The movements for and against the Treaty of Commerce are extending in France. The meeting of workmen which WAS held at the Hotel du Louvre has published a long manifesto against the Treaty, which is signed by the merchants of thirty-four towns. The Chamber of Com merce at Troyes, like those of Rouen, Lille, and others. has refused to send delegates to the Superior Council. It demands a parlLancntary inquiry. The Amiens Chamber of Commerce has addiz,sed the Minister to the same effect. Trenty-, - ix deputies intend to interpellate the Government on the necessity cf denouncing the Treaty. The workman of Lyons are in favour of Free Trade, and the tradesmen of Lyons have combined with those of Beaujolois to defeat the Protec tionists. The Free Trade deputies have concerted to gether to give an impulse to the commercial measures in the Chamber. THE DUKE OF GFSOI. The Presse, of Vienna, publishes a despatch from Florence, professing to give full details of a serious dispute in the Royal Family, respecting the candidature of Prince Thomas for the throne of Spain. The Duchess of Genoa fully shares the opinion of her husband, the Mar quis Rapallo, on the subject, and claims a mother's right to object to "the immolation of her son." The King of Italy, as head of the dynasty, insists upon the young Prince's acceptance of the crown, and as the Duchess will not yield, an open scandal is feared, the King determining to exercise his power. The Indopenclance Belye points out the extravagance of this story. Napoleon might arrogate the power to order his relatives to mount the several thrones of Europe, but Victor Emmanuel has certainly neither the authority nor the inclination to play the despot in like fashion. TIM SPANISH CROWN JEWELS The robbery of the Crown jewels continues to excite Ma drid. In the Cortes a discussion took place on the subject, when some very strong language was used. The Finance Minister, Senor Figuerola, stated that certain Cro wn jewels had been stolen. They had been in the possession of Queen Isabella before she crossed the French frontier, and they had never been sent back. Ferdinand VII. de clared in his will that he had left an inventory of the Crown jewels; but it was never found. When Queen Chriatiana was referred to, she replied that the jewels had been stolen by the French. The value of the lost property .is estimated at £:240,000. ",Spain," said Senor Figuerola, " has been robbed of the accumulated riches of three centuries." A member of the Cortes suggested that the Spanish Government should avail themselves of the extradition laws in order to detect the criminals, but subsequently a parliamentary inquiry was determined upon, and a committee appointed to investigate the affair. TIIE AUSTriTAN MINISTRY. The Vienna correspondent of the Eastern Stalget says that a storm of opposition is gathering against the policy cf the Vienna Cabinet. The failure of their attempt to pacify the Czechs, and to put down the Dalmatian rebellion, have stimulated these who were before opposed to them. The working men of Vienna are now hostile to the Cabinet. The Home Minister has adopted several precautions to prevent displays of ill-will to the Cowin meat at public meetings, and this has made him very unpopular. Dr. Ciskra is in a very awkward position; the Nationalists are against him on account of their dislike of the Constitution, and the lower orders because he reuresses their advocacy of socialist doctrines. TIIB BAVARIAN CIIAIIIIBRS. Tho new majorityin the Chamber of Deputies at Munich is preparing for en attack upcn the Prussian military sys tem, and intends to demand the reduction of those charges which are imposed upon the country by the treaty con cluded with the Prussian Government. It is clear that the real object of the majority is to provoke a . crisis in Germany. In Stuttgard a strong feeling has been manifested against the Prussians, An ephemeral publication issued in that town declares that the population of Stuttgard wish their capital to be a free German town, and will have no Prussian partisans in their municipal council. A SIBERIAN RAILWAY. The Russian merchants at the fair of Nijni Novgorod are about to petition the Government to establish a railway communkation between St. Petersburg and China, through Siberia. Its object will be to protect the Russian trade with China from foreign compe'itien. The Russians declare that the opening of the Suez Canal threatens to ruin their tea trade. The Government seems disposed to adopt the scheme, but has not yet decided where the railway shall be. CHOLERA AND RINDERPEST IN EASTERN EUROPE. A committee of physicians has been appointed to inquire into the outbreak of cholcra, at Rieff, in Russia. They report that the majority cf cases present the symptoms of Asiatic cholera, and many patients died in a few hours. Among the victims was the daughter of the Governor- General of the city. Rinderpest has made its appearance in Silesia. - TIIE NORTII-WEST BOUNDARY OF THE UNITED STATES. The Americans have a Geographical Society as well as ourselves, and at a recent meeting, held at the Cooper Institute, a very interesting paper on the Physical Geo graphy of the North-Western Boundary of the United States was road by Mr. Gibbs,of Washington. Mr. Gibbs was the geo logist to the commission which drew the line of the North- Western boundary, and he explained that the whole line was one range of mountains. On the narrow coast of Washington and Oregon territory there were evidences of the encroachments of the ocean. Tho whole Oregon shore has been washed away from the 44th to the 47th parallel, and along the Straits of Tuca the land is set back from what once was the coast more than two degrees of lon gitude. The Pacific Ocean deepens suddenly on leaving the shore, and along the coast of Cape Pendesceno, the waves break in seventeen fathoms of water, while off Cape Hatteras they break in not more than seven fathoms. The southern portion of Colombia is heavily wooded, and the climate mild. A waterfall on the Colombia river is 235 feet of a clear leap, the stream being only 100 feet wide. The Cascade range of mountains in the interior is a continuation of the Sierra Nevada, and contains many extinct volcanos. The forests aro beautiful, and mosses and lichens abound, but animal life is scarce. This land is very sparsely peopled. The climate is humid and mild, and the snow rarely lasts more than ten days in winter. During the rainy season whole valleys aro submerged, and the melting of snow on the mountains occasions floods in the Frazer and Colombia rivers. Less than ten years ago there was not a white man's habitation to be seen in Washington and Idaho territories, whereas now they have growing populations and numerous towns. Doubt less the tide of emigration will Boor got +Awards tho North- West- ACCIDENTS AND OCCUREENCES.—A. Cincinnati despatch says that three persons were killed by the giving way of the floor of the Coloured Baptist Church at Lexing ton, Kentucky, on Sunday, Nov. 21. The number of wounded is not given.— Two men fell into a vat of boiling water in a pork house at Louisville, Nov. 23. One of them died the same evening, and the other is not expected to live. —Memphis, Tennessee, Nov. 24.—A terrible affair oc curred near Tiptonville, Tennessee, on Sunday. A party of masked men went to the house of William Jones, a planter, for the purpose of disarming the negroes work ing for him. Jones having intimation of their coming determined to resist, as the negroas have been peaceable and well disposed, and made preparations for a defence. When the raiders came they wore met with a destructive fire, which caused them to retreat, leaving ono of their number dead and two mortally wounded. The dead one proved to be Robert Dickinson, living across the Ken tucky line. His cousin, Robert Bealchamp, died the next morning. lie said he was misled into the scrape. The excitement the next day was intense. Officers came to arrest Mr. Jones and six of the negroes, but owing to the excitement Mr. Jones was taken to the river iu charge of the Deputy Sheriff, placed on the steamer Louisville, and brought here, while the Sheriff, with the negroos, started for Troy, but on the way were attacked by a posse, who took five of the negroes into the woods and shot them down. The Sheriff, by hard begging, succeeded in saving the life of the other one, who was taken to Troy and put in gaol. .The excitement in Tiptonville is intense. The parties on both sides aro well known, and it is sup posed that other blood will be shoal, even if the matter is settled. At this time, when the pr:uciplcs and practice of co operative societies engross so large a share of attention, it may be well that Messrs. Parkins and Gotto should remind the no • bili ty and gen try that they have fur the last twenty years adopted the pract co of baying the best goods in large quantities direct from the manufaAarers, marking every article iu plain figures, and retailing hem at the smallest possible profit for ready money; and where, front distance or other causes, cash pay ments have been impossible, they have never increased the price of the articles delivered. They respectfully solicit au inspection of their stock, consisting of portrait albums, writing-cases, dres sing-cases, dressing-bags, despatch boxes,' envelope-cases and blotting-books, inkstands, desks, stationery cabinets, ornamental g ods, purses, pocket books, cigar-cases, reticules, opera-glasses, scent-cases, smelling-bottles, olectro-gilt awl elegantly-mounted articles—in fact, an endless variety of articles to suit every taste purpose, and pocket—Perkins and Gotto, 24 and 25, Oxford street, W. The .spectator thinks that the President's is something more than a moderate Message, it is the Message of one of the older Presidents, of a ruler who,without much original power of his own, regards himself as a representative of the nation, and desires as far as ho can to represent their sentiments rather than those of his party, or even of hid own mind. His allusions to the South, for exemple, are obviously carefully growled, but intended to show the people the work of reeenetruelion, the testing task of the Itepublican part,:-, lees cot been unsuccessfully performed. Seven States, he says, have been "fully restcred;' ho recommends that Virginis should also be admitted; ho hints that the acts of Mississippi and Texas may be ap proved; and he is clay " revolutionary" as regards Georgia. where the white majority have expelled the coloured re- Presentatives, who, he thinks, should be recalled. At the same time, he defends the freedmen from the customary charge of laziness, urging that they, like other human kings, work well when paid well ; and eulogise,, as he well may, their ;.regress in education. Those sentences re present very fairly the sentiments of moderate Anunioans of all classes, and so do the remarks on the finanece. It is however, when he discusses foreign politics that the President becomes a specially representative man. With a skill which would be admirable, but for some absurdi• ties involved in the result, he condenses into a few parct graphs all the ideas now floating about in the American mind. In defiance of some of their ablest lawyers, the Americans still persist in believing that the" unfriendli uess" of this country during the war constituted not only a real grievance --which would he true enough, if the feel ing had beenunivorsal and had been acted on—but a basis for international negotiation; that we ought to acknow ledge ourselves in the wrong, and make atonement in some way satisfactory to their feelings. Peace abroad, retrench reconstruetion, and honesty at home, this is the American programme as defined by President Grant, and it is one which will do much to enhance their posi tion in the family of nations. They may rely on it, a nation which pays off a national debt is the last nation with 1; hich an old-established Power would like to quarrel. The John Bull says now that Dr. Temple's election is. confirmed the one remaining barrier is consecration; and there is no longer any room for the legal- and charitable fictions which have so far been permitted to prevail. No one has ever yet pretended that a Bishop can be compelled by law to confer holy orders. Our Church writers uni formly appeal to the indefeasible right and power of the apostolical function, as the final safeguard of our Catholicity against the possible encroachment of the Resale. It is the power of the keys in the Church of England which is now to be tested. Dr. Temple very naturally cannot say what an Apostle would do in his position. The case is incon ceivable. Not so the case of an Apostle (or primitive Bishop) - solicited to lay hands on one who was not "blame less " before the Church. There was an Apostle who with stood another to the face because he was to be blamed. There was one, and that the Apostle of love, who fled out of the house rather than remain under the same roof with a heretic. But we read of no Apostle consenting to give the Holy Ghost by the com mandment of men. On the issue so raised, there is no room for pleasing delusions. Its magni tude reduces every other question to insignificance in comparison. However it may be decided, the Bishops will be expected to satisfy other con sciences besides their own. - Under the eyes of the old watchful adversary assembled in Council at Borne o in presence of mocking unbelievers and Nonconformists at home, they have to say- - whether there is a living Church with Apostolic mission in this country, or whether the Episcopste we have so long vaunted is, after all, a mere department of the State, and its Catholic forms the dead leaves of a decayed and sapless trunk. That Dr. Temple is not "blameless," that something is needed to clear him from just suspicion, the Archbishop has himself admitted; probably every other Bishop in England save one is so con vinced in his own heart. If consecration be granted with nothing done to satisfy this requisition, wo would rather not speculate on. the consequences. - The actual, proposal of a resolution in the Staffordshire Chamber of Agriculture in favour of " Tenant-right" for English farmers may well, remarks the Economist, excite some surprise. The misfortune is that a wild idea of this sort, if entertained at all among English farmers, or if they are merely supposed to entertain it, will have a mischievous effect on the settlement of the Irish land question. If it is once thought by English tenants that the Irish precedent should be followed here, English landlords will be preju diced against Irish changes, will discuss them as English questions, and thus throw the whole weight of their political influence into the scale against a bill for Ireland. The unsuitability of England for tenant-right--for any settlement of agricultural contracts by custom and much more by legislation—may, moreover, be shown by expe rience. It happens that the Eriglish law already recog nises customs of letting when they have become general in counties, just as it recognises customs of hiring, or of buying and selling in particular markets; but informal usages du not flourish. They are not only prejudicial to cultivation, which is a necessity of the case, and against the interest of landlords, but intolerable to tenants also. In ono direction, it must be admitted, the English law could be improver). The defeat, as we have often insisted, is that the principle is not fully carried out. Land. is treated like other property for certain purposes, but not in all respects and for all purposes as the principle re quires, and the result is not good. Extraordinary remedies, for instance, are given to landlords in recovering their debts from tenants, and thus a premium on bad tenants is created by the operation of the law. But reform of such defects, though it would benefit the country, would be in the very opposite direction to the principle of tenant-right --the essence of which is to make law and usage accom plish what should be left to private contract. An agita tion for tenant -right in England would be exceptionally mischievous, not only by " crossing" the settlement of an Irish question, but by diverting- attention from the farmers' trade grievances, which may:properly be redressed and the suitable remedies for them. LAW AND POLICE. rssivc COSTS.—A motion has been heard in the Rolls Court respecting a bill of costs. Messrs. Gregg, solicitors of Kirkby Lousdale, had been for many years the solicitors of Mr. Proctor, an elderly invalid, whose affairs were managed by his nephew, Mr. Gilbert Proctor, under a power of attorney. Owing to some family dispute last June, Mr. Gilbert's power to act for his uncle was revoked, and a Mr. Prance was substituted for the Messrs. Gregg, as solicitor. Mr. Prance applied to the Messrs. Gregg for his new client's papers and for their bill. They sent their bill and a cheque for the balance due to Mr. Proctor, after deducting the amount of their bill, to Mr. Gilbert Proctor, and a week after wrote to Mr. Prance, s aying they had no money due to Mr. Proctor in their pox - cession, and that nothing was due to them. Mr Prance thereupon took out the usual order to tax the bill of costs, to which Messrs. Gregg paid no attention, and an attach ment consequently issued. The present motion was to set it aside. The Master of the Rolls refused the motion, with costs, remarking that he could not allow a solicitor to say in resistance to the order to tax his bill, that he had, since the bill and the papers were applied for, delivered both to another person. On the applicants undertaking to deliver their bill of coats within ten days, the proceedings under the attachment would bo stayed. THE NEW CROSS ACCIDENT.—A verdict for damages for £4OO has been awarded by tho Sheriffs' Court, to another ufferer by the New Cross accident in June. FIRING BARNS.—The cases of arson in the county assizes are very numerous. Four cases were tried at York, and broke down for want of evidence. At Warwick, a man named Raffe was sentenced to six years' penal servitude for firing two barns and a corn shed. The prisoner had been drinking, but some doubts were expressed by tho jury as to the state of his mind, which the judge said ought to be communicated to the Secretary of State. ILL-TREATING A LIINATIC.—At the York .Assizes, Wil liam Tracey, warder in the Clifton Lunatic Asylum, near York, was found guilty of ill-treating a lunatic. Ho was told to give him a hot bath, and left him in the bath-room with two other patients, who put him in too hot water. He died from the effects of the scalding. As the warder had not acted from malevolence, and had already been three months in prison, the judge thought a nominal sentence of imprisonment was sufficient. He was therefore discharged. He had previously been dismissed from the asylum, but r.s recommended to mercy by the Visiting Committee.
