ENGLAND.
IMNt-nvli's I'limnrlnl Policy.
The London Times of August 27 contains the
following:
A distinguished statesman was wont to avow
the opinion that the best test by which a man
cou'd bo judged miiiht be lound In answer to
the question whether he pays his way. We
should be loth to commit ourselves to so sweep
ing an opinion, rememberi'ipr, as we must, that
Air. Titt and Mr. Fox, dillerent in all else,
agreed in this that they were both over head
and eats in debt; but, judged by a purely poli
tical standard, what better test of the capacity
of governing can be suggested T Alt bad gov
ernment, as Air. Carlyle remarks in his diagno
sis ol the French revolutiou, ends in Insolvency.
The ten ptation of a weak minister is corruption,
and corruption means increased expenditure,
and increased expenditure means repeated
deficiencies. The weakness of an incompetent
minister is extravagince, and extravngance has
the same ultimate result as corruption.
It will be seen on examination that the liberal
Administration bequeathed to their successors
an expenditure in process of reduction, and that
Air. Disraeli has managed to change the order,
and to convert a jearly decrease into a yearly
addition to the national charge. In 1862 our
expenditure for everything except public debt
was little more than 43,000,000. This is a fact
which should be kept in mind. It is not by any
means the miulmum attained by the late Gov
eminent, but it is a useful standard of com
parison for subsequent years. Consider what
followed. The next year saw a reduction,
and the next year and the next. They were
the years dnrinp which Mr. Gladstone was at
the fiuaucial helm, and the facts cannot
be disputed. A gross optional expenditure
of 43,000,000 in 18C2 tell to 40,840,000
In 1863, was broueht down to 40,000,000 in 1864,
and to 39,680,000 in 1865. We have thus a re
ductton of more than three millions of 3,320,
000 In three years. This does not exhibit the
full extent ot our national progress. As each
year bryught forth a surplus there was each year
a reduction in the form of an abolition of taxa
tion, and in the process of reduction account was
taken of a pos-ible increase in the several
branches of Income and a remission effected
accordingly. Thus it happens that the taxes
remitted exceeded the apparent amount of
the reduction ot expenditure, The surpluses
secured were applied towards the reduction
of the national debt; the prospective and
greater surpluses were applied in the remission
of taxation. In 1863-4 the balance of taxa'lon
reduced was 4,615,000. In 1864-5 this balance
was 3,135,000. In 1865-6 it was 5,343,000. In
1866-7 it was 600,000. In the tour years we
have a total of taxation reduced or abolished
of do less thau 13,693,000. But in 1866-7 the
scale was turned. The conservative Ministry
came into power and the balance was at once
thrown the other way. We are now only
stating facts; we will consider presently the
apology presented for tbem; but what are the
facts? In three years the optional expenditure
has grown, says Mr. Childeis, irom 39,680,000
to 43,730,000. The clanicity ol the revenue
has gone and the expenditure has increased.
Every item of charge has been swollen. We
have had to nay more tor the army. We have
had to pay more for the navy. We have had,
in a still ereater proportion, to pay more for tue
civil tervices. The very charges of collection
have increased.
Telegraph Cables to America Coiniuer
cinl Harmony.
The London Times, ot the 28th ult., says:
"It seems to be will understood that the new
French Atlantic Telegraph Compnny and the
English one will work with a rational under
standing to develop without contentious rivalry
the utmost capabilities of the service. From
the day of the successlul working of the English
cable it was almoct universally regarded as a
certainty that the Arid would soon be entered
by ninny competitors, while in some quarters
there was a di-poiiion to believe that the
branch of enterprise would create the basis of a
new revival of wild speculation. If anymore
companies, bowever,nhould hreutter be formed,
it Will bo entirely through mismanagement on
the part of the existing ones. It was in
dispensablo that The Continent should have
an independent line, and France was
its natural starting poiut; but there is
neither political nor other necessity for addi
tional communication, and any future increase
in the number of cables should come as a result
merely of the pressure of business consequent
upon the tkill and vigilance of the managers of
the present lines in ceaselessly Reeking to give
new lacilities and to reduce their charges, by
cntertainlne In concert every practical sugges
tion that may from time to time be presented
lor the purpose. If any one company existed
there would always be the dancer of lta man
agement tailing under the Influence of a clique
who would prevent every new idea from reach
ing the Board, but any such result will be
improbable when two separate nations are
concerned. Under these circumstances
the prospects or the undertaking seem
as free from risks as could be hoped
for In any work whatever of public magni
tude. The fact that nearly one halt the
length of the cable will be in a depth of water
Involving no peril of any kind, aud that the
Other half will be in depth freni which, incase
ot accident, the piactU ability of recovery has
alrt ady been demonstrated; insures to a great
extent the fulfillment of the enterprise without
the likelihood of any espenso beyond such as
has alieady been fully providea for: while, as
retards income when success shall have been
achieved, the fhaiehoMers can entertain not
only the knowledge that the existing profits of
Atlantic telegraphy could be divided with hand
some results between two compinies. but that a
wide conviction prevails that these profits form
but a small proportion of those destined to be
attained when the itiU'rcourse between the two
hemispheres shall havo been BJtbcienUy opened

Mr. C. Beely, Jr., Liberal candidate for Not
tingham, England, addressed a meeting of the
electors, aud in the course ot his speech said:
He took it that the Liberal electors wished to
get relorms iu the next parliament; they wUhed
todlseetablUh the Irish Church; they wished to
have a redistribution of seats; for the ballot; a
reduction in the expenditure, and minor points.
He thought it Doseible they would get tallies

however a very serious one ahead of the
Liberal party. Whether tbey liked it or not,
tl ere was no doubt that a very large number of
the Liberal party in the House was composed of
the aristocracy and wealth of the land; and il
men of extreme opinions were returned they

the land might be rather frightened, and if so,
they might pee a laree secession from the Libe

Ocucral nix on the Political Situation
In tbe United States.
The New York heraidCs correspondent In Paris
writes nndcr date of August 28:
Certain English paper writers, very badly
Informed, and certainly very little Interested in
the grand political campaign of the coming fall
in the United Mates, have undertaken to state
the views of two or three of the American Min
isters abroad on the questions involved in the
coming election. One paper has stated in the
most confident manner that Mr. Revcrdy John
son and General Dix were head and head for
Peymour as the next President of the United
Btates. This statemeutl have reason to know is
rightly believed to be untrue as to Mr. Johnson,
and certainly it Is as to General Dix. The latter
speaks with the utmost freedom and frankness
on the subject with all, aud hs no disguise
when one asks his opinion. He says that he
should regard the election of Mr. Seymour at
this juncture as a great calamity, and tbat the
only hope tor the peace and tranquillity of the
country during the next lour years is in the
firmness, good seuse, and patriotism ot Gpneral
Grant. lie speaks with the same freerium
agatnf t the resolution parsed by the Fourth ol
July Convention ot Democrats tor paying the
five-twenties in paper, aud considers it a cross
violation ol the public faith pledged under
circumstances ot imminent danger and difficulty.
He says that the well-known indecision of bey
mour, as well as his conduct during the Kebjl
lion, and the repudiating declaration ot the
Convention held in New York which put him in
nomination, ought to be decisive of the ap
proaching contest. In every form General Dix,
mindful of the trials and suffering through
which our countrv has nased during th
Rebellion, and with a full knowledge ot the
causes and Influences that prompted it and
carried it on so long, and the elements that are
now ruling the Democratic party, is an avowed
opponent ot the Democratic pnrty aud its leaders
ana candidates in the comim camnaieii. ll u
an open and earnest advocate of the election of
icnerai brant, through which he sees a career
of peace, prosperitv, and tranquility for our
country. 1 do not hesitate to state the opinions
of General Dix thus fully, for he has expressed
them without the slightest reserve to more than
one of my intimate acquaintances. No one who
has talked with him ou the subject has been left
in the dark relative to his opinions, which are
essentially as I have stated above. Of my own
fiersonal knowledge I am sure that I have given,
n a brief manner, General Dix's views on the
coming contest.

French and Eiiglilsh Hints at Revolution
The Paris (Aug. 27) correspondence of the Lon
don Hmte tells the following: Nobody here
seems in the least to know what is going on in
(Spain. We are told that foreign, aod especially
French papeis, are rigorously excluded from
tbat country, and we are driven to suppose tbat
equal care is taken to prevent the exit ot letters
likely to enlighten Europe as to the real state of
things la that happy land. So far as can be
made out from the scraps of news (bat have
reached us, all those Generals who have not been
transported to the Philippines, or otherwise put
out of the way, have given in their resignation.
In fact, nearly everybody of any note in the
country seems to have resigned, except the
Queen and M. Gonzalez Bravo, who are apo
lently governing the country en tee-a-iele, with
we uBBismuce oi a lew priests, ponce agents,
bleeding nuns, and other characters of the kind,
such as habitually figure in Spaulsh political
tragi-comedies. we are not to strppose that
the Marshals and Generals who have given up
tlieir lucrative posts ate prepared to retire into
private life and to abandon forever the jo?s
and emoluments ot power and of place. When
a Spanish Captain General or Minister of War
resigns, it is with the lull intention of coaiiug
back as soon as possible and under more favor
able circumstances. He goes to plot and con
spire. It is thought bv many that Gonzalez
Bravo has made a fatal mistake in letting the
whole of the generals against him. and that his
overthrow is near at hand. The military party
has always had ereat influence at the palace,
and the virtuous Isabel, during the whole of her
now long reign, has never seemed to consider
her soul and body in safety unless she bad a
confesfor ou one side ot her and a epneral upon
the other. Gonzalez Bravo is a bold and quick
witted man: it may even be sa.d that he is a
perfect model of audacity aud unscrupulousness;
but he will need all bis skill and daring to keep
his pltce in spite of the eenera's. One ot the
Conchas is talked of as likely to replace him.
But it seems all rumor and hearsay; there is no
positive intelligence. It is suppled that Senor
Mon may have some, but even if he has it would
haidiy be woith anybody's while to ask him to
communicate it.
The Journal de Paris begins two columns of
reflections on Spanish affairs by fayiug that
"the pret-ent situation of Hpaiu is of a nuture to
inspire serious unea-iness in those persons who
take an interest in the tutuie of tbat country."
This Is a very proper sentiment, exore.-sed with
charming simplicity; but we have so very often
seen Spain in similar disquieting situa-.ious. and
it seems so utterly hopeless that she ever should
get a Government capable of placing aod keep
ing her in a better one, that it is to be feared
very few persons do still take any interest iu her
destinies. It is a fine country, and its people
have many fine qualities and a treat deal to
like In their character; but it has become the
prey of greedy adventurers and of a prolliea e
court, and there is much fear tbat it can never
get better till it has passed through a blooJy
revolution, to which all previous ones wll have
been mere child's play, or, at least! till it has
got rid of the disreputable aud degenerate
dynasty which has so long been its curce.
GERMANY.
The Armament ol the Confederation.
The London Spectator, of the 29th ult., says:
We do not wish to overburden our columns with
statistics or we might arid that Prussia has no
reservoir of energy like Paris, so dangerous iu
peace, so valuable in war; thit Frauce contains
forty-five cities with more than 30,000 people,
and North Germany ouly thirty; that old PrusMa
has but 41,173,000 acres under crop and r ranee
82,061,000; but we have suted euongn to chow
that In available resources, In the power to fight
on a great scale for a long time, the Honenzoi
Urns are not yet the equals of ibe Bonapartes.
Many things may remedy this disparity, indivi
dual genius, organization or the national etiar
ac'er: but on these points observation can tell
us little beyond a few general facts. We Eng
lish, moved, it may be, bv an instinctive
sympathy with all or Teutonic blod, are
apt, especially since eadowa, to think the
Germans the higher race, aud no doubt they
are physically stronger than the French. But
they labor under a gr?at liability to disease,
citizen Hie not quali'ying them lor the open
field. Aims of precision ate as fatal to physical
power as gunpowder was to armor, and French
men can march, when driven, lather the
quicker. In mental power tue Prusiaus may
be f upeiior on the whole, but it must not be
foreotten that the very bpst qualities of tbe
French character its courage, inventiveness,
and elasticity come out more strong'? in war;
tbat in a campaign its main delect, vaulty
ceases to be injurious, while its greatest foible,
febrile Impatience, has all the etU ct of eneruv.
A Frenchman In spirit is a very difficult soldier
to beat, and in this war he would begin with
the conviction, inspired, if not lustlned by
history, that he was tbe better soldiTot the
two. lie .nay not, (if course, be equally well
led, but the impression of Englishmen that be
would not be is little more thso a guiss.
Prussia possesses in Count von Moltke a very
great strategist, strone alike In his genius and
in tbe full couvictiou that it Is the first in the
world, but the seven weeks' war dil not develop
generals ot exceptional ability, and the Prussian
Court has a tendency to pat its trust
in irlocv. K&poluon is cui'iurrfw.ed
In that way also, being nnwilllnf ot
entrust armies to men who hate hli dynastv:
is not much to choose, and tbe French entertain
can sioop lur geuerm among me masses Of tbe
people, while the Prutslan Is limited In his
Choice to the Caste Of the Wpll hnrn. F.lfhnr
may "torn up" a man worth armies, but the
processor inrning mm np win b9 quicker In
democratic France than aristocratic Prussia.
Tbe single point which in this respect is unfa
vorable to France is her autocratic regime,
which in eighteen years may have exhausted
her stock of genius, nut it must not bo forgotteu
tbat this regime has been hss autocratic in the
army than In any great department of French
life. The empire nas tew ministers of genius
cynics say but one but the army must have
many an original general in its ranks. We are
far from the folly of attempting to predict,
should tbe great fight come off, to which side
victory will incline, but we can venture to say
with confidence that North Germany has reason,
terlous reason, to think deeply before she aban
dons the hope of peaco with France.

IIYDJtOPJIQBIA.
Proposals to Nhoot the Sufferer.
The Louisville (Ky.) Journal tells the follow
ing story: '
'About three weeks agoanegro wonvmuaraed
Manha Holland, who has for some time past
been in the employ of Mr. Brasier, and worked
as a field hand upon his place in Christian
county, about nine miles west ot Ilopkinsvllle,
In this State, was bitten in the leg by a do".
The wound was small, and as no evil effects
were anticipated, nothing beyond the ordinary
treatment was resorted to. about one week
after ihe biting occurred, unmistakable symp
toms were manifested. The first decided evi
dence was clven by the girl menacing nnd run
ning alter Mrs. Bratier, who was rescued by her
son, James Brasier, who caught the girl and
tied her, but in doiig so Martha scrached him
from tbe effects of wh'ch hehassinso gone mad,
and is now in the asvlum at Hopkinsville. His
condition is almost as bad as that of the girl.
After this became known in the neighborhood,
a meetine was held by the people, and they sen
tenced the girl to be shot.
"The execution of the sentence was delayed
and finally revoked, and it was decided to send
the girl to tbe lunatic asylum at Lexington, as
tbat is tbe only instituiion in the State where
colored patients ot this coarncter are received.
The dog that has caused all this trouble bit a
little curat Hopkinsville ronie eight or ten days
ago, and it is said that the victim died from the
etiects of the bite. Every officer but one iu
Christian county decline t to take tne girl in
charge to deliver her to the keeper of tne asylum
at Lexington. This one Is Deputy Sheriff James
A. Bobbitt. To prevent the possibility ot further
harm to others, as the girl was constantly trying
to bite or scratch her custodians, her too and
finger nails were closely trimmed, and her teeth
were knocked outl It is impossible to keep
clothes upon her, and she was all day yesterday
in her cell naked.
"Uue remarkable fact connected with this case
is that Ibe psiient retuses to taste food ot auy
Kind, or to drink water. She is so obstinate in
this particular that Sheriff Bobbitt informs us
that it has been twelve days since she had taken
nourishment of any description, or swallowed
a drop of water. She has not had a lucid in
terval sinc9 the attack, but his slept. Her
conduct in the ce'l is boisterous, and indicates
no booily pain. She will sing, call the names
of acquain'aLces, whistle, curse, jump, and
wallow about ou the floor. If you speak to her
she will answer you, but not mtelltsently.
Several physicians of this city were to Lave
visited her yesterday, but we believe they did
not. The doctors do not agree in estimating
tbe character of the attack. )r. A. A. Kowland,
of Christinn county, pronounces it monomania,
while others say tbat it is clearly hydrophobic,
to the latter of which opinions we incline; but
we leaTe them to determine the noint. We have
given a concise statement of the facts as they
were given to us by the officer having her in
chaige."
A ROYAL BIGAMIST,
A Sensation In the Capital oftho RhsmIas.
A scandalous affair has afforded food for
gossip to the people ot 8t. Fetersburgh tor some
time past. Many months ago (says a correspon
dent) there was a vasrue report that the position
ot the Russian Vice-Chancellor, Priuce Qjrtscha
kott, had been somewhat shaken by an intended
matrimonial project which the Emperor did uot
at all approve. The Prince had offered a home
to a young relative, a Madume Akimfjew, the
wife ot a lieutenant who had been evneliV.,i mm
his regiment lor his dissipated habits and dUre-
puiauie conuuci. it wasgeueraily believed that
as soon as the divorce suit could be brought to
a satisfactory termination, and the d spensatton
necessary for marrying a relation coald be ob
tained irom the Gieek Church, Madame Akimf
jew would exchange her uot very harmonious
name for thbt of Princess Gortschakoff. But
though tbe suit bad been pending lor several
year, no judgment had been pronounced, and
the delay was attributed to the wishes, perhaps
tbe commands, of a very exalted per.-onage.
This suspicion was m all probability well
founded, but recent events have moved that in
otber respects the public was aliosretber on a
wrong scent. A Prince and a Minister is all
very well, but Madame Akimijew How at hlher
gamf, tor tbe happy man ot her choice was no
oiLer than the DuKe ot Leuchtenrierg nephew
of the Czar of all the Russins. The Emperor,
not uunaturally, was ex'remely oopo-ed to his
relative's intended marriage, and tbrea'enei bis
severest displeasure. It was, however, all to
no purpose. Madame Akimfjew left St. Peters
buig under the pretence ot visiting a Herman
watering place fur tbe benefit ot her health, and
about the same time Prince Leuchtenberg went
seemly en board an Enelish ship at Rina. The
place chosen for the rendezvous is not stated,
but at all events a marriage ceremony was
solemnized bctwien the fugitives by a Russian
priest. It is hardly necessary to observe that
the marriage Is invalid, as the lady had a bus
baud livina at the time, from whom she bad not
been divorced. Considering the cool publicity
ot the bigamy, the high rank of one ot the
parties, and the defiance of tbe Russian auto
crav, tbo case is certainly a peculiar one, and
may still, perhaps, affect Prince Gortschakotl's
position, as it was only through hU influence
that the lady succeeded in obiaiuing bur pass
port. Republican Nomination.

far In the week has been very ilmitxri nrf .
Western cities are well supplied with money. At
Chicago It Is reported that the Increased prompt
ness or century collections na relieved the neces
sities of merchants, so that they require but little
accommodation, aud at the saaue time an Increase
is noticeable in the deposits of the banks having tne
largest mercantile accounts. Ihe movement of cur
rency (rem that point to the country continues large,
however, through the oommlsslon agents, who are
remitting to grain buyers, and It Is estimated that
two millions were sent In this way from Chicago last
week, while tbe receipts of grain averaged about
tour buadred thousand bushels, or as much as the
railways running through the district from
which the erop la being marketed coald cary. The
movement ot gralu eastward Iron Uatoago has been,
meanwhile, sufficiently large to prevent any accs
niulatlon there a clrciiusuince which has facili
tated tne opeiatlons of tue banks to conducting such
heavy bniiness. Toe Western banks are making
moderate applications for discounts at tuisomtre in
some Instances; but notwithstanding this, aod the
heavy crop movement, wbtua has now been going
foiward lor a considerable length of time the Impor
tant fact remains that money la st II superabundant

least, therefore, our predictions relative to the
cootse 01 tbe money market this autumn have been
realli-ed."
-Messrs. W. P. Wright & Co.'s Cotton circular, per
Jura, says:
"In this market tbe tendency has been toward
lower prices. Belters have sbwn more desire to
meet buyers: and though cur quotations show only a
decline ot l.Sio. per lb since this day week, sales have
been made at a great reduction. Cottons from the
dock aud tn arrtv are off red freMy at a still lower
ran ue of prices. Contracts far delivery In November
have been made at goo. for Middling; In Dacemer. at

worm Is at wrk. We find, however, In the letters
and papers very little specification ot actual damage,
except in 1 ome localities from boll-worms, but the
promise ot plenty la the future. We think the ac
