They, too, are worried amith conflicting counsels. The popular party, Jed by such men as Jacoby, are at fierce issue with the party desiring the establishment of a Germanic empire, and, working in between these, are the cliques and factions of the va- rious’ aspirants to existing thrones. Russia is greatly agitated by the serf emancipation Question, the movement of her German princi- ‘palities for special privileges, and the great military levy now going on.

Scrvex oy tHe Isramus or Teuvayre- Pro.—A Washington telegram, which we pub- Msh to-day, announces that, in answer to an application from the United States government for permission to survey the Isthmus of Tehu- shtepec with a view to locating a route for a ship canal, Minister Lerdo de Tejada has written to Mr. Nelson, the United States Min- ister at Mexico, that President Juarez gladly grants permission to the surveying party to make the exploration, recognizing all the ad- vantages which the construction of a ship anal would produce if it should prove practi- cable, The governments of Vera Cruz and ‘Oajaca have been requested to notify the Jocal authorities of those States to aid as far as possible the objects of the expedition and fo protect the exploring parties. Similiar instriuc- tions have been sent to the military command- ers at various points along the route. A commissioner will be appointed by the Depart- ment of Public Works to accompany and assist the surveying party. The expedition passed Key Weston the 31st ult, and probably reached Vera Cruz yesterday. The cordial ‘co-operation proffered by the Mexican govern- ment wilt doubtless aid in securing the success of Captain Shufeldt’s expedition. Tax LAME Derenor, or Naroucon.—The manifesto of the captive Emperor Napoleon in defence ef himself is the weakest document he ever;wrote. He blames everybody and evary- thing for his own failure and the ruin he has brought ‘upon France, except himself. He ~ has, at last merited the title of Napoleon le Petit, which Victor Hugo gave him. It is well Known that. he was the master of Franco and , could do ashe pleased. The army, the gene- wale, the Ministry, the Senate and the Corps Leégislatif, with the’ hosts of office-holders (which controlled ‘every department of the ‘pountry—all were subject to his will. When his creatures clamored for war they were but echoing his wish. He outrages the French people by attempting to lay the .blame on thom. “It is cowardly. Had he been silent Yhere might have been some sympathy for ‘him in his: fall, but not now. He has no @eroism in his nature. His manifesto wili arousé the indignation of France and the con- tempt of all fair-minded people. THe Bartre between Roosevelt and Mc-.

Jubn Wox is working hard for ‘‘Mac,” The Thoronghbred Horse. more useful by having The epoch or age of iron, as, many have termed the first half of the nineteenth century owing to the tremendous system of railroads which prevails in every section of the civilized globe, has not destroyed the utility of the noblest of beasts—the horae. In the darkest perlod of the war of the rebellion, whon the Union commanders wore at thelr wits’ end were harassed pight and day by the inroads end captures of stores, supplies and trains by Sonthorn horse; when John Morgan and Jeb Stuart and Gilmer and Mosby rode. around and through the flinks of large bodies of troops, with but very little molestation, a mighty phantom was evoked to bid them stay their ravages and the cavalry of Sheridan trampled the soul out of Southern resistance into the dust, To-day that same rough- riding horseman is o witness of tho deeds of the terrible uhlana and heavy cavalry of the Prussian army, who descend in the night, no man knowing whence they come, like the Pale Spectre, upon the fairest villages and most beautiful spets of rich and populous France. Mets had to fall hecause the German horse had cut off all pro- vision and food from its defenders before even a gan had fired a.shot against its powerful for- tifications, and Paris must soon follow, though a bombardment may not take place, for were a successful sortie to be made from the walls, even now, it would be impossible for those who made it to find either food or forage within a vast radius of the French lines, The cavalry of the Crown Prince have burned and laid the fruitfuloess of the land bare, and the hopes of a great nation are thus blighted by the terrible requisitions which are made by troops of Prussian hussars and lancers, And here a lessen is offered to the American people. While the great French iron-clads have been hovering/ilonz the German coast, in a manner which has brought contempt on the French marine, Germany, through its fiery horsemen, is devouring and rioting in the sub- stance and wealth of a guliant and unfortunate empire. The sufety of a nation in war time is in a brilliant and well-mounted cavalry, which is fully 2s necessary us 4 sound financial sys- tem or a courageous people, and good cavalry can only be procured by the encouragement of the breeding of the thoroughbred horse and the perfection of private stables in connection with the noble spori of horso racing. Eng- land owes her safciy thus far to the fact that her people are an athletic and horse-riding race, whO sre at home in the saddle and the manly sports of the field. And how is it with us? Have we not advanced with wonderful strides in equine sports since the introduction of Medley, Diomedo and Messenger, the sires of the American race horse? An awakening change has come over the land from Maine to Oregon, and everywhere we hear of the in- auguration of new race tracks, of the forma- tion ef Jockey Clubs, and of splendid and enthusiastic assemblages of people gathered together to witness the running of fine horses, collected and bred by the public spirit of gentlemen whose pride and glory it is to make the turf a theatre of exciting sport and honorable association with each other. The past year has indeed been an eventful and progressive one for the American turf. Polite society is no longer afraid to look down upon a three-year-old from the cushioned seats of a grand stand. The people who attend at a matinée given by Nilsson can new look without horror upon a quarter stretch. The champions of refinement and good society have placed barriers of propriety and decency around the race track which the breakers of the law and. the dangerous clagses cannot overleap. It is a wise saying that ‘hat which is begun well mast end well.” Wii's vux Marren Now ?—Only three or tour days ago’ we bad the pleasure of con- gratalating Horace Greeley for the publication of a card in which he deprecated personalities and vitaperation in discussing political met and measures. But, lo! searcely had the ink with which this highly commendable cpistle was wrilten become dry, when Greeley breaks out all over asif ho had had a sudden attack of the smallpox, and, grabbing his blanted quill, dips its bitterest end into a oup of gall and blazes away in his old-fashioned way of calling people ‘‘liars,” ‘‘viliains,” ‘‘idiots,” aud 80 on to the end of the Billingsgate vocabulary. What's the matter? What's broke loose? What has caused this remarkable change in our philosophical ¢ontemporary’s virtuous resolution? - Do keep cool, Mr. Greeley. You already have heen once in Congress and are aware what « bad place it is; in short, “vou know how itis yourself.”” If you should not happen to he elected this time think of what a frigitful fate you have escaped. Gop 110.—The gold market, freed of the manipulation of the Canadian bank agents and other speculators who lately interfered with its natural direction, is slowly yieldiug to the normal influences of the financial situation. {t may seem singular, but gold was the most siubborn-to decline with the general fall in prices. Wheat is down to old time figures. Cotton would be, too, were it not for the fact that the present yield annually is only a little more than half what it was when cotton was half'as cheap. Taking the crop of 1869-70, it is now worth only what the crop of 1859 or 1860 was worth in specie times, “Silks are now cheaper in greenbacks than they were in gold.

Why don’t you give us their names, Mr. Conkling ? This is an important accusation to be made against democratic Cougressmen, especially when one must hail from the city of New York, where its greatness depends in a great measure, upon its commercial prosperity. Senator Conkling on the same occasion paid a very handsome compliment to his Honor Mayor Toll, for which that popular official must feel very gratefal..

Sr. Jonn, Oc. 4, 1870, A remarkable land slide has just been atscovered at Red Head, five miles northeast of this city. It occurred between the residence of a man named McMullen and the shore, the distance between them being 500 feet, The sunkeu part consisted of a grove of several hundred trees, intended as a shelter tothe residence from the winds blowing from the sea. In the grove were a milk house and a stone house. A girl going to the former by the usual path from the house found that it led her te precipice of from nine to ten feet, On examination it was found that a patch of Ixnd of about nalf an acre had sunk trom five to twenty feet, the slide being circular in fown and the bine clay and ground surrounding it, which are very hard, being cut as with a kulfe.

Such relief cannot come; but by lessening the cost of transporiation we can aproa point, It is @ narrow spirit that complains tnat the reduction of tolla unjustly favors the West Our true policy is to encourage toe West, by every means, to use our highways and patronize our workshops.
