THE 11ED 1UVER QUESTION. Frvm the X. Y. Tribune, When the British Minister at Washington assured our Government that the lied liivor rebellion was peaceably and completely quelled, we ventured to doubt whether his anticipations were not more rosy than judi cious. Already our fears are confirmed. The British and Canadian expedition is in the niie8t of the wilderness, and Kiel, we are told, purposes to fall upon it there with all his forces, and to listen to no terms until the Dominion Parliament has granted an entirely new list of damunds, which seem to have been made upon his individual responsi bility. In some particulars the ultimatum of the insurgent president offers no very grave difllcultios. There are conditions touch ing the public lands, the debts, And the terms of legislative union which Canada can satisfy, at least without sacrifice of her dignity. But the question of amnesty is a very serious one. When the lied ltiver delegates agreed at Ottawa to the terms of settlement which resulted in the Manitoba bill, it is under stood that they received official assurance of a royal amnesty for the leaders in the insurrection. Kiel seems unwilling to trust this promise, or doubtful whether it will bo construed to cover his shocking murder of the unfortunate Scott, and therefore demands a distinct legalization of all his past acts. This of course plaoes the British Government in a dilemma very much like that of the Greek Government with regard to the Marathon brigands, and it is amusing to Bee what a difleronce it makes in English eyes whether it is the Greek ox which is gored or the British bull. The execution of Scott was a murder committed under circumstances of great horror, and the widest stretch of law end common-cense could not turn it into a political offense. A government which should formally ratify a deed like that would make a pitiable confession of its inability to rule, though for the sake of peaoe and on general ttonsiderations of public policy the crime might perhaps be quietly overlooked. It was j ust so with the Greek brigands. They demanded a formal amnesty, which the Government had no power to grant, and the same Englishmen who scout the idea of a ratification of Riot's misdeeds, were furious because King George did not issue a decree both unconstitutional in itself and fatal to the good order of the kingdom. How impolitic amnesty would have been in that case was shown almost im mediately nfterwards at Gibraltar, where a party of brigands, encouraged, no doubt, by the apparent readiness of Great Britain to make foreign countries pay anything and for give anything rather than a British subject should lose his life, fell upon an English household and carried off everybody in the family. If the demands of the Marathon bandits had been granted, half the rogues in Greece would have seized their rifles and gone to the mountains, and not an English man in the kingdom would have been safe. The case now comes homo to Great Britain, and her eyes are suddenly opened. At Gibral tar an admirable way was found out of the difficulty, for they ransomed the prisoners, and then killing all the robbers, took the ran som back again, thus satisfying humanity and justice at the same time; but of the lied lliver dilemma no such easy solution is possi ble. Kiel seems to have brought matters to a pass wherein negotiation is almost hopeless. The population of the lied ltiver country has always been divided in its allegiance, and it is highly probable that in this last revolt a great majority would favor the acceptance of tho Manitoba bill if they had an opportunity to express their wishes. The conflict is be tween the British empire on the one hand, and a few men inspired partly by ambition and partly by fear of outlawry on the other; and of course such a conflict can not be a long one. The movement of a mili tary force through that difficult region will be attended with hardship and danger; but from t hat the nation which sent an armyinto the heart of Abyssinia is not likely to shrink. We do not share the apprehensions which are felt in Washingtown of a general war throughout the Northwest; and though there can be no objection to the proffer of wkatever friendly offices we may be able to perform if we are able to perform any we may safely leave Kiel and Great Britain to settle this difficulty themselves. The Canadian militia, which single-handed whipped 50,000 Fenians, and now talks of declaring war against the United States because we did not arrest O'Neil's army before it reached the frontier, will undoubt edly be competent to manage a little affair of this kind. LAWLESSNESS IN NORTH CAROLINA ITS DEMOCRATIC APOLOGISTS. From the X. Y. Timet. The murders and outrages which have called forth the proclamation of the Gover nor of North Carolina, are made by the World a pretext for arraigning the policy of recon struction. Its censure is directed, not against the cowardly ruffians who are the authors of crime, but against the Government whose authority is exercised to secure their punish ment. Bands of men, disguised, have roamed about the State killing and destroy ing property, and perpetrating nameless out raged, the victims in every case being loyal ists, white or black. Yet these erimes the World mildly designates "vagaries," and their perpetrators are represented as enjoyin the favor of the community, whose sympat thies are thus actively enlisted against the local Government. We quote.- "This Government naturally bas proved powerless to restrain the excesses or the bad because It has proved powerless to comnianil the sympathies of the good In the community. The scandal or the exist ence of such a government has excused, In the eyes of a high-spirited and resolute people, the vagaries of those who, under the pretext of resisting iu op pressions, choose to band themselves together for the gratification either of tbelr political paaslona or of lower and less pardonable appetites." Nor are we allowed to hope for an improve ment. The social conditions here indicated "must remain unchanged," the World asserts, "so long as the system endures nnder which they have been generated." "A people for bidden to make their own laws," our conteru- I.orary adds, "will not rally to enforce the aws which are made for them-" Wendell Phillips, entering upon a crusade against the white people of the South, would desire no stronger justification than that whioh the logio of the World affords. The worst enemy of the South never inflicted upon it more discredit than is involved in the pology of its Democratio ohampion. For the plea nrged in extenuation of crime in North Carolina is equally applicable to every other reconstructed State. The social condi tions which are the assigned cause of murder and arson are not peculiar to the State of which Mr. Holden is Governor. If the rea soning of the World is worth anything, we might expect to find everywhere under recon structed government tho name defiant hos tility to the authority of law and the same sympathy with the organized savagery known as the Ku-Klux Klan. The fact that the prevalence of crime por trayed by Governor Holden is pocnliar to North Carolina, and to parts of Tennessee and Texas, is a sufficient answer to the World't statements. Taking tho South as a whole, we believe Ufa and property are now as safe there as in Northern States. There wns a period, undoubtedly, during which a different state of things existed. But with the completion of reconstruction, and the restoration of the States to their position iu the Union, Lave come order, security, aud peace. There are "high-spirited and reso lute people" in Virginin, in South Carolina, in Alabama, in Mississippi; yet who has heard of crimes akin to those which are common in North Carolina in those States? Unless some thing of this sort be found in Virginia or South Carolina as well as in North Carolina, the theory by which tho World attempts to use violation of the laws as an argument against reconstruction falls to the ground. The pretense that the North Carolinians are "forbidden to make their own laws," and are denied control over their own government, is cot less fallacious. Some hundreds, there may be, whom Federal disabilities still ren der ineligible to office. But the local consti tution neither disfranchises any class nor im poses restraints of which any good citizen can complain. Its provisions exemplify tho rare moderation and good sense which actuated those on whom the reconstruction acts conferred preliminary power. We suppose that the objection of the World is to the equality of political rights v.hich the law secures to black and white. It is not that the people are "forbidden to make their own laws," but that one class no longer enjoys power to disfranchise and oppress another class. This consideration is potent in the minds of the old school of Democracy. But it seems out of place in tho columns of the World, which has recently read its party some very wholesome lectures on the folly of perpetuating senseless prejudices and tradi tions. SOME FACTS WHICH BEAR ON THE FUNDING QUESTION. From the X. Y. World. The new Funding bill reported a few days since by Mr. Schenck and awaiting discus sion by Congress, meets with no favor from the press of either party. Besides objections to several of its details, the expectation that our government can borrow money at four per cent, is Bcouted as ridiculous. Our six per cent, boiads are selling in London at about 69; thut is to say, purchasers fire willing to invest in our securities if they can get por cent, interest for their money, but not at a lower rate. In the present state of our credit, a four per cent, bond should sell at .W j. But the Funding bill authorities the Secretary of the Treasury to issue four per cent, bonds to the extent of a thousand millions, aud for bids him to sell any of them below par! This is tantamount to forbidding him to sell the new bonds at all; for bonds cannot be sold without buyers, and capitalists who refuse to purchase six per cent, bonds at par will not take four per cent, bonds at par. Even Secretary Boutwell, who is under a pleasant hallucination respecting our na tional credit, does not believe he can di-sposo of four per cent, bonds. Ho is reported to have said that he will not make any attempt to place a new loan at that rate. The Sonate Funding bill, which was under consideration at an earlier stage of the session, proposed three new loans, at three different rates, the lowest being four per cent.; but nobody ex pected the four per cent, bonds would be taken except by the national banks, and by them only on compulsion to save their circu lation. The idea that such bonds can find voluntary buyers at par is supremely prepos terous. There is a prevailing delusion respecting the improvement of our national credit within the last year or two, a delusion which has given birth to all the wild expectations of funding the public debt at an extremely low rate of interest. It is true that the five twenties have appreciated in the market, but the rise is ascribed to causes whioh have had little or no influence in producing it. Mr. Boutwell has plumed himself on the apprecia tion, as if it were due to his administration of the finances, and especially to his monthly purchases of the publio debt. But he would deserve no credit if this were the real cause. The enormous taxes under which the people groan have yielded a revenue which the ex travagance of the Government has not wholly spent, and no other use could have been made of the surplus than its application to the publio debt. The improvement in the price of our bonds is not owing to that cause at all, nor to any cause connected with the manage ment of the Treasury. On such a subject, a few authentic facts are more convincing than any amount of mere reasoning. The truth is, that nearly all foreign securities have appre ciated in the London stock market, aud in quite a number the advance has been greater than in ours. If Mr. Boutwell be such a prodigy of financial ability as his parasites proclaim him, and his wonder-working policy is so admirablo, our credit ought to have mounted to a sublimer height than that of Turkey, Spain, Brazil, and the Argentine Re public; whereas, in point of fact, their securi ties have advanced as steadily and more rapidly than ours. Within the last year or two, there has grown up a strong tendency to invest in foreign securities, and every gov ernment in tolerable credit has felt thf ad vantage of it. The following table from the last number of the London Economist, though used by that journal for a different purpose, shows that our financial ship has been borne up on a rising tide which has also lifted the securities of many other nations: INCKBASB IN TWELVE MONTHS. .Vay 89 tnrren 18-59. 1870. ptrrent.

It is hardly to bo supposed that each of those other countries is blest with a Bout well, or at any rate, it bas not been discov ered that the prodigal skies have poured down upon the whole world a deluge of able finan ciers. Onr credit is no better, and has un dergone no greater improvement, than that of the slaveholding empire of Brazil, on the southern part of the continent. Indeed, the credit of Brazil is better than ours, and has been advancing at a more rapid pace, in pite of all our foolish boaFt'ng. Her five per cent, bonds are selling at !M 1 , while our six per cents, stand at H'.K Within the last mx months her bonds have advanced nine per cent., while ours have gone up only six per cent. It will have a sobering effect to mea sure onr credit by that of the nations who compete with us in the loan markets of tho world. As none of them can sell a fo ar per cent., or even a five per cent, bond at par, it would be a piece of boastful and ridiculous Rfclf-n6sunipfion for onr Congress to pass an net declaring its foolish opinion that we can borrow money at a rato at which nobody will consent to lend it. THE MARE S NEST ABOUT TnE CUR.VN BOND BRIBERY IN WASHINGTON. From theX. P. IltrahK The sensation story spread abroad that tho Cubans were bribing Congressmen and others by liberal gifts of their bonds to obtain the recognition of our Government has ended in fcruoke. Mr Fitch and olher members of tho House have ventilated and exposed this can ard. It was, as Mr. Fitch intimated, no doubt manufactured by or through Spanish agents for the purpose of creating a prejudice against the Cuban cause just at this particular time. "We approach, iu a few days," he said, "the consideration of the question whether the House will help Spain to crush Cuba or not. It is, perhaps, conjectured by members of the Spanish embassy that if charges of corrup tion on behalf of Cuba can bo circulated with impunity and permitted to pass unchallenged here concerning members, gentlemen on this floor may be afraid to express the kindly sen timents which they may entertain for the peisecuted Cubans, end at the cost of a dinner or n five dollar bill some scavenger who disgraces the reportorial fraternity is induced to sound the preliminary note of slander." This is rather sharp, but no doubt hits the nail on the head. Mr. Fitch, how ever, like many other members, we suppose, will not "swerve from the tttteranco of words of encouragement and cheer to a people who are struggling for freedom," though such slanderous attacks may be mado. There are plenty of lobby schemers in Washington ready to tt.ke money, bonds, or anything else from any side, aud they buttonhole everyone who goes to that city on business connected with the Government. They livo in that way, and mostly upon false pretenses. They endeavor to make it appear always that they are on intimate terms with members of Con gress and high officials of the Government. Sometimes they take pay or promises to pay from both sides. Nothing comes amiss to tLese cormorauts. They often take and cheat at the same time. There is no subject in Vthich tLero is a prospect of money that they do not nibble at as keenly as a hungry fish at a bait. The Alaska purchase, the St. Domingo treaty, Cuba, or anything else, is tested and squeezed in every possible way. These follows have been trying to humbug the Cubans, probably, and taking money from Spaiu at the same time. But they appear to have been foiled, as fur as the Cubans ure concerned. At least it appears evident there bus benn no attempt to bribe members of Congress. And why all this fuss about the Cubuns using what means they have vithiu their power to pro mote the cause they have at neart the inde pendence of their country ? Apart from re ported attempts to bribe members of Con gress or of the Government, which have no foundation, what harm is there in the Cubans using their moaus for such a sacred object? Do not all governments both established and revolutionary governments employ agencies and whutever meaus they can com mand to accomplish their objects ? And if these be not immoral, where is the evil ? There is a great deal of humbug and bun combe about this cry of using Cuban bonds to create a favorable influence. Theso ex ploded slunderous reports against the Cubans will tend to benefit the Cuban cause and to react upon the Spanish agents, who probably manufactured them. SHALL IT BE THE MONOFOLY OF SAVAGES? Front the X. Y. Sun. Sooner than the juico of the crushed straw berries served at the White House to Spotted Tail had dried on the war-painted jaws of that savage, and while yet it mingled with the black and vermilion which menacingly bar the cheeks of Red Cloud, both of these men, who have been known to us mainly as murderers and horse-thieves, demand of the Government fixed ammunition aud breech loading liflts, and imperiously require that tho construction of transcontinental lines of railroad Bhall be stopped. What is the question, what is the bloody issue which General Grant wraps with tobacco smoke, and propitiates with gifts of meer schaum pipes, candy kisses, and sugared ber ries smothned in cream? Senator Stewart, of Nevada, in debute in his place, presented it the other day with tho vigorous terseness characteristic 01 the public utterances of this brave and sensible statesman. "The country bftvicen the Missouri and tho Columbia livers," said ti e Senator, "is not only not t peu to htttlement but is uot accessible to stttlers. It is monopolized by ludiaus, by mountains, by deserts.

The nauseous flavor of these active poisons is perceptihlo to the palate, and a burning sensation in the stomach attests their existence when the noxious draught has gone down.
