New-York tribune., 1867-02-06

The millers Of Troy, in communication to
The Troy Daily Times, complain of the action
of the Farmers Club in the matter of bad -four.
They say that the great quantity of unsound
-four now in market is owing in large meas
ure to the wet seasons of the past two years
and the consequent deterioration of much of
the Western wheat and they add that the
story reported by the Committee of the Club,
of Troy Inspector who passed, rs superfine,
flour which had been rejected in New York. is
untrue; there having been no inspector in Troy
for the past fifteen years.
OF course, bad seasons help TO make bad flour;
and millcrs make more, by mixing poor wheat
with good and by other adulterations. IL is
not expected that everybody should have first
rate flour; the matter of complaint Is that those
who want it and are willing TO pay for it can't
get it the wheat that ought to be ground into
superfine flour is used to raise the average of
damaged and inferior grain. This is why good
flour bears tho extraordinary premium OF ~ or

HOW ARE We TO UNDERSTAND THk
NORTH WESTf


This country is now debtor to what Elijah
POg1am would call the decrepit, bankrupt ef-
fete despOtisms Of Europe, not much if any less
than round Billion Of Dollars. We owe them
very largely ON National Securities; on loans
to States and Railroads; on Railroad Stocks,
&c, &c. Not dollar less than Fifty Millions
per aunum are required to pay the interest on
cur aggregate foreign debt, without at all re-
duciDg the principal. In other words: If We
sell -Four Hundred Millions worth per annum,
and buy Three Hundred and Fifty Millions
worth, we leave no balance on the right side of
the ledger, but barely square the account. OF
course, when we buy more than we sell, our
debt is fearfully augmented.
While we were fighting for the life of the
Nation, we borrowed at ruinous rates. and ran
in debt wherever We could. That could not be
helped; at all events, it cannot no,O be helped.
But, the moment peace returned, we should
have stopped borrowing and begun to pay off.
And yet III the year 1866 we increased our For
eign Debt not much, if any, less than Two Humid
red Millions of dollars. That is to say: we
bought metals, fabrics, wares, notions, gewgaws
and fripperies, to the value of One Hundred
and Fifty Millions more than our exported pro-
duce and specie would pay for, and we sent
abroad and sold Two Hundred Millions worth
of promises to pay-mainly six per cent.
bonds Of our Federal GOyernment-to balance
the account British three per cents sell in the
money markets of the continent fully. fifteen
per cent. higher than our six per cents: in other
words, the promise Of the British Government
to pay three dollars per annum is held of far
more value than the promise of our Govern
ment to pay Sir dollars per annum. And we
virtually say to mankind: "The estimate is
|cOrrect: Take our National promises to pay
"at seventy-five cents on the dollar, and hand
"Over your gewgaws by the ship-lOadm
Men and brethren how long can this go on ?
How long will Europe give even such prices
for Oru obligations when we value them so
lightlyf We can comprehend the Pennsylvania
inflationists They mean +" Give us o good,
stiff Tariff. and we can pay as we go, in
spite of balloon prices" They are sadly
mistaken: for initiation makes orr whole
frontier leaky as sieve, and fills tho country
with foreign goods in spite of a high tariff
Put the duties up TO high-water mark and lln-
limited issues of irredeemable paper will tide
over it.
But when the North West votes almost solid
for Initiation and against Protection, whnt are
we to understand Does she suppose that we
can go on piling up foreign debt foreverf If,
in state Of peace, with general health and
plenty we are to add Two Hundred Millions
per annum to the principal of our debt, where
are we TO stOpf How shall we even seem to
care for sOlyencY. II. In state Of profound

George w. Mclean was appointed Street
Commissioner in December last, to fill va
cancy occasioDcd by the resignation of Charles
G.. Cornell, who adopted that course TO escape
an official investigation Of his official conduct.
The appointment of Mr.. Mclean was cordially
indorsed by the press and public, who sup
posed he Would promptly purify the Depart
ment. This expectation has been disappointed,
and Tweed and three other Supervisors who
held the principal positions in the Department,
still remain in control. Mr.. McLcan's excuse
that he is compelled to retain these persons on
account of their influence at Albany, is un-
worthy Of his previous reputation as man of
honesty and common sense. The new Com
missioner must have great confidence in the
power Of rascaity, if he believes that the
Legislature of this State is controlled by these

A correspondent in El Paso,s1'cxas, gives us
a suggestive picture of the progress of recon
structiOn in his neighborhood. 1t appears that
FL Paso and Preside Counties, constituting the
Eleventh Judicial District, had uniformly been
governed before the war by the worst sort of
chiyalry, and that when these gentlemen ran
away to join their fellow Rebels in tho interior,
carrying all the money and valuables they
could find with them, the local offices fell into
the hands of Union men. On the collapse Of
the Rebellion the old office-holders came back,
expecting to resume their former political pre-
eminence. Our correspondent continues:

had brought with them from San Antonio Tor this

The Speech of tho Queen at the opening of
the English Parliament yesterday is sent us
over the Cable this morning. OF the do
mestic matters to which 1t aludes, the
most important are Parliamentary Reform
and the question of Land Tenure in Ireland.
With regard to the former the speech removes
all doubt as to the intentions of Lord Derby's
Government. A Reform bill is to be intro
duced into Parliament but whether the meas
ure will meet the just expectations OF the
Reformers is yet to be seen. AS to the latter
Mr.. Bnght's efforts will not have been in vain
should they lead to the enactment of measure
of substantial justice to the tenant farmers OF
Ireland. 1t is something gained that the griev-
GUS wrong against which he protests is prac-
tically admitted by Tory Ministry England,
it will be seen, will continue to stand aloof
from the cause of the struggling Christians of
Crete. Toward this country the sentiments of
the speech are friendly, giving hope of an early
settlement of existing differences.

Mr. Seward, un der date of Feb. 1, replied TO
the House resolution inquiring what had be-
come of the iaws repeating the Presidents
amnesty power. and regulating Ten1torlal

appears that the President suppressed these
laws, and did not send them to tho Secretary
for official publication until Jan. 81. Having
found out that it was by Mr.. johnson that the
laws of the United States were pocketed' there
remains to be discovered the reason of this ex-
traOrdinary usmpation. On that point Mr.
Seward throws no light.

The Committee of the British and Foreign
Anti-Slavery Society, in conjunction with similar
bodies in France and Spain, have determined
to hold an International Anti-Slayery
Conference in Paris on the second or
third week of June next. The programme
Of the discussions embraces the slaye-trade,
the abolition of Slavery where it still
exists, and the results of emancipation. This
Ia the first International Conference of the kind
that has ever been held, and will, we hope, give
a new impulse to the speedy extirpatiOn of the
slave-trade and Slavery, and to the education
of the freedmen all over the world.

The Bankrupt bill was yesterday amended
by the Senate, and, being pressed to vote,
was defeated by 90 Nays to 20 Yeas. This was
the result of the objections of Mr. Wilson
and few other Senators to some OF

deeply regret that any difference OF
opinion as to details should endanger
the failure of the great principle of justice the
bill embOdies. Its passage is demanded by the
business Of the country, now weighed down
