Yours, \. DoUrTEn.
Tire communication of our correspondent opens
a broad field for the discussion of the proposed
treaty, as it refers to the chief points involved in
the adoption of the measure. As the whole
subject must soon be thoroughly discussed in all
its phases, its advantages and disadvantages
exposed, and its merits and dcmerits weighed in
the scales. both here and ut Washington, there
can be no harm in giving it a thorough investi-
CATION. There are some who still contend that
it will prove a measure of doubtful utility to
either country, and if their arguments possess
weight, they may prevail.
In reply TO our correspondents first inquiry,
whether the planters will receive the whole
benefit or the reduction of three cents n pound
ON the lower grades Of sugar proposed to he
admitted free into the United States, We answer,
no. There must be some reduction III the
price Of all sugars in san Francisco conSc-
quent on the introduction Of dark grades into
that port free of duty. 1t may lie one OF
onc-and-a-half cents. What it will amount
to no ono can now tell, but it will probably he

ADAM DEFExDRD.-You must remember
that Eve WAS young lady Of great person
al attractions, belonging to the first family
Not being given to flirting, nor fashion,
nor, in short, to any Of the modern female
follies. she had, doubtless, bestowed much
thought upon the subject OF the forbidden
fruit. Having considered Il well, she came
to the conclusion that she would not give
Adam for Paradise unless she could
know something about how she was enjoy
ing herself. The moment q woman makes
up her mind to do thing, that thing is
half done. Accordingly, Eve selected
proper apple, and asked Adam to Join her
ii eatiHgft. She Was the wife Of his bos-
min-ithe Joy of his heart the apple Of his
eye-his darling little honey-bug pure as
fake Of descending sncw, and as beauti-
full as an angels dream. How'cYuld he re-
fuse her anythlngs He couldn't and he
did ut ; and I, for one, have never blamed
him since / leil IN love with . red-headed
girl at school. No doubt It is quite disa-

The Franeo-Prussian Imbroglio.

The latest dispatches from Europe
indicate that the attitude Of the French
and Prussian authorities towards each
other is assuming very threatening
aspect. The probable agreement to
settle the Luxembourg question by per-
hitting Luxembourg to remain an in
dependent duchy does mot seem to
mend matters in the Slightest respect.
1t only demonstrates the more fully
atLuxembourg was made only the
pretext for war, while in reality the
growingpo~erof Prussia and the con
seduent jealousy of France lay at the
bottom of. the whole question. Ever
since The; great battle Of sadowa, and
the consequent absorption of the North
German States, Napoleon Has looked
on the growing power9of Prussia with
anxious eyes. 'tie-sses ''as'great power
arising IN the|heart Of Europe, CONSOLE
dating its authority over neighboring
and Homogeneous peoples, looking per
thaps ito extending its area to the sea,
so dis to besone maritime nation,
with a large standing army OF the best
troops in the world, and the s1ght
arouses'in his breast feelings very diff
ferent from those of security and salts
faction. The idea of being any other
than the controlling power on the toh-
tinent is by no means eonsoliSg to the
heart of the Representative Of the first
Napoleon, and the great Bonaparte's
favorite scheme of making the Rhine
the boundary Of the Empire, with
which this Luxembourg question is Sc
riously interfering, has ever been fond
ly cherished by his distinguished sue
cessor. Hence the active preparations
for war on the part Of both Of these
great nations, and the prospect is GER
taihly good one for the commence
ment at no distant day of war into
which all the great powers OF Europe
will be drawn, and which bids fair to
exceed in magnitude any war that has
shaken Europe since the peace of 1915
Whether the United States may not
also be drawn into it remains to be
seen. At any rate a European wal
cannot failto :afect dur own govern

We see that the mere ;rhhor Of war has
