Of themselves, Is is the case in Russia
Every attempt that has been made to
blend dyDastio authority with popular
insti utiens has been q failure. Such
experiments in France and Spain have
led to bloodthed, revolution, and sad ruin:
they must come at last to revolution in Eng
land. Timely concessions have retarded the
evil day; but il is not the less inevitable that
q time will come when the existence Of the
House of Lords and hereditary throne will be
found entirely incompatible with free govern
ment in England. No one knows better than
the Times that Nicholas is quite correct in re-
gardiDg his form Of government and ours as
the only two which possess within them ele-
ments of stability.
We are, we confess, not little surprised to
find in the Times illustrations and SMILES
drawn from catchpenny novel, the patronage
of which we had hoped that men Of sense in
England would have left to strong minded
women like Lord Carlisle and the Duchess Of
Sutherland. Whether DR.. COttman has or has
not plantation in Louisiana, his opinions with
respect to Russia are not the less worthy of at.
tentioD; and British writer's If they desire our
sympathy, had better set their wits to work to
disprove of his statements, In which their SOL
diers cut 80 poor figure, instead of borrowing
from the Mrs. Jellabys of the day silly sneers
at negro slavery.

RAW MATERIALS FOR THE FABRICATION OF
PAPER.-We invite attention to the important
facts developed in the correspondence between
the Departments of the Treasury and the
Board Of Trade in England respecting the vege-
table substances which may be advantageously
employed as substitutes for the cotton and
linen rags now used in the manufacture Of pa
per. As the supply of the latter materials does
not keep pace with the rapidly increasing con-
sumption of the manufacture Of which they
form the basis, it will be necessary for US i'm
mediately to turn our attention to some means
not only Of making up the deficiency, but il
possible Of reducing the present prices Of
paper. The spread of education and the thirst
for information through the medium Of books
and newspapers, which have occasioned this in
suficiency in the supply Of the raw materials
OF paper must not suffer check as long as
there is prospect of our obtaining them from
any other source. With the great variety Of
climate that we possess it will be seen from the
facts stated in the report Of Mr.. Forbes Royle
to the Board Of Trade that we ought to have no
difficulty in growing many, If not all, the vege.
table substances which he suggests as fitting
for the purpose. We trust that the attention
Of our own government viii be Immediately
directed to the subject, and that experiments
will be made by competent scientific persons
to test the capabilities Of those indigenous
plants that seem to offer that quality of fibre
which will best supply the conditions of a good
manufacture.

and the blood which the last few days present.
Beginning with Sunday, " heated term"-as
the sagacious Merriam has it--has worried man
and beast, and dried up the little moisture
August had spared: and. beginning also with
Sunday the passions of men in q large number
of cities in the Union have led to riots and
bloodshed. We have riots in New York, and
riots in Philadelphia: ARRAYS in Missouri and
ARRAYS in Massachusetts: stone throwing, stab
bing and shooting in the North, and the like
gentle practices in the South: besides host
of affairs of a cognate order, which the modesty
of the actors or the obscurity Of the event have
concealed from the all-seeing telegraph. This
is no isolated coincidence. From the days Of
Actium and Pharsalia all the great battles
with some halfdosen exceptions, have been
fought in hot weather. In hot weather riots in
large cities have always broken out; the most
heroic feats Of arms have been done under a
scorching sun. Till February, lS48, it was ad-
mitted on all hands that Paris was safe, If the
dog-days could be got over without distur-
bance When the mercury rises in the ther-

Men grow surly and excitable. Dogs snap
savagely at fies Irishmen take It into their
heads to superintend the couture Of their fellow
citizens, and reward wearers of white hats
with red crowns. German Turnerbunds set a
fighting among themselves, and end their fes-
tivites by thrashing policemen with fence rails.
Ruffians, deprived Of public safety valves for
their overheated blood, ease themselves by

and the inevitable fruits, Of the past tyranny Of
party-efforts to throw OF the thraldom that
has held the political judgment of the country
for the last twenty five years. What principles
cannot now effect for good in the general ad-
ministration, must remain for future enlighten-
ment. Mere expedients even in local affairs,
are discredited and condemned. At all times
they are the weapons of small men, and are to-
lerated only in obscurity. How deeply dis
graced are the American people by the great
fact which stares them in the face, that their
administration, after eighteen months expe-
rience il one Of anmitigated expedients Not
a line Of rational policy having its foundar
tons in justice and right can be traced
to the deliberations Of the Cabinet.
"The wind bloweth where it listeth y we
hear the sound thereof; but the wise man is not
here to tell "whence 1t cometh and whittier tits
going" Each day the sails are set to the
popular breeze, but the reckoning tells us of
the utter incapacity, If not imbccility, of the
commander.
Our relations with Spain, and the condition
Of affairs in Cuba, have not been changed since
the President delivered his inaugural address
and his grandiioquent message to Congress in
reference to Spanish American affairs. The
government of Espartcro Is in no wise different
from the government Of Christina, so far as
those interests are concerned. The complica-
tons Of European affairs, by which England
and France assumed all the obligations they
can well discharge, preceded our alleged griev-
ances in Cuba and the Spanish revolution. If
we had rights to redress, they were not changed
by affairs on the other side Of the water.
II is undeniable that both the American
government and people regarded the outrage
in the case Of the Black Warrior not SO much
with reference to the injuries inflicted upon
our citizens as to the ultimate fate Of that
island.
Three-fourths Of our people believe that, by
the laws Of population alone, we shall, sooner
or later, effect the conquest of Cuba. General
