TIIE increase of lawlessness in Ire
land ia a cause of well grounded alarm
to Mr. Gladstone's ministry. That
ministry has been the most liberal in
its programme for Ireland of any yet
organized in England. Its secretary
for Ireland is a liberal of the inof-t
advanced type , its bill to forbid evic
tions , which was x-otoed by the house
of lords , wvj n measure radical in the

nate that at this time wholesale mur

should strive to undo the efforts of
the most friendly ministry which Ire

THE RAILROAD EXPERT.
The annnal tour of the railroad ex
pert has begun. He has left his desk
at Washington , packed hia valite ,
counted over his railroad pases and
started on his yearly junketing trip at' '
the exppnso of the railroad' . His PS
penscs are paid , the usual and unusual -
al "courtesies" of the roads have been
extended to him.and he mturally an- f
ticipatt. a pleasant season nf leisure
whose results will be compiled for the
bsnefit cf congress , In the fall , in a
pamphlet of a few pa es of stale ata
tigtics complimentary to the roads and
barren of all profitable suggestions.
The Railway Age , in this connec
tion , remarks : "It is announced that
. French , government auditor of
railway Recounts , has left Washington
to make Jus 'annual inspection of the
property and condition of the North
ern , Southern , and Central Pacific ,
and other subsidized land grant rail-
roads. This inspection will be made
with a view of preparing a report
showing the condition of these road ? ,
which Auditor French is required by
law to furnish Secretary Schurz on
the 1st of November of each yean'
The Railway Aye has always regarded
this assumption , by a man who knows
nothing practically about rail
way business , of qualifications
which can only be possessed by an expert -
pert , ns a most ridiculous farce.
Something more than a govern
ment appointment is necessary to fit
any man to properly and intelligently
inf jrm the government as to the
condition of the track , rolling stock ,
account" , etc. , of great railways
like the Union and Northern Pacific
and other leading land grant roads.
Fifty years of clerking in the depart
ments at Washington would not sup
ply the needed qualifications , nor does
political backing or favorable ac-
j quaintnnco with professional politic
ians. Everyone knows that these an
nual inspections mean nothing more
than extended iunketing trips at the
exoense of the roads -which are com
pelled to submit to auch exadione.
Thereports which aropublished by the
government and given the teal of its
official approval ara notoriously in
complete and incorrect , in to far as
they refer to railway matters , and in
stead cf conveying reliable informa
tion serve to mislead. The mixing of
railroading and politics results about
as unsatisfactorily as the mixing of
politics and religion , and should bo
discouraged. "
THAT it is the duty of the govern
ment to investigate property in which
it has invested many millions of ita
money no one will deny. The trouble
has been in finding a man competent
to perform the duty satisfactorily.
Railroad men themselves are notor
iously ignorant of their business.
The Exchange states it aa a fact that a
j-ear ago there waa not a single man in '
the New York
Central Railroad com
pany , from president down to assist
ant general freight agent , who could
intelligently state the firat prin
ciples of thg business ' he
was supposed to know all about.
So the lack of comprehensive kuowl
edge of railroading is by no means
confined to government officials , who ,
while not possessing any full knowl
edge of railroading , may still be pre
sumed to be Fat least as unbiased in
their judgment On the roads as the
railroad officials. The last of all remedies -
edies for the need of efficient govern- j
ment experts would be throw the po-
ei ion into the hands of tne railroad
kings. As at present performed the
duties of a government expert are
practically of no benefit , given into
the hands of therailaoads they would
in all likelihood resultin absolute det
riment to the interests of the people.

China Breaking Down Her Wall.
N. Y. Herald.
The most conservative nation in the
world finds itself tempted , it appears ,
out of its haughty isolation from the
seductions of modern trade. It is not
so long since pious but industrious
England was forcing opium at the
cannon's mouth into the Flowery
Land , and it seems but yesterday
that China was at all contented with
permitting anything like reciprocacy
in commerce. Yet to day she makes
her first entry in the lists for the car
rying trade of the seas. The Chinefe :
steamer ilo Chung , which in a
few days is to pass through the
Golden fiate , will doubtless be the
precursor of a merchant fleet flying
the dragon flag that will ultimately !
penetrate to every port that a pound
of tea can be sold in. So novel is the
experiment that our treasury officials
have to look cautiously about to find
exactly what duties are leviable upon '
the stesmer's arrival. But these
points once settled , if Chinese enter
prise follows up th9 experiment as rit
should , the result will bo the pushing ;
of China more rapidly into the family
of nations than by any other step er
people couid take. The se
shipowners will not desire to
labor under disabilities in for
eign ports , and to avoid them
China must awinc her own gates wider
and wider ajar. Where she needs con
suls and ambassadors now she will
need men-of-war presently , and grad
ually she will find herself penetrated ;
to the core by the rtstless spirit of
modern trade. Her subjects re
shown that in commerce they can Id
their own with any people , and we
may be sura that once upon the sea
they will give to China more and more
of .the profit which is legitimately '
'ym
hers. They will not reach success in
this "new "
departure" without en
countering heavy opposltionin which ,
since the United States is without a
mercantile marina of any account , re
shall have little part ; but in England ,
Grauce and Holland the news will cre
ate a stir of keen interest.
It is rnmored that Josefly and Wil-
hemj will appear in concert this sea

tion of Theodore Thomas. The sod
den and unexpected return from Eu
rope of Mr. Thomas , frq it is believed
something to do with the arrange

The case of the Grind Rapids and
Indiana railroad company against
Huntly is calculated to arrest atten-
I tton. Ie denies the well settled rules
1 of American hw relating to responsi-
bilityof carriers for injuries''to pas
senger * . The first is , that the break-
irg down c f the earner's vehicle or
the giving away cf his reid is prima
facie evidence of negligence ; the oth
er ia , that a carrier of pisstni < era ia
bound to more than ordinary Cire.
On the las1'- point the court cites three
modern English cases and some
previous cases in Michigan. It
is sufficient to sty that the law
as laid down by Loid Mans
field nnd L ird E lenboroueh and
this was merely stage-coach-law was
that the carrierwaa bound to lookout
for the aitety of his pcs.'O' g r < i as far
a ] human care and foresight could
go , and that the b o iking down of his
meatiB c > ftranrport tn n was prima
fAoio evidence of nej/lig nco ou his
pirt. But the m 'dern E-glish judges ,
with tlnir p n-ketj full of r < > Iroad
shares , have [ d smissed the carrier's
habiLty , even where he drives his
cainnge by steam at tix times the
speed of the old &tago-Dach , to that
of ordinary c. re. Wo sia'e with con
fidence 'hat the old E.iglish rule is the
Uw as fldmini-tsrud iu thu supreme
court of th United States , and the
rrg-.eet court of tvery state ia the
Uni' n , except Mich gm , jhero the
question his nr's-n
Tha South Tried and Fo-nd WanUnpr
Ctia Iler-dil , ( iJep. )
Thi south has had its trial , and not
evtn the south can pretend that it has
not been a fair trial. Forfour jeara
every southern state has been abso
lutely under the cuntrol of tt > e element
which had been hitherto proclaiming
itsalf maltreated. The federal Ad
ministration has left them to ttiem-
felvea : and here in has the Situation
changed ? Everything of which the
democrats have complained hs been
done away with , while everything up
on winch the republicans have oaaed
their complaint against the south re
main iu Bg iavaiud form. The sec
tional issue has no place in this
campaign except as it is put there by
the south i.selr , and remains becauae
the touth has failed so signally to
nuke good its promises. The repub
licans iiave now no record to appeal to ,
s > > far as the south is concerned , save
thit which the eoutli itself has delib
erately made. How ftirihe letter and
the spirit of the constitutional amend-
mpnts aru accepted by the south , how
completely the doctrines which lay at
the boituin of the rebellion have been
abandoned , how well qualified by 10-
generation end repentance these
auuthurn leaders have become to gov
ern the nation , against whose author
ity they wera so recently in arms
the north is at lengch left to judge
from a southern standpoint.
