The New Granadian DimcuIty.

There are rumors at Panama of difficulty
between Mr.. Burton, the United States Minister
to Bogota, and General Mosquera, President of
New Granada, in consequence OF which the
former demanded his passports and broke of
communication with the New Granadian gov
eminent. The cause of this trouble sis said"
we are informed, to be letter from the COM
missioner of General Mosquera, charging the
Americans on the Isthmus with being the
authors of all the difficulties relating to the
movement for the independence Of the Is,hmus.
Possibly the commissioner may be right but
he neglected, no doubt, to state the reason
why the Americans on the Isthmus are dissaiis-
fed with the present state of things there,
more particularly with the wretched system
pursued in the New Granadian Post Office. 1t
requires no graphic pen to describe the vexa-
tious delays, the miserable laundering and
endless confusion incidental to this native
system The government and people Of the
United States have immense interests in
the Pacific, and it is of the utmost import
jeopardized by the incompetency, carelessness
and stupidity Of General Mosqucra's agents
We must have free and untrammelled mail
route, by the most convenient way; and for
our Pacific trade the Isthmus is the most con-
venient. We wish to use this route fairly, and
an arrangement was made in this spirit with
the government Of New Granada. General
Mosquera has been pleased to order that all
mails from the United States and Europe
across the Isthmus, shall pass through
native post Offices If this suits us, all right;
but II it does not suit us, General Mosquera
must prepare to change it or take the con-
sequences. Neither he nor the State Of New
Granada, nor the United Republic of Colombia
shall be permitted to stand between us and
our interests and the sooner General Mosqusra
understands this the better It will be for him
and his postmasters. The quarrel with Mr..
Burton Is altogether secondary, nor do we
stop to inquire into its merits. Neither do we
care Hg for all the letters General Mosqueras
commissioner may write. II our Minister Is
wrong we will censure him; If right, uphold
him. But we repeat that we will not have our
trade hampered II we can help ourselves and
we think we can.

Depart m ent.

A bill was introduced in Congress yesterday
by Mr.. Garfield which proposes very searching
and thorough investigation into all matters
connected with the Treasury and Sub Treasury
of the United States. The commission to whom
this important duty is to be entrusted is to con-
sist OF three citizens not holding any federal
of1ce-a provision emincntly desirable and
satisfactory. The power Of investigation is to
extend to all books, letters, papers, vaults and
deposits, and the report to be made to Con-
0ress is to cover every point connected with
the financial operations of the government
Such an inquiry, il entrusted to the hands of
men Of admitted competency and integ-
rity and thoroughly prosecuted. could
not fail to have healthful effect. II
would afford clearer insight into the real
financial condition of the country than the
people at present enjoy, and would establish
public confidence upon q secure basis. One
Of the points to be covered by the report
touches the sales Of gold, the purchase and
sale of bonds and other securities of the
United States the amounts and rates OF pur-
chase and sale and the amounts of commits
sions paid, with the names Of the parties to
whom they may have been paid. This subject
alone will be one of great interest to the pub
lie and will serve to set at rest the apprehen-
sion that monster jobs may be concealed un-
der such operations. The movement appears
to be q good one, and the bill, which was read
twice and referred to the Committee Of Ways
and Means will no doubt receive the earlv
and serious attention Of the committee.

conclusion which can be final or satisfactory
The Canadians claim another decisive victory.
and the Turkish troops have been compelled to
evacuate the only forts which for years they
have held in the principally Of Servis. The
"Sick Man" is rapidly sinking. Disintegration
is going on at rate which is perhaps sufficiently
rapid, and if the neighboring Powers will but
stand aloof and content themselves with being
mere onlookers, the time is not, perhaps, so
very far distant when Turkey in Europe will
be numbered with the things that were: On
the European side of the Bosphorus the Mus
sulmans are but one to four of the Christians.
1t is manifest, therefore, that it requires but
spirit and determination on the part of the
Christian populations to throw off the hated
yoke. The spirit seems at last to have been
aroused. Roumania acknowledges but the
Thessaly is arming her population and refusing
to be paciicd. Montenegro is equally defiant
with Servia. The continued success of the
Cretans and this fresh concession to the Servians
cannot fail to fan the fame which is already
rapidly spreading. The rule of the Sultan in
Europe has been maintaped hitherto by an
unwise systcm of interference. What is re-
CURED now is that he be left alone. lie. that

Strstegicai Movements ON the Impeachment

A few weeks ago the impression generally
prevailed that the impeachment agitation was
al moonshine. Next. when il began to assume
the character OF fixed design, 1t was de-
nounced as despotic and revolutionary by the
astonishcd Southern rebel press and their
allies, the copperhead organs and orators of
the North, and as certain to involve the coun-
try in another rebellion. In the next place,

all such ridiculous threatenngs against plain
constitutional proceeding on the part of Con-
gress, we are happy to announce some signs
OF recognition Of the necessities of the situa-
ton in the quarter most Immediately interested.
certain private advices we have just received
from Washington, which include the following
statements as emanating from high authority.
The impeachment movement will not be
pushed during the present session. The Ju-
dietary Committee Of the House will probably
be occupied till March in examining witnesses,
collecting evidence, and making up case.
Meantime, as we are informed, President John
son is expected to breach a compromise with
Congress on the Greeley platform Of general
amnesty to Southern rebels, State BY State,
for impartial suffrage, whites, mulattoes, ne
groes and all. This plan proposes to let each

Changes In the French Cabinet.

Tho News from France and England-Tho
Changes In the French Cabinet.
BY the cable dispatches this morning we
have further intelligence Of the changes in the
French Cabinet, which appear to have ocoa-
stoned much excitement in Paris. The retire
ment of N. Achille Fould from the Department
Of Finance Is interpreted as indicating more
warlike policy on the part of the Emperor in
relation to the Eastern question. The reforms
announced by the Emperor are accepted as
liberal concessions by the majority Of the Paris
journals, and will no doubt serve to increase
or revive his popularity with the people. The
two movements combined are charac-
teristic Of Napoleon, and have without
doubt been dictated by far-seeing policy.
A rumor prevailed that Marshal Bazaine
had been relieved of his high powers
in Mexico; but the withdrawal of the French
troops would accomplish this end without
special order
From England we are told that LORD Derby
has concluded not to present government
reform bill in Parliament. This leaves the
question of reform an open one, and probably
several Independent measures will be pro-
posed. In the meantime the agitation of
John Bright continues, the people are becom-
ing more and more earnest in their demand
for a recognition Of their rights, the presents
ton of personal petitions to Parliament is con-
templatcd, and the temper Of the masses is not
improved by the suHsrings incident to the
season and which have ALREADY melted bread

The Gold Bill Passed BY the House or
Representatives.

The Gold Bill Passed by the House or
Representatives.
The House Of Representatives yesterday
passed Gold bill, which provides for six
days notice, by advertisement in daily news
paper in New York and Washington prior to
any sale Of coin from the Treasury OF the
United States, which notice must designate
the amount to be offered. The payments for
coin thus disposed Of may be made in COM
pound interest notes with the interest accrued
thereon It is generally supposed that some
material amendments will be made to the bill
In the Senate, one Of which may fix the mini
mum reserve Of gold to be kept on hand or
within call by the government. There appears
to be well settled intention on the part of
Congress to place some restrictions on the
present power Of the Secretary Of the Treasury
to control and rule the market; power which
would be dangerous under any circumstances,
as holding out great temptations and liable To
abuse, but which becomes doubly hazardous
when entrusted to man with narrow financial
views and no little obstinacy Of opinion
When the Senate takes action in the matter we
shall be better able to Judge whether the Gold
bill will fully meet and correct the existing
evil.
