The Premlor roforred with gruat pride to tho financial progrosa of France under the Htepubiic, to tho remission in taxation, and to the growth Jn prospority. 1p reference to the oxpulston of the Jesuits, he saul they were not oxpellod bocause of thelr religious obaracter, but because of thelr political {utrigues and objects, Thore was not, bo addod, any intention to disturb pthor roliz- fous ordere as long as they did not assuine an unfriondly attitude to the Government, Ha also announced that the Ministers were prepare jog @ Dili for the regulation of all lay and retly- fous asaociations, As to the forelgn polloy of France, Sf.

Icgisintion. Ata meoling of the Tory membora of both Houses, hetd at the Carlton Club yesterday, the opinion was expreased that the House of Tords should refusy to consider the Employers’ Lin- Dility bill, the Hares and Rabbits bitl, and othor measures introduced by the Government. Shotild the Lords act on this opinion, thore fs no doubt thoy will greatlystrengthon thongitation against tholr logislative existence. THE CONCLAVE AND THE GRUMBLERS. A couple of the Chicago newspapers have undertaken to voice the dissatisfaction which hos arisen from some of thodisappolutnients, -discomforts, and inconveniences that wore experienced during the Templars’ Conclave. After the style of too many of the newspa- pors published inthis country, these journals Present this one side of the cnse so negres- sively that their readers, luyIng aside their own observations, would conclude that the recent celebration was a complete fizzle. One of the grumblers’ organs lovela all its guns at tho Chairman of the ‘Trienntal Com- mittee, and fires at him with blurred nonpa- reiland involyed brevier. The othor makes a precipitate and gratuitous offortto disavow all responsibility for the affatr, so far as'Chi- cago is concerned, and thus seeks to disarm the criticism which the management was predestined to receive. Both reflect in an exaggerated and unfair degreo n very small proportion of the.citlzens of Chicago, and n still smaller proportion of the . visiting strangers, whether Templars or Inymen. ‘The fact is, that tho volce of the grumbler is always loudest In tho fond, and dlscontent ‘ manifests itself, sa bolstcrously and wnren- sonnbly that itis generally overestimated. ‘Tum Trunk has uo desire to deny or de- fend some of the obvious blunders that were matte. It is possible that the Chairman of the ‘I'rlennial Committee undertook moro than any one man could do well. It Is usually the case that ccntlemen are selected to serve on Committees rather on account of their prominence before the community than for nny special executive capacity, and tho result is that committee work in popular demonstrations fs rarely efficient. It goes without saying that Chicngo, os ® com- munity, has no responsibility for the short- comings or mishaps of tho Masonic celebra- tion, beenuse it was an undertaking of tho ‘Templar Association, But, when all this has been freely admitted, there reinains much to be proud of, and It nay bo safely asserted that thore is no other clty in the country where the same number of people could have been accommodated so comfortably ‘and en- tertaincd so handsomely, at so small a cost to the strangers, as In Chicago. ‘Those who recall thelr experiences in other clties upon occasions when not one-fifth as/ many strangers were congregated! will Indorse this statement. Ywo causes, both unavoldable, were re- sponsible In the main for the confusion, de lay, and annoyance that were Incident to cer- tain parts of the celebration. Ono was that the affair was too big; the othor was the ex- ceptionally warm weathtr of. the days on which the procession and the compatitive drill occurred. ; Nelther the ‘frienntal Committee nor its Chairman, nelther the ‘Templars as a body nor the people as a community, could drive away the strangers that cnine by legions from all sections of thocountry, ‘The population of Chicago was temporarily Incrensed by one- third, and this enormous mass of strangers, not mutvh Jess than 200,000 people, was rushed upon thy city Inone day, Such an influx of humanity would hinve startled any other community; the Chicago people, as a rule, kept cool and did their best to take eure of tho multitude, Tho private houses were freely, opened to visitors ‘after the immense hotel accommodations were ox- hauated, ‘Tha restaurants fed all that camo tothem as long as anything to cat was left in their kitchens. Weventureto say that no- body went away hungry,or suffered: from exposure, except from heut that could not be escaped. But the crowd was too great to ad- mit of comfort or’ satisfaction, It over- whelmed the managers of the affair, though itled tono disturbance, Confusion was tn- oyltable, and dissatisfaction n necessary re- sult. . 1f hackmen sometimes took udyvuntage of tho rush, it is not-more than the same class in other cles do in tho ordinary routine, 1f horse-cnra, stages, and other velticles proved to ba Insufficient to take care of tha people, it ia certain that the supply held out longer and did better service than vyould have been the caso elsewhere, Those who are abusing Chigago a3 9 clty, or tho management of the Conelava because they had to pay fiya cents for a ginus of water at tho Jockey Club Park, where 90,000 were gythered, and on so warm a day as Wednesday, or oven those who wanted beer and were forced: to pay ten cents 0 glass for that boverage, re- you! a very narrow mind which they would better conceal; such complaints ara only equaled by the grumbling at the payment of a Biualltentage fee, the aggregate revenue from which was about as a drop of water In abucket. when compared with the expenso of the woek’s entertalnment, ‘ ‘Tho oppressively warm weather was a natural misfortune, ,and tt was the more trying because ft rarely comes and fs never expected in Chicago, ‘Thera la an abldlng consolation, however, In ‘the reflection that the anina days would have been found more exhausting had tha multitude been assim: bled In any other accessiblo elty in the coun- try, It was the heat which caused go many of the Communderles to breuk ranks before the Hne of march had been completed on Tuesday. It wan the heat, in’ addition to the mistake of fssuing too many invitations, that made’ the Exposition batt {ngufferablo. It wos the heat that caused both delay and discomfort-at tho grounds whore the competitive aril! tuok place, It was tho heat that soured everybody's tem- ner and aggravated trifling annoyances Into grvat trials, But this heat was an Incident that can bo traced to no power which can bo called to account, and most of the peapla who endured it inust bo consolous of the fact that It would have been worse almost any- where olse at the samy the, * Of course there were wistakes; The pro- Jeoted ne of march was tog Jong, consider Ing the weather, Altogether too miahy in- vitationg were Issued to the ball, Ther) were, other nnnoyances that might posstbly have been averted had anybody yeen able to fore- see the magultude of the crowd. ‘But there was uw luvishyess about all parts of the entertalus ment which commanded respect even at ‘the cost of personal cousfort, Tho elaborate decorations of the streets and houses; the preparations that were so extensively made to care for guests and visitors; the extraor- dinary abundance of music thet was pro- vided: the freo opening of the tlicatres, and complimentary concerts at all the public technic display of Wednesday «night; and still other dotalls of tho hospitality shown to the strangers must fully compensate to nl from Chicaro people themselves, though it may be made the pretest. for misrepresenta- jlon by nowspapers in West St. Loutls (3fo.) and other cities which pretentiously assume torlval Chicago, -—__~ THE CENSUS OF TLLINOTS, 1880.

We publish this morning a large portion of imvery brillant speech delivered last night at Terre Haute, Ind. by Gen. "Ben Harrl- son, ‘The speech was an able review of tho gencral political questions af the day, but wo have selected thdse -portions which ex- plain the apeotal casa as it stands before tho people of Indiana, and on which thoy will vote at the October election, It !s somewhat humiliating to the American -doctrine of self-government that tho result of the election in Indiana, or In any State, “should depend on the fact whether there will be an honest election and an honest count nnd return of the votes. This fs nota new. state of things in Indiana, It has peen for many years admitted to bea reproach upon the character of Stato laws which rendered such dishonest etections possible, Coy, Hen- dricks and Gov. Baker, representing both parties, strongly represented the evils of this law, Heretofore w reatiynce of six months’ ‘In any partof tho State entitled any adult inale to. voto at any preelnct at which he might present binsulf on cluction-day, Rest- dence in tho county or ward was not requisit, and the voter of to-day frequently departed aftor depoalting Its ballotto be heard of or known in the State ne moro, ‘To amond the Constitution of Indiana re- quires that an aiwondment ninat be adopted by two buccussive Legislatures before bolng sudmitted to the people, nud, as the Leglalas ture meets biennially in Indigna, It requires four years to get an wmendment before tho people for rat}fication, Gen, Harridon explains in his speech the notorlaus enoymities practiced under tho ex-" jating law, and the long but eventually suce cessful efforts to have tie Legislature sub- wit the necessary amendwents on the qual- {feation of voters to the voters of the Btate.. Just before the election held on this sub- ject it aceurved to the Democratic tenders that anyreform In the way. of honest clec- tlons must bo injurious to the Democratic party, so'they conspired to defeat this suf- frage awendment ut the palls, It was, how- e¥er, too Inte; publlc opluion had been aroused on the subject, and that amendment, with several other aimendynents on a variety Fortu- || of subjects, was adopted by 8 large majority at tha special election.

In 1870 he presented the neces- sity of carrylig Indiana {n October as a rene son why he should be tiominated for Presl- dent, but Tiden outbid him at the Conven- tion, but put Hendricks on the ticket as Vioe-President. ‘Tho adoption of the ancudment to the In- diana Constitution changing tho election from October.to November destroyed fen- dricks’ consequence as a candidate.
