4 cy $ft gLnil-Q $tiOY&&. ASTORIA. OKEOON SUNDAY ....JUNE 18, lhB2 J. F. UALLOBAX. ..Editor . Victoria Retina. To-day, the English drum-beat as it circles round the globe, pro claims the anniversary of the ac cession of Victoria to the British thrpne. Forty-five years ago, to day, the young queen was crowned at "Westminster, and what an event ful reign it has been! The Eng land of 1837 differs from the Eng land of 18S2 as much as can well be imagined, and the progress that nine, lustrums show set forth the advance that our trans-Atlantio cousin have made in that period of peace. The history of Victoria's reign, when written, will be a history of the English people, and here is the difference between it and all of the former reign's, the history of which is but a chronicle of ldngly intrigue and court faction. The personal adventures of kings and nobles, the scandal of court favor ites and the pomp of court pa geantry constitute the chiefest part of English history from Ar thur to William IV, and 'tis only when the curtain rises on the scene where Victoria is the central figure, that wo see due recognition of the people. Elizabeth mounted the throne in 1558, and reigned 45 years; George III reigned, from 1760 to 1S20, though his successor was regent for the last tea years of the old king's life; so that next, to his reign Victoria has had tiie longest term of sovereignty of any Eng lish monarch. "The flig that for a thousand years braved the battle and the breeze,"' has-been ad v.inceu aurmg nei leign over a wonderful extent o! ompire, and vet tin" constitutional, intellectual and social' advance- of the nation is the most remarkable of the vic tories that her proud reign has wituesscd. The triumphs of peace, the achievements ot progress glit ter with pure lay beside tho lurid setting stars of the old regime, and such stalwart soldiers of science as Tyndall, Faraday, Huxley and Bastian have won greater triumphs in the mind that meat mental te- public than ever did Plantaga net, or in later day Marlborough, on fields of furious contest. In the natural order of events Victoria must soon pass away; she is sixty -throe, and will in all possi bility be the last great English monarch; the coming fruit is blos soming, and before the cloe of the century the empire across the sea will have become in fact and name,what it is, already virtually The Republic of England. The Pniiie at Alcxnnilrla. A Xew-Yoek special of the 17th says: Matters are no better. Alarm is spreading to villages and all trains from the interior are crowded. Every ship in tho iiar Joris crowded. The BritMi ad miral has chartered special steam ers sent -for transport. Capt. Botoheler, of tho American ship Galena, is assisting all fugitives of unprotected nationalities. He has ordered V:'ce Consul Comamis to advise all Americans to come on beard .and has chartered the bark Savona expressly to afford more accommodations. Judge Farrhan and'Judgc Barringer and wife.are offered all needful protec tion. The American government should send a special consul general to Egypt. The consul has just received an order from tho sultan to go back to Cairo. His obedience is. .doubtful. Our Cairo correspondent wires us that there is a fearful panic there, which Arabi is doing all it cau to calm. Last .night au European .stabbed an Arab ivory merchant and there was great excitement, but soldiers prevented a riot. The American government should send a "ship to Ismalia to succor Cairo fugitives. Matters throughout the country are most alarming. Something Definite Seeded. The discussion during the ill ness of President Garfield of the question of presidential inability showed how loosely the laws had treated what might easily becomeJ the vital question of the succession to the presidency. The same show ing is made by the question ra;sed by the deputation by Senator Davis's absence from the sen ate of the presidency of that body to another senator. Sup pose that the president and Sena tor Davis should both die. Who would discharge the duties of the presidential office until a new elec tion could be held? The consti tution is silent upon that point. Indeed, after the death of the vice-president, the constitution leaves tho succession, not indeed to the office of 'the presidency, but to the powers and duties of that office, to be settled by statute. The statute provides that in t-i-of "the removal, death or inability of both the president and vice president of the United State", the president of the senate, or, if there is none, then the speaker of the house of representatives, for the time being, shall act as president until the disability is removed or a president elected." The words "for tho time being" aic mere surplus age. Buttho question which would arise at this time in case of the death both of President Arthur and Senator Davis would be a very serious question. It would be the questien: Is there apresidentof the senate? The president of tin sen ate after the vice-president lias bo come president, is an officer elect ed by the senate, and lie continues to be president of the senate, un less lie is.renioved by the senate. until the term of tiie presidency expires which the vice-president is serving, but u lie (Jepules his powers with the ncquiescenre of the-senate, and dies while they aic thus deputed, is not the acquies cence of the senate to be taken as the action of the senate, and is not the person so deputed and so act ing tho -president of the senate within the meaning of the statute? There mast be a limit to the strain which our system will stand from disputed elections and dis puted successions. We have had a disputed election decided, in favor of r. minority candidate. We came last summer very near having a disputed succession. If President Garfield had lingered for a month or two longer disabled, or if he had recovered bodilv hut had become mentally disi'oicd, very grave questions would have arisen which were left unsolved by the constitution and laws. If President Arthur aud Senator Davis were both to die, and a Democrat weic speaker ol" the House, wo should have to confront a question more dangerous than that which was answered by the electoral commission' in 1877. It is clear that we need a clearer and more explicit statement than the laws now supply, both of the mode of election and of the oider i.m iiiuuuui ui succession io the Presidential office. But even more than these we need to have taken away the enormous tempta tion to grasp at the presidency which is now supplied by the enormous power and patronage of that office. It is evident that the constitution, did not contemplate the presidency as the headship of a party, or, as we now call it, tile control of a machine. Imagine wliat would be the state of things if the President were of one paitv, as was originally contemplated, and the' Vice President of the other. This was what was ment by the founders of the govern ment, and this was actually effect ed in the earlier elections. It seems clear that, so far from ex pecting the President to bo the head of the party.jthe framers of thecon stitutiou meant him to occupy the position of a constitutional mon arch. In other wordc, they meant to take the Presidency "out of politics. "V It. is questionable whether we shall not be driven to attain the same end through more effective devices than those pro vided by the constitution have proved to be. Gulteau's Condition. A Washington dispatch ol Fri day said Guiteau was resting qui etly on his bed. Recently he had been indulging in fruit to that ex tent that he had become peaked. It had been the desire of the doc tor that he should pattakc laigcly of meats that he might become strengthened physically and theie by encouraged. The doctor deems him a great coward who will show the white feather when the time comes for his execution. Guiteau at this time could be entrusted with a revolver aud will not kill himself, nor by any method which costs him pain. If lie could obtain poison that would carry him off without suffering, he would take it, and it was therefore deemed well to watch the cell he left in the mottling and tho one he left in tho ecning, lest through some means he might secrete something of the kind, or have some ether unknown means in his possession to use at the last hour. His wife, Mrs. Dun mire, has sent Mrs. Scoville, of Chicago, authority to sign her name to the paper asking exten sion of time for Guiteau. She ac companied this permission with a letter full of forgiveness and re gret at Guiteau's plight. mEi. In Astoria, 31 a v 17, 18S2. Clajton Richardson, aged 72 j oars.
