The Commercial Of this evening says
The report of the Secretary of the Treas
urv creates not little uneasiness upon
the question of finances. The want OF
adequate grasp on the question shown
in the report, and the absence OF any
comprehensive plan for settling the diih-
culties of the situation, together with
the vague, inconsistent theorizlng 81 the
Secretary, have produced very decided
lack of confidence in the future admins
tration of finances, which appear likely
to mature into formidable opposition to
McCulloch's official course.
Some papers say the gold market ex-
hibits renewed weakness Ir %
The increased shipments ofcotton from
the South is lessening the probabilities
of early export demands for gold aI
Foreign exchange is weak and frac-
ton lower. il
Dispatches from New Orleans report q
large increase in the exports OF cotton,
and the expectation of the early arrival

The upward tendency of hve-twenties

gold here, also has a weakening effect on
exchange. Best bankers sixty day $

The War of Races.

From the Tribune.
The Memphis Daily Commeroial-a Rebel
sheet, of course, none others indulge in such
luxuries of wo-preaches on this theme SER
mon full of loathsome malignity. 1t is but one
of many, we presume; but it is good specimen
of Its kind; spicy with newly kindled wrath, and
pointed with recent facts of bloody import. The
text for the discourse is passage from Jeher.
son, written in 1921, when ne was seventy-one
years of age, and, according to the editorial
prophet, III the plenary ripeness OF his bright
and powerful intellect The text runs as tol-
lOWs:-"Nothing is more certainly written in the
book of fate than that these people (the negroes,
to be free nor is it less certain that the two
races, equally free, cannot live in the same
government Nature, habit, opinion, have
drawn indelible lines of distinction between
them"
The points are these:-Jefferson was an anti
slavery man, and would prophesy the most
hopefully for the blacks He was a very wise
and sagacious man likewise. His first predic
tion has come true: The second, therefore
will, in all likelihood, come true also. There
will be war of races in the South. But in
war of races, the black race will be not only
subdued but eXterminated. Thus Aboitionisn
destroys itself, and thus pretended philanthropy
Will prove the destruction OF its victims. OnC
or two slips in logic here invite remark; for ia
stance that the second prediction must bt

war of races is the only issue, supposing thu
second prediction to be justified by experience

diction even more vague. Events have brough

France and Prussia.
From the World.

ITOW Ht VOFtu
Nothing can be more bland and conciliatory
than the tone of the Emperor Napoleon in his
discussion with Prussia upon the propriety of a
'rectifcation" of the eastern frontiers OF France.
as we see its results received by the Atlantic
cable. But nothing on the other hand, could
well be less reassuring as to the probabilities of
the preservation of peace between France and
Prussia than the substance OF the Emperors
reply to the ambassador OF King William.
The amenities of diplomatic intercourse like
the civilltes OF private correspondence, are
pretty sure to be clipped and docked in their
transmission over the busy and peremptory
wires of the telegraph; and the account which
we now receive OF the conclusion of these nego-
tiattons abundantly confirms our original doubts
as TO the form and nature of the alleged "de.
mandn made by France upon Prussia for the
Cession OF the Rhenish provinces of the latter
power Such q demand" would, in the first
place, have been utterly preposterous in the
actual condition of the two States; and could
it by any possibility have been made, it must, in
the second place, have been insisted upon with
all the power OF the empire, and at what.
erhazard.
Napoleon, made, as the Emperor declared
them to have been made, to satisfy the de.
mands of public opinion in France" must have
amounted to suggestion OF the propriety of
anticipating and preventing any future difficulty
on the subject of boundaries between the two
powers, by a reference of the question OF allie
glance to the people of the Rhenish districts
bordering upon France, as well Prusslan a;
Bavarian and Hessian. This suggestion, Prussia
it seems, has decdenly declined to entertain
and the Emperor of the French, protesting him
self entirely satisfied with the arguments by
| which King William jushhes his refusal, quietly
expresses the hope that nothing may occur tC
change the existing condition OF things, and tha
Prussia will not think OF passing the boundary
of the Main. But that Prussia does think, anC
| think seriously, of passing the boundary o
| the Main, is more than implied by the ilates
! news we have of the course OF the PrussiaI
| authorities and the Prussian armies beyond
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1866-08-18
TELEGRAPH-PHA ADELPH1A SATURDAY AUGUST 49, 1856

that boundary, and by the threatening aspect
OF the relations between Prussia, on the one
hand, and Wurtemberg, and Bavaria, the most
important States beyond the Main, on the other.
In that quarter of Germany all the signs now
point omiCousy to the renewal OF the conflict
at an early day. A Prussian invasion of Bavaria
east OF the Rhine would hardly be unattended
by simultaneous Prussian invasion of Bavaria
west of the Rhine, and Prussian inva-
sion of Bavaria west of the Rhine
would bring about at once state of
affairs on the immediate frontiers of France
which would justify the French Emperor not
only in making propositions to satisfy the
demands OF public opinion" but in taking
action to assure those frontiers.
Interpreted by all that the world knows Of
the third Napoleon's habtual course of con-
duct at critical emergencies, and Illuminated
by the light of the existing state of things in
Southern Germany, these curious negotiations
which have Just passed between Paris and
Berlin must be taken to be a sort of repro
duction OF those propositions for Con
gress," which, proceeding from the Tuileries,
preceded the outbreak of the Italian war in
1853, and again OF the recent struggle between
Austria and Prussia. 1t has been the one
clear and consistent aim of the policy of the
third Napoleon to avoid the methods, while
steadily laborng to attain the ends, of the
policy OF his uncle and predecessor. From
the moment when he assumed the sceptre,
Napoleon III has been visbly impressed with
the paramount necessity TO his perma.
nent success of persuading Europe that
tne helnous OF war ana conquest were
utterly distasteful to him. Never has IL
been so important for him to maintain
this impression as now, when events seem to be
tastlripening towards the crowning opportunity
OF his reign, and France once more sees within
her not distant reach the occasion OF seizing
once more that natural frontier" the desire OF
which has tor ages made the Rhine French
riverin the profound and passionate conviction
of the people of France. Against player play
ing SO patiently and SO warily for a stake so
high, the audacious and reckless game ofCount
Bismark may possibly prove successful. But
the chances, 1t must be admitted, look danger
ously the other way; and If this last move of
Napoleon shall precipitate the lmperlous Pre-
mier of Prussia more rapidly and boldly upon
the course of policy which he has shown himself
disposed to adopt towards Southern Germany
the world will not have long to wait for the
shock of French advance IN force upon the
positions which Count Bismark has now declined
to make the subject of diplomacy.
