The Washington Chronicle states that
reciprocity treated highly advantage
ous to the United States has been conclu-
ded between our Government and that
of the Hawaiian Islands. 1t adds that
this treaty is regarded by competent per-
sons as the first step toward the acquisi-
ton of these islands by our Government,
with the prospect OF securing the virtual
control of the trade of the Pacific. The
present King of the Islands is not mar
ried, and has no relatives entitled to
succession. It is, therefore expected, that
with his death the royal house will be-
come extinct, and the independence of
the Islands cease. ....

Congress-.

The work of the present session is about con
cluded. The reconstruction bill as agreed upon
by the House and Senate was sent to the Presi-
dent on Saturday afternoon. His veto was ex-
pected to reach Congress onThursday afternoon
when the bill would be passed over the veto
and Congress adjourn to November next The
Senate went Into executive session on Saturday
and decided it could not at this session, act on
any of the nominations that were postponed to
December. The President therefore made a
new nomination of Raymond, Minister to Aus
tria, Bancroft to Prussia, and one or two minor
appointments. Bancroft was confirmed.

PooR IRELAND.-The Russian Govern
ment, says Cable dispatch, has called
the attention of the Government of Eng
land, France and the United States to
the existing state of affairs in Ireland, !,
and expressed the opinion that joint
inquiry into the condition of the island,
on the part of the Governments of Rus
sia, France and the United States, in
conjunction with that of Great Britain,
should take place. This would certainly
be most astounding news, if it were
true. But few people will be able to
persuade themselves that it is. 1t GER
tainly reads more like Fenian joke than
like Russian note. Very possibly the
Russian Government believes that the
wretched condition Of Ireland should be
investigated, but action upon that belief
would be a very different thing.
The Journal Of st. Petersburg takes
the trouble of expressly declaring that
the famous Russian note on Ireland is a
sheer fabrication. The n. Y. Herald
considers the note as startling news.

MIR. S. S. Cox and othrr permanent
Democrats were reported by telegraph
a day Or two ago, as being in Washing
ton urging upon political friends the poll
cy of nominating Gen. Grant, for the
Presidency, no matter what his princi-
pies may be. To this the Cincinnati In
qtirer responds:
''There are a plenty of soldiers who
think that Gen. Grant has already been
too highly rewarded for his merits, and
who do not believe that all the honors
and high positions should be carried off
by one man. He now struts about with
his three stars and $4,000 year life po-
sition, while thousands of men who did
quite as much service are reduced to
penury and wants. 1t is a great mistake
to suppose that the Democratic coEserva-
tive men who were in the army are go
ing to run after Gen. Grant, in order to
pour still more affiuence into his lap and
to clothe him with still higher elevation.
He will get no votes from that quarter.
There are hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie, of poth parties, who think that some
of these high military dignitaries who
have been lifted from obscurity, by the
fortunate events of the war, are putting
on altogether too many airs, and becom-
ing too important and inflated. They
do not think that all the offices are their
property for years TO come, and that no
language is to be poured into their ears
but unbounded fiattery and eulogy. The
common sense of this people, too, has
has been disgusted by the extraordinary
ovations which have been paid to Gener-
al Grant, and they have anxiously in
quired 'upon what hath this our Caesar
fed, that he has grown so great?" High
as this military dcspot is in rank, and
vast as are bis pretensions, we are not
afraid to meet him in q popular canvass
and to discuss his merits for the position
of Chief Magistrate of this Republic.
Such bubble can be easily pricked, and
the gas it contains let out"
Nest of the Democrats hate so intens-
ely the cause in which Gen. Grant earn
ed his fame that they will not vote for
him for anything.

countries For Sale.

The Princes of Europe, all of whom are over
head and ears in debt, have discovered means
to raise money. In examining their Revenues
they find some pieces Of land which they can do
without, in case reasonable price should be
offered them. The success of the Emperor of
Russia in disposing of Russian America advan-
tageOusly has brought out number of other
propositions. The King of Holland has set
nearly the whole of Europe on fire by propos-
ing to France the sale of Luxemburg, in order.
it is stated in some European papers, to obtain
some money for himself and for a certain lady
in Paris who had formerly been on intimate
terms with him. Being frustrated in his design
by the vigilence and defiant attitude of Prussia,
the King now intends to put mp some of the
American Colonies of Holland at auction The
Saltan of Turkey, finding not money enough in
the Treasury 10 pay for his trip TO the exhibi-
ton, has offered TO Russia the sale of Jerusa-
lem for twenty million piastres In Germany,
the Prince OF Waldeck finds TINT the establish
ment of the North German Confederation will
cost his little country more money than it can
afford to pay, and he consequently has made
the offer to Prussia to buy from him the whole
Principally. Should his proposition be accept
ed, it is believed that half dozen more of the
little members of the Confederation will hasten
to make the same proposition. Sweden is sta
ted to be anxious to sell the Island of st. Bar
thelemy. in the West Indies. Thus real ma.
na of making money by selling land seems to
spread among the princes. But thus far there
are more sellers than bayers.

1t is reported that serious troubles
have broken out in the Austrian province
of Galieia, and the troops that were sent
to put them down have been beaten by
the rioters. The origin of their troubles
is traced to Russian emisssries. Gallicia
is inhabited by two different Sclavic
tribes, the Poles and the Ruthenians.-
The former are, on the whole, friendly to
the Austrian Government, while the Ru-
thenians, regard themselves as being OPP
pressed by the Poles, are looking out for
aid to Russia As the Sclavi constitute
by for the most numerous race of the
Austrian Empire, and as, with the excep
tion of the Poles, all other Sclavic tribes
are greatly discontented with the Aus
trian policy, q continuance of these
troubles might involve very serious
danger to the empire.

the New York Post vigorously assails those
members of the travelling public who are in the
habit of monopolizing at least a whole seat, and
if possible, another on which to stretch their
legs regardless of the convenience of their fell
low passengers. Every passenger train on any
railroad in the country contains a number of
these nuisances who ought to go as freight up
