The Swedish naval authorities are about to
launch a third monitor, which will start on an experi-
mental voyage of three months as soon as ready for sea.

The New York correspondent of the Standard,
in his letter published in yesterday's issue of that
journal, continues his efforts to libel the country
from which he writes. " I can say," he states,
" without fear of contradiction, that there is no
other country in the world where the white skin
predominates in which so great a contempt for
human life exists, and there is no other country
where all laws, human and divine, are so persistently
violated." We can say, in reply, that, there is no
other country where the great mass of the peopl,3
arc so conservative and Jaw abiding. That the
United States are deluged with the riff-rair and
criminals of Europe is true ; and that the city of
New York, the main receptacle into which the dregs
settle down, is very injuriously affected is equally
true. But it is to the hononrof the Republican
Government of the country that the tendency is to
raise in the moral scale . the immigrants received,
and we believe that no other nation could have borne
such an inroad without hopelessly sinking beneath
the burden. If immigration stopped, the nation
would rise quickly to a higher moral standard ; bu t
the upward tendency is balanced by the constant
influx. Nothing could be more easy than for the
London correspondent of a New York daily to pic-
ture England as a sink of iniquity, basing his ob-
servations on the revelations of Trades' Unions and
of Joint-stock Companies—on the social evil—of
the prevailing drunkenness, and on the open vio-

lence to person and peoperty practised in the broad
daylight in this great metropolis. Then we would
have the Loadon journals commenting severely on
the injustice to and dislike of the Britisher, as dis-
played in the columns of the New York Herald
or the New York Times. The correspondent states
that in the city of New York and in the neighbour-

ing city of Brooklyn 13 murders have been com-
mitted since the preceding Sunday morning, that
is from the 9th to 15th June :—" People may ask
—To what is this demoralisation of American
society due ? Probably, to no single cause. The .
war bred disregard for human life, extravagance
in expenditure, a contempt fur the restraints of law.
But the war ended two years ago, and matters are
worse now than they were then. How much of
our troubles are due to the horrible transforma-
tions that have been worked in our churches, how
much to the triumph of the old feral instincts
gratified in the conquest of the South, how much
to the growing love of display and bounce, I will
not venture to say. Not a little is certainly duo
to our foolish system of elections. The mob
create, why blame the mob for desiring to de-
stroy ? " We ask, to what is all the vice
lately revealed in England due ? and we be-
lieve there is one answer to both, and that is,
that " the heart of man is deceitful above all things,
and desperately wicked." After describing the
horrible orgies in which the most abandoned in
New York took part, the writer goes on to say
" that such things can have place in a country go-
verned, as tho Radicals assert, by a party of great
moral ideas'—iu a pure Republic—will perhaps sur-
prise people who are accustomed to what Mr. J•
W. Forney calls ' the effete civilisation of the Old
World.' " But all this is exceptional, and there-
fore unfair. The crime of a clergyman does not
condemn the Church ; nor is England uncharitable
because there is more starvation and misery in the
streets of London than elsewhere in the world.
