SPIRIT OF TICE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Herald says that the vote of thanks to Sir Robert Napier and the officers and men of the Abyssinian expedi tion, proposed in the House of Lords and the House of Commons last night, was passed, not only by the voice of both Houses of Parliament, but by the acclamation of the nation. The crowded galleries of the House of Commons and the numbers of eager listeners who choked the lobby and approaches, testify to the interest evinced in the suc cessful end of the strange and unprecedented campaign. The vote was carried amid cheers that shewed how heartily the nation appreciated the gallantry of those who had brought to so successful an end so hazardous an under taking. Well is the vote of thanks deserved. Well has this, the highest reward that the country can offer, been earned ; and the Herald expresses its conviction that there does not exist one Englishman in whose heart they do not find a ready response and who does not cordially echo the expression of Parliament. The Post observes that the banquet given to Mr. Cyrus Field on Wednesday last was a tribute honestly and hardly earned by that gentleman by the great services he has rendered in the establishment of a telegraphic commu nication between the European and American continents. We get accustomed to everything very soon in these times, and the Atlantic cable is already coming to be looked upon with as little concern as if it were a legacy from the ancient Britons, but yet it does still awaken a little interest when we are told that a number of gentlemen, seated at dinner in London, have transmitted toasts to the other side of the globe and received answers to them before rising from table. The President of the United States, indeed, had to post pone his acceptance of the toast, for he reminded those who asked him to drink it that the telegraph had outrun the sun, and that " the dinner-hour here is not arrived yet ; it is only five o'clock ; the sun is yet two hours high ;" and the whole series of messages which were sent over the continent of America and answered in the space of a dinner-time were calculated to bring clearly before us the full magnitude of the work to which Mr. Cyrus Field has so largely contributed. The Daily News declares it is gratifying to witness the ugerness which is now manifested in this country to recognise the services of those among our American kins men who have distinguished themselves either by their writings or their deeds. A year ago a brilliant company. 2omposed of men of every rank in life and school of thought, assembled to honour the victorious abolitionists of America in the person of Mr. Lloyd Garrison, their heroic leader. At this moment, controversies have been occa sioned by the desire to pay merited respect by proffering choice hospitality to Mr. Longfellow. The banquet just given to Mr. Cyrus Field is another mark of the same praiseworthy feeling. He is a type of the commercial spirit, rather than of the polities or the intel lect of America. To his energy the successful laying of the Atlantic cable is probably due. Others may have loosened their purse-strings and invested larger stuns in the undertaking than he did, yet if he staked his entire fortune on the success of the venture, he was more gene rous than the millionnaire who risked the thousands he could well spare. Others certainly furnished the scientific knowledge and displayed the practical skill without which no mechanical work can be prosecuted to a triumphant close, but to Mr. Field belongs the merit of stimulating those who were lukewarm and communicating his own well-founded convictions in the feasibility of the enterprise to men whose faith had waxed cold after repeated failures. The Standard deems that the process of Southern recon struction, as reconstruction is understood by the Repub lican party in Congress, may now be considered finished. By excluding all white citizens who took any part in the war from voting, and by allowing all black citizens to exercise the right of the suffrage without question, a new " Radical " Constitution has been passed in each State, and ratified according to the terms prescribed by Congress. The people who formerly possessed large wealth are now entirely broken down in means and spirit, and the negroes whom they once owned have the privilege of making laws for them. This is what is meant when it is stated that the Southern States have been fully restored to the Union. All danger of a Republican defeat is avoided by totally suppressing the voice of the class likely to appose extreme Republican principles. The supervision exercised over the Legislatures which adopted the new constitutions in the:Carolinas and their sister States was so thorough that even provisions for local taxation were modified. The general result is regarded with unqualified satisfaction by the Stevens and Butler party in the North, and the Radical journal anticipates that the Southern States will henceforth be more " advanced" than Massa :.husetts herself. Of the population which has been driven :rom the polls no one belonging to this party appears to take any account. The Telegraph calls attention to the fact that Mr. loebuck—the little leader of a party of one, and not Always sure of his only follower, himself—has been defend. ing his career down at Sheffield. He is always defending himself. He never tires of the theme, and he always proves to his own abundant satisfaction that on all occa sions he was right. In fact, he is a very great man. In 1866 he stayed in the House at the risk of his life to support Mr. Gladstot e. Then he "carried" the Reform Bill of last year, for" in the Houseof Commons great deference is paid to my opinions." Then, again, " Whigs now-a-days are Whigs and something more : I was something more when they were only Whigs." But this is too mild ; Mr. Roebuck always was, is, and will be " something more " than everybody ; he reminds us of Mr. Guppy's young friend who was "up to everthing, whatever it ;me" Then he obtained the Trades Union Commission. What a herculean task ! Considering that the present Covernment has issued commissions at the shortest notice on everything under the sun—and that if a Liberal mem- per merely coughs, a Minister starts up and sap " 'Would you like a commission ? '—we really cannot see that there was the least difficulty in originating one of the many wh:ch were authorised during the year. Then Mr. Roebuck says that he has " never eared for popularity " nor " pecuniary rewards." He "speaks out fairly and honestly," and he "only cams for truth !" What a wonderful man ! What an excelltnl zharacter ! A fooli.1:1 local person said, " It is impossible for yoti to work witli Mr. Gladstone." What was the 1% ply—the gracious reply— of the great man ? "Mr. Gladstone is now in a more likely groove to work with nte" —that's the true way to put it—" than ever he has been in his N% hole life up to the present hour." How very gratl• fying to Mr. Gladstone, and what a promise it holds out for the future ! Roebuck " &hewing the way," as he did, he says, " thirty-six years ago," and Mr. Gladstone at length converted to the true path ! A Berlin paper positively asserts that the Pano verintiF condemned for the crime of high fro tson hay Leer. I.o.l.'oned, and were set at liberty on Monday. That ceremony, all the more imposing for its formality, which follows the successful wars of Great Britain, has been, the Times remarks, performed in the two Houses of Parliament. The thanks of Lords and Commons were voted to Sir Robert Napier, Commodore Heath, and the officers and men of the army and navy engaged in the expedition to Abyssinia. The interest of the occasion was manifested by the full attendance of members, and by the presence of many visitors, some of these last being nearly connected with the brave men who received the nation's acknowledgments. Lady Napier herself was present to listen to the praises which her husband's ability and his distinguished services called forth. Of the speeches it may fairly be said that they were manly, generous, and well suited to the occasion. In these things it is difficult to avoid exaggeration and bombast ; the injustice of overstrained praise is often inflicted on those who have meritoriously served their country, and who have not the smallest desire to be placarded as incom• parable heroes. But the language of both Government and Opposition in this case was no more than every honest critic, British or foreign, will allow to have been well deserved by the General and his force. As Mr. Gladstone observed, there is something tame and feeble in the language of unbroken eulogy, and yet the occasion did not permit the use of any other. A war against a barbarous race must not be celebrated with the loftiness of expression which befits a triumph over enemies our equals in strength, civilisation, and science. But the praise in this case, though temperate, must be unmixed. All that had to be done in the war was well done, and we are entitled to say that there is no instance in our annals of an enterprise so novel and arduous having been carried out with such uniform success. The cordiality with which each speaker expressed himself will gratify all those engaged in the expedition, and will convince them that the thanks of both Houses were warmly given. The chiefs of the expedition will receive the rewards of their services, and never will rewards have been better merited. But the Times cannot let the opportunity of a vote of thanks pass without calling renewed attention to the bravery and good conduct of the soldiers and sailors, both European and Asiatic. Their work we know to have been arduous, and it is right to state that their willingness, their endurance, and their quickness to adapt themselves to the necessities of the campaign were beyond all praise. It has been said that the British soldier is a mere fighting machine, and that he requires to be placed easily and comfortably on the field of battle. It is alleged that he does not show dexterity in the work which must so often precede a battle, and which has scarcely a less influence than a battle on the fortunes of a war. But in this campaign it has been proved that this charge, like so many similar generalisations, has no basis in truth. All ranks showed remarkable readiness at the rough work of the campaign, and the Sepoy was as quick and willing as his European comra. le. ATTEMPTED TIME MURDER AND SUICIDE. A shocking case of attempted murder and suicide oc aurred at about half-past six o'clock on Thursday evening, ;n Liverpool. Whilst some persons were passing the windows of the counting-house of Messrs. Hikers, Whitley, and Co., coal merchants, James-street, they heard a great sreaking of glass and a cry of murder issuing from the premises, and at the same time a large piece of iron was Flung through the window. On gaining access to the room ;t was found that the managing clerk, Mr. Joseph Jones, had that afternoon been visited by his wife, and that :luring the interview an altercation arose. They ulti- mately came to blows, and he, snot-bing the handle of a letter press, beat her so violently • ith 't that she was for a time stunned. She, however, s, fa recovered herself as to be enabled to wrest the weapon from his hand, and she then threw it through the window, and it was this, together with her cries, that brought timely assistance, When the husband was questioned as to the cause of the disturbance, he immediately ran round to the back of the vounter, and, snatching a razor from the drawer, drew it across his throat, nearly severing his head from his body. Of course death was instantaneous. TERRIBLE SCENE AT TREBIZOND. TrebizondlM4 the scene of a horrible tragedy on the 7th ultimo. A letter from that place, dated the Bth June, says :—" A dreadful and unprecedented occurrence took place in Trebizond yesterday morning, which has spread consternation amongst the inhabitants. No fewer than seventeen persons fell victims to the attack of a madman in a few minutes. Of the attacked four died instanta neously, ten are mortally and three slightly wounded. Each person received but one blow in the chest, and that near the region of the heart. The assassin, who sometimes gives himself out for a Persian, sometimes for a Russian, and says at different times that he is a Christian and a Mussulman, is a man of about 50, small in stature, but of a robust constitution. He has been domiciled in Trebizond forabout four months, where he sold old iron in a stall in one of the most popu lous streets of the town. He commenced his butchery in the open day, about eight o'clock in the morning, using as his instrument of destruction a knife sharpened at both sides. Having fastened the knife to his wrist, the blade turned inwards, he walked the street in which he lived, striking at all those who came within his reach, taking care, after each stab, to conceal the knife,'so that his victims were at the moment in doubt who had attacked them. Men, women, and children fell alike under his murderous blows. It seems difficult to account for his conduct, except on the ground that he was seized with a sudden frenzy. Neither vengeance nor robbery could have been his motive. The time and place of the attack, as well as the fact that several of the victims were country people who had come to market, forbid such a supposition. He would have killed many more if he bad not received a blow of a stone on the head from a young man who perceived what he was at. This so stunned him that the bystanders were able to seize him and hand him over to the police." LAW AND POLICE. A LEGAL POINT WITH REGARD TO THE SMOKE NuisiNcE.--In Vice-Chancellor Stuart's court the case of Bendy v. Harvey has been heard. It raised a question whether the annoyance caused by domestic household smoke could constitute such a nuisance as to be restrained by the Court of Chancery. The plaintiff was lessee of a house at Torquay, which was f• t rrou ded by pleasure grounds, and commanded an extensive and picturesque view. The defendant purchased a house in close contiguity to the plaintiff's residence, which subsequently was pulled down, and au hctel erected on the site. The roof of the defen dant's old house was much lower than that of the hotel, and from the chimneys of the latter when the wind blew from a certain direction immense volumes of smoke were emitted, and seriously damaged the plaintiff's property. The Vice- Chancellor said that whichever waythe decisionwen t it would lie a great injury to the person against whom it was given. The plaintiff Lad no doubt sustained considerable damage; but inasmuch es the hotel had been finished in 186 G, and the bill had nut been filed till 1868, he was of opinion on the whole case that it was not one in which the court could interfere. The bill would be dismissed, but without costs, and without prejudice to any proceedings which the plaintiff might be advised to take in reference to any future injury or damage arising from the same causes. THE LAW 01' COPYRIGIIT.—In Vice-Chancellor Giffard's court, Messrs. Sampson Low and Co., publishers, applied for an injuction to restrain Messrs. Ward and Lock from publishing a cheap edition of the " Guardian Angel," by 'Wendell Holmes, of Boston, Ilrassachn setts. The book in question first appeared in a serial form in the Atlantic Monthly Magazine. In March of tlu year Professor Holmes entered into an agreement with the plaintiffs for the assignment to them of the copyright of the work, and for the purpose of ac quiring a British copyright—there being no international copyright treaty between England and the United States —went to reside at Montreal, in Canada, for some time previous to the first publication of the work in this country. In October 1567 (at which date the story was not com pleted in the numbers of the Atlantic Monthly, the plain tiffs, in pursuance of an agreement with the author, pub lished the "Guardian Angel" in two volumes, at the retail price of 16s. In April 1868, the defendants, Messrs. Ward, Lock, and 'Tyler, of Warwick House, Amen corner, in ignorance, as they stated, of any copyright claimed by the plaintiffs, or of the edition brought out by them, published from the pages of the Atlantic Monthly a 2s. reprint of the " Guardian Angel," and it was sought by the present bill to restrain this publication as an infringement of the copyright vested in the plaintiffs. The Vice-Chancellor said he had no doubt in his own mind about the case, as it had lately been settled by the House of Lords, in the case of Low v. Routledge, that an American who chose to go across the frontier into British territory acquired exactly the same rights in respect of copyright as if he were a British subject. The only substantial ground of defence was that there could not be copyright as to a part of a work only. But there were numerous cases in point chewing that the copyright might be separated and claimed for a portion of the work. MUTUAL ANNOYANCES.—In the same court the cause of Simpson v. Campbell was disposed of. The parties lived next door to each other, and the plaintiff had two pianos, one of which was played in the dining-room. The defendant objected, and said that the instrument ought only to be played in the drawing-room. The remonstrance having no effect, the defendant, as a counter annoyance, erected a machine which the plaintiff said made a most violent noise. As soon as his friends called the horrid din began, conversation being rendered impossible by the intolerable noise and vibrations. "You could not hearyour self speak ; crowds were collected outside ; the children were frightened out of their wits ; friends were driven away, and altogether the house was in a fair way to be rendered uninha bitable." The defendant on the other hand complained of the disturbance to his health and comfort, and interruption to his studies by the perpetual " strumming" on the piano. From six p.m. till midnight might he heard such familiar airs as " Not for Joseph," " Paddle your own canoe," " Champagne Charley," &c., shouted at the top of their voices, and thumped on the piano with derisive shouts of approval and roars of laughter. On Sundays the annoy ance attained an air of religious persecution by the " screaming of Hallelujahs for three hours with out intermission." On other days the plaintiff'slittle girls were in the habit of singing their morning carol (some organ-tortured air) at six a.m. to a drum accompaniment. The case was ultimately ordered to stand over, upon an undertaking by the plaintiff to remove the dining room piano into " the breakfast•room," and to place it on the side of the room opposite to the defendant's house, the defendant, in the meantime, undertaking not to perform upon his instrument SCARCITY OF WATER IN WEST SURREY.—The continued drought has dried up the ponds and brooks, and the greatest difficulty is experienced in procuring a supply for cattle. Some herds are driven three miles for water, and on the hill lands carts are employed to fetch it for the homesteads. ENTHRbNISATION OF THE BISHOP OF HERE ronD.—The enthronisation of the Right Rev. Dr. Atlay, Lord Bishop of Hereford, took place in Hereford Cathedral on Thursday. The general chapter of the cathedral met in the Chapter-house at a quarter past eleven, when the chapter clerk having read the Archbishop of Canterbury's mandate for the enthronisation, the dean and chapter decreed to proceed therein. The chapter then proceeded to divine service, and at the conclusion of the service the dean provided a luncheon in the college•hall, to which upwards of one hundred gentlemen and ladies sat down. The verdicts of juries are often curiously in opposition to the evidence, but it is very rare that we (.!et with a jury acting as one at Duch= I►us just done. At the sessions held in that ancient city this week, Ann Calder and Ann Moony were indicted for stealing seven shillings, the property of William Templeman, of South SI ields. At the close of the evidence the prisoners pleaded guilty, when the jury began to coi:sult among themselves, and, to the astonishment of the court, they returned a verdict of "na guilty." The attention of the jury was then drawn by the bench to the fact that the pris ners had pleaded guilty, and bad alsa been previously convicted, The jury, however, adhered to their verdict, a , v3 the prisoners were accordingly diseitaged, THE CHINESE EMBASSY. THE FUTURE OF ABYSSINIA. Some important correspondence with the Com mander-in-Chief of the Abyssinian Expedition has been published to-day. It includes a despatch from Sir H. Napier to the Secretary of State for India, received on the 19th ult., dated from the Com mander-in-Chief's Office, Political Department, Camp, Dildee, 30th April. Sir li. Napier, revert ing to the events which took place at Magdala, and in its neighbourhood, writes : " Anxious as I felt to abstain from further in terference in Abyssinian affairs after the object of the expedition had been attained, yet it was neces sary, for the sake of our national credit, that due consideration should be shown for the large num bers whose interests and safety had centred in Theodore's existence, and who remained dis armed and unprotected, and exposed to merciless plunder and slaughter at the hands of the will tribes which circumstances had, for the moment, converted into our allies. The disposal of the fortress of Magdala first de :landed attention. This strong position is situated geographically in the country of the Wollo Gallas, from whom it was finally wrested by Theodorus about ten years ago. In his hands it has imposed an effectual check upon encroachments of the Gallas on Christian Abyssinia. I desired, in the interests of Christianity, to place the stronghold in possession of Wagshoom Gobazeh, the de facto ruler and principal chief of this por tion of Abyssinia. But when I had sent for his lieutenant, the Dajaz Mashashah, the latter ex cused himself, in his master's name, from accepting, the charge, alleging as his reason that it would re quire so large a garrison to hold it that it would be a source of weakness rather than of strength. Wagshoom Gobazeh himself, notwithstanding his repeated invitation to u', through Briadier-General Merewether, C. 8., to COlll3 quickly to his aid, had removed himself an' his army to a dis tant quarter before our arrival, in pursuit of objects of his own, and it was impos sible for me to await a reply to the letter which I addressed to him on the subject of Mag dala. I therefore destroyed the gates of the fort, burned everything on the mountain that was com bustible, and abandoned it. Several claimants for its possession had, in the meantime, addressed me regarding it. One of these was the Chief of Daoout, a small territory lying adjacent to Mag dala. I . Verkait, one of the two rival queens of the Gallas, had also put forward her claims, as likewise had Masteeat, the other and more powerful of the Galla queens. " At the time when the disposal of Magdala was thus exciting so many hopes and desires, the widowed Queen of Theodore and her son were brought down iu safety from the mountain, and placed within the protection of my camp; the removal of the disarmed garrison and released native I risoners was at the same time in progress. Shortly after the arrival of Werkait's letter solicit ing that the fortress 'night be delivered to her, the lady presented herself at my pickets. Although it was evening, she was immediately admitted to as interview, and allowed to represent her claims. She was geeatly affected in revisiting a locality which had been associated with so many. misfortunes to her family and people. She remarked to me, fought with Theodore as long as we could, and when his power was too strong for us to resist any longer, my son submitted to him, on receiving a promise of good treatment; notwithstanding which he was inhumanly cut to pieces, and thrown over the precipice of Magdala ; and now I have come to see the grave of my euemy Theodore, and the place where my son fell.' "At this time the offer of the fortress had been made to Gobazeh's lieutenant, and his answer had not yet been received. Mtglala was still the scene of military operations while our troaps were en gaged in destroying Theodore's cannon, and the exodus of its former inhabitants continued in full progress. Therefore it was not thought expedient that Werkait's wish to ascend the mountain should be indulged at such a time. Altu3st before her story was conchs lel, ia tiinatian was received that her rival Masteeat was also in the neighbourhood, and on her way to offer her congratalations and submit her claim. A`, first I hoped to be able to make peace between these two rival queens ; but when this was hinted at to Werkait, she said, Witea two pe rsons are striving for a crown, how can peace be mad e between them ? If Masteeat were t 3 make peace with me to-day, before you, she would betray Ille to-morrow.' The news of Masteeat's approach caused great uneasiness amongst Werkait's escort and adherents; and after a second interview with me, during which she exhibited symptoms of mach distress, she took a hasty departure, apprehensive lest she should be intercepted by her more power ful and more fortunate rival ; more fortunate because her son is alive, and the centre of th e h opes of a large body of the people ; while to po or Wer kait there remains only the memory o f h er son, so treacherously slain by Theodore. Suit a bl e presents were made to her, as she took her leave ; and s h ort l y after her departure, Masteeat arrived with h er y the t o late our request king to could closeLave all son, Eman Ahmad, and expressed no s ma ll grati tude and rejoicing at Theodore's fall. She h a d re sponded very eff he ec i t h ual avenues by w escaped, and thus she came to us in the re quest for the possession of Magdala I was able to answer that, Gobazeh's lieut enant cha racter of an established ally. To her having declined to receive it, I would aban don the place, after dismantling is and burn ing all of it that could be so destroyed, as a mark of the anger of the British at the ill-treatment of our countrymen, as well as of our abhorrence of the cruelties which Theodore had committed there. To this the Queen replied that indeed nothing but fire could purify it. On my asking her if she could make peace with Werkait, she answered that she would gladly do so, but that it was impossible ; because if Werkait were to swear friendship on the Koran itself to-day, she would violate her oath to morrow. (Front the Anylo-Awn:can Timeg) This mission has excited great interest in the United States. They are ambassadors from a na tion embracing a third of the human race; one with whom the United States on its Pacific shores will be allied as neighbours, interchanging commodities, and acting and re-acting on each other to an ex tent perhaps now little appreciated. The fact that Anson Burlingame, himself an American, has been selected as head of an Embassy to represent abroad the most exclusive, prejudiced, and conceited of all peoples, is a high compliment to the Republic. He was born in New Berlin, New York, on the 14th of November, 1822. When quite young, he accom panied his father to the " Western Reserve," Ohio, and afterward to Michigan, before its admission to the sisterhood of States. From the Branch Univer sity, of which he entered the Harvard University Law School, under Justice Story, where he took the degree of LL.B., and coannenced the practice of law at the Old State House, Boston, in partnership with Mr. Briggs, son of the late Governor Briggs of Massachusetts. In 1848 Mr. Burlingame entered the political arena in sup port of the Free Soil movement, and afterward became identified with the Republican party. Soon after taking his degrees at the Law School he be came a member of the Senate of Massachusetts, and was chairman of the committee appointed to accom pany Kossuth in his New England tour. He was afterwards a delegate, from the town of North boro', to the Constitutional Convention, together with Governor Boutwell, Charles Sumner, and R. 11. Dana, junior. In 1853 he was elected to the National House of Representatives, and served six years as a representative of Boston and Cambridge. His celebrated speech denouncing the assault pon Charles Sumner brought him prominently before the public as a champion of the Anti-Slavery move ment. He was rendered still more conspicuous by the affair with Preston S. Brooks, of South Caro lina, whose challenge he accepted, and chose the rifle as his weapon. Mr. Burlingame was skilled in the use of that instrument of destruction, but Lai no opportunity of exhibiting his prowess, as the challenger failed to insist upon the combat. Mr. Burlingame was very active in the political cam paign of 1856 to 1860, and shortly after the inaugu ration of Mr. Uncoils the latter tendered hint the mission to Austria. The Government of Austria de clined to receive him, in consequence of his action in behalf of the doctrine of the "Unification of Italy," and Mr. Burlingame was appointed to repre sent the United States in China, a mission that he has fulfilled to the satisfaction of both Governments. The Embassy arrived at the Metropolitan Hotel, Washington, June 1, and flung out to the breez the immense Chinese flag, pennant-shaped, bear ing a huge dragon, with Chinese characters in black upon a white ground, presented by the Emperor as the special colours of the Embassy. After delivering the Emperor's letter to the President the Embassy visited the Hall of the Representatives, Mr. Burlingame responding to the Speaker's ad dress of wel ome, as follows :—" Mr. Speaker, on behalf of my associates and myself, I thank you fur this warns and unusual reception. It transcends all personal compliments. It is the greeting of one great people by another. It is the Oc cident and the Orient, for the first time in that electric contact whose touch 'makes the whole world kin.' It is tit? meeting of two civilizations, which have hitherto revolved in separate spheres. It is a mighty revolution. Let us hope, sir, that it will go on without those convulsions which are too apt to mark great changes in human affairs. Let us hope that it will be achieved without the shed ding of one drop of human blood. We are for peace. We come not with the beat of the drum, nor martial tread, though representing the latent power of 80,000,000 of fighting men. We are the heralds of good will. We ask for China that equa lity without which nations and men are degraded. We seek not only the good of China, but seek your good and the good of all mankind. We do this in no sentimental sense. We woul lbe practical, as the toiling millions whom we represent. We vite you to broader trade ; we invite you to a more inti mate examination of the structure of Chinese civili zation ; we invite you to a better appreciation of the manners of that people, their temperance, their patience, their habits of scholarship, their competitive examinations, their high culture of tea acrd silk ; and we shall ask fur them,!from you, modern science, which has taken its great development within the memory of man and the holy doctrine of our Chris tian faith. It is for the West to say what our re ception shall be. It is for the West to say whether or not it was sincere when it continued for a long time to invite China to more intimate relations with it. It is for the West to say whether it is for a fair and open policy, or for one founded on prejudice and on that assumption of superi ority which is justified neither by physical ability nor by moral elevation. The people of the United States have responded through their Executive, and through this House, and through their Speaker, with an unanimity and a nobility of sentiment which makes me proud of the civilization in which I was reared and glad to see it passed in review by the scholars and statesmen of China. I trust, sir, that the American people will abide by that sentiment, and hope that it is but an earnest of that which will meet us on the shores of the dis tant seas and on the banks of the beautiful rivers which you, sir, have named. Thanking the House for this reception, and you, sir, for the felicitous and able manner in which you. have expressed its welcome, we wait such further action as the pro prieties of the occasion may require. (Applause and clapping of hands by the members on the floor and by the spectators in the galleries." O❑ the 9th a great State dinner was given them at the White House, but Mr. Sumner did not attend, though chairman of the Senate Committee of Foreign Affairs, and formally invited by his dear friend Andrew Johnson, but Reverdy Johnson one of the committee did, and General Banks, Chairman of the House Committee, was among the guests. On the 10th the Chinese visited Mount Vernon, under the guidance of Mr. M'Cnlloch, who ordered a revenue steamer to be fitted up, and invited a party to meet them. They spent some hours in wandering about the grounds in the old mansion and at the tomb, and returned after a day all the " A list of the principal political prisoners liberated by us on our occupation of M igdala is appended. An opportunity was taken of receiving all of them who desired an interview with me, and advice suitable to their several circumstances was then tendered to them. Booroo Gooshoo, the Prince of Godjam, was- the first who was intro more enjoyed, from the surprising knowledge they displayed of the great military operations which have made the name of the Potomac renowned in story, as well as an intimate acquaintance with the life of the patriot. Nor was this lessened by copious libations, as they have shown the fascina tion champagne has for the celestials, who solemnly toss off the lively, dancing, sparkling wine. They take much interest in mechanical and scientific iiven• tions, and devote a portion of their time to a grave study of the subject, though their curiosity some times betrays them into a forgetfulness of their impassive dignity. One of the questions brought Officially to their attention is the feasibility as well as desirability of introducing China into the inter national system of coinage. Considering that ex change is there transacted by weight of metal, and not by stamped coin, no great difficulty could be experienced, particularly as foreign barter is con fined almq,:t wholly to a very limited and wealthy class. One of the first visits of the Embassy will be to Cuba, to inquire into the traffic in coolies, which from time to time has excited public attention by the horrible catastrophes to which it has given rise. It is absolutely necessary for a Mandarin of rank and authority to have the power of investigating cases of kidnapping in Peru, in Chili, in Cuba, and in Brazil. The deception an.] the force by which the coolies are often dragged from their homes, and the cruel treatment to which duced. He bore in his enfabled frame the marks o 14 years spent in captivity. It is probable that God jam, which has generally formed a separate princi pality, will now become subject to this chief.

TkIE SUN, LO N C ON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 3, 1865, TILE JVAR IN PARAGUAY: " SI,ANG IVA NGING." The news from the Brazils and the River Plate via Bordeaux, per Guienne, gives some further de tails of the very disturbed state of these. countries. The war in Paraguay still continued, although, ac cording to Brazilian accounts, Marshal Lopez has celled out the women to serve as soldiers. We hear that several very heavy engagements have taken place in the Chaco. The Brazilians have, after a most sanguinary and desperate fight, protected by their fleet, been able to take a redoubt in the Chaco, in which over one thousand on both sides have been put hors de coinsat, and the whole of the foreign legion of the Argentine Confedera tion, with few exceptions, have been cut to pieces by the Paraguayans. General barrios was coming up at the last moment with a force estimated at from 5,000 to 7,000 men. All this does not look as if Lopez required to call out his patriotic coun trywomen, who had really offered their services to their President. llumaita is reporte 1 to be now entirely invested by the Allies, but is so well provided that the garrison of that fortress is well prepared to stand a long siege. The Buenos Ayres Standard of May 12th says :—" It is to be expected that the Commander-in-Chief, Marshal Caxias, will not waste months and years in trying to starve out a garrison which should only get an hour's time to surrender. The Allied army numbers close on 40,000 strong, and is aided by the finest fleet of ironclads ever known in these waters. Against such a powerful force is opposed a garrison of from 2,000 to 3,000 men, or at most 5,000. The place is now fully invested, and the public has a right to demand that the attack will, without further delay, be at once ordered. The fall of llnunaita must be the termination of this prolonged war. The Allies cannot attempt to fol low Lopez into the interior, or measure swords with a pack of women cruelly marched out to fight. We trust that mediation or intervention, by the Foreign Powers, will be afforded so as to bring the hostilities in the River Plate to a summary con clusion. In the absence of mediation or interven tion the struggle seems hopeless, and none can at tempt to place a limit on the duration of this ill starred campaign. As lately the reinforcements from Brazil to the seat of war have very much fallen off, the assertions of the Standard, based on past experience, seem to be correct. It may be interesting to our readers to hear that all the British subjects in Paraguay arc alive and well. The interior of the Argentine provinces are still given up to revolution and bloodshed, and a general break up of the Confederation was expected under the pretext of the Presi dential election. General Urquiza bas again been elected Governor of Enter Rios, awl is the fore most candidate for the Presidency, but stoutly opposed by the Buenos Ayres carnarilla of President . Mari! and his proti'jj . Elisalde. Tire news horn Montevideo is in every respect highly unsatisfac tory. A monetary crisis was hourly expected, which, it was feared, would force several of the banks to susp, , a 1. Gal I was at 16 per cant. pre mium. It was very much doubted that the banks would return specie payment on the Ist Jane as de creed by law, and in the meantime were issuing paper money ad To ad I to this disturbed state of the commercial world another revolution had broken out, and a chief of the Colorado party, Colonel Maximo Perez, was actually march ing at the head of over 1,000 men against Monte video. Some of the local papers accuse Brazil to be at the bottom of all this. From Rio de Janeiro we have news up to June 1. Exchange on England had again fallen to 17d., which does not look as if any favourable news had been received from Para guay. The Emperor's speech deplores that the war in Paraguay is not yet finished, that the American mediation was not accepted, that the servile element has been the subject of assiduous study, and at the proper time (when?) the Govern ment would submit a suitable proposition. The report of the Alinister of Finance shows a deficit of $74,000,000. " Slaugwanging" is usually supplemented by fisticuffs ; and as " slangwanging" has bcoms: quite the fashion in England, fisticuffs is now ex tensively practised. Mr. Douneley is a represen tative in the former art, and General Butler has few equals—but there is here also an establishment which turns out first-rate professors, and if they continue to progress so favourably, Colum bia will have no advantage in this respect over cousin Britannia. The House of Commons is becoming a bear-garden, an example other assemblies have not been slow to follow. ' In Guild hall, on Monday, the Lord Mayor presided over a meeting called to enable the citizens to state their opinions upon the Dis-establisment of the Irish Church Bill. The room was densely crowded, and the way the people took of expressing their senti ments was by howling, hooting, cheering, and hiss ing. A resolution was offered and an amendment moved, but nothing could be heard in the uproar. A placard with the word Amendment printed on it was handed to Alderman Sir William Rose, who placed it on his hat, when some one snatched at it, which Sir William resisted, and resulted. A (I,:s -perate struggle ensued, and the platform became the scene of a free fight. The war raged around the Lord Mayor, who received a heavy blow in the stomach. Then was seen the extraordinary spectacle of Churchmen assembled to express an opinion on a Church question, hitting wildly out right and left, and a show even more curious in a body of London aldermen pitching. into each other in a ring or platform surrounded by their fellow citizens. The heavy blow on the sto mach appears, as might well have been expected, to have doubled the Lord Mayor up, the stomach of that dignified functionary being perhaps less adapted than those of ordinary morta's for such experi ments. Aldermen are known to strain their diges tive powers to the utmost ; and a citadel thus as sailed within, cannot be expected to bear an outside attack. A punch is all very well when administered as a liquid to a Lord Mayor after turtle soup, but a punch as thus administered must have been resented in the highest degree in the interior. Sir Wm. Rose received two blows in the chest, but there an alder- man is comparatively secure, the vulnerable place not being searched out with the malignity exhibited towards his lordship. The alderman who got tapped on the head showed great powers of endurance, for the Board is known to be solid in that locality. From this truly Christian scene we may carry our readers to the banks of the Thames, where the Vo lunteers in wild confusion were endeavouring to cross the bridge at Datchet. General Lindsay or dered the 19th Middlesex Rifles to deploy a com pany across the path to stop the rush, but the path of the gallant Volunteers was not thus to bs barred, so the company was set upon, and Colonel Hughes, who tried to restore order, was threatened with being pulled from his horse. General Lindsay, who rode up, was hissed and hooted, and driven pell meal off the field for rating the men, while Colonel Wright, the Deputy-Inspector of Reserve Forces, was pushed into the river. At Aldershott an officer of the CarabLueers, according to the Army and Navy Gazette, amused himself last week by knock ing out four of the teeth of a brother officer, beat ing his nose flat on his face, and destroying the sight of one of his eyes, at the very moment, too, when the artiste who undertakes to repair such damages and t o make people " beautiful for ever" had been conunitted for trial. The Pall Mall Gazette, in noticing this affair, makes a greater mistake than au American paper in discussing the 33rd Regiment. It speaks of the Carabineers as having been :made fatuous by the courts-martial at Mhow and Aldershott, whereas it was the Inniskilling Dragoons. The Pall Mall is perhaps not aware that thse Gth Dragoon Guards arc the Carabineers, who had no more to do with the court martial at Mb ow than the Pall Mall had ; and the 6th Dragooyas are the Inniskillings, the num ber being flap.: same, but the regiments wholly dif ferent. Thi New I orlo Citizen alluded to the 33d as the Irish _Regiment which did the whole fighting in Abyssinia,. We never heard of the 33d as an Irish regiment, nos • did they ever themselves, although there may NI a good many Irishmen in it. But the Li:Acuff:llg does not seem to be confined to Guildhall and the mess-rooms, for the enterprisiog officers sometimes carry their operations into the streets and make the myrmidons of the law them selves the victims in default of others of her Ma esty's lieges. A case has just been heard in Dublin, by which it appears that two young officers of the Guards have been knocking policemen down and banging them about, and not content with this taking the law of them to). Nor are the precincts of the great Landon Clubs secure. Oily this week, at one of the greatest of these establish ments, twe visitors by accident tact in the hall, flew at each other, and flattened noses and spilled " claret" till forcibly separated. It is becoming, as we observed, quite the fashion, and we presume will be f3llowed by duelling, unless the law be sternly enforced, for men begin by loosening re straint, whence arises slangwanging, and .proceed to fisticuffs, and then to pistols. Society should not permit its rules to be violated with impunity. If peiple, as a body, do not visit with dis pleasure those who outrage the rules of decorum, individuals are compelled to defend themselves, for the law cannot reach all such cases, and the natural end is the revival of the old system of self-defence. The House of Commons leading in this laxity, its example will be quickly followed, and one of the accomplishments necessary to a - gentleman will be come the art of boxing. —Anglo-American Times. MONEY —No. 3. (From the Anglo-American, Times.) We have fully shown that Senator Sherman's as sertion that the pound sterling had decreased in 30d years 600 per cent. is really under the mark, and the facts brought forward by the Hon. David A. Wells would lead to the conclusion that at least in the United States, labour, as measured in coin, had within the last few years risen so prodigiously as to show a very heavy fall in the value of money. But though the labourer in the United States now receives far more in wages thau he did before the War, we doubt whether a dollar to him then was not in its purchasing power worth more than two now, and that therefore if his wages have but in creased GO per cent. he is in reality a loser. In this we see the real cause of discontent illustrated by trade unions and strikes, and the poor English agri culturist who trusted to the tender mercies of his employer has found his earnings dwindle to a star vation scale owing to the medium of payment being operated on by the simple law which reduces the value of an article by increasing its quantity. The' fall in the value of money is not so apparent in England as elsewhere. Within the lifetime of the present generation Parliament has introduced a system of taxation and a tariff which has proved in the highest degree beneficial to the country. The effect of free trade has be !n to cheapen materially the necessaries of life, and it has been supplemented by the skill of the inventor and the enterprise infused into commerce by un shackling industry. Steam has worked powerfully in cheapening produce, and its aid has been more called into play in England than in any other coun try. Putting the hundreds of minor ways in which it is applied aside, and glancing at the single method of weaving, we find every article we wear, from the cradle to the grave, reduced in cost to an extent that would be scarcely credible to our fathers. But it is in its application to transport that the benefits are best seen. Let any person try to picture to himself what the result would be it the locomotive was suddenly p iralyzed. Let him imagine, if he can, a return to the days of sailing vessels and stage coaches, and an idea would be suggested how it happens that England has re mained comparatively stationary, while the cost of living in other countries has so enormously in creased. The effect of a railroad is to equalize the prices over the country, making a market for every thing saleable and checking all waste. A great take of fish in Cornwall, in Wales, even in Ireland, puts a cheap herring or mackerel on the table of a Cockney, counteracting the state of things which before prevailed, when an article at the same time was unsaleable iu one locality and unobtainable in another. The agriculturist, of course, benefits more than the manufacturer as a rule, for his pro duce is mcre perishable, more bulky and heavy in proportion to value, and the city therefore profits to a greater degree than the country, the chief gainers being the extremities of the king lore and its heart. The tendencies of this huge power being to equalize prices over the world, and to render the greatest service to a centre of life and commerce, introducing with speed, ease, and security bulky and perishable produce, it follows that England, which may be said to be the heart of the world, will profit more than other lands. And so it has proved, for the effect has been to raise pt ices in distant places, and lessen prices in London. The circumstances are then exceptional which have kept under the cost of the necessaries of life in Great Britain, and have deceived the Eng lish into the notion that money has not fallen as predicted since the discovery of the Australian and Californian gold mines. Really to see the effect the English must go abroad, and we care not what country they select, to a lesser or greater degree the cost of living in it will be found to have increased. It is so throughout France, and notably in Paris. In Germany to a lesser degree, in Italy, and even in Spain and Portugal. In Egypt the rise in prices has been most marked ; in India it is a subject of astonishment alike to native and European. A man can only live at the trading stations iu China who can expend what elsewhere is a competence. Aus tralia and New Zealand from being cheap countries have become expensive, and in America even the great increase in a labourer's wages leaves him a loser. While invention and good legislation were working conjointly for the advantage of England, an exceptional circumstance materially aided in preventing a great decline in the value of money. The American War deranged the commerce of the world, throwing the production of the staple next in importance to that of corn into the hands of Eastern nations, who would grow cotton only in exchange for coin. The gold productions of Aus tralia were intercepted at Galle and absorbed in India. Europe, more especially France, was swept of its silver, and the influx of treasure went on for months at the rate of a million sterling a week into Hindoostan. The effect for the time was to neu tralize the production of California and Australia ; and as the Hiudoo made bangles of, or buried, his money, it was at least to a certain extent withdrawn from circulation. Notwithstanding, the revolution produced in India was considerable ; the price of everything rising enormously, more especially wages ; that is, the country became glutted with the precious metals, and their value of course de clined. This shows that India is not such a sponge as people believed, and being pretty well saturated the influx has ceased, and an accumulation greater than ever before seen is going on at the great centres of London, Paris, and New York. Doubt. less means will be found of dissipating the hoards; first probably in profitable trade and industry, and afterwards in wild and thriftless speculation. But the effect must be felt soon in the rapid decline in the value of money. Other disturbing causes may arise, such as a great European war, which may again retard the accumulation and consequent fall in the purchasing power of gold and silver. But as the metals are not lost though distributed, the ultimate effect is to make the fall more speedy when times of security return, and they are again brought into operation. We believe that we are now experiencing this reaction after the American war, though slowly, owing to the fact that the Hindoo and the Egyptian hold fast to the coin they get, and it is thus removed from circulation. The yield of the mines of the Pacific States will soon come with great effect into play for two years hence. Nevada will be enabled to send its silver by the loco motive to New York or to San Francisco, and the mining districts from the base of the Rocky Moun tains to the base of the Sierra Nevada will be penetrated by rail. Already steamers ply on the Colorado, and the mines of New Mexico, Arizona, Lower California, and Utah will have a cheap and rapid means of transport. The effect will be pro digious, and will cause a great disturbance in values. Those who have fixed incomes, and those who have loaned money to be returned hereafter in the course of years, will suffer, and perhaps to an equal extent in England, where they have hitherto been so for tunate in the exceptional causes we have enume rated. Even now the ric in the value of real pro perty is .marked ; also in wages, in meat, and in bread. What we maintain is that the disturbance which has hitherto been slow in Great Britain will hereafter be accelerated, and that a change is now in progress which will soon be realized disagreeably by numerous families. GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN. Last Saturday Mr. Train was again before the Irish insolvency judge (Miller), when it was stated by counsel on his behalf that the total amount of the Ebbw Yale Company's debt was £503, the rest being costs and interest. Mr. Train did not know what became of the iron of the street rails after they were condemned. He never got a s%illing of the proceeds. Ile had offered to pay the expen , _;es of the manager of the Ebbw Yale Company if ha came over as a witness, but he ref used. The money he had obtained as promoter of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway was what was settled on his wife after the London tramway debts and the Ebbw Vale debt had been deducted by Mr. AP Henry. Mr. Train was president of the Credit Fancier of America, in which he had but a single share for $l,OOO, on which $2OO had been paid. It was given to qualify him. The judge being still not satisfied with the schedule, adjourned the matter once more until Tuesday, Mr. Train expressing much regret, as he would have wished to sail (to-mor row Sunday) in the Scotia, "to be present at the July convention." He was returned to the Marshalsea, to continue the story of his life now so happily commenced in the New York World. lie heads this, " Train making an attempt upon his life." Calculating the difficulty how to begin, and with my Ben Butler eye on the Manager's immortal, I might commence thus :—" I was born at the age of twenty-one without parents, and had it not been for a kind Providence, and a few other friends, I should have been as ignorant as the common people, or even as you, gentlemen. The fact is, lam not up to this work ; naturally sensitive, constitutionally diffident, with a shrinking from the public gaze since my earliest infancy, I can hardly muster up courage to write_ about myself. But y o u h ave as ked it, and it ma y h e lp t o use - up my dreary life in jail." The family were Methodists, living for generations under the same old ancestral roof in Waltham, Massachusetts. The New England Conference used to meet there. You will see the old farm house, in the preface of Stevens' History of Methodism —Stevens, of the Zion's Herald, who so many times has been to the home of my childhood, and drank from that old oaken bucket that hangs in the well. My mother was a beautiful woman. My, father was a man of intellect and education. That accounts, ete.—modesty forbids. * * * My name being Train is purely accidental. A young man of fortune and elegant manners was reputed to be engaged to my mother. lie was goilig to New Ocleaus. He introduced my father with the request that he would show her all the attention he could during his absence. Ile did so, and, to the, astonish ment of his Southern friend, married her, which coincidence accounts for my name being Train, otherwise it would have been Fiske, and all the stock prices, stock poetry, stock names, such as Train oil,' Lightning Train,' Express Train,' Train off the track,' and so forth, would have been lost to fame. Boston was my n lave city. I Apologise for it. I was born in a small front house in High-street, now occupied by twenty-five Irish fami lies. How soon will the sons of St. Patrick oc cupy the mansions of the children of the Pilgrims." In 1856 the New York herald thus sketched his career. " George Francis Train was the oldest sou of Oliver Train, who, for many years prior to his decease, was a successful merchant in the City of Boston, where his son George was born. In the year 1832 or 1833 Oliver Train removed, with his family, consisting of his wife ant three children, from Boston to the City of New Orleans. During the first year of his residence at the South the yellow fever prevailed in its most aggravated form, and among its victims the entire family of Oliver Train was numbered, with the isolated exception of the subject of this notice. After Mr. Train had buried the whole of his family but George, and a short time before his own death, in the hope of saving his only remaining child from a similar fate, he committed him to the care of a captain of a sailing vessel bound to Boston from the port of New Orleans, to be restored to the surviving relatives of his deceased mother. Thus, at the tender age of four years, bereft of father, mother, brother and sister, this friendless child in a strange land commenced the voyage of life alone. Though too young, perhaps, to be much influenced in character by the unpro pitious and forlorn circumstances in which his career began, yet his subsequent life, successful in an eminent degree, and unmindful of difficulties, which, however formidable to others, serve but to stimulate him to conquer them, seems to give evi dence that the severe training of his childhood had given him strength, hardihood and resolution. Arriving in safety at the city of his birth, after a protracted voyage of many weeks, he was com mitted to the care of his grandmother on the ma ternal side, who then resided and still resides at Waltham, Massachusetts, and by whom he was reared with tenderness and a watchfulness that could only be looked for from the mother that gave him birth. This venerable woman, who still survives to witness the success of her protege, gave him the advantage of all the education which at that day was to be acquired in a New England town." George Francis gives a touching picture of his childhood in New Orleans, written with a power that shows, when he chooses to be rational, how great the talent is he does in truth possess. If all his loose joints were well screwed together, and ceased to rattle in that plaguey ridiculous way when he got into motion, he would have taken a very different position in his country. Without a par ticle of real sympathy by blood, or any other bond, he desires to walk on the shoulders of the Irish into the Presidential Chair, and he pursues this infatuated idea with a waste of toil, talent, and energy, which, well directed, would make any other person's fortune. After abusing England to his heart's content, he expects to be received by Englishmen with outstretched hand. Otherwise, what could have induced him to brave the lion in his den on the Liverpool Stock Exchange. There are only two ways in which he can be received in Eng land, either with indignation, or with curiosity. He has too much talent and energy, however misdi rected, to be treated with contempt. We are sorry he was not permitted to leave, as he desired, by the Scotia, for we are curious to see what his influence among the Irish in America really is. But the It-- publicans need not hug themselves on the prospect of seeing the Irish vote split in favour of George Francis Train. Births.
