scenes of excitement which marked the pro- ooedings in the House of Representatives yea- terday we have the gratifying information of the confirmation of Collector Smythe by the Senate. We say gratifying, because it is evi- dent that he was not confirmed on party grounds, but as a concession to the mercantile interests of New York and in view of the inter- ests of the public treasury. May wa not wey’ this act as an indication of the spirit in the Senate for a wise decision wpon “the more important questions which it will now have to consider? wins ‘Travel to Europe—Want of an American Steamship Line. It appears from the number of people making application for pas at the State Department that the number of visitors to Europe this summer will be greater than in any Previous year. Wedo not understand why Mr. Seward should be troubled by applications -of this kind, because passports are not required now. Tho tourist can travel all over Europe, except Austria—where nobody wants to go— ‘without @ passport from the American Secre- tary of State. However, the number of appli- cants is an indication of the number of visitors x jure ive fro; al ihe Rents i dls eal ad oaks sfal fact that, with the exception of two steam- era, the Fulton and the Arago, every steamship ‘between this country and’ Europe belongs to foreign companies, and American citizens are compelled to sail under the flag of France or of England, or the Hanse towns. How much more #atisfactory it would be if Americans could step on board a vessel at Liverpool, or Havre, or Bremen, with their own flag at the peak. The American flag covers American soll, and they would be at home at once, even ‘before they crossed the ocean. That they can- not do so, and that all the profita of the trans- ratlantic passenger trade goes into the pockets of English, French and German companies is the fault of Congress. While that radical and revolutionary body is voting thirty millions to the national banks, which are rapidly becom- ing a source of national danger, and eleven millions to the Freedmen’s Bureau, an elee- mosynary institution scattered all over the South for the re-enslavement of the negroes, it will not vote a dollar for an honorable enter- ~prise like an American steamship line. A subsidy of five hundred thousand dollars -a year sufficed to maintain the ‘Collins line, -which a narrow-minded Congress withdrew, andthe last American fiag at the masthead of an American steamship vanished from the At- ‘antic. The governments of England and France, and even the little government of Italy, grant handsome subsidies to their mail steamship lines. Why not our government do the same? It is because with the men now legistating at Washington the interests of the -country find no favor; the interests of party are alone considered. The commercial pros- ‘Pees of the honor of the United States are seconti*~r to, the suco%ss of an election that = “sae of power for a faction that is using the POW «how holds to obstract the ‘government and u the nation. The travel to Europe next y.. win) probably be double what it is now, and w, should pre- -pare at once for the establishment o* 4 morican steamship lines. Let us have 8 combination of the largest sapitalists of New York in an -enterprise wi'ch will be a credit te the coun- try. One lmge line, with the best shi that -oan be constmcted, well officered and proprejy managed, oxrying passengers at @ fan spate, would Uv" sweep the feuague tlO~ nopolies off he seas, It is the duty of such men as Vand@rbilt and Moses Taylor, Marshall <0, Roberts ind W.

They should insist upon Congress granting their company a subsidy, and we do not believe that their demands would be re- fused. Public opinion would be so largely with this project that the radicals would hardly venture to dircountenance it. Itisa disgraee ta great maritime nation like ours that its cMzens should be compelled to creas the Atlantic under the protection of a foreign tag, There are no privateers now afloat to moles. theStars and Stripes, and there is no excuse for our public spirited capitalists withholding their assisance from vw. establishment of an Ameri- can shamship Company on » grand scale.

He arrived a this city last evening from Havre on the steamship Npoleon IL Owing to the immense size of the steamer,nearly two hours elapsed before she could be brought alngside the dock and land her passengers. The news of her ap- proach, and the fact of Stephens being on>oard, was kept as secret as possible for the purpos of pre- venting too great a crowd from assembling. This would have succeeded admirably if te vessel lad landed the passengers upon her arrivi opposite the dock about six o'clock, a8 there were not nore than. one hundred persons present at that time wh knew of his arrival; but the nows soon. spread like vildfre, a0 that when the steamer arrived alongside the dock at & quarter before eight P.

The remainder took boats and were landed ‘at the rive end of the pier, Up to half-past six o'clock the reception sromiged to be a vary tame affair, but after that hour the pevnje increased to such an extent that the dock was crowde: FIRST SIGhe OF STEPHENS. ‘The Napoleon III. was tow.4 to the left of the pier, those on the outside of the gate «ing unable to see her.

Mr. Stephens was instastly recognized, and loud cheers and cries of “Stephens,”’ “ Stephens," arose simultaneously from the crowd.

There was another grand tumble at the Bourse yeater- day in all sorts of securities, Tho French three per cents went down forty contimos, tho Italian loan nearly two francs a share, and Austrian securities in about the same proportion. Among the bulls and bears of the money market the Prussian reply to the Austrian propo- sition for a stmultancous disarmament was considered, an it really is, rather an addition of “insult to injury.’ As- suming, as Bismark doos in this document, that Austria is alone in fault and the solecause of the extraordinary armaments made by Prussia, instead of rejecting or ac. copting the fair and square proposition made by Austria to disarm on a certain day, he oxpreases his willingness to wait and soo what Austria does and then act accord. ingly. Austria, it would seem, could searcely act, after such @ reception of her proposal, im the way that she pro- posed; and, despite an assertion im-thé Constitutionnel of this morning, that, upon the reception of Biamark’s re- ply, tho Austrian government entered into negotiations with Prussia for the mutuaf disarmament, the fever of war is as great this morning as'ever. But, even should the disarmament actually occur, It woul# settle nothing, and be merely postponing the reckoning day. The ques- tions of the fate of the Duchies and the ambitious de- signs of Prussia, it desire to eithor make iteelf the h ‘and leader of the Germanic Confederation, would still re- main unsolved and ungratified, always liable to lead to open warfare, The undisguised fact that Austria is voncentrating and strongthening ber forces in Vénetin and tho quadri- lateral shows that she is intending to repare herself against @ union of Italy and Prussia in the event of a war, and which alliance Bismark has declared has mo naed of being a formal written one; for, as he sald, “tho moment the first gun was fired the King of Italy would attack Anstria in Vs notia, ifenly to prevent Garibaldi and the voluntec from’acting before him. ‘The future certa'nly looks wai hike, and wo aro now looking with great anxiety for the Austrian reply to the last Proasian note, A letter fast received from Veale informs me that Botices aro posted all over the city recalling from their o-ngés immediately all the soldicr-0f the Austrian some now on leave belonging to te, tarts ePMnong tho Venetians of a Se favorable to themselves Groat hop M As and a result ‘and their liberties, ‘Among the many plans and pmjects which the ap. proaghing grand exhibition has brought out for the ac- Commodation of strangers one of the most useful is one st decided uj 6 Finanpe Committee of the ex- Pibitionthe Teeelan of a building in the park for an “International Club.” ‘This is intended to be confined entirely to. embtbi end sin the large reading room it is intended to have ; frora. ali : Sicensiopiatoen Cd ‘ho speak all | os em, to nerve mea! tiie members, each ‘one of whotn will have his members, Dox, in which hid letters will be deposited.
