THE TROUBLE IN EUROPE.
— lt seems absurd,_if not monstrous, that -the
nomination of a man,heretofore unknown, to
the vacant throne of Spain, should be made a
pretext for a great European war. The sudden
frenzy into which France has been thrown
seems altogether unreasonable. The bullying
tone of the Ministers and press has already
created an impression that they were anxious
for an excuse to open hostilities against. Prus-.
sia. But already there are signs of a better
feeling, and a, panic which prevalied in . the
chief cities of Europe yesterday morning; sub
sided as the day advanced. The various
rumors that have been telegraphed have a de
cidedly sensational look, and some of them
appear to have been put in circulation by gam
'biers in the funds. - _
It-is-probable-that to-dayls-despatches msy
convey the answer of Prussia to the demand
of France._ The delay in sending that answer
is evidence that King:William and - his advisers
are not going to act precipitately, and thereby
they administer a mild but telling rebuke to
France. War is a tremendous evil, at all times.
It is a tremendous crime on the part of those
that begin it, when it is entered upon wan
tonly, or merely for the sake of conquest, or to
gratify personal or dynastic ambition. This
opinion must be entertained by many sensible
people in France, and it willgain ground, after
the first burst of passion has had time to subside.
Then there will be plans devised for settling
the difficultly peaceably, and the improVed
tone of the markets yesterday afternoon seems
.to indicate that a peaceable solution of the
trouble is expected.
P. 5.,--Since the above was put in type the
cable telegrams of the American Press Associa
tion inform us that the reply of the King of
Prussia has been received. He consents as
lead of the hmise of Hohenzollern, but not
as King of Prussia, to withdraw from Prince
Leopold his sanction of his claim. This is some
what Pickwickian, but it will probably serve
its purpose, as immediately afterward comes
the announcement that Prince Leopold him
self has withdrawn from the candidature. This
is the simple solution of a question that peo
ple who value peace and detest war had a right
to expect.
THE SCHOEPPE CASE.
We published, yesterday, the opinion of the
Supreme Court, refusing to extend 'to Paul
Schoeppe the benefits of the law passed by the
last Legislature to meet his case. The opinion
is not a long one. It argues the case with the
coolness which might characterize a case of
petty larceny. No one, previously ignorant of
the facts, would imagine that the tremendous
issue of human life was hanging upon this de
cision
of the Supreme Court. It is good fur
the law to be dispassionate and impartial. It
is rather a fine thing to see our last tribunal of
appeal, sitting in the high, ratified atmosphere
of its judicial supremacy, so far above the
common influences of our lower humanity as
to take no cognizance of those personal con
siderations which affect the judgments and the
lives of ordinary mortals. There is something
rather awe-inspiring in that de-humanizing
process of Justice which clothes its high priests
with the colorless garments of abstract prin
ciple, and removes them beyond the reach of
mortal sympathy and feeling.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania exhibits
`this sublimated form of Justice in a striking
degree, in its action upon the case of Paul
Schoeppe. It draws a fine, technical line with
admirable precision, and determining that a
certain abstract quality, which common people
call human life, chances to lie, by a hair's
breadth, on the thither side of it, it calmly
leaves it there, to perish, as it would have left
any other abstraction, say a pocket-book or a
title to a foot of ground. Rather more calmly.
indeed, for Judge Agnew placidly expresses the
' preference of his Court for criminal cases, they
are "more easy to decide."
But the world at large is so different. It
places such an estimate upon the poorest human
life t _thatit begins to talk s_eriwsly of taking it
' -iitogether out of the power of the ministers of
the lam to toll& it. It makes such a distinc
tion bet Ween capital and civil offences
that a strong drift is setting steadily toward a
total abolishing of capital punishment. We
have never done anything to help this drift, but
it is not worth while to ignore its existence or
its force. The world, weighing the question of
human life at its own estimate and not in the
inspired balances of arch judicial revelation,
will not agree with the proposition to bang
men upon any such nice thread of technical
distinction as that which so calmly consigns
Paul Schoeppe to the scaffold.
The point of Judge Asnew's decision is,
fortunately, extremely simple and clear, and
yet •the honorable judge gives but a partial
history of the way in which Paul Schoeppe
happened to be found on the wrong side of
the fine line which makes for him the differ
' Ince 'between • life and 'death. :That hiStory
• tai 'already been told - more than once; bat it
may be briefly repeated.
Paul Schoeppe was convicted-at Carlisle,
• more than a year ago, of murder, upon evidence
against" which the whole scientific world cried
out with one earnest Ivotest, as being absurd,
illogical, impossible. Failing 'to obtain relief
m this unrlghte•ous verdict, recourse was

lawhuder . consideration; Scboepps case came ..
before the Supreraellaurt, sitting, in Philadel
Its argument was - suspended for
a day by . request of Schoeppe's counsel,
to afford time to obtain the
Governor's signature.. Instead of the
signature, the Governor, acting, bf course, un-.
der his proper legal advice, sent a veto. The
case went on under the old law, while the new
taw was pending in the Legislature. The
Court reserved its decision for a few days, and
then, just one day before the Legislature passed
the bill into a law, over the Governor's veto,
gave its judgment adversely to the prisoner.
On the 14th of February the Court, knowing'
that this new law for the relief of Schoeppe
was yet undecided in the Legislature, shut its
doors against him. On the 15th of February
the Legislature enacted the law, which would
have given the accused all that he .asked. There
were able lawyers on the floor of the Senate,
some probably as able as any who sit on the
Supreme bench, who demonstrated the equity ,
and the legality of the vetoed bill, and it be
came a law.
- --Now,-the-Supreme---Court_determinev thatL

very law. The accident of a single day, a
brief delay in the final enactment of a pending!
law, are declared to cut off a man's chance for'
his life. _ IL we protest against this_ fatal deci
sion,—fatal so far as courts of law are con-'
cerned, at least,—it, is because we know it to
be at variance with the opinions of some of
the ablest judicial minds of the State, and be-:
cause it is straining a construction of law
against human life when all law should be
strained in. the opposite direction, in fitunrem
• 'Otte. The law of February 15th, 1870, refers
to "all cases removed into .the Supreme Court,
or now pending in said Court." We . are not,
presurnptuous•enough to-challenge the law-of--
the-Supreme-Court,-but-eVery_citizen 's q r .tl*
erty to exercise his best common sense on all
subjects, and it will be very hard to convince a
Very large body - 6f very' Sensible people that a
law like this, made to apply to "all cases," only
excludes the part iculac case for which it was
drafted and passed.
But Paul Schoeppe's case, whether rightly or
wrongly, has passed from under the jurisdiction
of the Supreme Court. Without any word of -
regret or sympathy, without any suggestion of
possible • remedy, the Law calmly and coldly
shuts its doors in .his face, and leaves him con
fronted with a shameful death. The question
of his innocence or guilt is not touched or al
luded to. The monstrous assertion that his
alleged victim died from the
! poison- of prussic
acid seventeen hours after it was said to have
been administered; the absurd pretence that
prussic acid, one of the most volatile of poisons,
was found, two weeks • after death; the many -
contradictions in the testimony of the witnesses
who labored so hard to hang this man,—all
these are left wholly disregarded, and, but that
the Governor still - stands in the way, Paul
Schoeppe is to be put to death, 'simply upon a
nice -technical distinction of abstradt law.
The ease goes back to the Governor, stronger
than ever in its appeal to his humanity awl
sense of justice. " Nothing has been done to
dispel the graVe doubts that interpose between
the prisoner and the sentence of death, and we
confidently renew-theappeal - to the pardoning
power of the Executive, in the belief that Go

THE FIREMEN
New York, Baltimore, Cincinnati, St. Louis.
Chicago, San Francisco, and twenty other large
cities of America, have gone through the scenes
of disgraceful riot among volunteer firemen
that afflict Philadelphia, and in every case, the
remedy of a Paid Fire Department has been
applied successfully.. It is the only remedy, in
fact. For there are no conceivable laws and
no possible police that can restrain an irre
sponsible body of many thousands of men and '
boys, who cultivate feuds and rivalries, and
who, in many cases, think more of a race or a
fight, than of putting out a fire.
The timid people who talk about the cost of
a Paid Fire Department, in a vast city like
this, ought to look at the cost of the present,
system. Haw many millions have been spent
by the citizens of Philadelphia in the erection
of engine-houses and the construction of ma
chines for the volunteer firemen? Does not
the city have to appropriate money every year
for their maintenance ? Are there" not con
tinual demands made upon business men for
money for balls, excursions and parades of the
firemen ? Does not each parade—like
that of the recent reception of the New
Orleans firemen—cost many thousands
of dollars in money, to say nothing of the loss
of a whole day's work for the thousands in the
procession and more thousands of curious
lookers-on 1 It was a pretty sight to behold;
but An-one way or_anotherit-must-havecost
the Philadelphim fiei thuusawl dollars, Yu
another than a pecuniary way it cost more ; for
out.of it sprang some of the bad feeling that
led to the outrageous riots of last Sunday, the
expense of which was, a destructive fire and
immeasurable disgrace to the city.
Some years ago the Fire Association Insur
ance Company made a proposition to organize
a Paid Fire Department for the city, and main
tain it at a very moderate annual cost. We
do not remember the figures, but it was very
little more than the amount annually appro
priated by the city for the volunteer firemen.
Perhaps a similar project might be entertained
still, if there was any encouragement held out
for its being accepted by the city. But the
question of the cost of a Paid Fire Depart
ment is insignificant alongside of the question of
the peace and safety of the people, the security
of pro-the prevention of idleness, vice.

Congress yesterdaY approirlated fifty thou-;
sand dollars to
,p . ,47 life expenses - of 'the Rai
Cloud and Spotted Tailindiiin dolekatiens.
Soine opposition' was manifested - Aix certain
obstinate members, but as the expenses had
been' incurred in a legitimate eilort to arrange;
a difficulty with•Pese savages,, it ; was _exactly
proper that they should have been , paid
promptly. The only question is, whether it
will be worth while to repeat the experiment,
Much of the money spent upon Red Cloud and
his party was devoted to traveling expenses. It
was thought necessary to take him to navy
yards and arsenals, and to drag him around
among our Eastern cities, that he might be
completely frightened from warlike purposes
hy the evidence of our tremendous power.'
But, like Artemus Ward's f"cetious pirate, Red
Cloud " didn't scare worth a cent." Re
grumbled and complained during his visit, and
upon his return home, 'if report
tells the 'truth, • he immediately be
gan to organize war. Spotted Tail was so
little impressed, that, the death of one of his
w isles, being attributed to the influence of the
_white government, he began to threaten and
complain' hefor& he was fairly settled in his
wigwam. If these costly visits from the In
dians do not produce better results, it is folly to
expend money: upon them. The fifty thou-
Sand dollar's' appropriated yesterday Is abso
lutely, thrown away; it would have do& ,more
good if it bad been tossed into the streets of
Washington by the ,bandful. In the future, if
Indians wish to visit Washington, it, will be
wise to let them do so at their own expense.
Rind treatment and the contrast of 'our-wealth
with their poverty only makes their feeling
against us more intensely bitter.

_will be

Mr.- Segal., :1 - 6110 g the - ark om-, applie,a for •
an appropriation of three or four
~thousand
dollars to pay the expenses' f the contest.' The
House very properly refused to give him - the
money. Clearly he was as much entitled to
such assistance as any of the other politicians
who have appeared before Congress in the
same character; and if it was right to give it to
them it was just that be should have it. But
the._ principle is_ . entirelywrong, and - it.ouglit
never to have been recognised or admitted.
Doiehs of contests of this kind have been-.be

but who brought claims into the House, •:a.MI.:

simply that they might heal the wounristaused

A telegram from Havana says that grea'
excitement prevails throughout the island of

is not to be wondered at, for Cuba is more
interested in the question of peace or war,..in_
Europe than any other part of America.

Spain, no reinforcements can be sent to Cuba,
and the insurgents may have more succes,
than heretofore. The idea of general Jordan
that France would seize the island and retain
it is absurd. She might, however, blockade
the ports and take possession of some of the
cities, and this wotild be it great help to the
insurgents. But after the lesson of Mexic

than One litnalred Routes of summer travel fur
the accommodation of the thousands of tourists

fatigue of; city reside,nce. To glance over
the schedule of these hundred different routes

over the old-fashioned system

travel. These routes cover a great variety of
trips to Niagara Falls, Canada, the Lakes,
New England, the White•Moubtains, Saratoga,

in a hurry, and by comfortable and attractive
stopping-places, if he is at his leisure. The
roads over which he passes are among the

man in February, 18211, and served on the Bra
zilian coast, ana in the Mediterranean iu thO
years 1827-8. On his return he went through
a course of naval study, and was engaged in
the coast survey in 1835-0. In March, 1837, he
was promoted to a lieutenancy, aud - was made
a commander in September, 1855. At an early
age he acquired a taste for constructing ord

importance in the House proceedings to-day
was the reporting back from the Appropria

SAN FItA.WCIECO, July 1411.—The steamship
Continental, from Guaymas, has arrived at
this port. She brings ninety passengers and
five hundred thousand dollars in treasure. Her
advices are important. They contain particu
lars confirmatory_of_the__seizure of the city of
Guaymas by the force of General Placido,
Vega, and the subsequent pursuit and destruc
tion of the marauding steamer Forward by
the United 'States gunboat Mohican. After
the capture of the city the insurgents,being re-,
duced, hurriedly departed.
The commander of the Mohican, learning
thembereabouts of the Forward, punf uedlier.
The Forward fled up the Teaper River..., Six
boats of the Mohican were manned, and under
the command of Lieut,Bronson, followed the_
Forward to a Point' foity-t*o miles into the
interior. - Here the crew of the • steamer were ,
found strongly entrenched, and upon the ap.
pearance of the' Mohican's boats, a fusilacle
was opened from the shore with deadly effect
upon the crew of one of the boats, killing
Ensign Wainwright, commander of the first
cutter,' and JOsepli O'Donnell, a seaman.
Eleven other sailors were wounded.
The light twelve-pound Dahlgren howitzers
of the cutters were brought to' bear upon the
intrenchments and a vigorous fire drove the
rebels from their works. A torch was then
applied to the Forward, and she .was totally
destroyed. The expedition succeeded in get

THE CONFERENCE OF CHRISTIANS

of Ohio on the subject of the -Conference of
Christians of all nations about to .he held in
New York:
STONE HOUSE, ST. PETER'S,, THANET, June
20, 1870.—illy Dear Bidwp: I cannot receive
from you a formal statement respecting the
proposed General Cenference of. Christians
from all countries soon to be held in - NPNV
York, without begging you to inform the
president of the meeting of the deep interest
Which I feel in its proceedings. You are aware
that I have never - been a member of the
Evangelical Alliance. But it is not pos
sible for me .to hold the position God
has assigned to me in that church
which has generally been regarded as' the
bulWark ," of the' - Ireformation, without
praying. for G'od's' especial blessing on all
earnest eitiirts to Spread the great gospel doc
trines which the reformers vindicated. I
trust that the Holy Spirit of God may guide all
who take part in your discussion at New York,
and that the solution of the great social and
religious questions of which you propose to
treat may be advanced by the mutual inter-
Course of minds - accustomed, many of them,
to regard those questions in different aspects,
according to the peculiarities of their several
countries. That God 'may hasten the time
When the differences 'which at present tend
too much to keep Christians asunder may be
removed, and when all who love the Lord
Jesus Christ in sincerity May be able to unite,
both outwardly and •in spirit, is my hearty
prayer. Believe me. to be, my dear bishop,
your faithful brother in Clfidst,

The New York :gooey Market
'Froth the hew York Herald of to-ditY.l
litoNeav, July 11.—Wall street is still agitated by the
news hem Europe, but the excitement has so far been
eounned to the Gold Rome. The brokers made their ap
pearance there at every early hour this morning, and as
the cable had already furnished advices np to neon to
day concerning affairs at the London Stock Exchange
and Paris Bourse the market was affected by news even
later than that contained in the morning papers. The
first report giving five-twenties at and renter
&mu to -66.14'1,. there was a half panic among
the gold dealers, and sales took place at IlsNallsli long
before the session of the Board formally commenced.
Private despatches reported five-twenties as low as 36..
The unreasonable difference between the closiu,gprice of
gold on Sattirday evening and, that at the opening this
morning invited heavy Bales; Which led to a decline to
114;4 soon after the Board opened. It to significant that
the sellers at the advanced quotations were the leading
foreign bankers. From this point there was a reaction
to 1147,i, and a subsequent decline to 113i,;', the latter
being precipitated by the announcement that England
had offered her services as mediator between France and
Prussia. Later in the day it was reported that Prance
had declined the offer of England's meduttion.and gold
ran back to 114. Here a telegram front London stated
that a much better feeling had taken the place of the
early depression at the Royal axehange, that live-twen
ties had risen to e 834 , and that hopes ,were entertained
, of apeaceful settlement of the misunderstanding be
tween France, Prussia and Spain. Hereupon gold de
clined to 11234, but finally closed at Mi . , It was,
moreover; explained that the early decline in 5.20's at
London was due to the approach of settling day (Media,
July 15). and to the apprehension that a state of war
would induce a sharp contraction of loans in the money
niarket. . Hence theyealization in various securities in
anticipatien of' a striugent money market: , . The clear -
slices at the Gold Bank reflect the large dealings in
gold
e n Saturday, and it is thought the amount of
neday a _business will lead 'to a very large figure
to-morrow. The excitement In the Gold ROOM was
the greatest since the panic or last September It
is a curious feature that the foreign bankers
were Selling ,at any 7fignre - above 114 and
buying from 113 upward. This fact
seems to show their belief that While the present excite
ment lasts there cannot be a very great decline in geld,
and that en the other baud, Should war really be pre
cipitated there will be a demand abroad for American
Recut - hick which will keep gold from advancing Wow'
the highest point attained to-day. Wall street, in put
ting gold to 115'4 has distMunted' a 'war in Europe and
it is dollbtfill if actual hostilities would now do more.
We are inclined to hold to the belief that in the gland
disturbance of the finances of the Old World our tire
twenties will 1M the most fascirito investment iu
London, Paris,Frankfort, Belli). and Vienna, The
capitalists, who dread the micartaiuties of a general
. war, will take Care to secure themselves by turning
their wealth into securities which, In ouch a crisis,
afford the safest inveatmeet: Whatever may become of
English 'consols, French routes, or Prussian funds, the
American five-twenties are certain to be re
deemed at pair, in gold, anal pay the holder

bank ere; , who 'were telling 'gold' to-a:ly know
that in a general - upheaval ••of European finances the
bonds of the Unites States will assert their superiority
1w the foreignanarket, and Unit .the.first thirty and de
cline will be followed by a firm market for them Hence,
.with tie return of our se unties from abroad r and with
fiMprespect that a war In Europe will eventtuilly bring
Europe In debt to ne, they combat every unreasonable

which was read and passed.
A number of private bills for the relief of
individuals were considered and passed.
Senator Chandler called up the bin grant
ing lands and the right of way to the Pecos
and Plover Mining and Ditch Co., of New
Mexico.which was read, amended and passed.
.13 OUSE.- Mr. Dockery, from the Committee
on Appropriations, reported back the Army
Appropriation bill with Senate amendments.
The Committee had instructed him to recom
mend concurrence in the first Senate amend
ment, and agreed to substitute the other
amendments of the old RouSe Army bill as
agreed upon in the Conference . Committee,
with an additional amendment agreed upon
by both Houses, allowing homesteads for sol
diers. It appropriates a total of 529,320,000.
Mr. Dawes said the Committee had been in
doubt whether to report anything except a
legitimate appropriation bill, but had.yielded
to the attempt to engraft on the, appropriation
bill something for the reorganization of the
army. Having thus yielded they had con
cluded to renort as a substitute for the Senate
amendments7the bill which had been reported
from the House Military Committee, and
which had been agreed upon in the conference
Committee and subsequently lidcipted — in the
House by an almost unanimous vote.
Mr. Logan said that after the Army bill had
been approved in the Conference Committee,
and had received the approval of nearly all
the army officers, the Conference report had
been allowed to lay in the Senate for six
weeks, and then for some reason known to
them Selves, they _voted down _the Conference
report and tacked on a substitute.
During the war we had two lieutenants to
each
.company. Now that we have no war,
the Senate, in their wisdom, have raised the
number to three.
The House bill forbids brevet officers to, wear
the insignia, of their brevet rank, but the Sen
ate bill restores all that confusion and non
sense.
The strangest feature of the Senate bill was
that which strikes out the Rouse provision for
paying the officers by salary. : He preferred
that the army should stand on the old pay sys
tem, unless we can make a whole army paya
ble by salary.
The Senate had made the whole bill so ab
surd and ridiculous that every military man
must laugh at it.
Mr. Butler (Mass.) proposed that if there
were to be any reorganization of the army, the
ouse should stand by the bill it had just
passed. The Senate had taken the Ap
propriation bill and had tacked on the Reor
ganization bill, objectionable in every
feature, and had sent it here with the implied
threat we must take this bill or get no army
appropriations. Re was ready to accept that
issue. He did not know upon what meat
those legislative Cfcsars fed, but he could not
agi'ee that they Ahould dictate in regard to the
appropriations. The Senate bill; amended by
adding the R ouse bill as a substitute.was then
agreed to, and the bill goes back'to the Senate
for concurrence. • !
Mr. Schenck, from the Committee of Ways
and Means, reported the Senate joint resolu
tion to determine the construction of the in
ternal revenue act of June 20th, 1864, with the
amendment that it Shall not be construed as

The subsidy asked for is somewhat larger
than that applied for last year,• but the in

The benefits the proposed line is calculated
to confer upon this country are so obvious that
it would , be idle to dilate upon them, and it

no time in sanctioning a measure Of such mani
