Tilt' WAR CLOUD.
The cable news from Europe this afternoon
is of a startling character. If the reports are
correct; France has got her blood up, and is
really Keparing fora war with Prussia and the
North German Confederation ,- The reply of
Prussia, according_ to .the_despateb; to the de-
mand made upon her by France, is of the
most curt character. Wing William is evidently
resolved not to be bullied, and if France is
resolved. on revenging both Waterloo , and
Sadowsr at the same time, he. is apparently
ready to let her come and try it. The , war, if
it eplaes, will be a.tremendous one, surpassing
any, iii - tre — Ettropeatrwars - of - recent - time . .
-- There is a-report- that AuStria has entered into
an alliance, being anxious for her own revenge
of Sadowa. This will add to the magnitude
of the conflict, for the three powers can each
put into the field a half _million of .men in. a
_ .
_short_time,
CUANCEI4 /IN FRANCE.
The possibility of a war between France and
Prussia is looked upon with great interest by
an perSas "Bait there are certain individuals
and their adherents that take a special personal
interest in it. These are : first, the Count of
Chambord, representative of the elder Bourbon
line and legi.tirriate,succiassoi_toKing Charleis
the Tenth ; second, the Count of Paris, repre
_ sentative of the Orleans line and legitimate
successor_ to King Zonis Philippe.. The peti
tion of the Count of Paris,hl which his brother
and several of their uncles—sons of Louis
Pliillppe, 7 joinediasking the Legislative. Body
to repeal the adt of banishment against the - in
and the rest of the - Orleans - family, - has-brought
them once more prominently before the Frencli
people. This petition was allowed to be pub
- fished in- -the Faris papers,-and . althofigh the
-•
- Legislative B — odf - did - not - erant itTa - reading:
Frenchmen have real it, and . many that have
-come to Manbood since 1848 have-been induced
by it to take afresh reading of the chapter of
history that turned the Orleans family out of
France and made Louis Napoleon Emperor.
Louis Napoleon's difficulty with Prussia.—
which means the North German Confederation
--may be• the Opportbuity of either one of the
several parties that are hoping for supremacy
in France.- -These_parties_are_the Bourbonists,
rail _tbs_Count of_ Chambord_" King jlenry_
the Fifth ;" the Orleaniste, who consider the
Count of Paris as their chief, and the Repub
licans, who, if they were really what they claim
to be, are bound to no .one man, but have a
grand principle to act under, which, we fear, is
not fully comprehended by French Republicans.
If the Emperor, who is old, ,gouty, rheumatic
and nervous, is not able to control the storm,
that the choice of a German King for Spain has
stirred up in France, the opportunity will arise
for Bourbon, Orleans nr Republican to super
sede Napoleonism. If the Emperor were forty
years old, as he was in the Revolution that he
turned to his own personal advantage, instead
of sixty-two, be might benxpected to
" Ride in the whirlwind and direct thestorm."
But twenty-two added years, with numerous
physical infirmities, and with parties opposed
to him that have gained 'strength from his
political Mistakes as well as from his , phytil6al•
ailments, make him less capable as a leader
than be was in 1848 or 1851, and . diminish the
earnest confidence of hissupporters. A man
of sixty-two is not a rising man, and it is the
rising men that attract adherents in all govern
ments, *and . especially in such a thoroaghly
personal government as that of the Empire of
France has been.
So the contingency that the Emperor and
his ministers have allowed to arise in France
in the choice of a Prussian for the Spanish
throne, at a time when the Emperor, if not the
Empire, is in decadence, may offer chances to
the older and the younger Bourbon lines, and
also to the Republicans. If the latter were
• • proper 1Y nr"anind and had a wise, ' thiselfi 1
bead to guide them, we should hope something
from the emergency. - But the prominent Re
publicans of France are either demagogues or
vain theorists, and whatever May dome from
'the present emergency, or from the inevitable
and not remote fall or death of Louis Napoleon,
we have little hope of seeing France a lie :
raffle. -
A day or two ago some of the New 'York
papers repeated 7n an authoritative manner the
report that Secretary Fish would immediately
withdraw from the_ Cabinet for the purpose of
superceding Mr. Motley as Minister to Eng
land. We did not believe this story at the
time of its publication, for it is well known
that Mr. Fish is extremely anxious to retire
altogether from public life, and that President
Grant's:anxiety to retain him in the State De
partment alone prevents the realization of his
wiab. Gar well-informed Washington corres
pondent justifies our doubts, for he asserts that
Mr. Flab will remain , in the Cabinet as long as
General 'Giant desires his presence and his
health will t permit, .11e will not accept the

TUE COMING FRENCIIIL&N.
'The old fogies of England - have. always won
dered that - the United States- Government
should so often send, as its representatives
through-their
.abroad, men- who-bad not gone - h
.routine.of:drilkandlraining--in the-school - of
diplomacy, working their way up from attach 6
of a minor legation to be chief of a great one.
Now they profess wonder that the: F-reneb
government-should.send nutrainedmahaal
Minister to Washington,. and, in .a state.of
semi-bewilderment, - the-.Paiiiia// Gazette says: :
-" M. Prevost-Paradcilis the son of a naval
engineer, who married a talented societ«ire de
la comedic Framaise. cwas brought up at
the College Boutbon :and at the Ecole Nor
male. At the early-age of twenty-two he won
the prize of the French Academy for his
Eloge de Bernarclin•deßaint-Pierre,' and was
a few years later, appointed professor of
French literature at the Fecal* d'Aix, which
chair he left to join the Debits in 1856, where
be has since remained. Thus the whole of
his career has been firrfity literary, and, - for
-allthat-isyetknownihe•can-be--eousidered -to -
possess no greater qualification . for a diplo
matic post than any ether talented journalist.
M. Prevost-Paradol, it is true, has a perfect
knowledge of the English language, and has
thoroughly studied English institutions ; but
the latter have nothing to do with America
while M. Prevost-Paradol's literature may not
altogether commend itself to our American
cousins. It was the pretentious , elegance of
the young ambassador's literary style and
speech which brought him into the Academy
in 1865 while his tine sarcasms and political
allusions in the ()carrier du Dimanche were the
source of his popularity sonic ten years ago.
Judged on its own merits, however, the ap
pointment of M. Paradol must be considered
as showing either that the French Emperor
has very few persons at his disposal for such
posts, of that he has resolved to break the
routine tradition of diplomacy, and to choose
his representatives -without reference-to- their
rank or titles."
The writer of the passage we have quoted
leaves it to, be supposed that M. Prevost
Paradol has not studied American institutions.
Those who observed his writings during the
war in this country know that be had studied
and understood them much better than most
of the writers for the English press, and it is
this knowledge that makes his appointment so
popular in this country and among the loyal
and enlightened Americans in Paris. It is not
right to prejudge him, and to anticipate for him
a brilliant career as a diplomatist. But it is right
to welcome him as the first man of real
ability that the French Empire has
sent to Washington and as a real friend of the
United States, who showed his friendship at a
time when it was not popular to do so. And,
after all, it is not the trained diplomatists that ,
always make the most faithful or the most suc
cessful anibassadors. The United States hive
never had any trained diplomatists, and yet,
with some lamentable exceptions like Reverdy
Johnson, our Ministers abroad have generally
done themselves and their country credit.
They have certainly been quite equal, on the
average, to the average men--that have been
, sent to represent the Eurcipean governments at
Washington.
PAID FIRE DEPARTMENT
A Committee.of the Wilmington City. Coun
cil have unanimously. -agreed on a report in
favor of abolishing the Volunteer Fire Depart
ment and organizing a.Paid one. The report
is full of sound argument, and it cites many
'facts, derived from the experience of other
cities, gOing to show the advantages of the paid
system. The following extract referring to
Camden will interest our readers :
"Camden, New Jersey,under the old system
had 6 companies,—to-day, with a paid fire
department, she has 2 companies. Under the
volunteer system she had, the year previous
to the organization of the paid department—
False alarms

"Your committee, in order to get full infor
mation before reporting, visited Camden, and
wore agreeably impressed at the order, neat
ness and comfort of themw. We were also
informed that the men wh clung st adily to
the volunteer system, and who did their ut
most to defeat the ordinance fora paid fire de
partment,
,are to-day , its staunchest supporters,
nor would they under any consideration re
turn to the volunteer system."

Mr: Dana, of the New- - 1 4- orli Sun r seizes the
opportunity allbrded by publication of the re
po•t of the resignation of Secretary-Fish to
demand an investigation of his official conduct,
and to.rePeat the absurd story that - Mr.-Fish's
policy upon the Cuban question was a direct
consequence of the employment of his son-in
law as the attorney .of the Spanish Govern-
Meat.. It is not .it all likely that an appeal
from Mr. Dana will induce Congress to take
action in any direction against the administra
tion. ,It :is well understdod, by everybody that
the.pitiable spectacle offered by that gentle
anan's unseemly outbursts of rage; - is the direct
,consequence of the President's failure to ap
:poitit him to a •fat •oftice for whichliss longed.
But it - `is especiallk - absurd -- to- suppose -that
charges , of corruption made by such - a man
against.a person of Secretary Fish's character
can influence public _opinion against that
officfaL AnylWectiaation ------ of — such -- a — kind -:
made by Mr. Dana must be received with ridi
cule and contempt. The.charge that Mr. Fish
has deliberately prostituted his high office and
violated his own honest convictions merely to
empty a few dollars into the pocket of a rela
tive, :could only 'come from a man who is him
self capable of such baseness. We have better
• reason for - supposing that the Saa's-defence-of
the Cuban cause is inspired by promise or pay
ment _.of
_some of ,those : cuban_bonds which
.have_been_Oistributcd_:lavishly„than we have
for receivinglDana's theory about the Secre
tary. The latter is a very wealthy man,,with
out political ambition, but with a pure charac
ter and a record that has no spot or
stain upon it; the former is a disappointed,
enbittered politician, who abuses' his position
as a public journalist to gratify his private
hatreds. '
The reports that were circulated a week or
two ago to the effect that the negro cadet .at
West Point was treated most cruelly by his
fellows, were denied 'at the time; but we have
confirmation of them in the letter published by
us yesterday, in which the cadet details the
persecutions to will& he is subjected, and de
clares that he will be driven to resignation if
they continue. It is easy to believe that the
white lads in the Academy can indulge in
countless petty acts of cruelty towards this ne
gro, which cannot be punished. But it is ap
parent; from this story that some of the out
rages committed were of a character which
called-for the prompt interference of the
officers of the school. it is a disgrace . -
fill fact that these offences hitherto
have been suffered to pass unnoticed,
and the., inevitable conclusion is, either that
the officers sympathize with the criminals or that
they are incapable of maintaining proper dis
cipline. In either case they are unfit to oc
cupy their positions. The • President ought to
interfere in this matter, arid have it-understoOd
that as this negro' 'bOy was appointed by the
same authority as his Companions, he has as'
good:a right to :. be there,and enjoy the advan.
Cages of the institution as any of the cadets ;
and then measures should be taken to protect.
him from persecution and Insult. It will be
scandalous if be is driven from the • Academy
by the brutality of the other cadets.
It may fairly be urged against the proposed
appropriation by Congress of fifty thousand
dollars for the purpose of fitting out ati Arctic
expedition, at a time when the country is bur
dened with oppressive taxes which Congress
men assert cannot be removed with safety, that
it is a shameful waste of the public money. If
there was any reason for supposing that 'Such
an expedition could reach the pole, or that
anything could be gained for science, nobody
would object to a much larger outlay. But we
have the best reason for- believing that we
know as much now of those ice-bound regions
and their phenomena as we ever will know;
that the pole can never be reached, and that
the discovery of a northwest passage, if it
should be made, would be attended by no
Profitable results. If this expedition is fitted
out, it will either end . diSti:strOuily, as Others
have done, or it will afford profitless amuse
ment to those:persons who participate in it.

The odious Income Tax.
lifipeefal Deepatch to the Phfla. Evening Bulletin.)
W.A.9IIINGTON, July B.—Those opposed to
the continuance of the income tax have
given up all hope of being able to defeat and
prevent its incorporation in the Internal Tax
bill, now that the House conferees have
agreed to accept the Senate amendment, viz.:
The continuance of the tax for three years at
two and one-half per cent., and two thousand
dollars exemption.
Itwas not believed that the -House—con
ferees would agree to this, and it was op this
hope that those opposed to the odious measure
based theirreliance of defeating the proposi
tion when it came back into the Senate.
It is pretty generally believed that the inCome
section will not remain on . the statute book
longer than the assembling of the next new
Congress, the feeling against its continu
ance being so general throughout the country
that the Forty-second Congress will be forced
to repeal the law.

cause a lite broke out in the Stockton House,

a short time the building was in ashes. The

Before the lire had time to spread further,

Philadelphia Money Market.
FRIDAY, daily 1870.-111oney continues active and
easy in thissuarket, the principal outflow of currency
being connected with the usual summer holidays.
Both on call and time tonna the supply of money is Very
abundant and easy at 4 per cent. for the former and at
6a7 per cent. for the latter, the exact figure depending
much upon the grade of paper offered and the time it
has to run. Three and four months' acceptances are
quite stiff to-day at 7 per cent.
The gold market is again unsettled, with a strong up
ward tendency, owing partly to the uncertain effect of
the new currency bill on the premium, and partly from
warlike rumors front Europe. The sales opened at 111.3 i,
advanced to 112.34 , and closed at noon at 111—an advance
since last night of 34.
Government Bonds were influenced by the Hanle canaes,
but s ith opposite results, our quotations to-day show
ing a. general falling off in the geld bearing_bonde -of

j Front the New York Herald of to-day
Tilt RSDASI, July 7.—Wall street has had to-day two im•
portant - topics of- .cliscussion---the_ threntene.t.war in
Enrope - auct the final-passage of the cart mcy mill. Both
....niatters.hk.etruporfant influences in affecting the course
of prices in governments,4tocks and — gOtil, The earlDrizt
, nmiement was in the Gold Room, where the opening
vales took place at 112%; under the newspaper reports this
morning of the critical situation of France and Prussia
regarding the queition of the succession to the Spanish
throne. As the forenoon advanced the foreign bankers
were free sellers, and broke the price to 111,4. As sus
pected at the time; and was afterwards demonstrated,
they had been in the receipt of early cable telegrams
from Europe, reporting a much better feeling at the
Paris Bourse, where reface , advanced on the anticipa
tion that diplomat would settle the cieestiong in dispute
without resort to the sword.
The gold market was very feverish, however, and gave
way obstinately , the general impression existing that
affairs could not have assume l so pacific a character un
so short notice: Moreover, the latest report from the
Bureau of Statistics at. Washington,giving the approxi
mate results of our foreign trade for the fiscal year end
. lug June Se, 1870, was not of a character to discourage
the holders of gold and hence the bullish feeling was
not easily dissipated.. The bears, however, pointed to
the comparatively trfling advance which gold had made
en eo important Rewires that of a probable war between
the great European Powers t and instanced
it as a proof of the inherent weakness
of the market. As to the effect of such a war opinion
_is_ greatly _ divided,_eonle_ maintaining_ that it,
would lead ton very sharp gold, for - Mie
reason, to the sending home of our five-twenties.
Others, hoWever, are sanguine that in such an emer
gency our five-twenties would eventually improve in
the foreign market, whatever their first tendency, as
shows,: in their decline in London to-day to Pirg against
pi a few days since might be, and that the heavy ship
ments of_ produce and provisions to the warring nations
would keep gold from advancing here. There is no
doubt that in the event of anch a war America would
largely profit by her shipments of produce and provi
sions, prices fcr which would of course advance 50 or
100 per cent. in the foreign markets. Finally the pas
sage of' the- Currency bill in its latest form was inter
preted as contraction, and gold declined to 111.1, at
Whiell it citified.
The Independence of each other of the gold and stock
markets was again curiously manifested to-day. In the
forenoon, when mold was - highest, there was a semi
panic in the stock market, and prices sharply declined.
Later in the day gold declined, when stocks advanced.
On the first flash of the news that the Currency bill
bad finally passed both went down together, but in the
latest dealings they again parted company, geld c
uing to go down as stocks rose again 'Plmearly . . decline
in stocks, was due to the announcement of ,an in election
against the Lake Shore and New York Central Railways.
When—later—it was discovered that the injunction
was but partiat, and of very little importance, stocks
bounded up quite sharply and became stetidy and strong.
continuing so at the last board. and until the passage of
the Currency bill was positively announced, when the
market became heavy, and prices fell, off a quarter per
- cent: 'Here a feeling seemed to take possession of the
streettliat Congress had now done its worst, : and. that
as thenotise conference committee citithe'Fneding bill
were strongly opposed to the original Senate bill
there was nothing to be feared from that measure.
The consequence was a strong" reaction, and' in the
thin market on the street, after the closing of the
Long Boom,- prices advanced to the beet •of the day.
The views of Wall street concerning the Currency
blll in Its form as passed are very conflicting. The
ineesurellitself is highly calculated to excite very diverse
opinions. As far as we are in possession cf its details.
as it goes to the President for his signature, it Weals that
no specific provision is made for the manner in which
the forty-five millions of three pet cents can be cancel
led. In the absence of any direct information on this
point, we are left to inter that the Secretary of this
Tieasury must use his currency balance, and if neces
sary increase his sales of gold, to procure the requisite
currency In order to retire the certificates., In
this view of the Matter the bill proposes
violent contraction, for the three per cents conn.t as rei
ssue in the banks to the extent of three-fifths of their
amount. Bocce the first effect is a contraction of 27
millions. 111 the next place, as the now issue of i%
ofmational bank currency will require a reserve of
18 to 25 per cent. r the greenback circulation will be di
minisheo from eight to thirteen milllone,making a total
contraction of thirty-five to forty millions, to which
should be added the disturbance of the money market
by the redistribution of twenty-five millions of the bank
ing capital of the Eastern and Middle States.
The decline in five-twenties abroad and the decline in
gold here had rendered the government market heavy in
dealings before tho receipt of the
,pows concerning the
Currency bill. On the publidatiou of the latter there
was a further decline for the reason that the street
sprang to the conclusion that the Secretary of the Trea
sury: in being compelled to 'use till his currency to re
tirstbo three per cents , would bounder the necessity
of discontinuing his purchases of bonds beyond the
amount requisite to keep in force the operation
of the sinking fund law. On the alter hand it was
argued land it 'wee the" second thought of the street
which helped the stock market at the close, as just nat.
ratedl that the Organization of new banks under the law
nejcist enacted,would:he widow And, gradual'process,an ,
d
hence the operation of the law would have only a remote
effect, while, as fast as the three per cents, were retired,
• the projectors of the new banks would have to Come to
New York nod buy bonds, thus supplying motley to the
greet as fast as drawn out by the Secretary of the Trea
sury. As-to the, ultimate effect on government bonds it
was evident faccritiling to these theorists) that the now
banks would require *1.67.000,000 to deposit against their
05400,00 U of currency, and that they would thus Sap ply
a Market for governments should the Secretary be coin
polled to cease his purchases. Despite therm argemelite
'the government list did not react, us did the stook' mar
ket, and prices closed steady at.the lower :ramie of quo
ta Dm
o. The government ought a million of bonds to

Second Session.
(SENATE—Continued from Third Rdition.)
The bill was further discussed.
Mr. Howard said he . had been mistaken in
referring to the - name of McCreery, and took
occasion to say that the party he had referred
tO was Mcclary, who_was_ Charged-in -the
President's — proclannitiMi — With connection
with the assassination conspiracy. He made
this explanation not to do injustice to the
Senator from Kentucky.
Considerable dismission was indulged in
upon the _name of Gen. Oustavus _W. Smith,
who, it was stated, had been educated at West
Point,and, on the breaking out of the war,
was Street Commissioner in - the city of New
York, and bad left that city to participate in
the rebellion.
fir. Stewart_moved_to_strika out the_ name
of Smith and twenty others who had not been
considered favorable by the Committee.
Mr. Howard asked if the name of Basil
Duke would be ineluded in the list stricken
out. -
Mr. 31cCreery hoped not.
Mr. Cameron said he would never vote to
removadisabilities from such a;- man- as-Gus
tavus-Smith.
-Mr:--Stewart-moditied his motion-so as to
strike out only tbe name of Smith.
- On motion of Mr. Morton the name of Basil
Duke was also stricken out.
Mr. Robertson moved to substitute his bill,
containing between five and six thousand
names.
Mr. Conkling appealed in behalf of Mr. tic"
Creery that his bill might be. passed without
encumbering it with such a load.
Mr. Robertson said he would withdraw his
motion if Mr. Conkling would consent to add
the name of John C. Breckinridge to Mr. Mc-
Creery's bill.
Mr. Morton moved to strike out the names
ofJohn Couch and A. J. Ciss. Agreed to.
After further debate Mr. Robertson with
drew his amendment.
Mr. Drake moved an amendment providing
that nothing in the act shall operate to relieve
the disabilities from any person who has held
office in defiance of-the-Fourteenth amend
ment to the Constitution.
The amendment was discussed.
HOUSE.-Mr. Paine, from the Committee
on Elections, called up the report in the con
tested election case of Cameron vs. Roots,
First District of Arkansas, a,ndmoved that the
whole matter be laid on the table, Agreed to.
On motion of Mr. Washhurne (Wis.), the
Naval Appropriation bill with the Senate
amendments was taken from the Speaker's
table and ordered to be printed,. and referred
to the Committee on Appropriations.
Mr. Arnell called up the bill to remove the
political disabilities of A. O. P. .Nicholson, of
Tennessee, and moved to suspend the rules
and pass it. Lost-55 yeas to 43 nays, two
thirds not voting aye.
Mr. Dawes, from the Committee of Con
ference on the Senate amendments to the
Postoftice Appropriation bill, made a report,
which was agreed to.
Mr. Asper, from the Conference Com
mittee on the bill to amend the act of July 26,
18ti6, relative to certain officers of the army,
submitted a report, which was agreed to.
Mr. Sawyer, from:the Committee on Com
erae, called up - the inßiver and Harbor Ap
propriation bill, with Senate amendments,
and moved' concurrence therein.
Mr. Benjamin opposed the motion, because
the House did not know what the amend
ments were.
Mr. Sawyer explained the nature of the
Senate amendments and stated they increased
the appropriations above the House bill some
thing over 8300,000.
Mr. Dawes thought the bill more open - to
criticism than before it left the House. Instead
of concentrating the expenditures at important
points the Senate had increased the outlays,
and frittered them all over the country, pro
bably at the instance of members who wished
to be recognized in the bill, and thereby com
mend themselves to their constituents.
fle hoped the amendments would be non
concurred in and a new Conference ordered.
. On the demand of Mr. Benjamin and others
a separate vote was taken on each amendment,
and they were all concurred in.
A motion to reconsider the vote by which
the souse yesterday appropriated $.5,000 to
Switzler, to pay his expenses for .poutesting
the seat from the Ninth District of Missouri,
was laid on the table-93 yeas to 81, nays.
