NO Will WITH SPAIN. •This country ifl not likely to be involved in a ■war with Bpsin lor the present. It appears that the President’s instructions to the oommander of the Gulf Squadron were not quite so strong as at first reported. We rather regret to learn that such is the fact. Strong inßtrnotions, vigorous- ly carried out in a few instances, would put an end to those provocations that have exhausted the patience of tho American people. Bnti there will be no war with Spain fordhe present. Single handed she will not venture upon it. The French Emperor might be disposed to aid her; but such a war would bo fur from popular with tho French people. They entertain no prejudices against this country to which the Emperor could appeal to justify voluntary hos tility to the United Btatea. Tho French nation has no tight to interfere in the difficulties be tween Spain and this country; and the preserva tion of Cuba to Spain is a matter in whioh the French people can feel no interest. Besides, Spain can keep her island in safety if Bhe will redress past wrongs, and avoid all aots of inso lenoo nod provocation hereafter. But there iB a yet stronger reason for believing that we shall bo involved in no hostilities with Spain. There arc nnmistakeable indications that the Anglo-Frenoh alliance will not last much longer. Tho Crimean oampaigu has done no credit to either England or France ; but it has certainly proved the superiority of tho French military organizitions. British courage is unsurpassed; but a French army is far more efficient in its organization, provision and dis cipline. The campaign beforo Sebastopol has illustrated this fact; and Louis Napoleon has already shown that he fully comprehends it. He assumes an offensive superiority in the allianoe, and tho English press is not Blow to rosent his insolence. Ho is suspected of being averse to peace, and of entertaining designs in imioil to England. Tho Liverpool Times, an able and influential jourual.’in speaking of the French Emperor, has tho following strong and significant remarks: " Wo ought not to overlook his antecedents or the means by which he reached the throne; nnd as we have no clue to the future except through the medium of the past, it is just possible that wo are reaching that turning point in tho French allianoe which will reveal the character of tho Emperor in its trae colors. We can state, con fidently, that serious fears are entertained in very high quarters that tho obstructions to peace will proceed less from Russia than from France— that a peace at the present moment, even on the most honorable terms, and with undoubted secu rities for the future, is not what Louis Napoleon really dosires—that he pants beyond ell things for the achievement of thoßO brilliant viotorics which will consolidate his dynasty, and rival the military fame of his uncle—and that he expects England to aid him in these Quixotic schemes. If those suspicions are realized—and wo know that they ore entertained by persons who have aocess to tho very beßt sources of information— we shall find tho Frenoh allianco a very trouble some affair, which will either drag us rurther than we are inclined to go, or leave us very ill at ease with a power whose co-operation in this Russian war was hailed with enthusiasm by tho people of tbis empire.” Those remarks indicate a speedy rapture of ' the-grand alliance that was to eettlo Eastern and I Western questions. Intoxicated with usurped power and success; with the superior efficiency of his army, and tho great numbers ho can call to the field, while England is boating over half the world for reffruite, the French Emperor will not foil to demand the leading and controlling position in tho alliance. English prido and French vanity will not work together. The alli ance cannot last. England desires peace; Louis Napoleon war; and England will not be dragged into an expensive and bloody war merely to gratify the vanity of tho French usurper. It seems that ho has already used language of menace towards tho English government that English pride will promptly resent. Tho Liver cool Times says, on this subject: “ Although we have expressed our disbelief that the French Emperor can have held the lan guage of menace or intimidation to the British government which the morning papers referred to imputes to him, what will bo the feelings of oar countrymen when it is discovered that he has actually done so; nnd that he may be found, moreover, the strongest opponent of peace aris ing out of tho conference of Vienna.” At tho same time, too, we find a Frenoh editor strongly urging the demolition of the British fortress at Gibraltar. He thinks Sebastopol should bo destroyed that tho Black Sea may bo free; and that Gibraltar should be dismantled that tho Mediterranean Sea may bo free also. His argument is a strong one, but it is most in sulting to England. There are causes enough, already at work to put an end to the Anglo- Frenoh alliance in less than a twelvemonth ; and such an event may be pretty safely prodioted. It will not bo an nmiooble dissolution of partner ship either. The same causes that Bunder the alliance will arouse all tho ancient animosity of tho two nations, nnd serious difficulties will follow. - With that allianco at an end, Spain will look in vain for European aid in her threatened con ' test with tho United States. The English people desire no war with this oountry ; and the voice of the English people is becoming potent now with their government. If the alliance and tho Russian war continue wo shall havo no war with Spain. If the allianoe is dissolved neither Eng land nor Franoo will back Spain. Neither could, separately, without exciting the jealousy of the other. Oa the whole we consider it pretty oer tain that no war will for the present disturb the prosperity of this nation. It seems equally cer tain, too, that the strong nations of Europe are involved in difficulties and complications that it will take many years to settle; and that will never be sottlcd but at the cost of much blood and treasure. What thrones may crumble in the midst of tho conflict it were vain to predict. What nations may riso to independence and free dom, or what people be subjected to a conquer, or’s sway, it were idle to corjecture. But we would not give much for the Ottoman's alien and tottering throne; nor bo surprised at another French revolution* Unless peaoo iB concluded at Vienna soon, the near future will disclose events of vast importance to tho two hundred and fifty million peoplo of Europe. What is a Ton Weight? —We staled some days ago tbat Judge Qricr, of tbe United States Cirouit Court, sitting at Philadelphia, decided that 2210 lbs. constituted a ton weight, and not 2000 tbs. sb the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania had previously declared was sufficient. The Judge said a company of grocers might as well meet and agree to reduce the number of ounces in a pound, and make the smaller number the standard of a pound for their customers, as for ooal dealers to agree that the weight of a ton ehall be 2000 lbs. This deoision is of some im portance to tbe Coal and Iron men in this region As the Constitution of the United States gives to Congress the power to regulate weights and measflres, of course the State Court’s opinion will not avail in opposition to the decision of a United States Court. c _**• ~? \ • .;■ ■- - j. - * ■-_> PITTSBURGH* Title NT.IVU.

A negro boy was shot by a white boy named Robert Frazer, in Petersburg, Va., tho other day. It appearß tho negro boy was playing with a oat, nmußing himself in an innocent way, when this youth told tho negro to leave the cat and play with him. Tho negro, not obeying ] tho command, turned round with his face to Frazer, and, ns he tumod, Frazer fired at him with his guD, the whole load lodging in tho negro boy’s month, tearing part of his noße cff, knocking oat two or three teeth, and injuring him very much.

Trouble Among the Qdakebs. —The proceed ings of the Yearly Meeting of Friends now being held in Philadelphia, are said to be much more inharmonious than usually characterizes tho ga therings of tho followers of IVm. Penn. The cause is said to bo this : At tho laßt yearly meet ing of tho society in Ohio, a division of senti ment and action took place between the adher ents of Garay and Wilbur, ono party flaally scecding from the meeting, and actiog as an independent body. From each of the Ohio meet ings an “ Epistle” was issued. At the gather ing of the meeting in Philadelphia these '* Epis tleß ” wero presented, and tho question came up as to which Bhculd be received. A very exciting discussion took place, the result of which was the reception and consequent endorsement of the “ Wilbur Epistle.” The Gumyitvs, if we un derstand the matter aright, are progressive in their principles, whereas tbo Wilburites are con servative, or as young America would say, they are tho “ old fogies.” Tho “ Ilicksitcs ” have no connection in tho present matter, that part of the society having long since sot up for itself, and tho present contest being confined to what is known aßthe “Orthodox” branch of the Bociety. ggy- Tho following sums were paid to the State Treasury by Mr. Hugh Fleming, treasurer of Allegheny county, betweeu the Ist of January, 1854, and the Ist of January, 1555.

The reasons for this decision are assigned in the opinion itself. It seems that Section 25 of tho new law prohibits granting any license to sell liquor after the Ist of May:—aud as tho pains and penalties of tho old law do not apply to vio* lotions of the new, —and as those of the new law do not take effect’until the 4th of July, there will be no law in existence after the Ist of May to prevent free trade in liquor, until tbo day when the new law takes effeot. This is certainly an extraordinary oversight on the part of tbo framers of the Prohibitory law, for it cannot be supposed tbat they intended it to have any suoh effeot. High Prices. —The New York Courier, after inquiries respecting tbo present supply and quantity to come forward of agricultural pro ducts, hazards tl\p opinion tbat prices have reached their highest, aud tho next movement will bo a retrogado one, although present prices may be maintained two or three weeks. The Courier bases its opinion on the fact t -at there are one million five hundred thousand barrels of flour to como forward before harvest from the western States and the Canadas, which are awaiting the opening of the canals in that State. Fiftoen thousand bushels of potatoes are on their way to tho New York market from Nova Scotia, under the Reciprocity law. The crop of pota toes in Nova Scotia last year was very largo. Free trade, has, within a few weeks, opened this market to consumers, and tho chances are that a liberal supply will come forward, under the pre sent high prices. We hope, for the benefit of consumers, that these prediotions may be reali zed. The high prices of food affect many kinds of business injuriously, as it takes nearly all the money the laboring population can earn to find themselves in food, which they cannot do without. Size of London,— London extends ovor an area of 78,029 aores or 122 square miles, and tho number of its inhabitants, rapidly increas ing, was two millions, three hundred and sixty two thousand, two hundred and thirty-six (2,- 362,236) on the day of the last census. A con ception of this vast mass of peoplo may be form ed by tho fact that, if the metropolis was sur rounded by a wall, having a north gate, a south gate, an cast gate, and a wost gate, aod each gate ot the four gates was of sufficient width to allow a column of four persons to pass out free ly four abreast, and a peremptory neoossity re quired the immediate evacuation of the city, it could not bo accomplished under four and twen ty hours, by the expiration of which time tbo head of eaob of the four eolumns would have advanced a no less distance than seventy miles from their respective gates all tho people being in closo file, four deep.— Cheshire's Results of the Census.

ASOTHER OftKAT RACE I THE FASTEST THREE M) ■' ° rlcans Crcscci,t > A p rfi ij o The VenKtrk we hazarded the other day that, hereafter, lacing io the city of New Orleans wonU bo directed against timo made in the city rather than against anything else, has received another very strong mark of confirmation in yes terday’s race. Daring tho ÜBt year, the best time ever made at four-mile heats was made over the Metaire. Daring the present meeting, four miloa were run by Lexington io 0} seconds less time. One year ago the beet three milo race ever run was run over tho Metarie, aud yester day that time was beaten by five seconds and one-quarter! The old “ spring board,” though measured and re-moasurod, has been fouud cor root, aud is still in advauco of all others. The weather yesterday was all that tho moßt anxiousturfites could ask—tho sun shining down | brilliantly, and yet not with nD uncomfortable warmth. * Tbo track was in excellent order, and the attendance every way respectable. A three mile raoe is always interesting, and, io cqscb like the present, where a field of well-known horses come togetbor, not even the four-mile day has greater attractions. Tbero were four horses entered for the purse of $6OO. yesterday, at three milo heats: Arrow, Brown Diok, Hornpipe and Mary Taylor. The first named was the favorite against the field, at 100 to 70 before the start, and tho remaining three were backed for the second place, accord ing to the partialities of their friends. First Heat.— Brown Diok went off with the lead, followed by Arrow—Mary Taylor bringing up tho rear. On the back etretoh, and through the sccoud and third miles. Arrow lay close to the running horse, waiting an opportunity to take the front plage. Hornpipe and Mary made several ineffectual attempts to oloao the gap that was opened on them, but found the paco too fast. Tho horses passed the stand in the samo order in which they left it—Mary Taylor being dis tanced. Time, 5:80J Second lleat. —At the oloso of tho heat tho betting changed, and Brown Dick, who had run -at a pace, and with an ease wholly unexpected, became the favorite at four to one. He started off with tho lead as before, and, though fre quently pushed at by Arrow in the most ener getio manner, held his place to the end. Horn pipe had no sbowiog whatever, aud hroke down on the first half mile, though he kept np bis running to the close of ihc second mile, in hopes of saving a distance. He gave out at tho draw gates of tbo home stretch and was with difficulty taken from tho track, baviDg severely strained the tendon of bis off fore leg where it jVins the pastern. The heat was decidedly the most beau tiful and tho most closely contested we have ever Been. It excelled the time of Little Flea, tho fastest ever made before at three mile h:nts, (u:33J) —and surpassed that of Lexington iu his time race, although the latter horse bad the ad vantages of a ruoning 9tart and n borrowed track. Many who witnessed the race, believe that if he bad run another mile bo would have beaten Lecompto’s 7:20, and crowded close down to the 7:19$ of Lexington. Tho time made was 6:28, and tho winner uame in with pricked cars and apparently as much life and animation as when ho started. Metarie Ccuasr, April 10.— Club Pur-'-o SG:)0 — 3 mile hi-nbi. Col.
