CUBA AND T. DOMINOO-Ol.K SOUTH- WAKl) MAUC'H. From the X. lr. IlrrahU It iiitpeiirs tluit tlio FrcMldent. Hwtcnod very at tentively to the verbal report of ex-Vice (.'omul La Rcintrie who bus Junt returned lro:n Cubit, where he linn been riiMUini' in ollieinl utiition for more than two years frequently interrupting Mm and ankintf him questions. In the opinion of this oflieial the Cubans have ndoptud u wise policy In not uccoiitlnv; an opiui battle in the field against well-organized and diseiplined troojM; and the question of their suecess l merely one of the ability of Spain constantly to reinforce her wasting and diminishing army. In this statement wo do not doubt that Mr. La llciiitrie lias hit the nail on the head. The in terest exhibited by tho President shows that he is fully alive to one of the most prominent arid urgent questions in American politics. Cuba will not only be very soon applying to our Gov ernment for recognition as a State under her newly-organized republican form of govern ment, but at no distant date will make formal application for admission as a State within our Union. It behooves our public men, and particularly those in the Government, to study these ques tions, and to take care that the Government doe not lose the present most favorable occa sion to advance our national policy. The initial question In these movements the one that requires immediate attention and action is the ono opened by the offer now made by the Dominican republic. Torn by selfish leaders and factions for scvcr-il years, St. Domingo has found a period of rest under the rule ot Presi dent 15aez. But the effort and expenditure re quired to repress the bushwhacking discontent of a few unscrupulous politicians divert the revenue of the government from its true appli cation in behalt of peaceful development, and maintain the public authority in a state ot con Htant poverty and weakness. Enterprise and industry, wanting the natural protection which should secure thuir peace, disappear from the land; commerce decays and society is deprived of its highest stimulant to progress. President Bacz has wisely sought to strengthen the fabric of peace by a close connection with the great republic, and his off ers should be wisely eon bidered and acted upon. Theadmissiou of St. Domlngo'as a State of the American Union would guarantee her a repub lican form of governmcntand at the same time relieve the Dominican people from the extra ordinary efforts and sacriccs they are now com pelled to make to preserve the public peace. Nor would there be any increase of cast to us. The presence of the American flair, sustained by the moral power of our Government, would suf fice to preserve the territory from foreiiru ag gression and domestic broils. The arts ot peace would prosper, industry and trade revive, and public and private wealth increase. All of these advantages can be secured by the simple nego tiation of a treaty by the Secretary of State witli the agents of the Dominican republic, and the whole matter can be ratified and ready tor pre sentation to Congress on the meeting iu Decem ber next. Such a treaty is not to be looked upon as a mere attempt at petty annexation. It is, in fact, the arrangement of the formula of our coining southward march, and will be the proud est monument of theadministration which estab lishes it. With slavery the era of filibustering passed away. We have now to digest the form ot that peaceful annexation the spirit of which is already evident in the countries beyond our Southern border. Close upon St. Domingo will follow Cuba. Mexico (cither in portions or. per haps, in one grand mass), and then the rest of the States and the isles of the American Medi terranean, to the Isthmus of Darien. This whole field opens with a most promising aspect to the administration of President Grant, and it is only the first step which requires skill and wisdom. If this is rightly taken, as it can easily be in the case of St. Domingo, the succeeding ones will follow of their own accord. The ad ministration must recognize the duty before it. ami act up to the national spirit in this great . field now open to us. Mil. BOUTWELL'S FINANCIAL JEKKs. From the X. Y. World. When, a few weeks since, the Secretary ol t!ie Treasury announced his intention to" make weekly "sales of a million of dollars in l'oKI and weekly purchases of an equivalent amount of Government bonds, the policy which lie pro claimed, however faulty in other respects, had the advantage of being perfectly intelligible. The steadiness and regularity of" the intended proceedings gave to business men a ba-is tor calculating the future, and regulating their trans actions by what seemed a tolerably certain rule. Mr. Boutwell had a wholly mistaken conception of the manner the rule would operate. lie has discovered, by a brief trial, that it must disap point his expectations, and lie has fitfully changed it. Finding that the price of gold, was rapidly rising, when the chief purpose of his policy- was to depress it, lie suddenly re solved, two" days ago, to double the amount of gold which lie "will pour weekly Into the market, and causes it to be given out that, if necessarv. he may still further increase the quantity, lie has thereby succeeded in arresting the advance. He had the satisfaction of seeing gold fall back ono or two per cent. Nobody ever doubted that, if ho would empty the gold out of the Treasury at a Biifliciently rapid rate, he could ' temporarily bring clown its price. There isjut as little reason to doubt that the temporary de pression thus artificially produced will be fol lowed by a greater ultimate rise. The easiest way to reach a clear understanding of tills subject, is by first considering the nature of Mr. Boutwell's original miscalculation. If he hud steadily pursued the policy which he tirst announced it lie had regularly parted with a ' weekly million of gold and purchased a weekly million of bonds the consequence would have beeu that an export of gold would have t.iken the place of au export of bonds to meet the foreign balance against this country. For t lie last ten months our importation of foreign goods have amounted to fViSO.O Kt.lMl at a gold valuation, and our export ot domctic pro- . ductions to only 147,XH).00O valued in cur rency, or a little over KHI.(HHMhh) valued lu gold. To offset thu heavy foreign balance against us, we have been regularly sending abroad Government securities. The bonds purchased by Mr. Boutwell and kept in the Treasury cannot be exported: and gold, so far as gold is available, mnt be sent iu their stead. If the supply of bonds for exporta tion were inexhaustible, the weekly withdrawal of a million of bonds, and the weekly substitu tion in the market of the same amouui of gold, should have no effect on the price (if either gold or bonds. In that case, the transactions of the Treasury would only cause the substitution of one medium of foreign payments tor an equal amount of another medium. But the supply of both U limited. A large portion of the boud which now remain in thu hands of American holders will be kept as a convenient form of in vestment. The bonds available for exportation ' consist mcrelv of tho surplus over and above what the interests of thu holders retain in this country. The three hundred millions and upwards which are required to be deposited to secure the circulation of the national banks, cannot be exported. The vast amounts held by the savings banks and insurance companies are equally locked up and unavailable. And then our capitalists, and tens of thousands ol clti.ens who have made small savings, prefer this form of investment because tho rate ol interest i- high, and this kind of property is exempt lr.mi local taxation. The amount ol bonds winch can be used for exportation is approaching exhaustion. When the Treasury comes into the market as a large and constant purchaser, our importing merchant are obliged to look about them for some other means ol discharg ing their debts. If the supply of gold in tho Treasury were exhaustlcss, they would need to peck no other means; but there i not more than gold enough In the Treasury to meet the adverse I balances of six months' foreign trade. If no I more bonds should lie exported, and the gold in tho Treasury shonld be substituted in their nlaeo. tho snnply of gold would soon be ex- , tiausted, ana uie price run up to enormous and frightful figures. It was in view of this result, to which the policy of Mr. Boutwell, as first an nounced, inevitably tends, that gold, to his great amazement and consternation, rapidly advanced when he expected It to decline. Stunned and bewildered by this unexpected recoil of his own engine, the Secretary has re sorted to on expedient obvious enough, and which for a time can be made effective enough, for arresting the strong upward tendency of gold. So long as his reservoir in the Treasury Is unexhausted, lie can ulwavs, by pouring it out fast enough, creato a supply of gold in the market in excess of the demand, and bring down the price. But if lie continues at the same tlmo to buy bonds and arrest their ex portation, the. gold will Immediately find its way abroad, and he can keep down tho price only for the brief period necessary to exhaust tho Treasury. Then gold will go up with an elastic and uncontrollable bound; the importation of goods will be stopped in default of any resource for payment: there will be no further replenish ing ot the Treasury with gold; the Government will lack the means of paying the interest on the public debt; confidence "will bo shaken; the Treasury will bo forced to resell at a ruinous discount the bonds it has been purchasing; and distress, panic, and bankruptcy will overspread the country. Mr. Boutwell is plunging headlong towards these hideous consequences by the jerky, fitful measures which he adopts lu his desperate endeavor to arrest the advance in gold. SMITH AND SUMNER. From the X. Y. World. The collision of skulls which lias just taken place between Senator Sumner und Mr. Gold win Smith will hardly knock much practical wisdom into cither head. But it may possibly startle some well-intentioned people who have hereto fore suffered their five wits to bo muddled, by the many words of those men and men like these, into reflecting on the monstrous absurdity and peril of mistaking demagogues for 8tate inen and dogmatists for philosophers. The nonsense which Senator Sumner has keen talking about the moral responsibility of Eng land to America, and the equal nonsense which Mr. Smith has beeu writing about the iuflucnee of Mr. Sumner's talk upon the passions and the purposes of the American people, it Is easy enough for any man of average intelligence to recognize as nonsense. There probably arc not ten educated men of mature years outside of a lunatic asylum or of tho State of Massachusetts who have for a single moment seriously enter tained the notion of enforcing upon Great Britain, either by argument or by arms, a claim for damages duo this country to the extent of half the cost of the civil war as the only just expia tion of the crime committed by Grout Britain in treating the Southern States as "belligereuts." And there certainly arc no more, if so many, such men who can see in Mr. Goldwin Smith's feverish warning to all British residents of America to pack their trunks and be ready to flee, anything but the preposterous terror 'of an unbalanced mind in a dyspeptic body. Yet for years on years past these two personage have been com manding influence and authority, both in Eng land and in America, by utterances not ono whit more sane, more measured, or more tenable under lire than these. What Mr. Sumner ap pears in his speech on the Alabama claims, that he has appeared in all his speeches on important public questions. His temperament is essen tially rabid; his methods are essentially rhe torical. His harangues on the wrongs of ''bleed ing Kansas," his denunciations of South ern secession, his attacks on North ern Copperheadism have all been of a piece with his latest diatribe about Eng land and' England's moral obligation to make herself a party on the side the Union in our late civil war. It is not Mr. Sumner who has changed at all. It is Bimply the atmosphere which has cooled around him. This the English public do not know: and so it is that his Alabama speech passes with them, like his speeches during the war, as tho voice of a whole people crazed with a passion like his own. This the American public do not know: and so it is that the excitement of the English public over his Alabama speech seems tons an insane exhibition of moral gymnastics, like tho convolutions of a ball-room watched by an ob server too far distant to hear the strains of the music which sets all those whirling groups in motion. As with Mr. Sumner, so with Mr. Goldwin Smith. Mr. Goldwin Smith's appeals iu behalf of the Northern cause, made to the English people during our civil war, were !recisely as hot and hasty, as illogical and as intemperate, as his recent letter to the London Huhicr protesting agaiust any further emigra tion of British subjects to America. But be cause his heat and his haste, his contempt of logic and his effervescent temper, thou made hiin echo our own wishes and our own hopes, our own passions, fears, hates, and preferences, we chose to accept him as a great and wise teacher of men. It is one of the calamities of such a state of things as that from which we arc now slowly emerging, that it upsets and con founds both the intellectual and moral standards of the general mind. Any man is wise and clear-headed, to u people crazed with war, who approves their policy and urges on their wrath. Any man is just and noble who joins with iiiem iu ineir neree woi'K. it never occurs to them to retlect that tho worst and weakest of men are precisely the men who are most likely to drift with the overwhelming tides of a great popular emotion, and to snatch from tho easy commence of an excited nation the iirizcs which in calmer times it would be impossible for them 10 acquire. Jiavc we not seen a Sickles inula Butler accounted little less than apostles and martyrs for putting out hands stained with all imaginable corruptions to accept from the re public its highest honors, both civil and mili tary 'i A tcore of years hence, such moral mon strosities as this may bo as comical probably as the intellectual perversion of a Smith and a feumiicr into national guides and political phtlo ophers. But we are still within the penumbra ot i he gross delusion, and it is matter as yet rather lor sadness and for shame than for satire and lor mirth. THE GOLD GAM BLEBS' PANIC. F'om the X. Y. Tribune. There were symptoms Saturday of an abate ment of the flurry in gold which the gamblers in natii mil dishonor hae !een exciting for several days past. They have done their worst, without moving Secretary Boutwell from his declared purpose of using" the surplus public money in the Treasury to reduce the national debt. He has thus far bought iH,(KK,(HHl of bond per week, selling 1,(M1,(M)0 of gold; this week Jio will sell lira millions of gold, nud will sell more "'d buy more bonds so soon as he shall see tit. He will not be hurried in the promises, since it is not his policy to depreciate the market price of the only connnodnv ho has to sell: but ho muKcs no secret ol his purpose to ilisposo of all the surplus u-OU tn(. Trvusury i)t.Voud a fair working balance, and invest the proceeds in some form of national debt. Having fair notice ot his intention, every one can govern liiinsulf accordingly: ami those who are caught "long" in gold when the premium falls heavily as fall it ii.ut-iimy rail at the Secretary if they choose, but can justly blame only themselves. Ihe Turns tries to show that we were staggered wnh regird to the right of tho Secretary to cstillish a sinking fand because two months ago we oi.je.ctcd to one provision of the Public Credit act that it seemed intended to prohibit, the reduction of tlio public debt bv the use of the surplus gold In the Treasury." We made this objection just as the clause iu ques tion was devised und passed without thinking of the provision for a sinking fund in tho Legal tender act of ISti'J. Whether Congress would have repealed that provision it it had been thought of, we cannot say; we only know that It was not repealed, and is now in full fort. We have never thought or said aught in eou travention ol this: never cherished any doubt of it. The TiiK object that the interest on the bonds now bought is not saved, because It is still to be paid iuto the biulutig lit ml ! Tlwt is to say, no man has anything that he does not eat or drink to-day ! We insist that the interest on every bond placed in the sinking fund is absolutely saved from the hour of its purchase taved as truly as though it were not appropri ated to tlio payment of our debt. If it is a re proach to-desire to reduce steadily tho principal ii well as pay punctually tho interest of the debt, we claim our full share of it. Wo do not support this policy because' it involves the maintenance ot a protective tariff; hut that is iiii.iiiii iii uiu new iiu oiijecilon. irt. niiiii ni-ll!

I.... & ' mm til, n,tiwi iu rtll lie IU, IllOrC. 1)1 course, it is natural that tlm Tim annul.! wish the Treasury, "as a first duty, to acquire and keep a strong reserve" of gold, and that it should stigmatize tho policy of paying so fast and so far as we have means as devised "for the benefit of two or three particular classes." We do not mind that, since it is not denied that we would have the Government do exactly what it promised when, by the Legal-tender act, it laid a basis for the immense loans that carried us triumphantly through the war for the Union. we would do It because (rood faith lmnnrativolv requires it. - We would do it because good policy fully concurs. ATc would do it in tho spirit of that glorious resolve of the Chicago Convention wiiien nominated Grant and Colfax, that it is our true interest to treat our public creditors so wen mat incy win scck to remain such, and that others will compete with them for the privilege. Wc would do it in tho interest of that reduction ol the current interest on our national debt which the Times deems impossible for years yet, but which we regard as feasible at an early day, and of the very first importance. Last, not least: we would do it because tho law of the land clearly requires it. "ENGLAND WILL NEVER FIGHT." From the X. Y. I'imen. It is often said that the contemptuous and boastful tone which every nation adopts towards its neighbors and rivals means nothing. And it cannot be said too often that a vast gap lies be tween such talk and action. Vet. after all this, there is no doubt that tho popular boasts of a country have a considerable iuflucnee on its public measures. AVhen the English sailor of the past century believed that he was unite equal to any two "Johnny Crapauds," or the French man or to-day thinks that no foreigner can pos sibly stand against the bayonet charge of tho .ouaves, or when the Southerner, before the civil war, was thoroughly convinced that one Southerner was about equivalent in light to three lankces all these boasts or delusions did un doubtedly affect public policies. The cry before our civil war, that "the South would never fight," had a profound and most disastrous effect, especially in leaving us unprepared when the struggle came: and a similar cry at the South, that "the North was a jicoplc of cowards and traders," without doubt induced the leaders to push matters to the extreme, tho conserva tive classes not believing that real war would come. Of course it is natural and best that each na tion should consider itself invincible and as fully aide "to whip tlio world," but those boasts over other countries should be sparingly indulged in, and must not be allowed to affect governmental relations. A most mischievous cry, re-echoed in this country among the demagogues for a number of years, and now quite believed by large numbers of persons, is that "England will never fight." Whatever we may do to her, or however abuse her, she is too much absorbed in trading, and has too many "dangerous classes lw,mi nvnp ti-i flo-bt 1 "iwlor thi imfinnr ,-vnu here ol Southern Democrats, the policy always was to drive iMigland to the wall, ana to come as near insult and menace us was possible. Even in the civil war her abstinence from any offensive movement was attributed more to her greed for gain aud a kind of mercantile timidity, than to her sense of justice. Her foreign policy in Europe for some years has been of the most peaceful, not to say timid nature; her people have seemed to many here and on the continent to nave somewhat lost the manly und warlike vigor they once had. A large maioritv in this country devoutlv believe now that nothing could force Great Britain to blows. Look at her commerce, thev say open to privateers ou every sea; her manu factures destroyed through a want ot cus tomers by a war: her agriculture insufficient to feed herself; her dangerous classes boiling with socialistic and revolutionary elements her Fenians ready to revolt and separate Ireland from hngland; and Canada, opou to 111 vasion all this will alwavs bind her over to keep the peace. "She dares not fight !" Mr. Wendell Phillips, iu proposing to tho American Government to revolutionize Cuba, says that if England dares to interlere, we "will land an army in Dublin and cover the sea with Ala bama !" Even Mr. Sumner must have felt something of this contempt for England, when he ventured to propose that she should make an humble apology for the declaration of bellige rency, and pay a bill of costs which mav bo reckoned anywhere from 500,000,000 to ?,00(),- 000.1)00. Now nothing could be a greater mistake than such a sentiment about England. She is indeed the trading nation of the world, and the one that has most to lose by war. She has the caution ot an old veteran who knows what hard blows mean. But pluck is a tradition with every J'.ng lishman personally, and a national quality Much as England loves money and commerce and peace, she would sec every trading packet burned, her manufactures swept into tno sea, and her rich fields made us Georgia was behind Sherman, rather than submit to a national in dignity or give up what she considers her just right. There is no doubt of this to unv one who knows the English people She lias the same old fire which has blazed out on so many battle fields, anil which burned so recently in the veins of her offspring who sacrificed the lives and wealth of a whole gene ration ratlnr than suffer a wrong to triumph and the nation bo overthrown. Not a ghost of a Party would be f Mind on the side of peace in Great Britain if the nation once believed itself insulted, and about to be forced to bear indig nity. The Liberals and peace men would then be on the side of war. The "dangerous classes" would vanish, as did our New York rowdies during our struggle; the Fenians would be of no more account than are our disaffected Indians now; debt and expense would be forgotten, and thii stored wealth and capital of centuries would be poured out for the work of destruction. Nor would the old motherland be a contemptible au tagonlst. Thirty millions ot compact people burning for war form au enormous power. The British navy Is a tremendous implement; and the cx erimcni 01 landing troops on the coast 01 jreianii, with a neet ot a thousand hostile ves sels watching the ocean, we can imagine would bo somewhat hazardous. Modern warfare is a contest of purses, and in such a struggle the little island would stand equal, at least, with any competitor. Tlio tri t'l Is that England is not essentially different from America in a readiness to take offense, and in sensitiveness to insult, and she will fight quite as readily, and with as much persistence, as her warlike offspring.

The key to the safe n which we kept onr securities was locked Inside of our fire-proof book safe, the doors of which were literally cut to pieces ; from this they obtained the key to the other safe and opened it. Fortunately we had one of your Burglar-Proof Banker's Chests Inside, In which our valuables were deposited. This they went to work at with a will, and evidently used up all their time and tools In vain attempts to force it. The night was dark and stormy, and the fact of their knowing where our key was kept shows that their plans were well matured. They tried wedging the door and body of the Chest, and the faithful safe bears evidence of the labor and skill devoted to the work. All was useless, and It Is with great satisfaction we report that upon opening it we found our securities all safe, and can therefore cheer fully indorse the Burglar-Proof work recommended by you.
