunl warfaro Lng beou waged with a marching und conatermavehing of armios, New provinces, now Governors, now acquisitions, liavo eausod o porpotual chango of boundarios; and from the barron idea which was suggested by tho single word © Siberis,” wo Lavo now to look upon tho Ttuseians firmly established from tho shoros of the Bultic n@ Black Seas to the Pacifie Ocean, aud their watchfires oxtonded down across tha stoppoy of Contral Asin till they confront the ad- vauco of tho Anglo-Suxons throngh tho passes of the Himalayae. Waxing bold with iucrensod strength, Rusaln s, from time to timo, prossed torward upon {he boundaries of tho decaying Monaschies of Westorn and Central Asla, A trenty with Poreid, in 1928, brought hor tho prov- iucos of Erivan aud Nakshivau. The Troaty of Adriznoplo, in 1829, carried tho Russinn bound- ary down to the southcast of the Black Sea, and thenos across to tho Caspian. From 1810 till tho present timo expoditions have pro- grossed againat Khiva, and mow the “Trangcasplan territory ™ has roceived its rogulations for the adwinistration of the Russian Governmont. A local class of native ofiiolnls, under the suthonty of the Governor, who is in turn subordinate to tho Commander- in-Chiel of the Caucnsus, &orvo for the colloo- tlon of taxcs, and aro charged with tho mainten- anco of order and the ropaivs of roads and bridges, Tho wandering tribes aro taxed ac- cording to the mumber of touts possessed, and in proportion to their wealth. The year 1354 witnessod tho strifo in the Orimca. 'The Wost- ern powers, aroused to tho magnitude of tho contost, battled for the posseasion of that “‘prico- less jowel " of the Russinn Crown—tho fortresses and armamonts which lay bohind the *steop shining atreots and olive-groen domes™ of Se- vastopol. The genius of 'Codlebon, infusing it- self deop into tue very life of the Russiaus, mndo the contoat-for s momont doubtful, and the fate of Turkey hung for a time in the balaneo, Lhoy provailed, but tho tresty thoy wrung with their victory was in a moment nullitled daring the Tranco-Prussisn war, wien Russin *tore up the treaty of 1850." p Trom 1858, Russia hns absorbed tho control of the Amoor Rivor, and, stealthily croeping across tho wustonof Aongolia, hias ** placed one foot upon the nackof thadvagon " by lodging at Kalgan—s towor on the Creat Wall, less than s hundred milos from Pokin—a body of troops for tho pro- teotion of Rusainn merchants, *Anod of tho hioad from tho Russian Ambassador in Pofiin is more efilcaoious than an armed demonstration on the part of any other Buropoan powar,” says s recont writor; and, by her troaty with Rusaia, Japan i3 bound to olose hor ports to Bnglish vos- selain caso of a war botweon ,that powerund Russio, The forolgn policy of England has changsd within the presont contury, Tho days when Pitt and Canning woro potont in Continontal affairs bavo pasaed away, aud to them Les succeoded o polloy of non-intorvention and mastorly invotiv~ ity but lttle in acoord with the proud position once maintained, But it would be wrong to sup- poso that this scemiug lethargy is a rosult of woaknesn, 1 is rether due to advanced concop- tioun of intornational Intercourse, which roly lasu upon force of arms than upon renson gndar- gument, Wo have an examplo in tho Ormmean cswmpalgn of how & fros poople can contduot thewselvon in time of war, Many aod fear- Iul es wore tho blundors they committed, the powor that was Iatent, requiring but & audlciont stimulus to briug forth a mighty energy, was anply shown, Thoso who look upon ths Dritleh Empiro ss faal boooming » sadoud-sate powor are siwply outpost brought under control, of some umv] mistakon, The power of s natlon lics not in astanding armiea of mon,but in its nhins,ils prod- uctw, its commercial sud industrial rosourcen, and its accumulation of capitnl. In theso, England fu atill proudly pro-eminent, It re- quiros but a diversion of this power from ity customary channols to convort it into the forcon with which warfaro la carriod on. And, with Indin for n bano and two conturiois of elvilization for bor fortress in tho Enst, sho will have an onormous advantage at the oulaot, Inall sud- don undorlakings of magnituds, England Iy first fu tho fleld. Blockede-runners, during our Civil War, poured forth from her dook-yarda like beos from a hive. She has monopolizod the trafiio of the Suoz Cannl; Ocean telography and foroign railwaya aro due to her outorpriso and power of acoumulated woalth.

"It is ovident that tho English Govornmont fa fully awaro of tho possibility of a futuro colli- ston.

THE NEW TARIFF ON WINE, The Houso of Representatives lns stultified itsolf by laying n duty of 163 per cont on choap winoy, All unbinsod students of the tomporanco quostion agres with tho Massnchusstts Board of Honlth in tho boliof that, sinco man will drink, the best possible way to promotoe tomporanco is to ancouraga this drinkiug beor and light wino, To offact this, boor and wino must bo medo cheap, Yhoy must not, thereforo, bo londod down with fmport dutlos, 'Tho Ilouso, howevar, is unable to comprohond this A, B, O of liquor logislation. 1t rofected the Ways and Moans Committee's proposal to tax still wines in casks 40 conts per gallon. Thon it fixed the tax at 50 couts, Thisis equivalent to an ad valorem duty ©of 155 por cent, oy the following table, compited by the Now York Evening Post {rom the ofticial records for 1378, will show : Tuportsof Cost abroni, Iroposed Equiyalent er gallon, duty, 10 ad val, i 60e 153 por cent. o 43 por cent 200 oo 25 por cont It will bo secon that the cheap clarots and Rbine winos, which our German and Fronch population driuk daily, and whick aro fortunatoly in over-increasing domasnd among Americans, aro taxod six timos ns much as tho rich man’s costly boverages, oud thrico as much as the grades of wine that figuro on the wine-cards of lotels. This iu practical prokibition, If the Sonate adopts this foolish amondment, it will bavo to share with the Houso the reaponsibility of an enactment that Lears heavily upon tho poor sud lightly upon the rich. Tho duty should be cut down to 20 conts o gallon. The revenuo would loso notliug by tho ohnnge. It would probably gain. Thero would cortainly bo o groat stimulug givon to importation, and a consequent decrouse in the demand for whisky aud brandy. In tho interests of tomporance sud of the poor, wo call upon Congross to cut down this propon- terous tax. If itiy rotained, howover, its offeots will sorve as & necded lesson to all Germanu who boliove in protaction. ROUHEFORT'S EPIGRAM, Wo attach vory littlo importance to what Roche- fort has to eay about France or Fronch politios, Wo know very well that lio would consider the beat form of goverumont for France thatin which the mob should rule the couatry, and in which bo should rulo tho mob.

Ifonce ho informs the world, in his eplgrammatio slylo, that, *ir thore bo anything in the world more ridiculous than & Republio without Ropublicaus, it ia & Monarchy without a Monareh,* Thera is more of antilhesis than of senso in this remark of tho French demngogue. If the form of government that obtaine in Krance ab progent is that of a Ropublio without Republic~ ans, or & Monarchy without a Monureh, it is becauso it is tAe only ono possiblo. A Mon- arcby without a Monareh " is procisely what Tranca wants, It TFranco is over to have a Re- publican Governmont in roality, as well as in name, it i8'best it ehonld vome to it in some such fashion an the prosent.
