KirissItndes of PerIodIeal Literature.

There have been one or two deaths
in the world of periodical literature OF
late. The Continental Magazine quietly
expired in December last It died, and
gave no sign in the shape of any fare
well apology. The career of this mag
azine was checkered, Mr. Gilmore ed
mund Kirke) once owned it, but of
late it is understood that it was the
property of Robert j. Walker, and was
edited by arelatiye of his, Mrs Martha
j. Cook
The Northern Monthly, edited by
Mr. Weston, began life well, and seem
ed to be admirably adapted for the ex-
IRENE eastern States. 1t contained
some very good articles, but it now ap-
pears to be under cloud, and the Jan
uary number is only a little sixteen
page advertising sheet, distributed gra-
tuitously. The editor, however, an
nounces that the publication of the Sc
cond volume of the magazins will soon
appear.

The Favorable State Of the National
Finances.

The y. \. Worlds washington cor
respondent writes to that journal
The favorable indications respecting
the national finances, were pointed out
by your correspondent early in Deeem-
Der The appropriations for the War
Department for the current fiscal year
are seven hundred and sixty-two mil
lion dollars (T62 coo, 000) The est
mates for the next fiscal year are re-
duced to five hundred and eleven mil
lion dollars (5ll, 000000) being a de-
crease of two hundred and fifty-One
million dollars (25l ,O00, 000) The navy
estimates will also be reduced fully
fifty millions, making three hundred
millions in all, while receipts of the
Treasury from, taxation, 1t is now GER
tain, will be increased hundred mil
lions. Thus the borrowing necessities
of the government for the next fiscal
year will be reduced four hundred mil
lion dollars, so that they will probably
not reach three hundred millions. The
hopes of increased revenue are based
on modification of the tobacco tax,
and the operation Of the whisky tax,
which has been imperative till now IA
consequence Of the large stocks on hand
at the time the tax was levied. A re-
vival of the business of the country IS
also expected to lead to better returns
from miscellaneous taxes.
Such a view comes from an unexpect-
ed quarter The World, in common
with the whole Copperhead press, did
all in its power before election to shake
the public confidence in the national
finances, and doubtless accomplished
much in that direction The writer
quoted above gives the lie to the past
political efforts of this journal and its
contemporaries, and shows up their in
sincerity and dishonesty.

crucible p0urs the molten metal into an ingot
mould, six or eight inches long, removes tine so

passes it repeatedly between two steel rollers
until 1t assumes the thickness of a ribbon,-and
this ribbon, about one eighthundredth of an inch
in thickness, and presenting q surface of about
five hundred square inches to- an ounce, passes now
20 the hands of the gOld-beater.
The working tools, the process, and the prod

English Opinion in 1861 ana 1865.

The London Morning Star says
1.-The fall of Charleston Is not an inapprOpri-
ate time TO glance at the course of English opin-
ion with regard to the war which the capture Of
Fort Sumter inaugurated. The South was avow-
eddy in arms for the promotion Of slavery, and of
our morning contemporaries all, with the exception
OF the Daily NelcS, supported the cause. of slay-
cry against the policy which England has for
many years made exclusively her own. The
South was in arms against the right of a consti-
tutiOnal assembly to decide upon a constitutional
question, against the right of a majority of votes
In u representative assembly to fix a policy for the
nation. and English journals were found to advO-
cate their mODstrous doctrines, although opposed
to the whole constitutional principles and prac-
tees Of England. Fortunately the Government
has not been forced into hostility to the free
States by the clamors of the ~partisans Of the
Shareholders; and the people have shown that Il
love of freedom and q genuine appreciation of
constitutional principles are more characteristic
Of the nOn-elector, than those who haughtily
assert their right to deprive their fellow-citizens
OF the privilege of freemen. The uphold. RS of
aristocratic privileges fondly imagined that free
institutions in America were about to prove 4
failure, and they rejoiced in those infractions of
our neutrality which favored the aristOcratic fac
ton of the South in the prosecution Of the war.
But the result has emphatieally shown the IRE
sistible power OF 4 Government sustained by COM
5ined efforts of a free people. Soldiers have
been found III numbers greater than the sternest
despOts could have commanded money has been
found in prOfusiOn the art of war has received u
new impetus from the free scope offered 10 inyen-
tors; generals have sprung UP masters of tactics
and strategy and, more than all, no victims
have persisted ON the scaffold. If these are the
failures OF free Institutions. imagination would
strive in vain to picture their ~triumphs."

Ingratitude to3arents.

There was once a fSeAcr who gave up every
thing to his children-his house, his fields, and
goods-and expected that for this his children
would support him. But after he had been some
time with his son, the latter grew tired of him
aud said to him - Father, L have had IL son
born to me this night, and there where your arm
chair stands the cradle must come. VIII you
not, perhaps, 90 to my brother, who has Il larger
room ~
After he had been some time with his second
son, he also grew tired Of him, and said ::
'' Father, Sou like Il warm room, and that hurts
my head. W on you 90 to my brother, the Bal
kerr" The father went, and after he had been
. some time with the third son, he also found him
troublesome, and said to him, . Father, the peo-
pie run IN and out here all day, as If it were Il
pigeon-house, and you cannot have your noon
day sleep. Would you not be better off ut my
sister Hates, near the town wall?"
The old man remarked how the wind blew,
and said to himself: "Yes, L viii do so l will
go and try it with my daughter. Women have
softer hearts" But after he had spent some
time with his daughter she grew weary Of him,
and said she was always 80 fearful when her
father went to Church, or anywhere else, and
was obliged to descend the steep stairs, and at
her sister Elizabeth's there was no stairs to de-
scend, as she lived ON the ground floor.
For the sake Of peace the old man assented,
and went to bis other daughter. But after some
time she was tired of him, and told him, by 4
third person, that her house near the water was
too damp for a man who suffered with govt, and
her sister, the grave-digger's wife, at st. Johns,
had much drier lodgings. The old man himself
thought she was right, and went outside the gate
to his youngest daughter, Helen. But after he
had been three days Will her, her little son said
to his grandfather
" Mother said yesterday To- Cousin Elizabeth,
that there was no better chamber for you than
such a one as father digs These words broke
the old mans heart, so he sank back in his chair
and died.-Marfin Luther.

Russia and the United States.

That for which Americans hold Alexander II.
in peculiar honor Is hs great act Of emancipa-
ton. They recognize this as the truest herolsIn
displayed in the Old World foT many a century.
That young man. 50 unexpectedly called 10 the
throne. and hardly rs yet firmly seated upon it,
cOnvOking the mobiles of his empire, heads Of
houses whose power and fame had been coeyaI
with the empire, opening before them a plan OF
making an end OF a system which had enabled
them 10 lord it absolutely over D, 900 900 Of
their fellow men, enduring calmly their exclama-
tons of amazement, their prophecies Of personal
rum, their omiuOus Outgiyings of rebellion, until
rs the midnight hour struck, he disnisses them
with these simple words
" Gentlemen, what imperial power created,
imperial power shall destroy - and then, on the
morrow, going almost single-handed toward the
execution of this gigantic task-that young pO-
~tentate, We say, will stand out as UNNECESSARILY
the grandsst European figure of the century.
The sovereign people Of the United States, mid
way IN their own work of emancipation, are
proud 10 hail Alexander III. as the Great Eman-
cipatOr.
But the Emperor of Russia has excited in the
American bosom n warmer feeling yet by his
Htaunch friendship through all the terrible trials
Of this rebellion. While the Western powers Of
Europe have openly sympathized with our do
mestic enemies, and have pursued n policy which
has all the while largely given them aid and
comfort, the Russian Emperor has never afforded
them the least countenance.
ACCUSING III inc beginning ~ JOIN LipAAHu anu
France in recognizing the sO-called COnfederacy
as a beliigerent power, he has ever observed the
obligations of international comfy with perfect
faith and on all fitting occasions has not hest
tated, through his ministers and ENJOYS, to ex-
press his fervent desire for such an issue of the
conflict as shall preserve the Union. Americans
Gun never forget this. They would have the
meanest Of human blood in their veins if the re-
Inembrance of it did not make them glow with
kindly feelings. Russian friendship has stood
the extreme ordeal, where almost every other Eu--
ropean friendship has failed. 1t will hencelorth
DC priced accordingly.
But yet again the approach Of the time when
the two great nations will be brought into the
closest proximity by the great Siberian telegraph
is calculated to generate new ties. The cession
70 Russia by China of the privilege of navigating
the river AmoOr, will prove of vast value in en-
abling her TO extend her trade and
eastward and must have n great effect, as well
ns the telegraph, in interlinking the commercial
interests Of the two countries.
