A BELLIGERENT PAssEsonit.—John Roney got
into a passenger railway car at Frankford road
and Mulberry street. When the conductor asked
him for his farehe refused to pay. Conductor told
him that he would put him out. This was easier
said than done. Conductor undertook to carry
out his threat, but soongot the worst of the
struggle which ensued. The driver went to the
assistance of the conductor, but he was laid out
in an exceedingly short space of time. Roney
had got on the outside of the cars by this time.
He then offered to "hck" any or all of the pas
sengers. Nobody seemed disposed to accept the
challenge, but a policeman tapped the belligerent
on the shoulder. He at once became very docile.

Roney in $BOO ball to answer the charge of in
citing to riot.

An inquest was also held in the case of the

near South, he pulled down several awning
posts. As he was tugging away at one of the
posts a Knight of the Star hailed him. In reply
to a question as to what he was doing, he saki
"Pulling down that post by order of the spirits."
The policeman thought the spirits had been
working sufficient mischief in Bunn and took
him to the Station-house. The prisoner was
arraigned before Aid. Carpenter last evening and
was committed on the charge of malicious mis
chief.

THEATRES. Etc:
AT TTIE CHEF , TNI:T.—This evening the mag
nificent fairy spectacle The White Fawn will be
premmted in all its original splendor, but with
the addition of some important scenes and
episodes which will add greatly to its beauty.
Among the most attractive of these will be a
water scene which the poetic managers have
entitled "Neptune's Daughters of the Bath." This
will consist of a conglomeration of female loveli
ness disporting in a cascade, the effect of which
will be further heightened by the play of varie
gated lights upon the water. Another novelty
will be the introduction of a "horseback drill." by
a troop of children, and a series of surprising
evolutions by the regular corps of Amazonian
warriors. The White was very successful
.n its old form, bat it will of course prove in
-finitely mole so in its reconstructed condition.
AT THE WALNUT this evening Paul Play will
be repeated. So far from popular interest in
this drama having declined, it seems to be
largely - increasing and the theatre is croWded
every-night- The effort of the management to
present the piece handsomely entitles them to
this success,. which must be considt re.. et , a
triumph over the defects of a drama tie.t it not
as good as we should wish. The company, h ow _
sever, redeem the play by their excellent acting.
and the beautiful scenery also contributes greatly
to the interest of -- the performance. The scene
upon Godsend Island is especially good. It re-
Meta credit alike hpon the Management, and
upon the artist who designed and executed it.
f; AT THE AMERICAN to-night a miscellaneous
perfotrnanc.4 %Till be given, consisting of dancing
by the ballet troupe, and the usual varied and
amusing olio entertainment.
General Grant and Illfexteo.
[Correspondence of the Syracuse JoJrnaLl
WasnmoTorr, Monday, August 81, 1868.-1 . re
vert to this matter because there is an attempt
to provelhat General Grant has been the advo
cate of war between us and France over theMex
lean matters, and also because it establishes con
clusively Grant's claims to statesmanship and to
the possession of a policy where the Executive of
this country has, under the Constitution, a legiti
mate right to its exercise. I refer to foreign
affairs, Inhere it falls naturally to the lot of the
President to initiate measures.
I see the World quotes the letter on Mexico re
cently contained in one of my letters, and , tor
tures a portion of the context into a despatch,
purporting to be written here, but evidently
made up in the New York office, to prove that
Grant tried to engage us in ' hostilities with
France. But Grant did not want war with Franco
or the Imperial usurper, but really prevented
what seemed inevitable. The occupation of
Mexico was part of the rebellion. The Southern
leaders knew Napoleon's game in 1859.
So did Seward. The leading rebels
told their people that the French would
help them. Fear on the part of the
English Government alone prevented this. Grant
. saw all this When Lee had surrendered. He urged
upon the President repeatedly that the United
Suitt s must protest against the intervention in
Mexican affairs. On the other hand ho re
atrained his sentiments. It is on record that
Sherthan and Sheridan both wanted to "pitch
into" the French and Austrians. Sherman
sought to impress on all Southern officers that
be came into contact with the advantage of
such a war to knit the sections together again,
and Grant feared that the emigration to Mexico
of Southern leaders woud create an hostile
element, necessitating the existence of a large
standing army, &c. and he believed that an ac
tive use of the martial prestige we had acquired
would cause Napoleon to vacate and bring about
the downfall of his puppet without a resort to
arms. To this end be strove. It was for this that
he procured, against the exertions of Mr. Seward,
the sending of General Schofield to Europe,
-where he succeeded in perfecting the arrange
ment referred to in the following extract from
the letter of instructions to Minister Camll: -
Oct.O
DEPARTMMT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, 25,
1866.—Sir: You are aware that a friendly and
explicit arrangement exists between this Govern
ment and the. .;Emperor of France to the effect
that he will withdraw his expeditionary military
forces from Mexico in three parts, the first of
which shall leave Mexico in November next, and
the third in November, 1867, and that upon the
evacuation being thus completed, the French
Government will immediately come upon the
ground of non-intervention in regard to
Mexico which is held by the United States.
Doubts have been entertained and expressed in
some quarters upon the question whether the
French Government will faithfully execute this
agreement. No such doubts have been enter
tained by the President, who has had repeated
and even recent assurances that the complete
evacuation of Mexico by the French will be con
summated at the periods mentioned, or earlier,
if compatible with climatical, military and other
conditions. What the Government of the
United States really desires with regard to the
future of Mexico is not the conquest of Mexico,
or any part of it, or the aggrandizement of the
United States by purchases of land or domin
ion, but on the other hand, they desire to see the
people of Mexico relieved from all foreign mili
tary intervention, to the end that they may re
sume the conduct of their own affairs under the
existing republican Government, or such other
frame of Government as, being left in the enjoy
ment of perfect liberty, they shall determine to
adopt in the exercise of their own free will, by
their own act,without dictation from any foreign
country, and of course without dictation from
the United States."
Grant represents the honest American idea.
The Monroe doctrine sustained; honest aid from
a great Republic to a weak one, but no attempt
to take advantage of' its weakness.' From various
sources, papers prepared by Grant, etc.,
I know
that his method of annexation will be by attrac
tion rather than purchase—the moral force of
better laws and greater prosperity.
—A misogynist says that many husbands tare
much opposed to the patent coffin that prevents
persons from being burled alive.

7'he Chinese Government having (through the lion.

'I hese ports have a loreign commerce of ............. and
an enormous domestic trade, besides which we have the
immense internal commerce of the Empire, radiating
from these points, through its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this company Propose erecting
land lines and establishing a speedy and trustworthy
means of communication, which most command there,
as everywhere else, the communications of the govern.
ment, of business, and of social life, especially in China.
She has no postal system, and her otly means paw of
oo'mmunicating information is by courier on land, and by
atcamon on water.
The 'Western World knows that China is a very large
country, in the main densely peopled; but few yet rea
lize that she contains more than a third of the hrman
race. The latest returns made to her central authorities
for taxing purposes, by the local magistrates, make her
population Four Hundred and Fourteen Milliorui, and
this is more likely to be under than over the actual ag.

sive as that of Europe. China is a land
of teachers and traders; and the latter are 'exceedingly
quick to avail themselves of every proffered facility for
procuring early information. It is observed in Califor
nia that the Chinese make groat use of the telegraph.
though it there transmits messages in English alone.
day, great numbers of fleet steamers are owned by Chi.
nese merchants, and used by them exclusively for the
transmission of early intelligence. If the televaph we
propose, connecting all their great seaports, were now in
existence, it is believed that its business would pay its
cost within the first two years of its successful operation.
and would steadily increase thereafter.
No enterpiee commends Melt as in a greater degree
remunerative to capitalists and to our whole people. It
is of a vast national importance commercially, politically
and even gelicallY.
Shares of this company, to a Uxhited number, may be
obtained at $5O each. $lO payable down, $l5 on the Istof

This Company, National in its character,offers,
by reason of its Large Capital, Low Rates of Pre
mium and New Tables, the most desirable means
of insuring life yet presented to the public.
The rates of premium, being largely reduced,
are made as favorable to the Insurers as those of
the beat Mutual Companies, and avoid all the
complications and uncertainties of Notes,-Divi
deeds and the misunderstandings which the latter
are apt to C 31220 the Policy-Solders.
Several new and attractive tables are now pre
sented, which need only to be understood to
prove acceptable to the public, such as the IN
COME-PRODUCING POLICY and RETURN
PREMIUM POLICY. In the former, the policy
holder not only secures a life insurance, payable
at death, but will receive, if living, after a period
of a few years, an annuat income equal to ten per
cent. (10 per cent.) of thepar of hie poltry. In the
latter, the Company agrees to return to the ae-.
tared the total amount of money he has paid in, in
addition to the amount of his policy.
The attention of persons contemplating insur
ing their lives or increasing the amount of insur
ance they already haVe,is called to the special ad
vantages offered by the National Life Insurance
Company.
