THE JVom th X r. era id. r :. ...n.Vrn iRw, progress, nn'l iVrMtanHy, we have u, in tho 01,1 World the bwI Hiucfule ot ail "armea poaso, kvhich for the interests of t-ivilwUion is Jioarly, if not quite, a, .Imstron as pro Iraetec. war. Euroim Acumen, who li ivo cyer roRared oar republic as but, nn oxpori ineut at best, must b.iva botm niipressa.l with tho peculiar freedom find el iM icily of institu tions which, ufter nudcrgoiug tho fierce or deal of civil war, bo soon pjrinitled tho dis Landincof martial hosts and the resumption f those things which make for peace and tho iiroper development of the material interests of the nation. We are a young poo lo but we have nothing to learn in tho art of governing from the ellcte monarchies of the Old World; wo envy not their political Hiatus, when, to use tho language of one of Iheir organs, "in the midd e of tho nineteenth, century, when modern civilization is at its highest point, the effective of tho 'ariuod peace' of Europe consists of nearly three millions of men, and the w.tr budgots pro Bent a total of about four hundred millions of dollars." Austria maintains a permanent army of two Lnndred and eighty thousand men, ut a cost of forty-five millions of dollars; Spain sponds over twenty millions for her army, number ing some time ago about two hundred and forty thousand men; Italy takes from her by no moans ulethoric treasury twenty-six mil lions for an army of two hundred and twenty thousand men; tho peace footing in Germany Is in the neighborhood of three hundred thou sand troops, and costs well nigh forty mil lions; France keeps over four hundred thou sand men under amis, aud pays seventy mil lions; the immense Russian urmy takes eighty millions from the State's resources; and Great Britain's regular troops, militia and volun teers, cost the Government over seventy mil lions of dollars. Thus seven States alone expend about three hundred aud fifty million of dollars annually in maintaining "peace footings" and preserving doubtful safeguards to rather shaky European equilibriums. To those svi-dlnant philanthropists who Lave been harping upon universal disarma ment as alike practicable and the best and purest means of doing away with wars and inaugurating a millennium of durable pence an ample field for operations is here offered. Who would not wish them "God speed" in their labors and assure them the "thanks of millions yet to be," could they satisfy the world that their efforts would eventually effect tho disbanding of armies, put an end to the terrible scenes of the battle-field, and teach nations to settle their differences with out resorting to the dread arbitrament of the Bword? European potentates, however, en tertain far different notions, aud seem to be acting upon the principle that the best means for preserving peace consist iu maintaining large standing armies, ready at any time to take the field at their master's bidding. Napoleon, when ho declared some time ago io the Legislative Chamber that "the influ ence of a natisMuJegends upon the number of me!j; li Jii put under arms," might have gone ""jurther and added that tho safety 'of his Gov ernment required a standing army of four lmndred thousand men to protect it when threatened by enemies abroad or imperilled Jby dissensions at homo. General disarma ment, under existing governments in the Old World, is farther, perhaps, than ever from realization. The figures already given show to what extent mutual apprehension of attack and want of confidence in the people has led European powers, and how impossible any thing like disarmament must ue so long as this feeling continues. It has existed for centuries and will exist forever in the tustorv 01 monarchical i eovern- ments. Great wars and great slaughter are the natural consequences of great and rival armies. "When there are superfluous soldiers occupation will be found for them; and it is folly to talk of durable peace when nations are armed to the teeth, and jealous of each other's power and progress. Apart from the burdens of taxation and oppression arising from these extensive armaments, other and prolifio sources of discontent are springing up and rendering the situation more criticaL The people, long patient, are beginning to appreciate the condition, and talk of roform and revolution. A crisis is approaching, and the future is dark with doubt and uncer tainty. Public confidence is paralyzed, and commerce suffering in awaiting a solution which shall dissipate the manifold sources of evil. Binoe the uprisings of 184ft popular discon tent has not been so general iu Europe. The people, becoming educated to the ideas of modern progress and reform, are aspiring to popular government; they are growing rest less under oppression, and, emboldened by partial triumps, are clamorous for disenthral jnent, for enlarged liberties, for the cessation of that disastrous "armed peace," and, above all, for liberal, generous legislation. While nothing like a general outbreak in resistance to existing government seems imminent or probable, there is an undercurrent of revolu tion, a decided opposition to continued tyran ny, which is not to be trifled with, and will in due time redound to the greater liberties of the people. The time has passed when popu lar Bentiment or the aspirations of a people lean be stifled at w ill by monarchs and their jninions. Even tho aruiy the solo reliance of continental despots cannot always bo de fended on. The French soldiery have before fraternized with the people in Opposition to tyranny, and there sprung from this union, rphenieral though it proved, "The French republic, liberty, equality, fraternity." The revolution now anticipated it is hoped jrill be accomplished without war or blood shed. The gradual march of modern ideas, lending to liberal and constitutional govern ment, is being felt on the European Conti nent in a way which promises "a new era loss in the interest of absolutism and more in favor of popular rights." Great Britain, Under the pressure of popular demand, is con ceding reforms. France is following, and we find Napoleon nos only parleying with tho champions of extreme republican ideas, but according tho ministerial decapitation of Borne of the sUuuchest friends of imperialism.

It n mains to bo seen whether tho current of revolution now prevalent in Europe will be directed with moderation in tho smooth chan nel of pence, or, by ill-advised zeal, bo com pelled to find vent in tho ruggnd one of war. France is the main field of action just now, and much depends upon the result of tho in itiatory contest now in progress. A popular uprising in defiance of imperialism could accompiiKii noining so long as iNnpoleon is sustained by his army; and this fact is doubt less too well appreciated by tho leaders of tho opposition for them to act with unduo haste in precipitating the crisis or provoking a con flict. Tho future, at all events, whether for peace or war, is fraught with momentous issues for the peoples of Europe, and we can only hope when the fight does come, if come it must, that those immense standing armies, now a curse to modern civilization, will be used for monarchs against monarchs, instead of by monarchs against their people. THE NEW CABLE LAID. From the A'. T. World. Another mighty marvel is accomplished, and that, too, almost "without observation." J. he Great Eastern, esteemed for a time the most useless, has once moro vindicated her claim to be regarded as the most useful of nhips. As easily and quietly as the ordinary steam-packets of commerce transfer thoir freight of human lives and human works from wharf to wharf, this gigantic vessel has onco moro linked the thoughts, feelings, wishes, fears, interests of the East with those of the West. Another Atlantic cable has boon laid; another mystic submarine nerve stretching from tho heart of the Old World to the heart of the New, abolishing tho stormy interdict of the unquiet sea, making Paris and London and Now York but wards, as it were, of one grand cosmopolite capital. At it was but natural to expect would bo tho case, the French cablo has been laid even more rapidly and with less risk and difficulty than its predecessors. Science doids now with the bed of tho Atlantic, unseen and for ever to bo unseen of human eyes, as calmly, with as much assurance and as precise a fore cast, as if it were tho well-trodden highway of countless tronerations. We accept the achievement as the merest matter of course and few of us will pause from our daily en crossinents, perplexities, and hopes long enough to bestow even a second thought upon a talo which is vet striking and wondorful enough, were it but fully appreciated and pon dered on, to hold children from thoir sport and old men from the chimney-corner. But this is not all. It is a melancholy truth that tho chief dif Acuities with which tho bold projectors who are now the successful performers of this new wonder have been called to contend, have been not the abysses of the deep to be sounded and spanned, nor its wild waves to be traversed, nor its tempests to bo foiled, but the selfishness, the blind greed, the smallness of men. From the incoption of this enterprise to tho present moment which sees its greatest natural problems happily solved, it has been watched, assailed, under mined by the jealousy tho short-sighted, but therefore only tho niore implacable, jealousy of the proprietors and managers of tha cable previously laid from Europe to America. With this enemy it has heretofore been forced to contend in season and out of season. Had the success of the second cablo involved the destruction of tho first, it could hardly have been more vehemently, more persistently fought against. And the great public, which can hear ot such squabbles over sucn a sub ject only with indignation and contempt, must not be surprised to learn tnat tne actual con. nection of this new cable with tho telegraphic lines of our own continent is still threatened by the same influences which have so fruit lessly been brought to bear against its pro- cress up to tho present nour. ine nrst American terminus ol tne A rencn caoio is tno French island of St. Pierre, off the coast of Newfoundland. There it was landed. Another reach of easily submerged wires is now to be made to bring it to our shores at Duxbury, in Massachusetts, it is as piain as mo sun in heaven that this comsummaiionK the under taking must inure directly and largely to the advantage ol tne whole American people; and we are quite sure that, only ten snort years ago, the idea of holding this consum mation in doubt even for a moment we will not say upon any probable, but upon possi ble hostile action of the American Govern ment would have seemed to every sane per son in the Union the merest midsummer madness. But within these ten short years both the theory and the practice of govern ment in America have undergone many sen. ous, and, for the most part, decidedly lament. ablo modifications. Not the least striking proof of the extent of those perversions is the fact that persons interested in the monopoly heretofore enjoyed by the British cable com pany have not hesitated, of late, to put about all manner of stories to the effect that "the Government" would interfere, at the last moment, to prevent the people of the United States from enjoying the benefits of a new and .enlarged telegraphic intercourse with the rest of mankind. Such an interfer ence, it is true, is as improbable as it is obviously unjustifiable No law of the United States exists, laying an embargo on tele grnphio or any other intercourse between the American people and Europe. Doubtloss Congress, in the plonitudo of its unwisdom, might pass such a law; but doubtless, also, Congress has not passed such alaw; and in the absence of such a law, it is hard to see in . what way, otherwise than by a shameless use of sheor physical force, unwarranted aud un sustained by law, tho GoTernineut either of the United States or of any other State could possibly interfere to prevent people who have brought us the good gift of a now telographio cable all tho way from Europe from conferring that good gift upon us. It is hardly to bo be lieved that the administration even of Presi dent Grant will care to saddle itself with the odium, at home and abroad, of pandering in this way, by violence, to the schemes and in terests of a private corporation in order to paralyze a rival or at least concurrent, enter prise of infinite pobli moment. The real scandal is that any considerable number of people should have been brought to entertain the possibility of such a thing. It is another heavy count in the nations growing indict uient against its Radical mis rulers that their habitual lawlessness and their open corruptibility should , have given color of plausibility, even for a timo, to a scandal so damaging to our good nauio AS a free, enlightened, and civilized people "RECONSTRUCTION" IN MISSI3SIITI. Prim the A Y. Worhl Tho proclamation of General Grant fix ing the timo for tho ljjtioa in MU hissippi, and designating th ) parts of the new constitution to bo submitted t a sepi rate vote, does not chailerigi spj.ii d rem.irk, except in relation to the time. ThiM is n necessity, and no good reason, for deferring the election until tbo JIDt.h of November. The im.tive for selecting so distant a diy is eisily understood, and is discreditable to General Grant and his advisers. There is no such difference in the circum stances of the throe States of Virginia, Mis sissippi, slid Texas, that their several elec tions should be separated by wide intervals of time. The people of Mississippi, and tho pMiple. of Texas, wero just as well quali fied, and as fully prepared, to pronounce their judgments on their respective constitutions in the early part of July, as wore the people of Virginia. But the object of tho adminis tration is not to get a fair and honest expres sion of the will of tho pooplo, but to carry each election, if possible, in favor of the Ro- publicon party. 1 wo United States Senators are to be elected by each of the now Legisla tures, and six conservative Senators will not be tolerated if, by any kind of political trick, their election can be prevented. If tho Wells party had triumphed in Virginia, the elections in Mississippi and Texas would have been ordered almost immediately; but tho Repub lican disappointment in Virginia makes tho party afraid, aud so General Grant postpones action m Mississippi as long as ho can, and leaves Texas to await the result of tho Mis sissippi election. I ho pretense that tho elect ion is put off until the end of autumn to suit tho conve nience of the cotton-planters is an impudent absurdity. Their wishes have not been con sulted or considered. It is notorious that they desire earlier action. What is the loss of a single day in attending to the cotton crop in comparison with tho releaso of tho State from military rule ? Out-door industry will be suspended dozens of times by rain-storms; and an election, even in the busiest season, would have no more effect than one addi tional rainy day. It is put off until the last day of November for no other reason than to enable the Republicans to organro a cam paign to defeat the will of tha people. Radi cal wire-pullers and stump-orators dare not venture into Mississippi during the hot months; and General Grant has appointed the election with a view to givo them the advan tage of a busy caAvass during the cool au tumn months. The Republicans hope to bring such lnllucnces to bear upon tho Mississippi negroes as will enable them to control tho w hole negro vote; and President Grant is their subservient tool. The result iu Virginia was such a disap pointment to the radicals that it "gives them pause." They hoped to carry tho State by an ali'ectation of liberality in consenting to throw out disfranchisement and the test oath. Having committed themselves to this policy, they cannot very well back out of it; but finding that their mock magnanimity does not profit them, they are at a stand as to tho course they will pursue in the other States. They wish to solve the Virginia problem, aud see what can be done to circumvent the de clared will of the people there, before run- ningthe risk of getting other cases of the kind upon their hands. It would he awkward and embarrassing for Con gress to reject the ntv.v Virginia Government; and, on the other hand, it would go against the grain to admit two conservative Senators from that State. The only way out of the dilemma which has yet occurred to the radical leaders, is the applica tion of the "iron-clad test -oath to the mem bers of the new Government. So long as the radicals were confident of carrying the State that test-oath was kept quite out of sight. But when, as the election approached, they lost heart at tho premonitions of defeat, they incited General Canity to declare his intention to enforce the oath. General Grant's recorded opinion, and General Canby's own recorded opinion, should have bound them to a diffe rent course; but what Republican cares for consistency when tho success of his party is at stake ? General Canby's present argument is, that the now Virginia Government will be merely provisional until Congress shall have sanctioned it; and that the original recon struction acts require all the members of pro visional State governments to take the iron clad oath. This requirement had reference only to the Slate governments organized under the auspices of President Johnson, aud was not meant to apply to the reconstructed governments. At least, so General Grant de cided, and so General Canby himself decided, in previous cbrcs. But the radicals do not nieun to stand by this view if they can help it: and General Grant, in spite of his strongly expressed decision last year, has referred the question to Attorney-General Hoar for an official decision. If General Canby's present view is upheld, it will practically nullify the result of the recent Virginia election, inasmuch as Canby permitted it to he supposed, until long after the conservative candidates were nominated, that, the oath would not bo required, and a great many have been elected who cannot take it. The radi cals calculate that the oath will fling out a sumcient number oi tne conservative nieiA bers of the Legislature to leave tho radicals a majority, when they can proceed to elect two radicals to the Senate of the United States and, this result secured, Congress will make a sure thing of it by admitting the State. If this dishonest and detestable manoeuvre suc ceeds in Virginia, the radicals will have more confidence in the resources of their duplicity and fraud for circumventing the people of Mississippi and Texas. HOW THE VIRGINIA ELECTION IS IN TERPRETED. Prom the Ar. Y. THmen. By the Republican press generally the ro sult of the Virginia contest is interpreted fairly and practically. There is no disposi tion to claim it as a mere partisan triumph, tfnd none to concede the pretensions with which in the first instance Northern Demo crats attempted to invest it. Mr. Forney's two papers continue their carping criticism, and the sheet which echo:s the mortification of Mr. Wells at Richmond labors hard to mis represent both the causes and consequences of his defeat. These exceptional grumblers only render more emphatic the congratula tions of Republican iournals eisownere, and more significant the meaning they attach to the ratification of tho Constitution and the election of Mr. Walker. The fill-iiervadincr feelincr 18 one of satisfac tinn and honn. Without pausing toanalyzothe motives of all who supported the Walker ticket, our Republican contemporaries see in its success the gain of the administration and nf b reconstruction policy with which it is identified. They recognize in the union of influences by which success was achieved "the annihilation of the prejudices and passions which have separated white and hlaok, aud the strongest assurance of political equality in the future. They are satisfied with the constitution as adopted, and with the rejection of provisions which would have pjr- etuated peril and strife. They are cm vineed tl at the eloctioa was fairly conducted, nnd tl at tho result expresses the settled desires end purposes of a groat majority of the people. Thus applauding both the result slid the means by which it was attainel, it is not surprising that tho mischievous sugges tions of llioi-o who do not like to confess ll.emKehcs defoatol m jot with little favor. It is felt that they who would foster divisions i niong the supporters of reconstruction in Virginia are as culpable and foolish as tho liemocrats who pretondod to diseorn a party advuiitago iu an event involving tho repudia tion of every distinctive principle by which 1 lint party is known in the North or West. This confident estimate of the situitionin Virginia bus been greitly strengthened by tha course of the Governor elect, and the tem- eride and jr.st tone of the local press. At ichmond, at Washington, and in New York before his constituents amid the excite ment of victory, in his interviews with the President and with friends of tho adminis tration Mr. Walker has held the same lan guage, lie regards his own election, on tho platform he occupied, as in effect a triumph tor the tirant administration. He assorts his determination to stand aloof from every influence, personal and political, which may tend adversely to tho development of tho policy incident to reconstruction. He is re solved to uphold the black man in the exer cise of his rights, and to promote harmony and good feeling between the races. The Virginia journals that wero most effective iu the canvass assume substantially tho same position. They insist that old partisan issues shall bo discarded, and that tho promises im plied in tho election of Mr. Walker and the ratification of tho Constitution shall be ful filled by the people. Nowhere do we trace a sign of bad faith, or of any feeling or purpose which the friends of reconstruction should not hail as satisfactory. Everywhere, on tho contrary, may be discerned evidence of the complete revolution that has been wrought in the sentiments and temper of Virginians, and of their title to the confidence of tho Presi dent and Congress. THE INDIAN COMMISSIONS. From the X Y. Times. Mr. Vincent Colyer views our Indian pros pects, we fear, somewhat over-happily, since to him everything looks rouleur tie rone. There is certainly a wide difference between his cheery assurance that "by patient efforts nil the tribes can be civilized, and that "in let-s than two years we shall have heard the kht of 'Indian outrages,' " and tho dirlum of tho London Time that annihilation is proba bly the only sort ol civilization the Indians cau hope for. However, there is this to be said for the former opinion, that Mr. Colyer has just come from visiting thirty-one tribes, more or less hostile, while the Times has only observed the sham Indians and sham wigwams they have in London. The present year in Indian affairs may be called a tentative or experimental one tho testing of the peace policy which the Quaker Commission is especially aiming to enforce, and which is supported so cheerfully by the administration. Congress, next winter, will have such an amount and variety of informa tion regarding the actual condition of Indian trdies laid before it, as it has never yet enjoyed. Tho appointment of the Quakers as Superintendents und Agents m so many ln- sfances was the cause of rousing a general interest in the Indians among that denomina tion of Christians. Again, the Indian coun try has been divided into three grand regions, and each of them will be visited very soon by those members of the Indian Commission, who will examine very closely the actual con dition of the red men. Mr. Colyer found everything toojdelightful school-teachers and enness, no violence, no blasphemous word. fsut what we shall be likely to know from the very great attention given to the Indian pro blem this summer, is the exact status of the Indian and exactly what can be done with him. Prom w hat has been discovered thus far we. should say that it is likely that the reserva tion policy will be recommended more strongly than ever, as the basis of all Indian legislation and action; that the whole treaty system will be abolished, root and branch; that we shall never hencelorth make diplo matic negotiations with Indians, as if they were toreign nations; - and that certain at tempts may be made, whether in connection with territorial organization or otherwise, to connect them more directly with our republi can system ot government. NEW ENGLAND GETTING ALARMED. CVom the A'. Y. Herald. The immense emigration to the West and the rnpidly augmenting populations of the States of the Pacific from the importation of Chinese, together with the significant move ments in the South looking to the introduc tion of Chinese or coolie labor in that section, in large numbers, have awakened considera ble alarm among New England politicians in regard to the tenure of thoir hold upon the supremacy of the National Government. The papers are beginning to publish statistics showing how the New England States are losing ground in tho matter of the apportion ment for members of Congress, and how their strength is gradually receding while that of tho West is rapidly increasing. It is even proposed to cut Massachusetts in twain and erect a new State out of the western counties. It is also proposed to make two new States out; of Maine. This-will give New Eng land six additional members in the United States Senate, and a number of members of the lower house. It is probable other Eastern States that can be gerrymandered to advan tage will also be carved up into convenient State communities handy to handle and small enough to clup into the breeches pocket of tiny pigmy politician New England may desira tu iDject into the councils of the nation. We do not learn that the mighty domain of the great State of Rhode Island which, it has been said, is not broad enough in some parts A - 1 , . 1 I ' A . . 1 , io unorti uie requisite spuce ox iweive paces on which to fight a duel according to the code will tome under tho carving-knire of the radical politicians of her larger cities. But while Littlo lihody may be suffered to remain intact, there is no mistaking the fact that the New England politicians are becoming seriously alarmed ut tho prospect of losing their preponderating influence in the Government. Some of the Western papers have taken up the idea aud are pointing to it with exultation, as showing that, indeed, westward "the star of empire'' is taking its way, with the view in prospect of me miiiomu capital oeing established 111 St. Lous a point recommended even by her .rival Bister city, iiucago, nenco the present perturbation among the dry bones of the New Uigland political stagers is but natural.

From the A, r, TriOunt. The President, as wo stated recently, lm decided that Mississippi shall vote on her new Constitution and elect new State officers on Hie fourth Tuesday in November; and tho f-ame day has been designated for the kindred election in Texas. It is well not to be too precipitate in so grave a mat ter, whereof the result is "not for a day, but for all time; yet we could have wislio t it expedient that each of these States should be fully reconstructed before tho 1st of I)o3om- bei: so that the President might announce the gratifying fact in his annual message, and urue Congress to do promptly its part to- v aids roilectincr once more the circle oi an ui.bioken Union. Let us have no haste nseiy to mar the perfection of the work; but, that secured, the earjiest day on which military rule can be replaced by republican self-govern ment in tho States still under the dominion of the sword, is tho best day for tho States and for the Union. The delay that has thus far been found no- ccssary has proved a source oi neaiing. iuo unprecedented maiority by which V lrginia votes to resume her place iu tho Union under a Constitution which Guarantees all rights to all, bids fair to be paralleled in Mississippi and in Texas. The latter has framed a Con stitution so generous and comprehensive that the ex-liobeis win nearly an vote to rainy u; and everything we hear thence loads us to an ticipate the election of tienoral A. J. Hamilton (whom they warmly support) as Governor by a large majority. Mississippi will doubtless lie allowed like opportunities witn lrginia, ana will vote to strike from her proposed Consti tution all prescriptive and disfranchising pro visions by a largo majoriiy. Tho pooplo of both States are more than satisfied with the action of General Grant in the promises; and are quite ready to settle all outstanding dif ferences on the broad basis of universal am nesty with impartial suffrage. We shall be disappointed if we are doomed to wait till Washington s next birthday to congratulate our country on her porieet restoration io peace and loyalty on the comprehensive basis ol all rights lor aii FINANCIAL.
