Readers will find on the second ing's Tripuxe Hocea Biglow’ Professor James Russell Lowell of Cambridge—latest and best Paper, | copied from advance #heets of The Atlantic Monthly for May, for which we are indebted to the publishors, Messrs, Ticknor & Ficlds. It is not short, but who- aver begins it will not stop reading till he has reachod the end. Professor Lowell is an accomplished linguist, but knows no tongae botter thau the original Yaukoe. The news from Germany seems to point to at least a postponement of opon Lostilities. The note from the Austrian Minister, Karo to Bismark is deci- dedly pacific, and has obviously embarrassed the Prussian Government. Unwilling to confess their disown any aggressive intentions with regard to Aus- tria. The middle states of Germany are arming, and most of them have very emphatically come out against the policy of Prussia. _ The report previously mentioned in Tie TriBuNg that the French army was to bo withdrawn from Mexico in threo instalments, the first of which is to leave in November, 1866, and the last in November, 1867, is now] officially confirmed by the Moniteur. The organ of the French Government significantly adds, that it hopes this will satisfy the Washington Government. The last sensation story from Washington is the rumor of a proposed duel between two distinguished Senators. The difficulty is said to have occurred out- gide the Senate Chamber. The challenged party is in no need of proving his courage by accepting an invi- tation to face a pisto] at twelve paces, and it is hoped the difficulty will be arranged without any such foolish exhibition —— The United States sccuritios continue rapidly to riso in the European money market, as will be scen from the following table: NEWS OF THE DAY. ——— FOREIGN NEWS, The steamship Persia, from Liverpool, April 7 Queenstown April 8, arrived here yestorday, bringing threo days later news.

His procla- mation of Universal Freedom in Temessee; his insisting that every Rebel State shoud ratify the Constitutional Amendment as a preroquiite to resto- ration; his general bearing toward tio rejected “corner-stone” of the late Southern Confederacy, fully entitle him to it. Why, then, can e not await the award which is so certain to be favonble?

Only let it be established and recognizd as a funda- mental basis of American institutions that ** there shall be no taxation without representaton,” and our people will thenceforth be calm, pvsperous and united. All can be settled—all resentnents buried, all difficultios removed—by the generd recognition and adoption of that principle. Then why mot adopt it?

A captain of a passenger boat, on the Lake Pontchar- train, plying between New-Orleans aud Mobile, per- mitted a common gambler to swindle a passenger out of $750 by the ingenious contrivance known as the weat cloth.” Judge Busteed decided that the mas- terof & vessel was bound to protect his passengers from fraud aud imposition, by preventing such prac- tices, and directed a decree to be entered against the captain for the amount taken from the passenger. The decision involves a question of great importance, and is, wo understand, to be taken to the Supreme —— PUBLIC PRINTING, or Anthouy—always courteous and forcible— has endeavored to correct popular impressions that Congress has grown lavish in expenditure for Public Printing. o says the total expenditure for this ob- ject is not $2,000,000 per annum, but $1,750,000; and that thia is distributed as follow: War Departmont (mainly blanks) Treasary Departmont, Post Oflice (over)... £154,000 261,000 100,000 weed to print | | the Now C Yet he cannot well disregard | , ad at Jeast Agriculture, 845,000; Judiciary, $28,000. 3,000 Interior Department ...... 25,000 Congrees, including paper and binding. 630,000 Average of the 331, 34th, aud 35th Congresse: 374,000 But Mr, Anthon If enables us to let a little daylight into his exhibit. He is proposing to cut down the Senate’s quota of Patent-Office Reports for 1865 from 10,000 to 4,000; and be says: “1f this resolntion and the amendment shall bo adopted, T am insiructed by the same committee to offer another resola- tion reducing the number of these documents for 1853 and 1 4 1n ! 1ike proportion.

DOMINION THE NEW DOMINION, The war has left statesmen in Virginia. May the breed multiply ! One of them, fitly elected to repro- sent the Staunton district in Congress, inquires of the people of his State: *Why, with all her advantages, has Virginia never been prosperous? Simply because | she has been almost exclusively an agricultural State, and has expended all the proceeds of her crops in buy ing from the North a thousand things that she should Lave made at home. All that wo received from our tobacco, wheat, end other agricultural products has been expended in the purchase of goods from other States and countries. We have thus been always kept poor.” True as gospel, Mr. Alexander H. H. Stuart! What your policy of confining your industry to raising and exporting raw products has done for Virginia, the British Free Traders would fasten on our whole country. Diversi- fied industry alone will make Virginia rich and ndependent. Old Btate ! throw off your de- pendence on Now-England as well as old Eugland. Quit buying of both and go to making!' There are the gerns of greater Lowells than Lowell in your Richmond, }'roglerlckubur;. and Petersburg. Protect your industry, by protecting that of all the States; give o guarantee through polities that thfs Protection hall be permanent; and more money will be sent to you to develop your coal, iron, copper, gold, and pe- troleum, and to set your falling waters to work, than your wildest dreams ever hoped-for.

It is quite startling if one-half or one-third in Mr. Sharkey's estimate have been dying of. We know that recent destitution has thinned the rauks of both Black avd White, the former chiefly; but absolute extinction does not sort with a disposition to acquire real estate. What, then, has been killing the Blacks ? Is it war? or Reconstruction? i5th inst. says that a The Memphis Argus of the itizon " has received a com- “ deeply colored Federal ci mission to hold the Freedmen's Court in that city. If he is well qualified as well as decply colored, wo #ee no objection to the appointment. ——————e The cattle disease, which has appeared in Panawma, if not the European Rinderpest itself, scems fatal enough as an epidemic to ify every caution on the part of Goyernment. Quite in we are fortus nately provided with a law against the importation of neat cattle;and Secretary McCulloch has enjoined all Customs officers not toadmit hides until fully satisfied that they are free from discase. It is important to ex- @ the strictest vigilance, especially at our threat- ened Southern ports. Owing to official ignorance and the want of vigorous probibitions, the plague was lately re-introduced ia London, where we should think its iptoms would have been well known, But the disease basan insidious and concealed character, against which we can guard our ignorance ouly by the exclu- sion of all foreign cattle, and that particularly at the ports on the Gulf, and the South Atlantic. 'We need not remind the Government that the Rinderpest, or something likeit in its worst features, prevailed among the cattle of Florida and Georgia not very many years ago, or point out the terrible consequences of a ca plaguo in the South a t time.

This went into the Supply bill at the last moment. People are in luck who work for tho State on contract. No matter how much they may make, they quietly pockot the amount. But if they loso, the Btate is called on to mako up the deficiency. One of two things should be dove: either the State should stop making contracta with individuals, or hold the latter rigidly to their engageme Contracts of this character have ceased to be of the least account.

I am sorry to hear that a powoerful effort is boing made to defeat tho Senate bill anthorizing the taxation of stock- holdors of bauks and bankiug associations, to which I ad- verted a day or two siuce.
