Mr. Stevens attempted yesterday to introduce 8 resolution of congratulation on the escape of the Emperor of Russia from an assassin.

Thero are hirty to re to Seven-Thirty F00,000,000 provide tection. the over be re way, and in a very short time. We cannot « this money by any system of direct taxation 1t ereating heavy burdens; .and the necessity of 2 $300,000,000 in currency, and at the same 'wenties, to be ready upon the day of the Seven-Thirties mature, 80 as to be prepared forany decision the holders may make, is to place upon the Treasury & burden of enormous magnitude. The money market cannot but suffer from the ignorance of provid the Department and the indecision of rote-holders. | If the money value of the Seven-Thirty loan is upon the market in currency, we shall have a period of inflation more extended, and, in the end, more disastrous than at any time of the war. If we confine ourselves to Five- Twenties as the only loan to be taken by those who returned Seven-Thirties, and hold an abundance of money, we merely assume a new six per cent gold- bearing loan for at least five years succeeding the ma- turity of the Seven-Thirties without taking advantage of the increase in National prosperity, the abundance of money that National prosperity will bring, and the opportunity we shall bave of reducing the rate of in- terest and creating a sicking fund for the payment of | the National debt. By the plan of Mr. Sherman, the Government, like any pradent money-dealer, will know six wonths in advance what it will be called upon to do—the amount of money and of bonds it will have to provide. There will be no chance to create a panic or to demoralize the business of the country. At the same time, this fourth section is merely a matter of convenience, and not an essential part of the bill, and we are not anxions about its fate. We wish to see the Govern- | ment reduce the rate of interest, and thus save 16§ of | the amount of the interest to be paid annually; and, in the second place, apply the money thus saved to the payment of the National debt. Aswe showed yesterduy, by negotiating $2,000,000,000 of a five per cent loan, and applying otie per cent of that amount with com- pound interest for forty years, we shall be able to pay off §2,000,000,000 of the Nationaldebt about the end of the present century. For thisreason, we were willing to accept a thirty or forty-year loan. Toprovide against any contingencies, however, and to make the job of paying our debt a3 easy a8 possible to our children, we should be willing to aceept a longer loan than that provided by Mr. Sherman's bill—fifty years, for in- stauce. The main points upon which we feel like in- sisting are: L. That the six per cent and seven and three-tonths per cent loaus shall be converted into five per cent loans £0 soon as the terms of their creation will per- mit. 11. That the Government shall not pay more than five per cent for money, when other countries, with- out one-Lalf of our resources, can obtain at it a lower rate. 111 That the loan shall be for as brief a period as prudence will permit. IV. That a sinking fund shall be created, to show that we are sincerely anxious to pay our debt in time, and that, as an earnest of our faith, we provide the means for doing it. The fear that we cannot negotiate this loan at five per cent is unfounded. If we could borrow $685,- 954,000 at six per cent, aud $198,241,100 at five per cent in time of war, we can certainly reduce the rate to five per cent in time of peace, with the country rapidly increasing in wealth, and a fair plan of taxa- tion.

The stirring events in Germany find, of course, an echo among the Geruan population of this country, which is supposed to number more than five million souls. The points on wkich the immense majority of the German people have come to an understanding— opposition to a civil war, the right of the peoplo of Sehleswig-Holstein to choose, by universal suffrage, their own Government, and the convocation of a National German Parliament, to be elected by uni- versal snffrage—meet. so far as we can learn from the German'papers of the United States, with an almost unanimous approval. It is felt, however, that the realization of these popular wishes can Lardly be ex- pected without a severe contest, and that even their realization would only be the prelude to a final and decisive conflict between the national will which claims to establish its sovereignty, and the combined power of the princes, who try to save from the impending collapse of the old confederacy what is possible. The Germans of the United States, conscious of their numerical strongth, feel a natural desire to giva expression to their sympathy with the present popular movement in Germany, and to aid, to the best of their ability, in bringing about the o1 iy solution which they would regard as satisfactory aud fival—the os- tablishment of a German Republic. It is though that whatever difference of opinion may prevail at regards American politics, the majority of the Amer- ican Germans will feel an interest and take an active part in all efforts tending to establish the unity ot Germany and the prineiple of popular sovereignty. A preliminary meeting, to which prominent men ot all political parties had been iuvited, took place in this city yesterday. The attendance at the meeting was large, and a deep interest was siown on the pact of all present in the objects of the meeting. It is expected that this meeting will soon be followed by otbers in all the States of the Union, and it will result in the ostablishment of a permanent orgauization, embracing all the Germans who desire the establisiment of & united and Republican Germary. DOUBLE TREA In the recent treason case—the State of Teunesice vs. Do Witt C. Williams—tried ia the State Cirouit Court at Knoxville, Judge J. P. Swanu ruled as fol- lows: 5 L The defendant by the same act may ln'flalzq of treason against both the United States and the State of Tennessos, d may be punished by both Goveraments for the same act. 5.

The faot that the Rebellion assumed the dimensions and recognized character of @ civil acd public war does not pro- vent the citizens of Tennesses who entered the service of the Conl after that time, from being pusisbed s traitors by the courta of Tennessoc. 5 The Act of Assembly, passsd ou the 31 Cavof lsfil‘,"r!u?fiulln' 80 much of the treason act as May, made offensed e United States punishable as treasou .lfllu Le State is utterly null and void, baving been passed by legislators whom the court Judicially kuowsto have besa engaged treasonable purposes. 6.

Altbough the laws of nations protact the existence of war from prosecntion Lie civil conrts for treason, yet, after the war isover, and peace declared, ths soldiers who participated 1n the rebellion or war, may be pua- 1shed as traitors therefor, &, In triala for felony, the jury are judges of both tho law and the facts, but oniy judges of tue law as propounded to them by the court. belligerents daring The proper test of degrees of sanity or iusanity in all subjects of lunatico imquirendo would be tho pro« portionate understanding or misundarstanding elicitad of the Schleswig-Holstein question. That the old King Frederick William and Count Bismark ace not of very sound mind, in a Schleswig point of view, wo may judge from a grouping of their declirations in one of the French journals. In May. 1463, M. Bix- mark declared Christian IX. of Denmark the ouly legitimate sovereign and ruler of the Duchies; in ! May, 1364, he had no right at all: later, it was the Duke of Augustenburg; later still, the Duke of Olden- burg; then again, King Christian; last of all, tha Kiug of Prussia. Such and other curious accordancos run wild in the diplomatic mazes of the intorminable and inesplicable Schleswig-Holstein question. —_— The Daily News has & London leter which gleo- A BIT OF HISTORY. indorsed aud supported by the Citi \ tions | There have been sarious recent allusions, in our | Mr. Murphy was not. \-\'r urged every one to vote | b sl mul‘ollmrn, to plan, of mc(tnnlnlcliun 1 | for him, as we did not for Mr. Murphy.
