LITERATURE. THE AMERICAN CONSTITUTIO! ‘VIEWs OF A GERMAN WRITER ON THE REPUB- LIC AND ITS FOUNDERS, ‘Tne ConstiTUTioNaL amp Poutical HistorY oF 7THE Usrrep States. By Dr. H. Von Hoist. Vol. 1, 1750-1835. Translated from the rinan by J. J. Lalor and A. B. Mason. Callaghan & Co., Chicago. This simgularly candid and able book is by a profes- sorin the University of Frieburg, Dr. H. Von Holst. Dr. Von Holst has brought to bis task German in- dustry and the advantages which come of German habits of scientific study. He evinces, besides, a strong natural discernment and an eneryy of judgment which are the gift of no race or nationality, but which are Dr, Von Holst’s own, The opinion which he pronounce: ‘pon our constitution and upon our constitutional bi tory would, we suppose, be said to be very unfavor- able, Dr. Von Holst himself seems to think that his book will not be well received among us; but he possesses one opinion which of itself ss sufficient to make him our friend. There 1s nothing in his book to indicate that he prefers one form of government to another, He considers ail democracies to be subject to manitold but he recognizes that democracy is the only form of society possible among us, and he believes that through our many mistakes we are advancing to a higher and better state. But of our constitution aud its iramers he takes a view en- tirely different from that held by our American writers and by most of our foreign critics. When he came to ‘this country (the author has passed some years among us) he came prepared to admire. Laboulaye, he tells us, Was the butier who packed his knapsack. He was for a long time on the wrong trail because he was tor- ever looking about for “something particular’? some- thing diferent from what he had seen and read of else- where. He had imbibed the impression that our con- stitution was the product of preternatural wisdom and virtue and that its framers, the “fathers,” were demi- gods He only reached solid and satisfactory ground when he discovered that the ‘fathers’ were not demi- gods, but men, and that the constitution, instead of being the perfect result of superhuman political wisdom, was by no means periect, but simply the best constitu- tion that was possible at the time. It will be remem- bered that this latter opinion 1s the one put forth in the Federalist, Hamilton only claimed that the Convention had done wonderfully well, considering the difficulties they bad to contend with, Dr, Vou Hoist writes Concerning the constitution in a very different strain, ‘Bnd one much less flattering to our feelings than De Tocqueville, We have no doubt that in the main he Is much nearer right than the Frenchman, as it is patural he should be, seeing how much the recent bistory of the country had helped to elucidate the Suvject of the coustitution, But Dr. Von Holst cmits to say some very true things which Do Tocqueville @aid, De Tocqueville saw itttle to admire in our Revo- lution, The spectacie of a people struggling gallanuy Against tyranny was by uo weaus new in the world, fund the Odds against us were not so groatas we had Imagined. What De Tocqueville dia admire, what he said bad never betore becn seen in the history ol the World, was the attitude taken vy tho people ai the time of the aduption of the constitution. ‘The people saw themselves driiting w tnaucial, political and perhaps social ruin, and, pausing in the midst of th contusion, ' they’ were able to set up and obey a government which many of them hated and Which nearly ali of them feared, But from Dr Vou Hoist’s book we should infer that this was by no means ‘& hew and surprising thing in the history of the worid, He has little to say in praise of any of the ‘futhers,”? unless it be Hamiiton, and even with regard to him we are left in doubt as to wnetuer Dr, Vou Huist considers bim a great statesman. But oi the sort of comments which Dr. Von Hoist omits to make we have had so much trom other writers that We can Well lorgive the absence of it in his work, Tne theory of the formution oi the coustitu- tion which he so ably presents, we think, must be ac- Cepied as in the main correct, ‘Dr, Von Hoisi’s theory 1 the constitution is, (hat thouga far from pertect, though ull o/ fauils, hau it not Leen for these imper- fections, it could never have been at ull, The repupii- cans, alter bitterly fighting the constitution, suddenly turned round and outdid the federalists in their devo- Mou to it, In the creeds of ali parties the coustitution became supremy; but it Was made to mean aaything wWich the parties wished it to mean, A constitution Which leit it in doubt whether the government or the State was sovereign, whether siavery was a municipal institution or an instituuion of the country, could not be caiied perteet, and certainly shouid not be held up for the absolute imitation of the world. But it was absviutely necessary to buve a government, and it was hecessary that that government should not’ be made so Birong that the States would not accept i. Slavery was, ol course, a great evil; but Was it right to break up the mation w get rid ot ‘it? Dr, Von Hoist himself Seems to think tual it would have been betver if ihe Datuie between opposing priucipies had been earlier brought on. But tue national sentuument was so long fn forming that slavery, allied trom tne frst with the doctrine of State sovereignty, had time to intreneh itself ina position of aimost impreguabie sirengtu be- fore the country was ready to attack it It might have been possible to Wage a successiul fight with slavery and State sovereignty eariier, aud to do what we have done lately ata miucn less cost. Yet who can tell? But Dr. Von iH ‘3 strictures upou the aly of the North are therefere none the jess «deserved. His account of the siavery quarrel is one of the most —_ interesting parts of the book. Dr. Von Holst takes the position that the worid is mach mistaken in iis notion that the deeper shadows of slavery did not appear tll a com- paratively recent date. It is true (uat the articles of the so-calied “association,” adopted by the lirst Con- Jreas, in 1774, forbade the importation of siaves, and it B true that this prohibition Was repeated in April, 1776 Bat, en #0 @arly us the time of the Declar independence, but a lew mouths later the sug; vf interest had already begun to be listened to by the Bouth, in the drait be Declaration Jefferson had bitterly complained of George ILL. because be bad for, Didden the attempts on tue part ol the colonies “to it or restrain (his execrable commerce."’ But S8age WAS Siruck OUL AL the Tequesi of the delo- gates irom South Carolina and Georgia, ‘The encroach- hints of slavery increased irom tunis time on, The barbarous doctrine that it Was incumbent upon a tree Regro to prove himseii iree rather than ior Lis captors jo prove him @ siave wus subst.ntiaily adopted by Congross as early as 1801. In tuat year it was resolved shat the laws of Maryland and Virginia should remain In force within the District oi Coluimtia, According to these laws a negro who could not prove his freedom Was liable to iwprisonment, and was he not able to pay Nhe fees and rewards given by law for apprehending ys he was to be sold as a slave, Tuis bistory in the main may be said to be rather nore favorabie to the federalisis than to the repubii- dans. But the author's treatment even of them is by do meabs jaudalory. Strictly aud legally he holds that jhe national party was right” It was, of course, right jm the desired to accomplish, but its theory of the uaturo of the government was legally the correct pme. So jar as concerned the action of the Congress yoward England there was no legal right whatever; the Act was simply revolutionary, But tue States did’ not pats from a position i dependence upon England to ve tree and independent;” they passed at ouce into a position of suvordination to the Congress. The “peo- assembled in Congress, made tue Deciarauon. he States bucame “free and independent” only so tar As the new government gave them freedom and inde- pendence. ‘his was the law of the matter undoubt- daly. ‘1 am no longer a Virginian,’? said Patrick Henry; “1 am an Awerican.” But when the war which had held shem together ceased ths peopl jo remember their accustomed State fecling. Th jrown up not as Americans, but as New Yorkers, Vir- fiians, Be., and whey could not change ina day. Tue W a..d reason were on one side; the lacts were on the | dther, and we understand Dr. Von Hoist to say thatthe ution, though very impertect, was the best poss compromise between law and reason aud the This history is, as the title says, a constitutional Bistory. Jt contains little that is personal, aud the | wuthor’s few characterizations of tue great politicians of the time do not strike us as equal to the rest o/ the work. Of John Quincy Adams be says:—‘Adams, doth as astatesman wud an individual, resembled his lather in many respects. He Was of an caruest, deeply Morai nature, and knew how to stamp this character upon bis administration in a degree which, compared with ali the following Presidencies, makes an ex- tremely favorable impression. Political ambition was Ost Promineut characteristics, but this did ate in him, as it did iu his lather, into morbid vanity. He did not know what the fear o/ man Meant. In the siruggle tor the right of petition, which be alterward carried on alone iu the House of Kepre- sentatives ior long while, he found a cer- tan satisfaction in driving to frenzy by bis | biung satire the representatives of the slaveboiding interest, who (hen heid aimost absolate power. But his scorn for ali tho arts of demagogues ot ipfrequently turned nto radeness, and bis tirm- Bess into obsiuacy; wu yet, atthe same time, under fertain circumsiances he let himself ve influenced too much by others. During bis ivng diplomatic service be bad acquired a habit of prudent examination, whica sometimes led in the more diflicult questions to irreso- ton and vaciliation. ‘This is, however, partly due to the jact that sober, statesmaniike tuougnt and idealism were pot properly (used togetier in bis nature.’” We are inclined to admit as true the author's state- Ment that no one has written Upon this subject so soberly as himself.

HEPWORTH’S CRUISE It THE NETTIE—YACHTING IN BLUE WATERS— 4 PARSON'S IDEAS ON YACHT BUILDING—A GOOD WAY FOR CLERGYMEXM TO SPEND THEIR SUMMER VACATIONS, The Rev. George H. Hepworth, of this city, loves the sea as the Rey, Mr. Murray loves the Adirondacks, and he writes about it with the enthusiasm of a genuine old salt His story of a summer cruise in his beautifal yacht, the Nettie, about to be published by the Harpers, under the title of “Starboard and Port,” is a delightful little book, as exhilarating as the ocean breezes, 18 opens a new world to clergymen in search of relaxation and health during their short summer respite from the laborsof the pulpit and the parish. Even the booming Talmage, who has preached against watering places and the varied temptations at Saratoga, Newport and Long Branch, could not object to this de- lighttul way of spending the clerical vacation, Not every clergyman, to be surc, can afford to own a yacht. But this is not necessary. Let a number of them club together and hire one tor a month, with a compe- tent captain and crew. The expense of such a cruise need not exceed the collective expenses incurred at the watering places, seaside resoris and camp ineeting grounds, while the mental and physical results would be fur more beneficial, There would be little danger of ennui on such a cruis at should it be feared that the fickie tempors of wind and wave would not afford suf- ficient varity, that desideratum might be secured by muking up the club with an eye to theological differ- enees, Tho tedium of a calm, for instance, would easily be dissipated by a hvely tilt on creeds or on some of the thousand-and-one minor points of doctrine upon which theologians disagree. ‘The Rey. Mr. Hepworth is an enthusiast on the sub- ject of yachting. He has a stroug conviction that this glorious pastime may be made, and will yet become, a very much more important matter than it Js at present, It is only a pastime now, but years hence, he thinks, it will become an element of national strength. Mr. Hepworth’s views on this subject are highly sensible and worth quoting. He say I think I see what this pleasure may become in the fu- ture, and am somewhat impatient, perhaps, for the con- sumiration, Our yacht models baye in times past had a Kreat influence on ‘the werchant marine. ‘They have put to the blush those old syuare-beaded vessels which used liter- ally vo tight their way across the ocean, and one by one they, have disnppeared from our waters, ‘Now we lave stups more comely in shape, more fleet of toot and equally useful Jor purposes of trade.’ But ot lute years yachts have be- come toys dd lost eir prestige teachers, They have very little, ything, to do with progress in marine archi- tecture, and are looked upom as simply an extravagance in cost, shape and canvae. 1 dm looking forward hopefull; will not anchor at Newport. ‘he Sound is the primary school, while Cape Cod is tho high school of American yachtsmen. We have solved the problem of speed, and. ¢: soot over smooth water like # ricochettiue bullet. With centre board up when ranning before the wind, we can Leat the world, The next question to be setiled, and the far more important one, isthe question of weatherly qualities, If we should dare to rau our fieet into tue teeth of a down- right northeaster, we might rattle everyting to pieces, but we should return wiser for the experience, und, I doubt not, resulved on a radical change. There is 80 much that is admirable in this national determination to dv the best thing that can be done that I feel very sure the whole character of yachting is to suffer a change of base in the next ten yeurs.” We shall yet have the best sen boats as Weil us the fastest craft of which any people can boast, and we sbail yet be as proud of the way in which our veasels will fight & vale as we ure now of the swiftness with whieh they glide over smooth water. The English yacht is The ideal modei is in the future. altoxether too clumsy, and the American altogether too tender. ‘The Englishman is narrow und deep ; the American wide and flat, It is not impossible to combine the best qualities of these two styles, and then we shall leave the Sound aud take to deep water. Yachting in America has not yet reached the dignity it possesses in England, We Americans “play on the water, while the English live on it”? With us yachting is the sport of un alternoon, and at most consists of a trip along the shore of Long Island, Our cralt, speak- ing ip general terms avd with some notable exceptions to be hereafter mentioned, seidom venture on long voyages, and would do themselves little crodit in a northeast gale. The defects of American yachts are ‘tus séc forth from Mr. Hepworth’s point of view They hava generally very graceful lines, great breadth of beam, which makes them roomy and couifortable under deck,’ but are often so overloaded with spars and eanvas Viut thoy are unfit tor rough outside work. In our whole fleet there are hardly half a dozen boats which an old satior would pronounce snugly trimmed. The mainboom runs out- board ‘as though the mast had failon over the stern, and when the yacht is fying betore a ten knot breeze the foot of the mainsail slaps tle water, and makes such @ swash that all the comfort of sailing is ‘changed into anxiety for the Tixging. Our topmasts, too, run up to such au incredible ght that when the boat begins to roll in a seaway it 2b she Would uever stop until she had jerked to the time when our fleet ihe crowning ae‘ect, and one which we aro be, acknowledge, is the shape of the bows. They that they uot only ent through the water when it is smooth, bust Igo cut into it avd under it when there 11 sea- way ou, ‘The only thing that holds the head of # yacht up in rough weucher is its preposterous Lowsprit und Jibboom, The fiskerman i 0 tascioned xbove the water ling forward that when she dives into a sea she has wood enough to kee heron top of the water, There is much breads by the catheads that e plunges she | instantly rises, while the yacht, which has no wood forward ss knife, plunges aud siays there until ber as the tore rigging Is all under water, As an bie consequence the whole headgeur is endangered at a time when the pilot boat goss Iuughiogly by with dry ecks.

He loves ‘the sea, the open sea,” and im planning his summer excursion had in view the wild storms that beat upon the rugged coast of Nova Scotia and tne foggy shores of Newfoundland, He sent the Nettio to New London to have her masis cut down and her main- boom shortened. Her sticks were preposterously long and made her roll bedly ina heavy swell, while the mainboom ran outboard so far that, when the wind was on the quarter and she was runing irce, the end of tt dipped as she swayed and threatened to carry away the masthead, She was in fine trim for racing in smooth water, and had many time shown ber weke to her rivals. It went hard with him toaiter her proportions; but she would have to meet whatever came, and some- thing had to be sacrificed to comiort and satiety. The Netue was accordingly carefully examined 1m the huil, all her running rigging was overhauled and everything done to it her for the hard work before her. This done, Mr. Hepworth and his compagnons de woyage—Ruiom Stigand, Bertric and Algar—went on board in Boston | Harbor on the 6th of July and sailed merrily away. As to who these companions were Mr. Hepworth gives no clew. A certain {riskiness of characier forbids the Supposition that they were a quartet of deacons trom his church, unless they were deacons very much dis- guised, Besides these personages there Was an oxpe- renced sailing master, a suflicient crew, a pilot anda Mongolian sieward who was quite an original charac- ter. Fora few di alter the start the amateur sailors were very zealous in taking their turn at the wheel and their waich at night; but our readers will not be sur prised to learn that their enthusiasm did not stand the Vest of a chill, rainy night, and that they all came tothe conclusion that it might destroy the discipline of the crew to interfere in any way with their duties Besides it was noticed that the Captain made up his slate with- out any reference to the amateurs, setting his regular watches from the forecastie, and then asking the former how they would like to pass the might Thus it came avout that they gave themselves up to the enjoyment of the trip and leit the working of the | yacht to the sailing master and bis men. Anda most | Pleasant time they bad of i, Alter stopping at the Isies of Shoais and at Portiand they made a stretch to | Halitax, thence through the Strait ot Canso to Fort Hood and thence to Cape Gaspé, just below the mouth of the St.Lawrence. Here and there the party landed for fishing and shooting excursions, which Mr. Hep- worth describes with the zest and hearty enthusiasm of agenuine lover of outdoor sports On board the yacht time never was allowed to hang heavy on ther hands. ‘The whole cruise to the St. Lawrence and back was ono long delight, unmarred by a single mishap, except the loss of a boat on the return voyage. We afe sorry to learn that Mr. Hepwortn bas sold the Nettie, and that the promise of another sammer book as charming as “Starboard and Port” is not likely at present to be fulfilled, We trast that one result of this publication Will be a new impulse to yachting on a larger and that every year may Witness an increase in the humber of people to seek healih and recreation by means of this exhilarating pastime. Mr, Hepworth has set an example well worthy to be followed. BOOKS RECEIVED. Btarbotrd and Port, By George Hl. Hepworth. New York: an enormous sin Langaages. By G. P, Quackenbos. ppleton & Co.

EXCURSION STEAMERS ROUGHLY HAXDLED AND HOTELS UNROOFED, Yesterday afternoon, at exactly nine minates to four o'clock, a tornado swept over Rockaway beach, the like of which has not been known for thirty years. Just beiore the violence of the wind broke over the land and water a dense mass of black clouds was ob- served to gather in the northeast, which seemed to move in a threatening volume over the beach, on which was gathered thousands of pleasure seekers, watching many hundreds of people disporting in the surf, which broke at their very feet. Most of the timid ones seught the shelter of the nearest hotels and open pavilions that skirt the beach of this famous watering placo, but many confident ones strolled on the beach until the full fury of the storm burst upon them and compelled them: to seek places of safety. At the landing places whero the steamboats lay—and there were several at the diferent wharves—no danger was apprehended, it being considered that the squall would soon pass over. As in the case of the Mohawk, howevor, this view proved to be fallacious. Tho Magenta had just left her landing when the storm | struck her, but although some slight damage was done her—the tearing away of her awnings and some top rig. ging—she seemed to escape with no more material duimage; but not so the Oceanus, running to rsie, an eye witness telling the Heap reporter that her hurricane deck was carried away, and her top rigging stripped in an instant Sho 1s a small boat and there- fore was but SMALL PREY POR THR WHIRLWIND. ‘Tho William Cook was lying at the fourth landing and securedto the stanch whart. In the space of one minute all her awnings and top rigging were blown from their places, the canvas torn into sbreds, the stanchions fore and aft twisted off as if they were pipe stems, windows broken in every direetion and the fragments thrown in a hundred places. Some of tho officers were resting below, and they ran upon deck only to tind the steamboat with her guards in the water, camp stools and life preservers flying through the air, landing in the swamp five hundred yards dis tant, and to complete the wonder, an immense ncn- pareil canvas raft carried up from the deck and set up- Tight against the stay chains of the upper deck. A restaurant on the wharf was partially un- rooted; the sign was carried awoy froin Hamill’s Hot ‘and the roof was tw: into so grotesque a shape to lead oie to suppose a storm demon was abroad and, out of very mischief, proving his power over man contrivances for comfort. A flagstaff at the fourth lapding was shattered, aboat lying snugly at anchor was upset, anda small boy, pre- sumably searching for ciams on the mud flats, thrown on his back and rolled over and over into the water. Meantime, oceanward, the rain camo down in torrents, and alter a binding gale, lasting about twenty minutes, the sun shone forth again, and the typhoon had spent its fary, with the results above recorded. RIOT AT LOCUST GROVE A telegram reached Police Headquarters yesterday alternoon that there was a riot progressing at Locust Grove, near Gravesend, Long Island, and a call was made for the reserve foree of the Brooklyn police, ‘There were seventy-five sent down by the Coney Island and Bath Railroad, but by the time they reached the place the trouble was over, and their services were not called into requisition, Ex-Mayor Gun- thor has a hotel, a dancing pavilion, a pri- vate dock and his summer residence at this grove, and the Brooklyn Yacht Club have their house there, Yesterday a gang of absut 200 rowdies came over from Staten Island in a barge and insisted on landing at the grove. Mr. Hoop, the manager of the hotel, reused to allow them to do ao, telling one ot his employés to cast off the line of the barge. The rowdies were indignant, aud thirty or forty of them jumped upon the dock’ and knocked the man down who had cast the line of. They wiso made an assault on several other parties who were on the dock at the time. Then they went up to the grove and | heiped themselves to all the refreshments they could | get hold of, drinking the bee nd soda which had been brought out for the guesta and seizing the sanuwiches A boat had brought a respectable party over trom New= ark, and they proceeded to reven: the outrageous con- duct of the roughs In ashort time there was gen. eral méiée, three or four policemen from New Utrecht taking part. The rowdies were soon forced to make a stampede for thor barge, and as they leit, it is said discharged several shots from revolvers, Fortunately no person was injured. AN ARTIST'S SUICIDE, PATHETIO LETTER TO HIM FROM HIS LITTLE DAUGHTER MAMIE. William S, L. Jewitt, an artist and a gentleman of means, committed suicide in Jersey ity yesterday by shooting himself through the head with a revolver. The rash act was committed at the rooms occupied by him over Cox's liquor store, corner of Washington and York streets, Tt would seem that his separation from his wife, who was, it is stated, about to sue for a divorce with ali. mony, had for some time past affected him, He had taken to drink, and his perturbed mental condition had been grievously aggravated by the re- ceipt of letters from his daughters, which referring to days of past happiness and yearning for their return, seem to have unseated his reason. The folowing one, written by bis daughter Mamie, is of a tone calculated to go to the heart's core of any senst- tive man, such as Mr, Jewitt seoms to have been:— Jory 21.

There are one or two things in the way which 1 think will prevent our cool and cautious Governor from following your advice:— 1, We have no regiment of militia, There are about forty of them on paper, with full complements ot negro major generals, brigadiers, &c. There are not 500 uniformed militiamen in the State. 2 They would not go if we had a regiment if called upon. The rifle clubs of Aiken and Edgeficld are vet- erans of the late war, thoroughly drilled and reckle: not a eorporal’s guard of negroos would answer a call to srms. 3. The advent of a negro regiment marching against white men would wake up the riotous element in every county of the State, Scott tried it in 187 id he soon had to disarm his militia to save their lives. 4 There is not a dollar in the State treasury to pay for transportation, subsistence, ammunition, &c. Tho merchants and banks would not trast the State a dol- lar for this or any other purpose. 5. The truth is that there are not above 5,000 white men in this State who vote the republican ticket. Against these and the negroes are banded 60,000 voters possessing all the money, ail the land and nearly all the intelligence and courage. Governor Chamberlain has so far gained the respect of all the people that he can safely rely on the exe- cution of Warrants should any be issued against tho Jeaders of the raid. Even Geueral Butler will surren- | der himself to the Sheriff if the Coroner’s jury should implicate him aga leader. The whites will be surewd enough to prevent the use of United States troops. If republican ascendancy is to be matutained 1m this State it must be by other means than force. If we try that wo shall b2 beaten, We can prevent intimidation only by presenting a State ticket which will disarm the bad element of the demo- | crats and give them no excuse for arming against it. If | Governor Chamberlain is renominuated by the republi- cans, with a reasonably fair selection for the other oflices, we can have 4 peaceful election and an enor- mous majority. That is our only hope. ‘he county government of Edgedeld has been in the hands of the negroes ever since 1868, It was recenily characterized in an official report made by Judge Mackey, a republican cirewit judge, aa ‘a blot upon civilization.’’ It has had four county treasurers, each of whom has been a deiaulter, Over $150,000 has been stolen outright apd as much more ‘under thin devices. Had it had reasonably deeent treatment at the hands of republican rulers the peaceful, law-abiding whites, of which it bas a fair proportion, would have been able to check the turbulent and wicked. The only turbulent counties in the State have suffered in the same way. The civi! power ts not respected because it is not respectable. Governor Chamberiain’s administration is the only break in a long period of misrule, I have little hope that be will be accepted by the party to run again. We appear to be on the downward road, and that leads directiy to a fate like that of Mississippi. No one can save us but ourselves, and we are too blind to see our only c! e or too reckless to uccept it, Such negro demagogues as Elliott and Whipper, and such white ones as Bowen, Patterson and Moses, will probably ride the party to the devil, Ss.
