The movement is simultaneous with that which has been set on foot in New York with a like object, and which is assisted by the adhesion of the President and at least two | members of the Stock Exchange in this city. Mr. James McHenry heads the “reform” pro- fect fo England. Tue Smootme Arrray at Ricumonp, VaA., Yesrervar is another evidence of the evils of ‘parrying concealed dangerous weapons. Two ‘sporting men of that city had beea in busi- aess, then quarrelled and dissolved partner- ship. Snellings, a young sport, aud one of partners, being yesterday inform Monteiro, the other partner, bad been speak- ‘ng of him in a dishoudrable manner, imme- “wolight an explanation. They met, wrangled, and Monteiro was about being pum- nelled when bis antagonist was drawn off by ‘be crowd and he shot bim with a pistol he yras carrying. The wounded man could not Sesist the temptation of a retaliatory shot, and ‘red twice at Monteiro before he fell to the 4 helpless, According to our despatch “n another column it is considered that Snel- fogs will dic. show their hands; but nothing is done. Mean- time the period is fast approaching for the col- lection of these internal taxes, and any bill intended for the relief of the people in 1872 in this matter ought to be passed without delay. The present prospect of any relief to the country in) lessening ou burdens of national taxes, futernal and tariff, fe anything but en- couraging. The Presidential game of the demo- Grats is evidently the game of hampering and baffling the republicans in their relief meas- ures, and then to hold them responsible before the country. Ox the other hand, the republi- cans appear to be afraid to venture into the deep water of financial reforms, because of the qanger of discords and splits that may strengthen the anti-Grant faction. The two houses will doubtless adjourn over, at least from the Thursday or Friday before Christ- mas to the 8th of January, to allow the members the enjoyment at bome of their Christmas and Now Year holidays, so that it will be neirly a month yet before we can expect either House to go regularly to work; and then, from the increasing excitements of the Presidential agitation, we fear that bun- combe resolutions, amendments and speeches, will prevail to the end of the session, We were informed last week that Wedues- day evening, the 13th instant, was appointed for a conference and a confidential oyster sup- per, on the half shell, at Washington, between the anti-Grant republicans, George Wilkes in the chair, and the bewildered democrats, on the project of a joint stock coalition for the defeat of General Grant. So general, how- ever, has been the outcry from the unter rifled democrats of the country against this passive or possum policy, this policy of pretending to be dead when the party is still alive and kick- ing, this policy of reversing the old fable by disguising the democratic lion in the skin of a whole number of Representatives at two hundred and eighty-three—an Insrease of forty over the present numb*7, The State of New York only gots ‘ne member additional, so that it wil! ‘ave thirty-two Representatives in the Gext Congress, Pennsylvania gains two ‘members, Massachusetts one, Virginia one, Illinois five, Indiana one, Obio one, Wisconsin two, Missouri four and Michigan three, It It is estimated that upwards of two thousand visitors thronged the hotels of Lucerne, and some of the best families of France were represented. Merchants, lawyers and farmers, too, were there, and even some of those who held office under the empire were on hand to express their admiration of monarchical institutions. Notwithstanding this imposing show of strength and the Tue Danagr to the republican party of a split which cannot be healed is thickening in the Senate from day today. Let it come, and let us see what is the strength and what is the game of the anti-Grant republicans, The time is at hand for action, Tox Woman Surrraaists are in a state of great consternation, While the Wyoming Repeal bill has been bandied from the Legisla- will thus be seen that the additional members | temporizing cSnduct of Thiers, whose policy | ture to the Executive of the State, vetoed by are distributed for the most part among the Western States, and that the Middle and East- ern States barely bold their own.
