THE 'THREATENED WAR.
It scarcely-possi ble-that_ a mar_ca n_ _ego r_,
between France and Prussia without involv
ing other nations of Europe. There is, in
deed, a probability that all the great Conti
nental Powers will become involved in it.- -As
alfeady stated, Austria wants her revenge for
Sadowa as much as France, and more, too,
and the report of . an alliance between them is
plausible. Thus the armies that fought against
one another at Magenta and Solferino may
soon be fighting side by side against the
Prussians. Italy can scarcely keep out of the
conflict. But Italy was the ally of France in
1559, and of Prussia in IStIG, in each case
against Austria, and it is difficult to say in
whit • wee ion ex sympa
time. . As she has enough to do at home, and
is encumbered with a heavy debt, it will be
wise for her to keep out of the fight altogether,
if that be possible. If Russia goes into it, she
will naturally be the ally of-Prussia, and she
will be able to give a'great deal of 'trouble to
-Atistria, and to Turkey. For her anabition is
still fixed upon Constantinople, and a war in
Western Europe will give her an opportunity
to inake.a dash in that direction, which would
.naturally make _Turkey an ally of-France-
The country that will first suffer, and most
severely, will be Spain. For the cause of the
war is the Spanish intriguer, Prim, who picked
out a Prussian for the Spanish throne, and his
choice has been confirmed by the Cabinet of
Madrid. A French Corps d'Airmee proba
bly be sent to the Pyrenees at once, ready to
cross tire frontier the moment it may be
deenind expedient. The blockade of Spanish
ports by the French navy may also be expected
promptly. There is a chance that another
near neighbor of France—the little Kingdom
of Belgium—may be drawn into the conflict;
for King Leopold's brother, the - Count of
Flanders, is married to a sister of Prince
Leopold of Hohenzollern, and she -is said to
have urged him to accept the offer of the
Spanish - crown. - As the Prince's wife is a
sister of the King of Portugal, that little King
dom may - be made the victim of a French
army and fleet, after they have done with
Spain.
The armies that may be brought into the
field;incase of such a war as that, we have
contemplating, are, enormous. France alone
_ conld putinto-Ative-service over-a million-of
pen in a very little wbile for she has now
t-00,000 men, including the reserve, and in ad
dition has half a million enrolled in the
National Guard, most of which could be made
available. The army of North . Germany, on a
peace-footing, consists of about 350,000 men;
on a war-footing it is about 1,000,000. Austria
and Russia could each bring out a million, and
Italy, Spain and Belgium could together muster
a half million. So that we may soon see be
tween four and five millions of men engaged in
active war. All this, too, because Spain wants
a King And has been foolish enough to send to
Germany for one. The mere idea of a war for
such a cause makes Americans more and more
disgusted with the European kingly system
and better satisfied with the Republican
system—the system of "government of the
people, by the people and for the people."
lITIRDERS WITH LATIN.
In New York, within the past two or three,
weeks, several persons have been poisoned
through the ignorance or carelessness of drug
gists' clerks in compounding prescriptions, and
public sentiment is pretty strongly in favor of
some reform which will make the community
less liable to accidents from such mistakes. The
frequency of these cases is due to two causes;
-to the common practice of placing ignorant
and stupid boys in drug stores, because they
can be procured for almost nothing; and to the
custom of writing prescriptions in abbieviated
Latin. For the former evil a partial excuse
may be devised ; but the latter cannot be de
fended upon any reasonahle grounds. lt has
the, single merit of antiquity; but Pike
other ' ancient usages, particularly
in medicine, it has no founds.
tion in common. sense. Popular intelligence
has advanced so far that every Trace of the
ancient custom of hiding scientific things be
neath the verb age of a dead language ought to
be done away , with. A patient has a better
right than any other person to know what is
going into his stomach ; and he ought to have
the privilege of inspecting the physician's pre
scription to ascertain for himself, as far as he
can, that no mistake has been Made in it. The
druggist could compound it with as much care ,
and assuredly with equal certainty of correctness,
if it were written out plainly in gocid English;
while youths who are not thoroughly skilled in
translating mutilated Latin would be sure to
make fewer mis:itkes. The man who would
propose that persons shoul I write for their
groceries in Greek, or obtain their boots with
notes written in loatin, would be considered a
hopelessidiot who deserved pity. But there is
no better reason why aiead, language should
be considered necessary-fee-- the litheeha.se of- a
dose of calomel or a bottle of paregorie ths:n .
foto pound of sugar or a pair of gaiters. If no
harm' could - possibly -come--from- the -present
practice, it might be permitted to remain as an
innocent form of scientific absurdity; but as
human lives are endangered by it, the sooner
"(.4., is discontinued the better. Nothing state l

costinissioN44.l, REsiont4.
In the course of a discu,ssion in the House of
Representatives yesterday upon the abuses and .
thiworthlessness of the 'Congressional Globe,'
the New York Associated Press ree,eived , some
pretty, hard and richly deserved blows. It was
proposed to abolish the Globe ' and to depend
for reports of tbePrOceedings of Congress upon
the. abstracts furnished to the newspapers by
the reporters. In his remarks advocating the
adoption of this plan Mr. Brooks of New York,
admitted that the "reports of the Associated
Press have seen so shortened lately as to be
imperfect and unsatisfacte,ry.". Mr. rooks is
competent Authority upon this subject, for;he is
one 'of the partners in the Associated Press
monoPoly, and he is not at all likely to - Criticize
its impeifections too severely, Mr. Woodward
oppesed the proposition and declared that " the
daily reports of the Congressional proceedings
in the New:York papers were a caricaty.re and
libel. His own speeches had been so mangled
and misrepresented in the Associated Press re
ports, that he bad asked the reporters to ex-
Chide his name altogether hereafter."
The yery best evidence of . the truth of these
statements is afforded by the fact that the re-
oi•t of this debaie, furnished by the Associated
Press to this morning's pipers, omits the
charges made agninst the monopoly, only hint:-
ing pt , the character of Mr. Woodward's re
marks,-and attempting to neutralize- them with
a stupid explanatory paragraph. The Ameri
can Press AssOciation supplied us yesterday
with an exhaustive 'abstract' of this discussion,
and otthe entire proceeding of Congress_ dur-
ing the morning session. We, also, can bear
testimony to the truth of Mr. Woodward's
assertion's, for it
.was long a matter for com
plaint, while we bought news of the Associated
PressFthat-the--Congressional—reports—were
short, bungling, unsatisfactory and often en
tirely incomprehensible, so that we were com
pelled to depend for correct information upon
our special correspondents. But the Associated
Press !epode' s,fri A Congress are guilty of greater
sids thantupltlity. - - Their reports are- con
stantly twisted so that they will serve the in
terests of the nee traders ; aud, in pursuance
of the systematic policy of the New York mo
nopolists, they are constructed in such a fashion
that Philadelphia„aud Pennsylvania are ignored
when it is possible to do so without absolute
falsification. 'We believe the -copgressional
Globe to be a nuisance in its present shape,
but-we-protest against any scheine whickpro,
videsfor its abolition and dependence upon the
ridiculous incompetency and prejudice of the
New York monopoly.
- It has been a favorite argument of the ene -
mies of the negroes that if they were exalted
to citizensbipi - and placed upon--juries, their
clannishness Cana Sympathy - for members of
their own race would defeat the ends of jus
tice in cases where the accused persons were
black men. A remarkable proof of the injus
tice colthese assertions has just been offered iu.
South Carolina. A negro was tried in _Bea,u--
fort for the - murder of 2, white man who had
been a rebel soldier. - The jiry was composed
entirely. of negroes drawn indiscriminately
from the colored population. After a long
trial the Judge charged the jury that the facts
proved the guilt of the accused, and without
hesitation a verdict in--accordance - with the
charge was brought in. Even the rebel. jour
nals,of the State. zre,,forced in. the
face of this fact, that justice is not likely to suf
fer greatly at the hainis of tliese citizens. If
the accused bad been a Southern rebel, the
victim a northern white man, and the jurors
white Southerners, it is likely that the verdict
would not have been so nicely in accordance
with the requirements of justice.
One of the most remarkable of recent elope
ment cases is that of a certain quack doctor
who ran away from a neighboring city with
six infatuated damsels in his train, all bent
upon marrying him. Honester men will detest
the villainy of this medical enslaver, but it is
Impossible that they shOuld3ivoid envying him
the possession Of such remarkable poWers of
fascination. W-hat-disposition the --doctor will
make of these forlorn beings we cannot im
agine. That less ingenious rascal, Captain
Macheath, in the company of only two of the
sex, was bewildered, and felt sure' that happi
ness could be secured only when one or the
other of the charmers was away. But in that
time Utah was a wild, and Mormonism had
not been revealed. • The doctor will probably
find refuge in the city of the Saints, and ac
complish the work of consolidation with the
adoring half dozen under the benign guidance
of the experienced Brigham. If the doctor ex
ercises his persuasive powers in Utah as be di l
in the States, he will soon be the most exten
sively married man in the territory.
The new Attorney-General of the :United
States, Hon. Amos T. Akerman, has been
qualified . and, taken , seat as a member of
l'resident Grant's Cabinet. As a matter of in
terest, we copy from a Georgia paper part of a
long letter written by him more than a year
ago, to another citizen of Georgia, who had re
quested a statement of his opinions on various
political questions. It will be seen that he
writes moderately and, intelligently, and that
he has labored hard to bring the people of
Georgia to compliance with the action Of. Con
gress for reconstruction. In the portion of the
letter we lrtve omitted he is Very. sevore upou
the Democrats who have resisted Congress,
and especially upon:those 4'heo have used vio
lence towards the Republicans and the colored
people. We have no doubt that Mr. Akermau
will make an efficient and useful cabinet officer.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has
wisely decided that its Judges shall heregfter
not " exercise the jurisdiction conferred by the
act of Congress upon the subject of naturali
zation." In other Words, no new naturaliza

none of the scandals of 1868, when thousands
of foreigners were naturalized by the Prothon
otary of the Supreme_Court, and many upon
blank papers signed with his name and sealed
with the seal of the Court, both said to be
forged. It is possible that Congress will pass
a law for a uniform system of naturaliAation,
exiferring the - authority to the United States
Courts. ln.that case the decision of our Su
preme Court ‘ will be useless. We are, never
theless, glad the decision has been made.

of New York look decidedly..better to-day
His ft:lends are still here iu force, and are
working earnestly to bring about a favorable
result, and are very sanguine'of being able to ,
do so. ..There-was.sorne little excitement this
morning over a rumor, which was quite cur
rent that the President had yielded to the
Fenton faction and consented to withdraw
Murphy's name, but inquiry at the , White
House established the falsity of the report and
enabled Murphy's baekers to breathe free
again: - There Was Otte a delegation of NeW
York politicians to see the President regard
ing the new appointments as boon as his office
was opened for : visitors. Among, those who
called were Noah Davis and General Hill
house. It -is _the- - :opinion -of4liose ' Senators
who have not committed themselves that
Murphy's friends have gained ground so fast
during the past two days that he will be con
firmed without a very bitter fight. The oppo
sition t 0... him,..doe.s....not, , :seem to be well
organized, but work in au irregular sort of
manner, in consequence of which they have
lost ground rapidly.
Favorable ,Chances of ,. Marphy's Con-
tirmation.
The fight over the confirmation of Thomas
• urphy may be regarded now as at au end.
The Senate Committee on Commerce to-day,
after hearing the objections from Senator
Penton and others as to Murphy ought
not to be confirmed, agreed to report his name
back to the Senate and recommend his con
firmation. There'is no longer any doubt now
as to Murphy's confirmation at the next Exe
cutive session of the Senate.

FRIDAY, July B.—Wall street still continues to discuss
the Currency bill s and, curiously enough, is greatly di.
vidt.4.l an to its effect upon the finances There, seems to
be a great deal of misunderstanding as to the real effect
of unlimited issues of national bank notes, and bank ex
pansion is confounded with currency expansign. The
more_theLbaults sa.pand_under-the-national-baelk system
- the greater - the - contractioxa of . the real money of
the country. It was bank expansion that brought
on the panic of-1857. Congress has done the giountry
no good by authorizing the increase of national bank
facilities. Yet, when so much was threatened, the
public arc to be congratulated It is no worse. General
fJrant ought, however, to caretully consider the Cur
rencyjbill,before gie lug- it-hits signature.-- Should.h.e -
withhold his sanction and throw the whole question
over to the next aessionief Etongress,he would not be
doing ankles and the people would endorse him. The bill
so far is a triumph for liecreutryyßouttvell,-,wholeis
mild contractionist. In pursuing his idea of bring
ing the country to specie payments has it not occurred
to himiliat hi place of pressing a measure which is to
cen_cel forty-flee mitliensof time Per cent, eeritlicetes it.
wools has e been better to have kept on in the old way of
using his currency balance to redeem and cattier the Six
per cent. five. twenties 1' He would by so doing save the
country twice as much interest. President Grant ought
to take this idea into consideration in preparing a veto
of the bill, it seems Gott the bill works even .greater
contraction than we at first supposed. A correepOndent,
ho is a prominent authority in the street, writ's US
In referring to the three per cents. and bank reserve
you say : ' , The bill proposes violent contraction, for. the.
- three percents.count asreserve in the banks the ex
tent of three-fifths of their amount:?' You will find, by
nexamiliat ion-of-thalaw r t hat-tho,banke-are-allowed
to ketp-three-tifths of theirontire reserve in them, tied
simply to count three-fifths of the three per cents. as re
serve. To illustrate: The circulation and deposits of
the. New York city banks alone amount to about 8250,-
0.41,CW. on which twenty-five per cent. reserve would be
5j624,e0,000, of which they are permitted to keen three
lift its, or $'37.500.000, in the three per cent. certificate,.
The gold market was feverish and excited, in conse
quence Of tenoned further complications in the hostile
attitude of ranee and Prussia, and the price ran up to
1134. Later in the forenoon there was a reaction to
1113 a, gold showing a coustant,tendeuey to decline unner
the anticipated contraction to result from the operation
of the Currency bill. Were it not for the foreign
news gold would• have gene down below Ile
since the passage of the bill. At • noon
there was a return to 112.'.1, when it was discovered at
the Sub- Treasury that the competition for the
Government gold elicited bids for a total of six and a
quarter millions. lii the- afternoon five-twenties and
renter came better from London and Paris, which - wits
interpreted as the Index of. a less warlike situation, and
gold again went off to 11134, closing at 111."0112. The
Government gold sold to-day was the coin in
terest belonging to the . sinking and special funds.
The bide ranged from 11l to• 112.15, and the
awards were made at 111 90 to 112.95.. The currency pro•
eeeds of .the sale. viz., .$2,1,11,336, - - be -reinvested in
bonds on Monday.
The brokers reported a better demand for money
early in the day. and some small loans Were made at
five per cent. Before the close of banking lifters, how
ever, the demand hod been fully satisfied, and the rates
on call closed at four per cent. on stock collaterals, and
three percent. on governments. In the discount mar
ket prime double names were quoted Write tei per cent.,
and prime single name paper 7 to 9,per cent.
The government market a - as steady and rather firmer.
despite the sharp fluctuations in the gold market, and
was quite indifterent to the lower quotations in Europe.
The street is becoming disabused of the impression that
the Currency bill Will curtail the amount of bonds to be
withdrawn from the market hence to the full operation
of the bill should it become a law. At the close the
market was firm, in anticipation of the reinvestment of
the proceeds of to-day's gold sale. _
