AMERICAN NOTES.
The-noinination of A. Oakey Hall as the De-modiatie

candidate for mayor of the city of New York, is, as the
telegraph correctly tells us, equivalent to his election, so
overwhelming is the Democratic majority in that metro-
polis. Mr. Hall is a lawyer of excellent standing,
especially in criminal practice, has been prosecuting
attorney for New York county, was originally an Aboli-
tionist and Republican, and has of late years excited great
influence as the leader of the Democratic party. He is,
moreover, known as an agreeable writer and orator.
The defeat of General Escobedo in the State of Tamau-
lipas is among our American advices yesterday. Esco-
bedo was one of the most trustworthy of the Liberal
leaders during the recent war, and at its close was
entrusted with the military command of the Northern
States. Early in October advices reached the city of
Mexico that Canales, Quiroga, and other chiefs of the
Santa Anna party were organising an insurrection in
Tamaulipas, a favourite seat of such projects, the proxi-
mity of the Texan frontier offering convenient facilities
for escape in the event of failure. Escobedo
hastened at once to Tampico, organised a sufficient
force, and moved against the insurgents, who had collected
at some distance north of the city. At the same time
General Carvajal was sent to Matamoras, with the design
of flanking the rebels. The first results of these steps were
successful ; the Santanists were beaten in several skin.
mishes, and the termination of the pronunciamento was
announced at the capital. The defeat now sustained by
the Liberal leader shews the triumph to have been pre-
mature, and places the highly-important port of Tampico
in serious peril.

The South has manifested signs of decided improvement
during the short period since the election of General
Grant. As was expected, there is a pretty general dis-
position to " accept a situation" which will endure for
four years at least, whether it is accepted or not.
A number of the leading Democrats of South
Carolina have called in a body upon General Scott,
and have expressed their determination for the future to
give a unanimous and hearty support to the State Govern.
ment. This promise has yet to be fulfilled, but it is
decidedly better than openly threatening to subvert the
Constitution and advocating a refusal to pay taxes.
Outrage and murder appear to be slightly on the decline in
many of the States. But the intelligence from Mr.
Reverdy Johnson's favoured land, Texas, is not a whit
better.

The New York Nation hopes that the Alabama question
will do something to Promote the establishment of an
international tribunal for the settlement of such disputes.
The selection of a sovereign as arbitrator, of course, means
the selection of the best jurists of the nation over which
he rules. Why, then, should the farce of putting forward
monarchs as the arbitrators in these cases be kept up, when
the real work is done by lawyers? "If two German pub-
licists, sitting in their own rooms, can settle such a con-
troversy as that now pending between two such Powers as
America and England to the satisfaction of the disputants
and of the world, the establishment of an internationi
court of arbitration cannot be very long delayed."
The Times correspondent estimates that a majority of
the House of Representatives-145 out of 227—is in favour
of redeeming the debt in greenbacks. It is probable that
a compromise will be effected, and that the interest of the
Five-Twenty Bonds will be reduced, instead of the prin-
cipal being paid off in a depreciated currency.
The same writer adds that the recall of Mr. Reverdy
Johnson seems to be determined upon.

FOREIGN NOTES.

SPAIN.

The stampeda amongst the candidates for the Spahist
throne has been complete. Of all the princes and nobles
who have in turn been put forth, only one remains in
public notice, and he has given the most positive assur-
ance that he will never reign over Spain. But in spite
of this refusal, Dom Ferdinand of Portugal is
still the only candidate spoken of. He is
said to be greatly interested in all that passes in the
country, and it is thought that his refusal will not retain
its inflexibility if the Spaniards offer him a crown instead
of a candidature. All that can be said of this is, that the
affairs of Spain have relapsed into that state of uncer-
tainty which generally indicates intrigue, and is not
unfrequently followed by a collapse. The Spectator's bold
speculation that Prim is planning for a dictatorship or
an imperial crown is not unwarranted. The Monarchists
have no candidate, the Republicans no leaders of eminence,
and yet Olozaga's compromise between republicanism and
monarchy bas been rejected by at least one of the two.
great parties.
The text of Baron Beust's corrected reportof his famous
speech on the new Army Bill is published in the Red
Book. The Austrian Minister says of the first report tha'
" even if the isolated expressions are accurately reproduced,
the absence of the context frequently alters the meaning."
This is beyond doubt a great truth, and this second edition
admirably illustrates it. All the original " isolated ex-
pressions" are now so encompassed hi a cloud of words that,
like Zadkiel's prophecies or the decisions of the Delphic
Oracle, they may mean anything. The strong smell of
powder which marked the original report has altogether
vanished.
