Arecont French writer, im almost the ouly favorable foreign notice which wo have seen of tho American works of art exhibited at the late Exposition in Paris, alludes to tho reni interest which art is beginning to inspire in the United States, If this writer had yester- day repaired in Now York to the galleries of the Na‘ional Academy of Design, the galleries of Goupil (Knoedler), Schaus, Snedecor, Putnam and Whiting on Broadway, and attended the artisis’ reception at tho various siudio buildings throughout aho city, his impression woud have been confirmed by the unprecedenter number of visitors, particularly of lady visitors, to the gaiterics and studios, Unquestionably a growing interest is taken by by our community in the different branches of the ine arts, and our aglists may feel encouraged to: devote themselves with tfedoublod zeal to their profession. At the Academy, thaaks not only to the additional attraction of Cole's pictures, of the pictures and statu. ary brought back from tho Paris Exposition, and of the exhibition of the painiers ia water colors, but also to the intelligent activity ot Mr, Alfred Ordway, the nowly appointed clerk of the Academy exhibition, ite daily re ceipts have mcroased in a gratifying manner and several oil paintincs and water colors have been ad- vantageously sold ulroady. The latest additions to the exhibition are a bust of Matthew Vassar, (he liberal founder of the Vassar College for Young Li Poughkeepsie, and an immense cartoon, “The F mation,” by Kaulbach, This celebrated toon wa one of the great attractions of the Bavarian gailery on the anneze of the Paris Exposition, The artist odtained by it one of the eight medais of honor, The figures are of life size and are drawn in crayon. This cartoon was purchased by an American geutioman—Mr. Durfee, of Fall River—and will soon be on view at the Academy. The pleasant reunton of the New York artists at tho Academy last Saturday evening «uicketied an esprit de corps which has been too long ¢ormans, but wh'<b now promises to be beneficial, both io the aro'sts caemeetves and to tho public. The studio building at No, 212 Fifth avcnug was thronged by visitors yesterday afternoon. We found ali the studios except those of Augero and Farman open. ‘The chief attraction in the studio of J. M.

Reduction ef the Estimates fer the Military Academy, Navy and Sti Department. The annual appropriation bills for the Military Acad- emy, the Diplomatic and Consular service and the Navy Department have been finally agreed upon by the Committee on Appropriations and reported to the House. ‘The eatimates for the Military Academy vary very little from last year, and the committee report in favor of $303,000, The first estimate of the Navy Depart- ment was $47,225,973. Tnis was considered 50 enormous that the Commitree on Appropriations refused to consider it, and Seeretary Welles subsequently t in @ revised estimate amounting to $24,924,478. The committee wero still of the opinion that this was too‘wnuch, and so they cut it down six millions moro, making the appropriation $18,096,045. Thero was a considerable reduction made by the committes in the Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation bill, The Secre- tary of State sent in about tife usual estimate, but the committee resolved upon dropping three officers nere- tofore employed in the State Department—to wit, Second Assistant Secretary of State, the Examiner of Claims and the Superiutoudent of Statistics, Cutting off the salaries of these officers, vogether with some minor reductions, leaves the appropriation for tho diplomatic and consular service $1,261,434. The esti- mate handed in by the State Departmont was $1,423,454, It is possible that when these several bills come to be considered by the House thero will be a further reduc- tion in some of the items, especially in the Diplomatic and Consular bill, and probably ia the Navy Appropria- tion bill, The Financial Question. The foancial agitations now disturbing the peace of mind of the would-be financiers and political economists of the House lave taken a more serious and organized form in a difference of views between tho House Com- mittees on Ways and Means and Banking and Currency. The former Oppose expansion, but favor the movement to suspond further contraction, while the latter support the expansion theory, Ii ia expected when the financial question comes fairly before the House that these two opposite elements will lead to @ lively controversy. ‘This opposition it is considered will open a favorable opportunity for the democrats to take a stand, Al- though the laiter, at their last caucus, wore unable to arrive at any conclusion on financi matters, it is thought come action will be taken att uext meeting. The radical ieacors are somewhat perplexed at the divisions springing up in their ranks, and aro using great endeavors to anticipate troubles on this question by using every effort to produce harmony and doctor up some finaueiai scheme upon which all sides can agree, The Weekly wcial Statement of the Tren- sury Department.

Tho resolutions of tho Legislature of Ouio withdraw. ing the assont of that State from the proposed fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United Siates, introduced to the House of Representatives on Friday by Mr. Eggtoston, created quite a sensation tn tie radi- calcamp, This action of the first State wrested from tne grasp of tho radicals is looked upon as indicative of the course the conserva ives will bo likely to pursue wherover success crowns their contests with the pariy in power, The radicals, however, not to bo thus casi!y undone im what they consider acts neces+ sary to the perpetuity of the constitution and laws, will at once sot to work to build up a defence agaist theie political opponents in this respect. The resolutions wore at first intended morely tu be referred to the Commitice on the Judiciary, to bo dispused of as they thought proper; but the House saw fitgto put tho matter in a more definite shape by instructing the com- mitted to look inte the legal points involved. This will doubtless lead to another mountain dit of a mole hill, as in the case of the impeachment investigation.

Too object of the gath- oriug is 40 frame @ series of . protests against all wars, no matter for what purpose undor- taken, and to pray Congress and tho Presi. deat to commit no act by which war may be induced. Ex-Goyernor Harney spoke Yast evening and denounced tho wars with the Tndians, contendiag that the theory was usterly groundless that the red meu could never be civilized. In New Mexico he stated that the Pueb.o Indians were brought to a condition of comparatively superior civilization by the labors of Catuotic missionaries. They live in comfortable houses of their own construction and follow peaceful aud in- dustrious av-cations, It was the fartolessness of white men, and not of Indians, that orig nated aim: all the wars in which the government has been engazed from time to time. Ameng the Pueblos ue stated thai sing against virtue are punished for the first cifence by cutting o'f the nose, and tor the scevud by death, He approved of the plan proposed by the Indian Peace Commission for placing all the tribes in one grand reservation; but ho strongly advised an effort being also made to intru- dvce amony them machinery for spinning and woavi and agricultural implemonts for tilling the got!, togethor with instructions to teach them how to live after tho manner of white men, It was niso suggested to give them the franchise and allow their representatives to come to Congress. Very siréng speeches were made against ony action of Con- gress or ‘he President which mig bt tend to bring about a war of races, apd one speaker, who believed sach # re- sult imminent, thought the only remedy was ina de- tormined effort of the people to shake off the lead of politicians and military heroes, The speeches were in torsporged with some old fashioned songs, strongly im prognated with the sontiment of brotherly love.
