In the old days of Cieve aud Hastings, or even Rilenborough, so many provocations would have led to. an immediate declaration of war, But the tines are ale) ana the authorities wait patientiy for the day when the King will again listen 40 reason. ‘vhe leading ground of the present dispute is the court which, by the terms of the treaty of 1857, was to be established at Mandalay for the docision of all @isputes between Bria ubjects or between Bi iB gubdjects and Burmese. So faras Britisirsubjecis are concerned there is, of ‘course, no diteulty; bat the King ciaims that the court, deciding between British Subjects and Burmese, shall not oniy be composed Of ao Englishman aud'a burman, but shall aiso pe governed by burmese Jaw—a concession absolutely Jmpoxsibie, since, i iL be granted, w of a Wuropean offender of defaui obildren or father, may be punisned f crimes, ‘INis mixed court, the present m abeyance agatust the spirit of th Europeans pendin Plajuly vo bis late Jong As possible, » Dunisiiag and Aung erefure maiter open as ¥ as, being Limself engaged to be judge in © merchants, Capitan & enmity against tie Kin wae able to to bring al manded the explor country last yes srously against the (und inaction/ of the Buriuese gover ueat; bat presentations to the Indwan autuorities do not seein to be inuch regarded. ‘ihe Conncii at Caicuita are too seared of public opi tu England to go to Wur, even Will @ semul-barbarous potvuiate, Unies they are absolutely compelicd to do so, especiauy as, if whey break up the existing governimentio Upper Burman, the annexation of that country is abt er when xpedition to whe fnevitavle; and aunexal on, jist at present, is, a8 38 weil Known, iv great disfavor with te ruling powers 10 Great Britain.

To {make the present state of afiairs intcligiv.e at must be mentioned that In Upper Barmah most of the business is done, either directly or indirectly, through tue King, who is an absolute despot, and uses sis power to make money in every possibie way.

CALOUTTA, August 15, 1869. Althongh the Viceroy and his lady no longer glad- den the “City of Palaces” with their presence, having betwken themselves to the bills for fresh aw and a less torrid temperature, We find some consolation 1 the fact that we hear regularly tue details of the gayeties ap simia, Last week the Viceroy and the Countess oi Mayo were enter ed by tus Royal High- bess tie Maharajah of Jeypore, at the Assembly Rooms, with & ball, AS Mis is ihe jirst time the Maharajah kas come into personal contact with Bari Mayo le Spared neither expense nor pains to make tho affair as grand and imposing a8 possible. The Assembly Rooms were decorated with admirable taste, aud the two dancing rooms were more bril- luant and atiractive than they have probably ever been before. The walis were draped wilh fated folds of white musitn, terminated at each extremity WAU light blue silk, so as to represent a cornice or an entablature. ver this background fell deep lace, edged with festoons of a white, gaucy material, streaked wilh amber-colored ribbon and studded with silver rosettes. The platform, which is sometimes appiied to we purposes of a stage in theatrical performances, was converted tato a dais for the Viceroy and the Count- es, and in ils centre were two thrones of state. The supper room Was even yet more beautifal than whe saloons. Rick plate and crystal, fragrant Mowers and rare ferns, costly Viands and choice wines com- bined to give it an alr of luxury and refinement, such as combined Oriental magnificence wiih BHuropean taste. The road from the Viceroy’s resi- dence at Simia to the Assembly Rooms was tllumi- nated with thousands of iron braziers, fed with oiled wood, and in spite of the heavy rain which an- fortunately fell ou this eveatful evening the enorts of the mnesauichees, whose business it was to tend thom, kept them blazing. ‘The ball opened at half-past pine o’elock, when the Viceroy and the Countess of Mayo having arr! A were escorted by the Maharajah to the dais, ‘The Viceroy was 80 evidently surprised by the brilliancy of the scene that Instead of taking his seat he stood up for a minate or so to contemplate it. Two hun- dred Europeans and a few wealthy natives had gathered on the Noor, together with all that Simia possesses in the way of feminine beauty. So distinguished was the gathering that less than & score of black coats were visibie; the re- mainder of the company were resplendent in official or mililtary uniforms. The effect of the biue and scarlet and gold costumes of the eterner , Duagied with the snowy white or light Unted yaiment of the ladies, delicate in texture and relieved by the flashing of jewels, can easily be believed to have been extremely imposing. great event wieh The f the night was the first quadrille, in tie Mabarajah and the Countess led the It 18 alinost neediess to say tat unt) te j ai came to Simla he had never even seen a Huropean dauce, much less participated im one as an actor, and for a Week previons to the Dall, uherefore, he had been constanuy employed under a com- potent insteaccor in muasteriug the Intricactes of the Terpstchorean developments of English civil- ization, All things considered he care of in fying colors, thanks to the good-natured kindness of the esa, Wlio gave hin @ necessary hint wien he iiikely to make a blunder in the figure, He d The Whole room, however, by the deuveration With which he put on bis white kid gloves, keeping the whole room and a couple of bands watimg while he completed this, to him, arduous task, In per- sonal appearance he is described as being of short slacure and sicaly, but intelugent aud dignified.

The indian papers receive tlis news with great equanimity and talk toudly of the security of British india, now that Affghanisian 1s declared both oy Russia and England a neutral territory. Perhaps, however, they are only whist- Jing to keep up their courage; for, in conservaiton, Angio-Indians do not attempt to disguise the tervor with which the persistent advance of tiussia towards the South inspires them, MILITARY NOTES, Governor Hoffman's promise that he will do all in his power to have a certain portion of the Park set aside a3 a parade ground for the First division 1s certainly very gratifying to the members of the National Guard, The Governor says that if the National Guard desire it the grounds shall pe had, He need have no doubt on this point, Year after Jear the First division has done all that it could to induce the Park Commissioners to allow it to parade at given times in the Park, but the Commissioners have unfailingly scouted the idea, contending that the bauda of music would frighten the horses and that the grass would be trodden so that it Would nut grow, Did it ever sinke these wise men that there are horses in the streets through Which bands of music pass daily, aud that the timid folks who own horses are not necessarily obliged to drive on the roads leading to the paraae wheo a reghnent ts oul manceuvring; or are they not aware tat wwo days tu the week, during uine months of the year, the grass is ‘“trotden under foot’ by thousands of ball players, and yet it grows luxuriously? Even if the grass argameut was any argument at all would it not be well for the Com- missioners to bear in mind that a brigade, or the First division or a regiment does not on the average parade over three mes a year? It is to be hoped that Governor Hofman will take this Park buli by the horns, and he can rest assured that all the National Guard are with him in emaiter, It is always a subject of remark among strangers coming to this city that we have no such thing as a parade grouad for che troops. “Tompkins square,’ says somebody, but that somebody should understand that the square 1s in nowise sulted to division evolutions, and that the hundreds who de- aire to wituess the manwuvres whenever the division is ordeved out would rather forego the pleasure than remain a couple of hours inthe delghtimi localliy bounded by Seventh and Tenth streets and First avenue and avenue A, The fact that one of the New York city regiments last: summer hat vo go to Pros- pect Vark to mancnvre ts noe very complimentary to the Park Commissioners. 1 eteran Light Guard, Company A, Thirteenth regiment, Will hold 13 quarterly meeting at eight this evening, at the otlice of the president.

In the mining sections of ts State there is hie open eXciiemeut over the election, though tere is quietly a great deal of hard work going oa, it ja in tuts section that the democrats are eudcavoring to roli up an extraordinary majority and thus gain largely on the regular vote of the republicans and stil Dave a margin, consisting of those who are disaitected. As far as this latter doubtial condivion is concerned, there are just ag many in one party as in the other, who are not satisied with the guberna- torial nominations and just a3 many in the same way affected by their displeasure over the local seiectlons. But a& this condition of things has always existed aud probably always will exist as long as there are such a number of aspirants for each aud the same Office in the gift of the people, there are ho grounds upon which now tosay that the dissatisfaction 18 greater than during any pre- vious election, But the grutmbiers and disappointed of both sides are suiliclentiy puifed up with egotism to think anti to say publicly that the people of the party ave Very apathetic and will not come out freely. Now if these saine vain individuals were to say the Tepublican or the democratic party are not atall entiusiastic, because we, Joun Smith and company, ‘were not Nominated for the reavon that we wanted ty be, it Would be a truthful statement of just that state of affairs which does exist. It is quite certain hat no single individual or particutar set of indiviawals, atd above all of tuat petty class running for Slate oiilces, can have much effect upon ‘uruing the votes of the party one way or the other, £ pt in cases of very untiscal aud sudden reaction a party scicka to ity principles, aud the dis- appolucment of one or a few men has not even & feacher’s weight in turning tue scale.

They are also somewhat noisy, but are not “hikely to hurt anybody but themselves, Generally, Mr. Packer is well thought of in the Lehigh section, but notin such a light as to mate- rially effect the vote of the rival parties, The increase that he will get above the ordiuary vote will come more on personal grounds from those whom he has beuefited than upon any otler, The Fifteenth state Senatorial district, consisting of Northumberland, Montour, Columbia and Suitivan, in which there will be an election next Wedneslay, 4s tn a state of uproar over the rival democratic can- didates., Ex-United States Senator C.
