It the President shall approve this verdict, the Cowmpany will como in- to immediats poesossion of all ite land-granta. There is yet time for auy porson who knows to speak and provent the surrender. Elder G. Q. Cannon, the Mormon smooth- bore, bas ingeniously evaded a prosccution for polygamy by spiriting away his wives, who sre the only witnosses competent to eatablish the Iact. Docile croatures thoy must be. And fond »f Cannon, The manzgoment of 8 half-dozen _such wives would be mero recreation fors Pres- bytetian Elder. Arsport that Thiera hud been captured by Jtallan brigands was circulated yenterday after- noan, aad i8 denied this morning, Itis probable that the Republican utterances of tho ox-Presi- dent in Ttaly have provoked some figurative ex- grossivns of dieapproval It the French press, which the Associated I'rees man hoa miscon- strued. Beranger blundbrs has that man made. ‘Tho Indisns Lepielaturo is now conceded o tho Domoerats, Joseph E. BleDonald will prob- ably bo electad United Statos Senator to succood Prait.

J, O. Dore, Mr. Sidnoy Smith, and Ald. Dixom. It ia by no mesns cortain that Mr. Sinith has authorized tho uso of Dbis name, Iu cago of Lis witbdrawal, Mr. Dore will recoivo the full voto of Mr. Smith's frionds, Mr. Dixou ia confident of o largo voto on the first ballot, Now York politicinog are in & sad stato of un- certajuty and porplexity. Gov. Dix's chances of election, immediately aftor his nomination, were supposed’ to be about 100 to 1. Now, the stanchest Ropublican of them all admits that Now York is o mighty doubtful Stato in,off- yours, .'Tho troubls is not with Gov. Dix's Ad- minigtration, which han eonfessedly boon above reproach, but with Preaident Graot's, Tho stont hearts of oak in the rural districts havo never throbled tumultuonsly for the party aince the Credit-Mobilior peopls and Loss Shopherd and Senborn were dragged into the light and their rottennces exposed. Tho chonge in the situation is wonderful. In 1872, Grant pulled Dix through; in 1874, Dix will pull through Grant's Copgressmen, or such of them as get throngh, Thea Dix was clected because of Grant; now he will bo olected, if at all, in spito of Grant. A eanon of divorce was submitted yesterday to the Lower House of the Episcopsi Convontion by tho House of Bisops. It atrilea straight at tho root of looko marriagoe relations by withhold- ing the sanction of the Church from divorces obtaingd for any other reasou than adaltery, Ministors are forbidden Dby tbis canon to solompizo the marriage of awy divorced verson whose spouse is still living, ox- cept the iunocent party to & divorco on account of adultery, or porsons who have heen divorced and wish to be remarried. Tho Convention, we beliove, has taken n good staod for the right, and ot o good time, If thia cauou should be adopted, tho Episcopal Churel:, at least, will have done ail in hier power to fis the principles of ber children. The exmnple muy well bo imitated by other churches of every denomination, Bpecial atlontion is again directed to tho pro- caedings of the Woman's Congrosa in this city, which gro beiug tully roported in Tur TRIBUNE, It ia not every day or every year that alargo uumber of futelligent and respectablo women meet to diseuss wnttors of inferest to tho gex. Such au cveiit, when it does ceeur, onght to be given propar dimensions; und thoughtful men aud women should be the first lo recognize its imporience. The papers resd in the Congress yeaterduy aro typical, and o mere glanco at tho titles will sbow the high tone of the discugsious.

The st two nets of tho Convention wera the appoint- mont of & permanent Committes on Outrages, eharged with tho duty of providing outrages in sufiicient numnbors to justify Federal intor- forence a8 soon as the South repudintes Ropub- licanism, and the election of an Executive Com- wmittes of ton. The majority of tho tonaro un- kuown, bat we recognize the tamilinr nnmes of Dorsoy, of Arkansas; Pinchback, of Louisians, and Spencor, of Alabama. With this trlo of patriots controlling Southern affairs, the coun- try is safo, TOBACCO AND SANCTITY, It fa always o matter for covgrutulation when & toachor of morals and & epiritunl guido shows & delinquency of auy sort, or manifcata a tendonoy to indulgo in small carmal delights, it relioves a certain conventional grimness and primncas, which aro habits rather thau necessitics of tho cloth. The wbito choker docs not scem go rigidly en regle, the buttons do not appear to bo in such mcthemathically-orthodox straight lines, and tho genoral faghion of the mau doos not suggest ;contribution-boxes and loug-metre pealms, st fizsb wiglt.

Tho mora eminont tho proacher who has the poccadilio, the mora room is there far congratulation. For these sud other reasony, we road in tha Englieh papees with o foeling of delight that Spurgeon hu¢ a pecendillo—a wenkness in com- mon with the farger partof human beings—that Lo hag baen publicly asenlled forit, and that he has publicly dolended himsolf, 1iis wenkness is a cigar. The publicity of his weakucss camo about in the following mamner: Spurgeon head been praaching to Iis tlock upon the thema of habitual indwgenco in emall sius, and the dan. ger that they might load to the commission of lnrger onos, Auj Americnn elergyiau who was prezent, and who wea anara of Spurgeon's dovo- tion to tobaeco, urose and violently denounced the practice cf rmoking au oue of the small sins, und deltvored Limnolf of » blast agrinst tho pro- duction of tho weed which croatod quite a com- motion. 3Ir. Spurgeon, iowevor, waa oqual to tho occaeion, for ho aroso and mado a brief bub vory thorough defouge of wsmoking. Atter baving triumpbantly established tho fact that 1t was not o ein ut ull, littlo or big, he boldly annouticed, for tho edification of Lis Amorican Dbrothor, that by the grace of God o hoped to cnjoy & good cigar beforo golog to bed that night. This was gull aud Dbitterucss to the American brother ; bus worse wes to come, for e shortty after inforalod him thue he smoked to tho glory of God, Uhiy sentitaont, uttered by s worldling or o henthon, would appear very shocking to u Ohris- tian, bat, uttered by a Christiay, it does not ap- pear vory shocking to a worldling, Whou sifted down, it will be found full of good sense and trughiful application. We once know u proacher, who was u mout oxomplary Christian and lover ot good things, to preach n Thanksgiving ser« mon, in which he advisad Lis flock to go home to thelr turkeys und plum-puddings, and praise God with tlelr stomuchs. Tho good wan did not state su absurd or irreveront proposition. It is possible to seve both God and the Devil through the wmedium of the stomach. A well-cookod dinner, norved ot & rensonable timo and csten in healthy moderation, shows an approciation of tho boustive supplied by Providence, strengthons the cater for divine work, and mnslkes bim st peace with all the world and Lindly disposo:t towardy all man, Lot 1o vente 10an pratako of enampagno aud fried oystars after widnight, and b wilt arto in the mornlug with bitier feolings towsrde that power which planted the oystor in its Lad, and the cook who onveloped it in batter; thint power which Ind tho Jufce lu tho grape, aud - that mau who corked itd thoussnd dovilsin jlawy, e will bo full of the gall of bistoruoss, and ey evou wish bo weradesd..

PENNSYLVANIA RAILWAYS. ‘Tho Rauway Monitor recontly contnined s condensod roport of tho Auditor-Goneral of Pounsylvanls, Including returus from all rail- rozds that ,traverso any portion of that Stato.

What Las been goinod by this increnss or paid-in stock and funded debt? It the moane ronlized from these two sorces have beon exponded in tho construction of the 104 miles of main lino and 408 miles of branch roads, which aro all the tablo takes any account of, the cost of amile of road s tho cnormous amount of £212,000.

What ling becomo of the odd §85,000,0007 'The Tribune iutimates that to un- wer this quoation it might bo nocossary to look farther than the figaros of the ronorts, possibly into the pockets of tho several BEoards of Di- rectora, ‘I'toro are, af least, tho Z'ribune thinks, 860,000,000 of the 285,000,000 which cannot bs accountoed for at all. Thio 860,000,000 sro charged to * coustruction accounts.” Horo s the root of the whole ovil. These * consiruction accounts™are the cover undor which the raflroads have been plundered, The bonds by which the above immenso sum was obloined were issued néb to meot consiruction esponrey, but to pay the operating expensss and » dividend to tho stockholdors. Such manage- wentof railrosd property is not conducive to prospority, If porsevered in, it will mout cer tainly end in financial ruin, and throw diseredit on all railway bonds. ¢ THE LABOR QUESTION, There is ecarcely & country in which labor does not stand orgavized zad srrayed againat capital. It is go especially in Gormany, in France, and in Fogland. In this strogglo of Labor and Capital it Is inturealing, and occasionally smusing, to obsarve oy tho material characteristics of these threa peoples crop out, ‘The French workman is impractiesl,dreamy, oulre, rovolutionary; theGer- mav, metapbysical aud full of systom-building ; the Englishman, cool, practical, and rational. ‘'no Frenchman would improve the condition of tho laboriug cluss by proclalming o uew and radieal goapel of tho rights of men sud tho righte of property, Tio diferences between employera and em- ployes ho would reconcile by abolishing at one atrolto tho rights of capital. To tho French ro- former capitsl I3 *‘accumulated shamo,” or “thoft," or “ascussination;” and the mun who saves big oarnings and so hocomes au iuciplent capitalist ls o “ raitor to his brothron." his fu tho wmost dangerous kind of warfare that can bo waged against capitol, It Is dostined to end in temporary anarcby and oventusl despotism, the natural resction from anarehy. The German re- formers, as reprogontod by the Democratio Soclaliuts, 1ind thelr nationnl exponent in Lordi- uand Lusgnlle, Assuming that 96 por cont of the commnuuity have no capital nf all, thoy augert thnt the State must enter into compoti- tton with iho 4 per cont of the population which reprezouts the capitalists, and must support labor asuociations, Of eourde the State con in the long run obtain the capilal it neods to support thesa labor assaclations only from the ownera of property ; and thua it is callod upon to despoil these for tho sake of the non-propertied classes, In tha end, the systom of the Qerman roformors {a no hotter than tbat of the French.
