When Alexander de- stroyed Tyre, and thus tnjured that great high- way of commerce between Europe and Asla on which had grown up Tyre itself, Baalbec and Palmyra, he showed his appreciation of the oentral position of Egypt by founding the ofty of Alexandria, The wisdom of Alexander was justified by the proud position which Alexandria afterwards attained. Ina literary and commercial point of view it had for many ages no rival, and for population, wealth, and imperial grandeur it had no aupe- rior but Rome. In spite of the many vicissi- tudes of fortune it never altogether lost its proud place until the whole Mediterranean trade was destroyed by the discovery of a new route to India via the Cape of Good Hope in 1497, The value of Egypt commercially: has been seen and recognized by all great rulers from Alexander downwards, If Alexander founded the city which still bears his name the Cesars patronized it, and the first Napo- lean was ambitious to restore it to its ancient splendor. It was the discovery of the new route to the far East by Vasco de Gama which caused Egypt to be temporarily forgotten.

It appears as if the Oatholic Powers of Europe were moving towards the arrangement of a more general and complete politico- religious union, with the sanotion, perhaps under the inspiration, of Rome. We have to-day the revival of a rumor to the effect that France, Austria and Italy have conoluded a treaty, by virtue of which the government in Florence is to support Napoleon with a con- tingent of fifty thousand men in the event of a war, and to hold the oity of Viterbo as a border point of the Papal territory. We have algo the superadded assertion that Prussia is to take charge of the keys of St. Peter and garrison Rome with twelve thousand mep should the French forces evacuate the Eternal City. Victor Emanuel may, perhaps, be ab- solved for his liberalism and some minor pec- cadillos by the coming council in Rome ; King William of Prussia may be accepted as the representative of his very many German Catholic subjects ; the Austrian Emperor will, perhaps, explain his course on the school question, with his action towards Bishop Linz; but where does the ‘in case of war” apply?

The news | ~ neem em me eS Pe ett ol More Eccleatastical Squabbles. Watering Places and Watering Place Core The excitement in Chicago on sccount of respondents, ~ the trial of Rev. Mr. Cheney, for unauthorized omission or the words “regenerate” and ‘‘re- generation” front the “Book of Comm on Prayer,” had not subslded when another great excitement was occasioned there by the As- sistant Bishop of Kentucky, Rev. Dr. Cum- mins, who preached last Sunday at Trinity church, in that city, in direct opposition to a “very autocratic and bitter letter” from Bishop Whitehouse, of Illinois, accusing him of stir- ring up trouble in the diocese, and formally forbidding him from coming there to preach or for any purpose whatever. The Chicago Evening Post thus states the onse, adding that Dr. Cummins, deeming it a monstrous as- sumption for the Bishop to prevent a clergy- man in good standing from preaching at the request of a church, especially when that ohurch was his former charge, and believing it necessary for the vindication of his own repu- tation and rights, paid no attention to the mandate. It is a repetition, on a larger scale and with more conspicuous opponents, of the famous Tyng and Boggs case. Bishop White- house, like Boggs, has all “thigh churchmen” and the letter of ecclesiastical law on his side, if not the spirit of that Gospel which the founder of Christianity bade his disciples go and preach to every creature. Dr. Cummins, like young Tyng, is sustained by “‘low church- men” everywhere and by the sympathy of the general public. To outsiders, who care but little about the difference be- tween theological tweedledum and tweedledee, and who wonder why Dr. Whitehouse, with his fondness for ritualism and his reverence for authority, does not aspire to be Pope of the Church of Rome, and why the Cumminses and the Tyngs of the Protestant Episcopal Church, with their impatient disregard of its regula- tions, do not found sects of their own, it isa pretty quarrel as it stands. The quarrel between the Bishop of Illinois and the Rev. Mr. Oheney involves points of interest and importance to all American citi- zens. Mr. Cheney may have unwisely vio- lated the prescribed forms of his Church by omitting certain words from the Book of Com- mon Prayer, but it is not surprising that the community in which he lives should justify him in appealing to the civil courts to restrain Bishop Whitehouse, at once prosecutor, selector of the jury and president of an ecclesiastical court, ‘organized to convict and appointed to condemn,” from proceeding to remove him from his rectorate and break up his business and profession. The ground on which Mr. Cheney asked for-and obtained an injunction was that his accusers were ‘‘combining and confederating” to injure his character, and that their actions in the premises were ‘‘con- trary to equity and good conscience.” The Bishop bas postponed the trial until the 29th of July, and vehemently protests “against all claims of the civil tribunal to interfere, whether by equitable proceedings or in any manner of supervision and control in the ecclesiastical discipline of the Church in the trial of its ministers.” Brigham Young like- wise protests against all claim of the civil tribunals to interfere with polygamy as prac- tised by the wealthier members of the Mor- mon Church. But both Brigham Young and Bishop Whitehouse must be reminded that in this republic the separation of Church and State is complete, and so-called ecclesiastical courts have no more legislative authority than an ‘irresponsible debating society.”’ Their decisions cannot override the rights of a citizen or the laws of the land. In the heat of the dog days we confess to finding the letters of our watering place cor- respondents very refreshing, and sometimes very tantalizing. Notting short of a strong poetic temperament could desorivé #3 they do the fascinations of these summer retreats. Tho Croquet, boating, balls, clambakes, youth, beauty and even love-making to be found there, are all made to flit before us in a kind of panoramic view, until we feel as the Pori might be supposed to feel who was lucky enough to get a glimpse of heaven through the “‘half-open portals.” So great, indeed, ara the attractions described that the wonder ia that the hotels there are not filled to overflow- ing, instead of being, as is the oase, half empty. Dull times have no doubt something to do with this, and the high rate of charges for living there must prove another drawback ; and, lastly, comes the fact that the tide of fashionable summer excursions has set in for Enrope, so that we hear of our countrymen turning up there on every highway and by- way between London and Constantinople. The number of Americans in Europe is probably not less than’ fifty thousand, and if we estimate each one’s expenditure at from five to ten dollars in gold a day, we may form an estimate of the enormous cost of ab- senteeism. They will serve, however, to givo Europeans some idea of the wealth and re- sources of this vouatry, although for the mere pleasure-secker or tourist in search of health our own watering places might furnish enough to meet all their requirements; while tfie lover of the picturesque and the more thought- ful might find nature on a grander scale and more diversified in beauty on this Continent than anything they will meet with in the Old World. To return to our watering place cor-, respondents, whose descriptions have so often charmed the readers of the Herarp, their anxiety to promote the interests of the places they represent has sometimes, we think, caused them to atrain a point in estimating tho influx of strangers to their neighborhood, for there has seldom been a season in which the “fashionable watering places,” as they aro atyled, were less deserving than now of the name, The Liquor Dealers and the Tennessee Election. The liquor dealers in Tennessee aro out ia an address, through their executive committee, proclaiming their grievances and demanding redress, They say :—‘‘The General Assembly of the State having been deaf to our reagon- able and just demands, the necessity arises for the liquor dealers in each and every county of the State to immediately organize, concentrate their strength and insist that the candidates. for the Legislature shall pledge themselves to redress our grievances before they receive our support.” They express the hope that should such an organization be too late to accomplish anything in the coming election it will be pre- pared to press its demands upon the Legisla- ture next year, It is somewhat singular that the liquor question has not been heretofore: in- fused into the present campaign in Tennessee, Perhaps it has been because both parties thought the canvass would be conducted with sufficient spirit without an appeal to the ar- dent, Be that as it may, it is certain the liquor element all over the country will have to organize effectually, or their interests will be swamped by the extraordinary exertions the temperance men are making every- where to obtain the balance of power ia the State Legislatures. Sometimes they overstep the mark, as has been the case, apparently, in Massachusetts; but, neverthe- less, the operations of the prohibitory people there show the animus of the party, and,, if the liquor men would preserve what they claim.to be their rights, they must bestir themselves right smartly, Dirgot TrapE BgtweEN SAVANNAH AND Evrorg.—General Joseph E. Johnston, on be- half of a committee appointed for the purpose, has presented a report to a meeting of citizens of Savannah setting forth the advantages of that port as the terminus of the projected line of steamships from North Germany. There are several other contestants for this prize, in- cluding Norfolk, Wilmington, Charleston and other Southern ports, But, after all, we should not be surprised to find that the pro- jectors of the proposed line should finally come to the conclusion that the port of New York is convenient enough for all practical purposes of steam communication between the two hem- ispheres. However, it is well that every mat- ter of local enterprise in the South should be agitated and encouraged at this time, Smoxe.—Parties who have been observing all the outgoings and incomings, and sayings and doings of the President at Long Branch, protest that they are no wiser now than. they were a month ago touching his views. on the latg Virginia election, the approaching Ten- nessee election, Mexico, Cuba, Spain, the Ala- bama claims, the Irish Church bill, the Ecu- menical Council, the Suez Canal, the Chinese question, the French Cable and New York and New Jersey politics, and that on many other things of public importance he is equally reti- cent. They say that every attempt to sound him ends in smoke—always smoke, nothing but smoke—and they can’t see the joke. “Woy Taz RePustioan Party [Norgases” ig attempted to be shown by a radical paper in Alabama. The writer, however, fails to recite the result of the Virginia election, and the hubbub and disaffection created in the radical ranks by the distribution of the spoils of office, the enforcement of the Prohibitory Liquor law among the German republicans, and other sig- nificant incidents that presented themselves recently upon the political horizon as evidences going to show “why the republican party in- creases,” The fact is, the republican party is split essentially upon the question of the spoils—and it is not necessary to go. out of the limits of the city of New York to prove the fact. Inter-Metropolitan Travel. The present period of the year is one of re- markable inactivity in real estate transactions.
