Euronean FInances---Hareer Tlmes Coming.

Finances---Harder Times Coming.
Consos at 87a and falling, and Bank rates at 81
and rising, are unerring Indications of commercial
stringency in England. This price for consols is
some three per cent lower than the lowest point be-
fore the capture of Sebastopol Indeed the fall OF
that place seems to have had effect in arresting the
downward tendency Of public securities. The tight
ness of money, occasoned by the large demands tor
the war, the Turkish Loan, and the anticipated
scarcity of food, more than counterbalance all the
beneficial effects of any partial successes in the Girl
mea. France is feeling the pressure quite as much,
if not more than England. But then she has the con-
ISOLATION, so dear to her people, of glory' while Eng
land has not. The position of the English army is
hereafter to be still more secondary General Pes-
ser is TO take the field for active operations. General
Simpson, of the British, and General Marmora, of
the Sandman armies, are simply TO hold defensive
positions. The English people must soon get sick Of
the figure they are making at so great an expense
There can be little doubt but that Russia feels the eff
fects of the war very severely All the belligerens
must begin to look for peace as necessity OF exist
ence But of course, that peace is not Immediately
at hand but yet it cannot be years of, as some wise
folks prognostlcate.

The LATE TRAGEDY NEAR CUMBERLAND, MD
The Cumberland Telegraph has an account of the
terrible murder of Dr. Hade and Henry Graetf, but
ii contains very few facts not already mentioned in
the Sun. The Telegraph says that Miller, the &C.
cused, had been trequenter at Dr. Hades, and this
caused him to be suspected as the author of the
bloody deed The suspicion was further confirmed
by the fact that box, belonging to him, and found
at the house where he was arrested, was discovered
being broken open, to contain the doctors hat ar.
tices of his clothing medical books with his name
in them, and lot of valuable medicines, together
with the key of his Office. The Office of the deceased
was also found in great disorder, having evidently
been robbed on Sunday night. subsequently the
body of DR.. Hadel was discovered. The features
says the Telegraph, looked very natural and were q,
once recognized 1t was found lying by the side oil
the turnpike, about four miles from town, and nea,
the spot where the railroad of the Cumberland Goa
and Iron Company crosses the turnpike. The tele
graph describes the public excitement, in consequence
of this double murder, truly intense but, fortu
nateIy it has been resolved to allow the law TO TAKE
its course. The grand jury commenced the exami
nation of witnesses Wednesday, and it is supposed
that the accused will be tried by the Circuit Cour
now IN session. Miller is a small man, aad appear
very delcate-has black hair aid large black wills
