BEAUTIES OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL~-The New
Orleans Times thus ventates commissioner Shannon,
the big dog with the brass collar, for enforcing the
civil rights bill in this State:
Commissioner Shannon exhibits a very remarkable
confusion of ideas of law and justice by demanding a
bail Of 100000 Of persons charged with the offence
of assault and battery and placing judge Abel under
bonds of $500 a charge Of treason. No one sus-
poets not commissioner Shannon, that the worthy
Judge has been guilty of anything approaching in the
slightest degree to the serious crime charged against
Inn; but, iuasmuch as the commissioner had enter
tanned the charge and the judge had refused go to
trial and asked that his be sent to the United
States court the commissioner was bound to regard
and treat it veritable charge of of the high
est offences known to the law Ills decision, there
FORE allow bail Of $500 must be ascrbed either
a conviction of the commissioner that there are no
grounds for the charge in which case it should not
have been received that treason is very light and
cheap offence In either view of the case, this com
missioner is very remarkable legal lumnary.

$4,000, 600 a YEAR.-Ths enormous sum was
levied and collected from the people by the United
States, last year, for the support of the federal gov
ernment 1t is equal to tax of SIS year, besides
all the enormous State and local taxes. Still with
these expenditures let the people remember the radi-
cal politicians insist on lavishng Sl0,000,000 upon
freedmens bureau in the south, to support the negro
population in idleness, and to pay their board and
house rent They insist, also, upon supporting i'm
mcnse standing army of 10000 men, at the cost of
100000 900 year, when it is entirely unnecessary,
and when its reduction would greatly tighten our
taxes. They also insist upon the exemption of the
wealthy bondholders from all taxation, State local
and the imposition of these burdens as additional
upon other and poorer classes Pittsburg Post

THE CAUSE or THE EUROPEAN WAR.-From an elab

political relations of the continental bellgercnts,
take the following compendious extract:
The plain fact is, that Prussia goes to to force
Austria ont of Germany, in order that Prussia may
reign i'll her stead, and that Italy goes to war with
Austria in order to liberae province first added to
Austria seventy years ago to suit the temporary ext
gences Of Gen Bonaparte, and restored to her in
1915 by the congress of Vienna. Prussia and Italy
the offensive, and Austria is on the defensive
and the thing stake is the existence of the Austrian
empire as the greatest power in central Europe
GENERAL RELEASE OF MILITARY PRI5oSERs.-Tho
department has ordered, at the instance of the
president of the United States that all persons who
are undergoing sentence by military courts and have
been imprisoned six months, except those who are
under sentence for the crimes of murder, arson or
