HANCOOK'S STATESMANSHIP. Now that the hurrah and exeltemont over Gun. Hancock's noulnation liave died away, people are asking the questions, Is Gon, Hancock a statesman? If so, what manner of statesman ishe? What degree ant kind of oxecutive ability In managing affairs of State has ho displayed, and under what eb cumstances? Eyen the Chlengo ‘imes, which cannot be accused of any love for Re publicanism, Is asking this question, and In seeking for an answer finds that Gen. Wan- cock Is 6 “ypolitteally unknown quantity; that he hus never had any experlence In statecraft but once, aud that was ditring his military adininistration in Now Orleans, whieh was not grently to his credit, as at that time he was simply the tool of Androw Johnson, sent there to nullify the Reconstruction acts of Congress, .defy the *Unlon sentiment of the country, and to carry out the infamous State soverelunty doginas involved in ‘ my pol. fey.” We have but one incident that affords any measurement of lis statesmanship, and that fs his brief military administration of New Orleans ata tine when the Union sen- timent of the country represented In Con- gress was secklug to reconstruct a people who wero stilt In the attitude of Rebels and still Milled with hatrad to the North, In this administration it 1s‘ not dlMcult to show that he was slinply the creature of Andrew Johnson, sent to New Orleans to nulllfy the purposes of Congress, whieh hud passed Its reconstruotlon measures over the Executive vetoes. Ie wns sent to Now Orleans under commiaslon from Andrew ‘Jolinson, Lis program was mado out by Andrew Jolinson, and he ecnrried it out so far ss he could That program was, a8 ns Washing- ton dispatch to the Charleston (8. ©.)

THE EXPULSION OF THE JESUITS, ‘Tho present expulsion of the Jesuits from France and the seizure of their establish- ments are but the repetition of an old story, the result 6f which may be accurately ane nounced In advance, When thoy first eame into France from Spain, as carly ns 1540, they met with strenuous opposition from the Par- Mament and tho University of Paris, and from some of tho Catholic Bishops, ‘Thoy did not acquire a legal existence until 1562, but even then opposition did not cease, and when, In 1504, one of thelr number made an attempt upon the life of Henry IV., they were ex- pelled by deeres of Parllument. In 1603, how- ever, Henry IV, himself recalled thom, They remalned In favor with Louis XII. and Louis XIV. but during one of the wars wilh Charles V., when all Spaniards were ordered to leave France, no exception was mado in their favor, and thoy removed in largo num- bers to the Netherlands. In tho middle of the eighteenth century, Choiseuj, the Prime Minister, and Mme. Pompadour used thelr efforts with Parlinment to suppress them, but with no immediate effect oxcept a demand upon Rome by Louls XY. that the Order should be reformed. Reeelving no satisfaction, ho expelled them, In 1768 tho Bourbon Courts, France included, united in a demund for tho entire suppression of the Order, but did not secure it until they had paved the way for tho election of Clement. XIV. us Pope, who Issued the famous order, ‘The Jesuits, howevor, wero not suppressed, but flourished all the more vigorously. They sprang up with renewed zeal and enthusiasm andin greater numbers oyerywhero. They svon reappenred In France, as they did after every oxpulsion, At first they were toler- ated by Louls XVII. and Charles X., but soon regained thelr old power. In 1830 the Revolution against tho Bourbon dy- nasty banished the Jesuits, but. In 1845 they were oll back, and they linve remained ever since, Increasing In strength and {nflnence, and in the number of tholr so- called “educational”? establishments, until now, when under the provisions of the now Edueatlonal bill their . establishments aro once more seized and they ara driven out of the Republic, the niostof them finding an asylum In Spain, the hoine of Jesuitism. ‘The present raid against the Order Is only tho Indirect reault of this bill, though It pro- hibits all religious teachings in tho schools. It was passed by the Chamber of Deputies, -Where tha Republicans are In tho majority, but was rojected by the Conservatives of the Senate, whereupon the Government proceed- ed under the sanction of an old Inw forbid- ding unauthorized religious establishments and decreoing the banishment of the Jesuits, nfaw still In foreo and adecreo which has never been revoked. As tho Jesuits defied tho decree, relssted. by official procla- mation, the Government resorted to foree, and has ones more closed up the estabilshmonts and driven the brothorhood across Its frontlers., But, owt bono? as they have returned many thes be- fore, they will come back again, Thoy have always flourished under persecution, and thoy will now. So it is morally certain that they will sgon be back In France again; that they will reopen thelr schools; and that thoy will resumo thelr plotting agalnst Repub- Ucanism, and this !s all tho more certain since they aye the sympathies of the Con- sorvatives; of the Clorlcals, who have not always been favorably disposed towards them; and of a Jarge proportion of the people of France, There is but one effective course for the French Republicans to follow, and thatis the policy adopted in this country, which is contained in the old maxim of Jefferson that error cannot preyall where truth 1s left freo to combat it, Tho remedy for Jesuitism 3 eduen- tion, Religious errors «= and ——fanotl- cism only take root where a people are sunk {n ignorance, In this country, whero edu- cation fs general and-schools are abundant, there is no fear of Jesultiam.. They Inbor slde by side with ench othor without inter- ference, and neither our public schools nor our system of government stand in any fear of Jesuits, though thoy,are very powerful and have numerous strong and wealthy establishments. But ignorance fs always weakness, and an Ignorant people are always atthe mercy of fanaticism, If the French Government would devote Itself with half the zeal it displays in periodically driving Jesulis out of {ts dominions to the spread of education among the young and to the dif- fuslon of knowledge, that Republic would bo In no nore danger from Jesultlsm than our own, Tur Dritlsh Parliament haa extended the tentire of the Rallway Commission three years longer thon Its original term, Presi- dont Chamberlain, of the British Board of ‘Trade, who is by his position a member of the Government, has been walted on by the representatives of the Chambers of Com- juerce, und requested to use hia Influence in favor of aoinv yory Important new powers. ‘They ask that the Commlsstoners should be authorized to require the construction of short junction Nycs between rival routes when necessary for the facilitation of traftio; that freight rates should be submitted to the Commissioners for reyisjon; that through rates should be made compulsory on the ap- Dlication of persons using the lnes; that Chambers of Commerce should be privileged toappearas complainants beforo the Com- mission, representing the grievances and wants of the business publle, Mr, Chamber- Jnin promised that those suggestions should recelve cnrnest attention, But if the British public get no more than they now have In the way of railway supervision and control thoy will ati! be inuch better off than the people in this country, where the citlzens vate but the corporations govern, ————— Turkey hasnt Inst made a direct issue with the Great Powers by notifying thom that it will not cede the Districtof Dulcigno to Montenegro, which was claimed by tho Mons {anegrius, and the justiea of whose elalin tas Just been conceded by the representatives of the Powers In conference at Borlin, ‘Tho re- fusal ig nothing more nor less than might haye been expected from ‘Turkey, and It now remains to be seen what netion the Powers will take In the pretuses, They allowed Turkey to disregard the Treaty of Berlin for two years. Will they now allow her to dia rogard the decistons of the Conference called to enforce this very treaty?

Jt hag afirmed and donted, adopted and rejectod, all tho political heresles of tho time. It has combated, denounced, and Nally agreed to andappleuded covery ong of the great reforms wrought out by tho Hopublican party, On ques- tions of currency, taxation, and the publlo lands, ag woll ns on the numerous lssucs of tho War, re- construction, and tho payment of tho publlo debt, it hus occupied a variety of irreconallablo positions pro und con, Jt bas traveled complotely around the circlo of polit- fen] apostasy, it has originated no new polloy of the elightest vnluc, and suggusted none, but bas been a constant dmg und ob struction to tho Ucnotivont measures introduced by its opponents, It hus trimmed its sills to entch overy gust of popular pission or proju- dice, while it has sought neither to guldo nor to correct publia opinion, 1t haa never ascor- tulnod the will of. the people until that will waa roady to {nd some new modo of expression, Hence tho Democracy hae beon continually be- bind tho times. With tho excuption that it sticks to “State-soverciguty,” It has been, in fact, an unprincipled camp-follower ot tho Re- publican party, snatching up engerly the cuast- off garmonts of the great army, and skulkicg In tho renr to avold bardship und danger. dn allthis porlod. the Democragy bas boon actuated by no high inotives. It hus beon clthor wholly aolfish, as when it espoused the cause of the slaycholder in 1888, or distinctly trensonable aa when It pronounced the Ware fallure* in 1864, or blindly revengoful, na when it favored tho paymont of tho bonds in iredoemnble sorip in 1408.
