Evacuation or Matamonoa—Rerreemant oF Tus Frencu yrom Mrxico.—Matamoros, one of the chief ports and most important pointe on the coast of Mexico, was surrendered by the French troops to the liberals on the 234 of June. On the 16th ult. the French had been defeated and routed near the city, and having fled to ite defences were followed by the lib- erals, Two days afters strong outpost held by the imperial troops was also abandoned and the garrison added to that besieged in Matamoros. On the 234 the latter strongly fortified point was abandoned by the French and quietly occupied by the liberals. Thus the French retirement from Mexico promised some time since by Napoleon under the spur of neceasity for the presence of the troops nearer home, is being accelerated by the victories of the liberals, This last im- portant victory will give the latter additional courage and strength, and in opening « port to their commerce will naturally ald 6s well fs encourage them. It is worthy of notice that the evacuation and oceapation of the city wes condacted in « civilised manner and under the United States fiag. It isnot at all improbable that our forces on the frontier had something to do with accelerating the retreat of the French as well as decently conducting the occupation by the liberals, and that as mediator the United States commandant has boon © Little business on the quietly doing House of Commons.on the 18th of June, when definitely upon the principle of extending the suffrage or enlarging the constituency, but upon details upon the policy of fixing the suf- frage on a ratable.basis or a fixed rental. Tho bill, as proposed by the ministry, was com- plicated in its details, mixing up a rental fran- chise with a ratable franchise, and gave the opposition the very best opportunity of defeat- ing it, or rather of defeating the ministry, on these details, without being committed against the principle. The opposition took care, seem- ingly, to avoid being committed against the principle, though a portion of the conservative party doubtless are opposed to it, leaving the way open for any future action on their part should the Queen place the government in their hands. The press of London, and par- tioularly the Times, takes this view of the mat- ter, and by no means despairs of reform under another ministry, It is evident that the min- istry, which had a majority, has frittered away its power by bad management of this measure. The incubus of the Cabinet is the Premier, Earl Russell. He is too old and instinctively more conservative than the conservatives them- selves, He has never been in earnest on the question of reform, and has paralyzed the ef- forts of his more liberal colleagues. Mr. Glad- stone especially has been out of place in his association with “finality Russell.” We shall see now whether this ministry of combinations of old dead whigs and doctri- naires and progressive enlightened statesmen can stand. In our judgment no such associa- tion can continue to exist. The Queen must, sooner or later, and probably on this issue, change her cabinet. Russell must be laid on the shelf. Whether a coalition ministry, with Gladstone in it, can be formed, has to be seon. At all events the question of parliamentary re- form cannot be ignored. If Derby and Disraeli be called to form a ministry exclusively of the conservatives or a coalition ministry, the end will be the same, The popular sentiment of England is for reform, and Earl Derby or Dis- raoli will have to act as Sir Robert Peel acted with regard to the corn laws. That statesman, who had for a long period of his political life opposed the abolition of the corn laws, finally carried the measure for repealing those laws when he became the Premier and saw that pub- lic opinion demanded the repeal. We mayex- pect to see something like this occur on the question of roform and with the Derby- Disraeli party. The fight in the House of Commons is for place aiid power, and a new ministry may concede as much to popular opinion, or more than the so-called liberal Russell Cabinet. England is destined to progress, The great branoh of the Anglo-Saxon race in America is roacting with wonderful power upon the com- mon sense and understandiag of !oclishmon. Mr. Brightmade an important «txicment which shows the progress of democratic ‘eo: in the Old Country, He said that the American newer papers were eagerly read in Wrglind nov more so than the British, and that tie ter to demooratic views was irresiatibie, may be temporarily doferred, there may '» changes of ministry in England, but the end is inevitable—thcre must and will be reform dinner given by the Chinese merchants of San Francisco, the other day, to Hon. Anson Bur- lingame, our Minister to China, and General R.B, Van Valkenburgh, our Minister to Japan, on route for Asia, was, according to our enthu- siastic reporter’s report, a regular Celestial banquet, with all the modern California im- provements. It is recorded in the chronicle: of the mission of the famous Kay-leb Kew- Shing to Kwang-Tang and Shanghae that ata festival given him by the Imperial Commis- sioner, Jo Lin, our Ambassador was specially pleased with a toothsoms stew, which he guessed was ducks, and elgnified his opinion by a nod tothe high and mighty Lin, ands “Quack, quack, quack td shaking his head with a smile, said No, no. He no quack. He von bow-Wow-wow!” Kew- Shing thereupon subsided, saying in reply to the princely Lin’s offer of another plat of the stew, that he had already dined toe much, so tempting had been the imperial delicacies spread before him, and especially that “bow- wow stow.” It is furthermore recorded by certain “out- side barbarians” who have penetrated the inner circle of the “Central Flowery King- dom,” that in the interior thereof bad eggs are esteemed a luxury, that young rats are not for common folks, and the decayed fish are considered gamey. So likewise is it recorded that a species of Celestial oyster, the half shell of which will hold from two to ten gallons, is most esteemed by tue natives when the odor thereof knocketh down “the red-headed bar- barian of the West” at twenty paces. None of these violent Oricatal daintica, it appears, were tried upon Messrs. Burlingame and Van Valkenburgh by the San Fran- cisco Celestial. They had Tong-wow-feo, a China oyster fricassee (a dried oyater with the flavor of choice old dried codfish, or Dutch cheese that has been two or three times round the world), and they had In-wor,or mandarin bird nest soup, and ching-don-gee—boiled sbark’s fin; and buck-look-kan, or sinews of reindeer, and numerous other varietics, winding up with cakes, including kie-dan-gaw, boo-chie, time-sum and hong-chew, and fruits, embracing bow-low, ray-la, hong-chaw and li-chee-kan ; and teas and wines, among which were oolong and sam-s00—this sam-soo being a double jointed rum, the extract of rice and sugar eane, equivalent to an “arf-an-arf” of Mexican pulque and Jersey apple-jack. From this Celestial festival at San Francisco our two Ministers to the eastern flank of Asia wont on their way rejoicing. But what is the moral or meaning of all this? It means that the day approaches when the commoree with all the United States of five bundred millions of the poople of Asia and the adjoining seas will pase through San Francisco, as the bulk of the commerce of Europe with this continent pemes through New York. It meand that these Chinese merchants In San Francisco have got wind of the coming Pacific Ratirosd, agg that they expect Mensra, Burlingame end Van Vél- kenburgh to carry the news to China and Japan, together with the fn: that a line of steamships between San Francisco and Centon is under way, 10 moans that the day lo not fer of NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 4 1886. wher Chinese tees and silks, in exchange for American cotton and California wines, will avoid both the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Horn by s straight passage across the Pacific, -@% that these Chinese merchants in San Fran- cisco expect to ehare in the profits of this enormous direct traffic between Asia and America. / Four Millions of Dollars for the Pope of Rome. His Holiness the Pope spplies through his financial agents, Duncan, Sherman & Co., fora loan of four millions of dollars, We sincerely hope that he may get the money. The tempo- ral affairs of his Holiness have not been very prosperous of late years, and certaialy he ought to be furnished with sufficient fands to live and die like a gentleman. In the agents whom he has gelected the Pope has displayed great common sense. Duncan, Sherman & Co. are an excellent firm of very respectable Epls- copalians, and are far preferable for the Pope’s purposes to any Jew bankers, We presume that with their contributions to the cause of Ireland and the Fenian bonds and the mopey sent over to their families in the Green Isle, the poor Irish porters, walters and servant girls have but « few dollars on hand to lend to the Pope,’ But there.are many rich Irishmen who ought to subscribe, and thousands of Puseyite Episcopalians—who are not eo very different from Roman Catholics after all— should come forward and assist his Holiness in his pecunisry difficulties, It trikes us, however, that the secarity which the Pope offers is not very good. The Papal territories and the revenues of the Papal States are in an exceedingly precarious con- dition. The [talian government have just sequestrated all the church property they can seize, as Henry the Kighth did in England and as Maximilian the First and Last undertook to do in Mexico, following up the policy of Juarez, In the war which has broken out in Europe the Pope will surely go to the wall. The papacy bas completed the natural age of all temporal Powers, and it must dic, If the Pope had taken good advice, yielded his territories to Italy with a pious grace, and relied wholly upon his extensive spiritual dominions, the most of his troubles might have been avoided; but now he will be crushed between the hostile cannon and forced to relinquish those treasures upon earth which, as @ good Christian, he ought to have willingly exchanged for trea- sures in Heaven, where moth and rust do not corrupt, nor thieves break through and steal, nor the Italian and Prussian governments, backed by France, declare war against Aus- tria. But the Pope, infallible as he may be in spiritual affairs, chose the wrong course tem- porally, and the result is that he -is obliged to apply to us fora loan,’ offering us no other eecurity than the ferritories and thé revenue of which he is soon to be deprived. Nevertheless, this is deficiency that may be easily remedied. The cash box of his Holi- ness is empty, but he atill-holds the keys of St. Peter. Let him add a plenary indulgence to each coupon attached to the bonds which Dun- | can, Sherman & Co, have for gale, and bis lean | will soon be ata premium bigber tham gold. 1 bull fo this effect would cause ampre- ‘among the financla! balls | of Wail atr BE body oun find plenty of | loans in which te increase his momey at good interest; but the Pope's loan would be the only one that could be quoted in the next world, as well as fa this. A lien upon the golden streets and jow-lled walls of Paradise would be much more satisfactory than the seourity of a smal! lot of ground that may soon pass out of the Pope’s porsession. Nor is his Holiness without a precedent for such a use of plenary indul- gencer. Pope Leo the Tenth sent Tetzel into Germany to dispose of them to all who con- triby ied money for the rebuilding of the Cathe- dcal of St. Peter. It is true that this act indi- rectly occasioned.the great reformation which Luther led, but there need be no fear of any such conseqnences in this age und this coun- try. On the contrary, we have so many con- firmed sinners among our politicians, financiers, lawyers, clergymen and high and low society, that the loan, if backed by a plenary indul- gence, would be taken up faster than the bonds could be printed. Then if the fortunes of war made it necessary for the Pope to leave Europe he would find a warm welcome here and a large balance gt his bankers, and we would soon fit’ him up a*houseon the Fifth avenue and build him a marble cathedral that would cause him to forget St. Peter's. We beg his Holiness to think over this practical idea very seriously, His loan may not go off well at present, be- cause the security is not substantial ; but let plenary indulgences be affixed to the coupons and we guarantee that Duncan, Sherman & Co. will have their hands full of orders, not only from Roman Catholics but from all sorts of Protestant sinners, 1 ¢ ted excitente Tus Excise Law—Tae Recorpen’s Dect sion.—There appeared in our columns yester- day a decision of the Recorder, delivered in the Court of General Sessions, in which he pro- nounces the new Excise act unconstitutional. As several of the journals have muddled this question, it may be well to define its present status. This is the first decision which has any practical effect, The deeision of Judge Car- dozo was in a civil case between private par- ties, and the magistrates and police could not, therefore, accept it aa.an adjudication for the people. But now, in a suit between the people and the liquor dealers, there is judgment against the people, who are bound by it until the people shall sncceed in some higher tribunal. The police judges now refuse to hear com- plaints under the Excise act, so that injanctions are not necessary; and Judge Russel instructed the Grand Jury yesterday that they must not now entertain complaints. Thus if the police do arrest even the licensed for keeping open after midnight or on Sunday (except under the Sun- day law previously existing), the magistrates will immediately discharge. The Supreme Court cannot review Judge Cardozo’s opinion; only the General Term of the Common Pleas can do that So that what the Times says about a Supreme Court Judge pocketing the opinion is incorrect. The Supreme Court oan review the decision of the Court of Sessions; but, as the General Term does not assemble until November, and a decision cannot be ex- pected until, perhaps, December, nor reach the Court of Appeals until January, when the Legislature also assembles, there seems to be © practical nullification from this last decision which the Common Pleas one could not pre- dace, Hhusume Acr vos Cavana to Eran THe Ustow.—Mr, Banks, of Massachusetts, Chairman, of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, has intro- duced into the House of Representatives s bill of more than ordinary importance and signif- cance. It provides that the “States” of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Canada East and Can- ada West, and the territories of Selkirk, Sas- katchewan and Columbia, shall be constituted and admitted States and territories of the Union whenever notice shall be deposited in the Department of State that the governments of Great Britain and of the provinces have ac- cepted the propositions made by this govern- ment in relation thereto, and the President shall issue his proclamation accordingly. It is proposed that the United States shall assume the provincial debt at a rate not exceeding five per cent interest, as follows :—Cenada West, thirty-six millions five hundred thousand dol- lars; Canada East, twenty-nine millions ; Nova Scotia, eight millions ; New Brunswick, seven millions; Newfoundland, three millions two hundred end fifty thousand; Prince Ed- ward Island, two millions, It is also pro- posed that the United States ehall pay ten mil- lions to the Hudson Bay Company. Altogether tho sum amounts to one hundred and three- quarter millions. We confoss this is rather « }. cool proposition for this warm weather; but we perceive in it the outlines if not the reality of p project long entertained by the dominant political power. The restoration of the Southern States and their ropresentation in Congress the republicans are aware cannot be much longer delayed. In that event the bal- ance of power they foar will be against them, and to remedy that difficulty thoy pro- pose to annex Canada and carvo it up into whatever number of States may be neceszary to enable them to retain the political preponder- ance, This is a grand scheme and may be the reason for Mr. Seward’s harsh and sam- mary proceedings against the Fenians. He wants that Canadian pear, when fully ripe, to drop into the lap of his own party.
