Tlie Eniopean Imbroglio.
The Scot a brings is two days' later news from
Europe. The most important Item of informa
tion is the reply ol Louis Napoleon to Earl
Cowikt. It comes from Paris by way of Vicuna,
rind is to the effect that duilng the late financial
panic in Loudon, Earl Cowlbt, by order of the
Government, r,olicltcd the energetic mediation
of the Emperor Napoieok In favor of peace, and
received from his Majesty the following reply:
f "In tbe years 18C9 and 1864 England opposed mr
proK8alR in reference io thesttt etnentot the Vene
tian and 8cn,ewlg-lulslolu questions. Jio i'-og-land
wants peace. I a so desire peacj hut an the
most favorable opportunities have been lrittered
away, and as the conflicting interests have been per
mitttdto reach a p nt at which must clash, I
can no lomjer assume the responsibility of event."
That Is a very significant reply, and means
that war Is pretty nearly inevitable.
The London Times despairs of pence. The
Conference bids fair to amount to nothlug,
because the hostile powers refuse to submit to
its decisions the very questions about which
they are disputing. Austria says, Oh yes, hold
your Conference; but understand beforehand
that you must not discuss the subject of my
ceding Yenetia to Italy on any tefrms."
And on the other hand, the Federal Diet at
Frankfort, on the 1st, accepted the invitation to
the proposed Conference, with the reservation
that the question of Schleswig-IIol stein and
federal reform are matters of an csent'.ally
German character, so long as they do not affect
International relations.
So the Congress, when it assembles, will And
it has nothing before it for discussion. It may
turn itself into a scientific convention, and dis
cuss the "New Metrical System;" or it may
resolve itself into a literary body, and criticize
Napoleon's "Cresar;" but with the practical and
pregnant questions of European politics it can
not deal. Napoleon has doubtless seen this
from the commencement, aud his great aim
will be to turn the Congress to as good account
as possible for himself and the course he intends
to pursue. He ia master of the situation, and
he declares that the hostile interests "must
clash."
Depository of Disbursing Office is.
Tm 8enate, yesterday, passed the House bill
relative to the dispo-it'on to be made by dis
bursing officers ol moneys remaining in their
hands. The bill makes it the duty of every dis
bursing officer of the United States, having any
public money intrusted to him for disbursement,
to deposit the same with tbe Tieasurer, or some
one of the Assistant Treasurers of the United
States, and to draw for the same only as it may
be required for payments to be made by him in
pursuance of law; and all transfers from the
Treasurer of the United States to a disbursing
officer shall be by draft or warrant on the Trea
surer or an Assistant Treasurer of the United
States; provided that in places where there is
no Treasurer nor Assistant Treasurer of the
United States, the Secietary of the Treasury
may specially authorize, in writing, tne deposit
of such public money in any other public de
pository. To facilitate the payments to public creditors,
the second section provides that 11 any disburs
ing officer of the United States shall deposit
any public money entrusted to him in any place
or in any manner except as authorized by law,
or shall convert to his own use, or shall loan,
with or without interest, every such act shall
be deemed and adjudged an embezzlement of
the money so deposited.
Tbe third section provides that any bank or
broker, or other person not an authorized do
pooitory of public money, who shall knowingly
receive flfom any disbursing officer or collector
of internal revenue, or other agent of the
United States, any public money on deposit, or
by way of loan or accommodation, in so doing
shall be, for every such act, deemed and adjudged
guilty of an embezzlement, and any President,
Cashier, Teller, Director, or other officer of a
bank, who shall violate any of the provisions
of this act, shall be adjudged guilty of an em
lezzlement ot public money, and punished as
provided.
The adoption of such a law as this is a needed
reform in a matter of great importance to the
nation. The recent example of the failure of a
Washington bank and the loss to the Govern
ment of over half a million of dollars, is the
most cogent argument In favor of preventing the
officers having the selection of a depository for
the funds In their possession. The vast power
which has been thus vested has been in the
greater number of cases faithfully exercised,
but the opportunity for evil has been fully
demonstrated by the evidently fraudulent action
of the Paymaster in the capital. Under the ne w
system no discretion is given to the officer. Tbe
Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer will be the re
cipients, and In their hands the moneys of the
public will be safe. It also greatly restricts the
amount of iunds In the hands ot the paymasters.
They will not hereafter pay the subordinates in
currency, but In orders on the designated deposi
tories.. By this arrangement the Government
secures for iteeir the interest on the sums which
would otherwise have gone to swell the perqui
sites of the publto servants. The new plan
peculiarly commends itseir, and we can see no
objection to it, unless it comes from these whose
emoluments are curtailed by the reform.
'If thi Rebbls are not fit to live with us in
. tbe Union, what a pity that the radicals did not
make the discovery in lBtil instead of 1883 !"
Ag.
We do not doubt but that the regret of the
Age and Democratic leaders is most poignant.
They not only desired that no efforts should be
made to keep the South in the Union, but also
took active steps to prevent their compulsory
submission. Having failed to secure for them
Independence, they now desire that they should
rule the nation, as they failed to ruin It. And
eo open are they in their sympathy, that we are
calmly told by a leading Journal that "it was a
rlty" any effort was made to prevent secession.
The Amerlcaa (Senate tut It at Present
Standi.
TnKaa arc those among us who are continually
drawing comparisons between the state of
affairs as they now exist and as they existed in
the days of our forefathers. If we could believe
these victims of melancholia, the conclusion
would be unavoidable that the world retrogndos
instead of advances. We would he as brilliant
and as able as past generations "if, Tike crabs,
weoould so backwards." Tbe crops are not
as good now as then, commerce is drooping,
and the country is going to ruin. A glorious
opportunity for these murmurs over the glories
of the piwt is found in the character of our pub
lic men. We are continually assured that they
are degenerating; that t'm talent exhibited in
Congress and the Senate at the opening of the
century has now disappeared, and that medi
ocrity baa tflkeu its place. We are not among
those, however, who consl.ier that our day
lacks men as fully fitted to do their tasks as
tboce gone by. We consider thpt the average
ot talent in our public positions has risen
li'Sfad of declined.
Tbe grand centre of all attacks Is the Senate
chamber. Clay, Webster, and CALnoim are
drairged forth and contrasted with the pressnt
occupants of their seats, of course to the un
favorable appearance of our contemporaries.
We are told that there wei giants in those days,
but the fact that there were pigmies is sllirtitly
passed over. We cannot, to be sure, boast of
such prcut intellect, but we have men who are
eminently qualified to carry the nation safe
through any emergency. Fessknden and Sher
man rs financiers; Buhner on foreign relations;
Doouttle on internal affairs, and Wilson on the
military matters, are as fully capable as any
wbo have ever filled the upper Chambar.
TLerc is another cause which tends to make our
Senators appear in an unfavorable light, and
it is that when we differ with a man poll
ticslly, we are too apt to deny him honesty aud
ability, A particular instance of this ia found
in the case of the gentlemen who occupy the
scats of Pennsylvania Senators.
We have read frequent and bitter attacks upon
them, denying to them any Christian virtue,
any intellectual adornment, and holding them up
to the ridicule and contempt of our sister Slates.
We deem such treatment to be at least unwise.
They are our representatives. They are th?cuosen
citizens, and we were the men who elected them.
Why, therefore, attack them, and seek to de
crease the influence of our State by injuring her
representatives? Honorable Edoar Cowan has
not in all things ucted with his party. He has
been slightly eccentric in his official course,
and reminds us of those luminaries whose
oi bits cannot be determined. Yet that he
is horest in bis action we do not doubt.
We do not agree with most that he ha done,
yet we think him an able man, and one who is
conscientious in his doings. Because his con
duct does not meet our approbat'on, is no reason
why we shou.d deny him virtue and Intelli
gence. In regard to Hon. Charles R. Buck alew we see
no cause for either attack or disappointment.
He-was elected by the Democracy, and he has
been a consistent Democrat. We expected
nothing else, and we do rot blame him for fol
lowing out the principles on which he was
elected. Whatever fault there was lay in the
popular voice which alio wed a Democratic legis
lature to be chosen, and not with the man on
whom their choice felL lie ha j displayed ability
of no mean order, and is eminently qualified to
represent the party who chose him. In point
of intellect we do not scruple to compare oar
Senators with any in the land, and while we
cannot agree with them in principle, we see no
reason to weaken tbe State's influence by abuse,
where there is no remedy. Tbe same remark
maybe made of nearly all the United States
Senators, and on careful inspection no one can
doubt but that if we have less brilliant orators,
we have more hard workers and careful
guardians than were at Washington tbiity years
ago.
Bail for Jeff. Davis 'Refused.
Toe reply of Judge Underwood to the applica
tion of Jefferson Davis' counsel for his release
on bail, is short and to than point. He says that
"Davis was arrested under a proclamation of
the President, charging him with conspiracy In
the assassination of the late President Lincoln.
He has been held ever since, and is now held, as
a military prisoner. He is not, and never has
been, in the custody of the Marshal for the Dis
trict ot Yirginia, and he is not, therefore, within
the power of the courU" Hence, while this
condition remains, no proposition for bail can
re entertained.
This leaves the whole subject in the hands of
the President. The opinion of the House of
Representatives upon the releasing of Davis was
forcibly expressed, yesterday, by the passage ot
tbe following preamble and resolution, by a vote
of 106 to 19:
Whereas, It is notorious tbat Jkffkhson Davis
was tbe leader ot tbe late Rebellion, and ts eui t.y of
treason under the laws ot tbe Unite J State; and
uhereas, By the proclamation ot the President, of
Mar, 1866, said Davis was charged with oomoUoitr
in the assassination of President Likooln, and said
proclamation bas not been revoked nor annulled;
tbereiore, be it
Resolved, As the opinion of the House of Repre
sentatives, that said Davis should be held in cus
tody as a prisoner and uljoo ed to a trial accord
ing to the laws of the laud.
We judge that the -'tteru statesman" will con
tinue to board at Fortress Monroe tor some
time to come.
The Increase of Fires.
Newspaper reader's cannot have failed to notice,
for some months past, the alarming increase in
the number of fires occurring In various parts
ot the country. Of course, our great cities have
suffered most; but the ravages of these confla
grations have extended to smaller towns, and
especially to the boats on our Western rivers.
Published statistics in the city of New York
show a very large Increase of fires there during
the past year. The losses from fire have also
been very large In our own city during. the same
time.
There seems no doubt that incendiarism is,
from some cause or other, on the increase. The
facility with which this crime is committed, the
difficulty of detecting it, and the fearful oppor
tunities it offers for gratifying revenge, make it
peculiarly attractive to a certain class of very
dangerous criminals.
Few persons reflect upon the Immense loss to
the community at large resulting from fires. We
speak of losses, in some instances, being "covered
by insurance, but the whole business of Insur
ance itself is merely tbe machinery by which an
Individual loss Is parcelled out among a large
number of persons. It adds nothing totheaggre-
Bate wealth of the community, but is really a
tax upon it.
Our protection aeaiusl fires must be sought
in great part in measures of prevention. In all
large and closely built cities, buildings ought to
fire-proof, or so nearly sj as to prevent the pos
sibility of a w de-spread conflagration. Mills,
factories, and other large and valuable build
ings, even when standing alone, 'ought to be
constructed w Ih special reference to their safety
fiom fire. The original cost of such buildings
may be more, but the saving in the long run
wllLbe sure to vastly overbalance it.
Inventors have long and vainly sought some
more rapid and easy method of extinguishing
fires than we now possess "Fire Annihilators"
have been announced, but they have failed to
be practically efficient Water still remains as
the only reliable ally we have. The steam fire
engine Is the greatest of our modern improve
ments in t ne means icr applying water to o irn
Iniyr buildings. .Whether have yet reached
the limit in that direction may be questioned.
Removals from OffioiJ. Hon. Thomas Wil
li a ms reported, yesterday, from the House Com
nitttee on Judiciary, a bill limiting the power of
the Piesident to remove from office. The law
provides that no officer appointed bv tbe Presi
dent with the advice ot the Senate, can be
removed except by the same agencies which
concurred in his appointment. If an officer is
disabled or a defaulter, during the recess of tho
Senate, he can be removed, but his successor,
can draw no pay until the Senate consent to his
appointment. Unless ihe Senate recou8rm an
appointee t.t the end of bis term of ollice, he
ccai-estobe an official, and his post becomes
vacant. Any man rejected by '.he Senate cannot
be appointed after its adjournment. Such are
the main features of the bill. Its effect is evi
dent, and it adapted will entirely change our
preccnt system. The laBt clause is to prevent such
a rase as that of Gencial Jackson and Martin
Van Buren, who, when rejected as Minister to
Knglano. was at oi co reappointed bv "Old
Hickory" the moment the Sena'e adjourned.
