New YORK, January 27.-The steamships
ll!bernian and Java have arrived, with
Liverpool dates to the 18th inst.
The Spanish insurgents defeated the
Government troops, though official de-
spatchcs say the insurgents are discourage
ed and retreating.
The Times, aud other journals, having
attributed the pressure of . e money
market to heavy exports to mcricu, on
credit, the commercial men publish re-
futing argument, showing that remittances
have been most prompt and heavy. The
cotton receipts are set off against British
exports.
1t is reported that Russell has submitted
his reform bill to the cabinet
1t is understood that Stephens, the
Fenian Head Centre, has left Paris and
gone to Geneva, to confer with the men,-
bers Of his international revolutionary
club.
The Paris correspondent of the Times
says the Mexican difficulty was before the
last ministerial council. Nearly all the
members favored the speedy recall of tho
French troops, but the Emperor thinks
the time has not yet arrived.
Spanish affairs are unchanged.

THE EDITORIAL TREAD The
Home Journal thus describes the
editors burdens:
cit is one of the hardships of our
profession that its working wheels
brains and heart-are not allowed to
lag for sickness, or to stop for calaimi-
ty or sorrow. The Judge may adjourn
his court, the school and the work
shop may close shutters, the mourner
may veil his features, and turn friend
and stranger from the door; but the
journalist must forget before to-mor-
row the sorrows of to-day, must write
gaily and freshly as newsmonger on
the trifie of the hour, whatever bur
den has been laid upon the same hour
by Providence, or his brains as a man.
It sometimes tries and mocks as the
world that reads what is thus written
would never dream of. The public
looks upon the editors labors as the
Indian did upon the man that was
cutting hay. He finally gave as his
opinion that it was easy to see the
white man mow.'

RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS.
1t is all very well for Congress to
support the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry in his financial propositions, for
there is but little doubt the Seer ctary
has more knowledge of finance than
all Congress put together. But it is
not the Secretary alone who is man
aging the business of resumption of
specie payments. He is aided bv the
gold brokers and stock jobbers of
Wall street, who are endeavoring to
manipulate the measure SO as to make
1T useful to them in their money
speculations. Some want resumption
In one day or two days Others say
one week or two weeks. Others.
again, one month or two months.
All these propositions as to time are
equally absurd. It took us four
years to accumulate the burtlensome
debt under which our people labor.
1t will require double that time to
get rid of it. 1t is easier to get into
debt than out of it. "And some years
must elapse before we can restore our
currency and financial position gene
rally to the condition they were in
before the war. Ne,c York Heyoll.

MIR. PRENTICE's OPINION ON NEGRO
SUFFRAGE.-In reference to the suf-
frage question, our own view is, after
the maturest reflection upon the sub
Ject, not only that Congress has no
power over the question whatever,
but that under no circumstances, and
upon no conditions, should the cleo
tive franchise be given by State to
the negro race in this country.

acre, and tho entire crop being esti-
mated at u, 600, 900 bushels, which is
4S bushels to each inhabitant, man,
woman and child, of the State. Wheat
IS the principal agricultural produc-
ton of Minnesota but extensive
