lions Of dollars to pay for the purchase; but
there Is little doubt as to what the House will
do. In spite of the hostility Of portion of the
radical press and its insinuation that the House
will upset what the administration and Senate
have done, the money will be appropriated
The overwhelming vote of the Senate leaves
no doubt on the subject; for the representative
men Of one body reflect the sentiments Of those
Of the other sufficiently to justify this conclu-
sion.
We should be surprised to sec any opposi-
tion, II we did not know that the old hide
bound federal party, and the radicals. which
are an ofshoot or . remnant Of that party,
always opposed the acquisition Of territory.
However, some Of those have lately become
enlightened and liberal enough not to
stand In the way Of our national progress.
The principle Of Chinese exclusiveness and
non-expansion finds few advocates now, except
in the small class Of narrow-minded dogmatiss
represented by the radical press Of this city.
As to the amount Of the purchase money
seven millions and . half OF dollars-that Is q
mere bagatelle, either to this great country or
Russia The cession was made and accepted
on higher considerations Russia, in her friend
ship for this country, from desire to con-
tribute TO it, progress and power, and for the
purpose Of perpetuating intimate relations with

cant sum. Our own government, carrying out

The new iron bridge at the corner Of Fulton
street and Broadway Is approaching compile
ton and will be open to trafic in few days.
There has been but one mistake made with It,
and that is that It is utterly unserviceable for
the persons whom 1t was intended to benefit.
We are safe In saying that not more than one
out Of thousand lady foot passengers will
avail herself Of the facilities afforded by IL.
The stairways are 80 steep and unprotected
from view that only females Of more than an
ordinary amount ofcourage will venture to run
the gauntlet Of observation from below. Male
passengers will scarcely be more disposed to
make use Of Il. The structure ia high and
laborious 10 climb. We are afraid, therefore
that 1t will fail to answer any purpose except
that Of post for sightseers on procession
days. When we suggested the construction Of
a bridge for foot passengers at this point we
had In view very different affair from that
which has been erected. Experience has
shown that weight OF metal in iron structures
IL not essential to their solidity. Lightness
and compactness are perfectly compatible
with security. We need only point to the COM

Tho Public He.l.h--visa, statistics.

The weekly report Of the Registrar of Vital
Statistics, which we published yesterday, is
suggestive Of many grave considerations, which
ought to lead to the adoption Of some remedy
for the increasing mortality of this city, which
is proportionably larger now than that Of Lon
don or Paris, or perhaps any city in the world.
1t il shown that the most potent causes Of
disease and death are to be found in the tens-
ment house system, which, according to all
reports, is the worst and most dangerous known
TO any large city. The facts that the average
mortality Of Brooklyn-where tho tenement
houses are exceedingly fowls much less than
in New York, in proportion to It's population,
and that the prevalence of infectious maladiss
is much less in the former city, go far TO
prove that we owe great deal Of the sickness
which prevails in the metropolis to what DR..
Harris properly calls crowd poisoning" We
are warned that as the summer approaches
epidemic diseases will seize upon all those
localities wherc tenement houses exist Now,
therefore, is the time TO adoptsome preventive
for the threatened calamity. Unless some mea
sures are taken to provide well ventilated
dwellings for the laboring poor, either in the
suburbs or in the neighboring cities in New
Jersey and on Long Island, we can hardly
expect, with the large increase Of population
which is certain to accrue from immigration
this spring, to escape the scourge Of conta-
gious diseases, whether they take the form of
cholera or typhus.

THE War Panic.

Public securities here, as we'll as abroad,
have been unreasonably affected by the result
Of the negotiations for the purchase by France
Of the duchy and fortress Of Luxembourg. It
turns out that Holland has no right to sell
either, and even II she had, Prussia occupies
the fortress with her troops, and as possession
Is nine points Of the law, the Dutch prudently
refuse to conclude the bargain. France cannot
well make casus beN Of this; but IL she
were disposed, she is not ready to do so. Her
new plan Of military reorganization will take
at least twelve months to complete, aud Louis
Napoleon is not fool enough to enter upon
campaign against Prussia, strengthened as she
now is, until he Is prepared at every point. A
second military failure following close upon
that Of Mexico would destroy bis prestige with
the French people and probably lose him
his throne. II is all very well for
the purposes of stock operators to start such
an alarm, but great many things may occur
before II has o chance OF realization. France
is no more in condition than Prussia to COM
mence contest fraught with such tremendous
consequences. The revenues Of both have
need Of nursing, and it would be an act Of
supreme folly on their part to provoke an ex-
penditure which would burden them with debt
for half century 10 come. Still there is no
reckoning on what the ambition or fancied ne
cessities Of ruler like Napoleon may drive
him to. There Is only one thing on which we
can count In his regard, and that IL that he
will not provoke European war until he b
prepared for It, and that will certainly not be
within period which should exercise any
preseat influence upon our stock market

Tho Great Eastera.

After somewhat protracted voyage the
mammoth steamship Great Eastern Ia anchored
in these waters. For the third time our citizens
have the privilege Of inspecting certainly the
largest and, in many respects, the most beauti-
full and highly finished vessel that ever foated.
As on former occasions, though the novelty b
no longer fresh, thousands will 6ock tosse her.
In addition to her former a&trasfions she oom-
mauds attention from the part YAich she has
played in the successful laying Of Che Atlantic,
cable. Her name y now aud ever will bs
honorably associated with the nost gigantic
and, in the interests Of civilization, the mos1
useful enterprise Of modern tunes Though
she should never prove prosperous ship In
the ordinary sense Of the term, her simple oon,
nection with that enterprise renders it forever
impossible that it should be said Of her that
she was built in vain.
AT the Same time it cannot be said Of hse
that she has at all realized the expectations Of
her orig inal proprictos or justified the con-
clusions Of her architect and builder. We are
not yielding 10 spirit Of detraction, nor are
we guilty Of the slightest exaggeration whom
We pronounce it q gigantic failure. For all
practical purposes she 10, unqusstionably, too
large; nor is she possessed Of single advan-
tsge, except for extraordinary purposes, which
may not be equally secured by smallsr
vessel. When she first 6oated in the Thames ct
Millwall 1t was announced with flourish
Of trumpcts that shipbuilding had been oom.
pletely rcvolutionised, and that the smaller
craft, which had hitherto maintained sele pos
session Of the ocean, were to give place to
floating cities. That dream has not yet been
realized, and at the present moment II seems a.
far from being realized ~ ever. The recent
success Of the American yachts which crossed
the Atlantic in tho stormy month of Decem-
ber in less time than that taken by the Great
Eastern at this more favorable season, rem
ders it doubtful whether mere bulk has any
thing at all to do with either speed or safety.
In this new enterprise In which she is embarked
and which, before 1t is concluded, will proba-
bly, give us more correct views Of her sea-
going qualities than any We have yet obtained,
we wish the mammoth ship and the spirited
company in whose service she now is, aN
success

BY one Of our cable dispatches yesterday
we were informed that the liberal party in the
House Of Commons had split on the reform
question, and that on that account the Derby
government were considered out Of danger.
On what particular grounds this division has
taken place our cable despatch leaves US In
darkness 1t has not been dificult to see for
some time past that this was the object at
which Mr.. Disraeli was driving. Disunlon, to
the extent TO which it will weaken the opposi-
tion, will give strength to the government.
Disraeli's declaration at the close Of the debate
on the second reading, that government were
to leave out the Objectionable parts Of the
bill, and otherwise to make remarkable con-
cesssions, but that they were determined to
retain their seats till this question was settled,
was eminsntly fitted to create confusion In
the liberal ranks. Il seems to have done 20.
There Is party in the House which is
opposed to reform bill at the hands Of the
tories, no matter what form the bill might
assume. 1t was noteworthy that on the occa-
sion lust referred to John Bright, notwithstand-
ing his severe structures on the bill, distinctly
avowed his willingness TO lend the government
oil reasonable help to carry safe and salts
factory measure. II reform h granted-such
reform as shall give satisfaction to the great
bulk Of the people--it ought 10 be no objection

All those seeking employment or in want Of
help will observe the improved system of clas-
siacation Of advertisements relating to these
prominent wants Of the community adopted in
our advertising columns. By placing the
number Of the house to which applications for
servants are to be made in numerical order
at the head Of each advertisement great
facility is afforded to those who want to hire,
and at the same time the interests Of the
parties desiring employment are considerably
advanced. Advertising in the HERALD has
become almost science. The regularity and
accuracy with which the advertisements are
arranged remove oil didloulty in finding pre-
cisely what every one needs. The commu-
nication between those wanting employment
and those in want of employees Is rendered
cheap and rapid. All necessity for intelligence
o6icss or middle men In any shape is completely
done away with. In fact, the mode Of clas-
sifying advertisements in our columns will
