to effect within a week a settlement of these Spa- 1, Star says, is that Austria and Italy may find at last that
nish claims more just and satisfactory than any 'as • mere question of arithmetic it would be cheaper to
. settle the dispute by a short and decisive war than to bear
that can be obtained by brute force
the protraction of so costly an armed trues as the present.
This is the one great danger overhanging Italy—the alter-
native of war or a shattered demos.

G gust credit is due to the French Government
for the anxious haste with which it has arrested
the enthusiasm of some indiscreet foreign eulogists,
who, not content with describing the economies
about to be effected in the French military esti-
mates as a " disarmament," were loudly calling
upon every other Power to follow the Elam:nes
sublime example of pacific abnegation. It appears
from the explanations of the Moniteur that the
eventual reduction in the actual fighting strength
of the French army will amount in round
numbers to ten thousand men ; and that it
is the cad of certain corps that are to disappear,
not the corps themselves ; the rank and file being
not disbanded, but drafted into other similar
corps. The financial result of this ingenious opera-
tion will, it is calculated, represent something like a
saving of 500,0001. Such, according to the latest
official corrections, is the sum and substance of 11
M. FOULD'S victory, which it should seem has
not been achieved without • contest, if we may
judge by the eagerness with which the Moniker
comes forward to appease the murmurs of the
barracks. Of 51. FOULD'R sincere purpose of
retrenchment in the military estimates, as au act
of general policy and of financial urgency, there
i be no doubt. But how difficult, if not
im-
possible, it is for such a power as the Second
Empire to renounce the luxury of superfluous
bayonets we may learn from this imposing " dis-
armament," which resolves itself into a gradual
reduction, in the course of two years, of ten
thousand in an army of five hundred thousand

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.

(THIS DAY.)

TIN MINISTRY.
The Daity News announces with much satislitc.
Lion that Mr. Meehan yesterday accepted the office of Vice
President of the Board of Trade. Thi•
appointment will be
regarded out of doors as a sign that the ranks of the govern-
ment are open to superior merit, and as an evidence that
the course about to be followed by the administration is
such as a courageous and progressive liberal can approve.
The retirement of Sir Robert Peel, though he has some
of those personal qualities which are relied on by the tories
for the ultimate pacification of Ireland, may be said to
have been required by the general consent of opinion. It
is not for the liberals to rely on men rather than measures.
Besides the wane humour which constituted his sole
qualiticaties for governing • people, one of whose lead.
lug characteristics is a proud and almost exaggerated wog.
tisane's, led him by an unerring instinct to run counter to
every principle which he ought to have respected,
and every prejudice wire& be ought to have coooiliated.
He was a favourite of the Irish orangemen, and the revolt
of his appointment, until Lord Palmerston caused him to
become a cypher in the government, was the absolute &lies.
ellen of the Irish vote from the liberal party. It would
hardly have been possible to have made • more satisfac-
tory selection for the office than Mr. Chichester Fortesene,
and the life:epee from it, aa far as it goes, is that Lord
Rumen is deterroised to take in hand the grievances usder
which Ireland still labours, with a serious purpose of re-
moving them.
Sir Robert Peel's management of Irish affairs, in the
opinion of the Star, was only to be regarded ae a sort of
broad practical joke, a piece of political horse-play, and
Mr. Chichester Fortsocue seems to have been invited to
succeed him on the same principle of contrast which sug-
gested Sir Robert himself as a successor to Mr. CardwelLhe
Mr. Forteecue is a UM of decided ability and judgment ;
is cool, flexible, and apparently fall of resources, while he is
uniformly courteous, considerate, sod tolerant. Mr.
Goschen's appointment, too, must be regarded with uni-
versal satisfaction. But the work of reconstruction is far
from complete. It is in the cabinet that the existence and
claims of the liberal petty below the gangway ought sr
chilly to be recognised.

THE JAMAICA nanomincrios.
The Times hopes that the statement from Jamaica, con-
tained in yesterday's telegrams from America, is but a
repetition of former reports. Net we canaot forget that
news reaches us more quickly through America than from
Jamaica direct, sad that the last letters from the
colony were still full of anxiety. It mast need all the
bravery as well as all the intelligeoce of the superior race to
impart coofirlence or security to 50,000 whites surrounded
in • negro insurrection by 300,000 black'. The Tunes can-
not prevail upon itself to criticise too severely the pro-
ceedings, or rather the language, of the people driven to
this desperate battle, and will wait to learn the permissions
by which the negroes were impelled to this treasonable and
murderous plot.
The Pool thinks it certain that the recent catutrophe
will tend to sow distrust between the races. It will cause '
additional expenditure both to the islands and to the
mother country for naval and military forces ; and many
persous—always excepting those who have petted, spoiled,
sod almost worshipped the black man—will come to the
conclusion that the negroes, as a race, are not yet fit for
the exercise of those privileges which may be safely accorded
to Anglo-Sexons.
The Herald now learns with much pleasure that the
bloody explosion of rebellion at Monett Bay does not seem
to have been connected with any general organisation of
the blacks throughout the island. Still it ought not to be
necessary to argue that it was imperative to make a stern
example of those who had commenced operations by a
wholesale massacre cheracterised by diabolical cruelty, and
it is wonderful that the Spectator and the Daity News can-
not see the fact.
The Star returns to the case of Mr. Gordon, maintaining
that his arrest, even if his speeches had implanted in the
minds of the negroes the seeds of disaffection and • ten-
dency to revolt, strikes at the root of one of the oldest
privileges possessed by members of parliament, and which
is of the essence of allpa-liamentary influence, usefulness,
and freedom. But the unfortunate man warn not even tried,
for the proceeding before the militia °Moen, his political
opponents, at Mount Bay, was nothing but • cruel farce.
If the people of England failed to vindicate their freedom
and privileges in such a cue, the most fatal injury would be
inflicted upon the cause of constitutional government.
What is possible in Jamaica may be done hereafter in
Canada or Australia. What the representative of the
crown may do in a colony the Sovereign may do at home.

The jadicial establishment of Ireland and the sinecures
it includes form the subject of an article In the Times. Not
long ago there was on the Irish bench a judge who, in addi-
tion to being past eighty yam of age, was OEMs& with
blindnes• Lord Norbnry retained his chief justioeship till
he fell asleep in the midst of a trial far murder, over
which he wee presiding alone. The special commis-
sion in the case of the Fenian has been appointed,
the Times believes, principally to prevent the pos-
sibility of Chief Justice Lefroy, who is now in his
90th year, occupying the seat whioh seemed peculiarly his
own. As to the manner in which he usually discharges his
duty in nisi prim or in criminal cases, it is done, un-
happily, jot se an old man of 90 must do it. At the be-
ginning of the day there is probably no very serious reason
to complain, but a few hours' attention exhausts faculties
submitted toe strain which human nature eannot support,
and the result is what may be easily imagined in a court
where the judge has become unable to direct,
to follow, or even to remember the proceedings
carried on before him. How can it be otherwise!
Public duty demands that this should be plainly stated.
Few legal Weenie would be more easy or more desirable
than one which should fix a limit of sgs beyoad which no
judicial calker should retain his position.
The Timm comments upon the numerous mace reported
in the papers of wretched creatures in a workhouse, s Ts-
gust ward, or a refuge tearing their clothe, to shreds. The
nuisance ought to be stopped, and the opportunity taken
to discover whether they are indeed the mere wretches
which their sets would lead us to suppose, or whether
they are utterly inexcusable and hopelessly irreclaimable.
The Daily News directs public attention to some [seta
connected with the Military College of Sandhurst. Accord-
ing to this statement, which the Daily News believes to be
correct, the vote for Sandhurst was reconsidered, mid
agreed to by parliament, upon the understanding that the
number of non-purchased commiesioas to be competed for
wto be about 160 ; and every parent who Lent
as
hie son to Sandhurst acted upon the belief
that his son would have the chance of obtaining one out
of 160 commissioes. But the premise tai
n been kept
at all. lo December, 1864, only 42 commissions were given
instead of 80 ; and is June, only 35 ; and the cadets have
been informed that in December next there will be only 25
instead of 80. That the parents who were induced to send
their lads to Sandhurst have been grievoasly deceived is
sufficiently manifest ; bat how has it happened 1 Of two
things, one ; either the Commanderan•Chief was absurdly
mistaken in his calculation, and obtained the votes of the
House of Commons by misrepresentation ; or the Com-
maader-in-Chief haa given away some eommissions to his
own friends which ought to have been given to the cadets
at Sandhurst.
As a body, the Telegraph mys, the butchers are reaping
50 per cent clear gain upon all the first-class meat which
they sell. They drive their carts to Newgate, Hooey-lane,
and the other markets, aud fill them full f good fat beef
end mutton at six, seven, and eightpenes a pouad, or good
but lean meat at much less than that, sad then they trot
home with it, to retail it at prices which, " sinking the
offal," are bringing them 50 per cent. clear profit. To
justify anything like the present prices, cattle and sheep
must perish in this country, not by tens, but by hundreds
of thousands ; and before such a calamity can take place,
we must pass through the winter, when the exactions of
the butcher will be as bad as famine to many • pinched and
numerous household. The Telegraph advises the poorer 11
names to live for a little time on fish, rice
puddings, and rabbits, rather than pay excessive prices. ,
Some people buy directly from the salesman at the meet
markets at an immense' saving. Let the morning
call
of the butcher's cart be abolished, and till prices come down
send the cook out again to bargain for supplies. It is to be
hoped that companies will be started to bring over cattle dead
and alive from Brazil, and take some of the trsde from
the retail shops by establishing great provision agencies.
Meantime, what we say to persons who are asked to pay
sixteen-pence for beef ice, " Don't pay it." That same
beef cost 711. in the City, and you can get as much of
it as you like for itd. and 10a. if you take the trouble
