DIRECTOR DELMAR, Of tho Bureau Of Statistics,
has caused TO he compiled all abstract Of tho re-
ports Of tho examination OF vessels having on
board passengers, other than cabin passengers,
which arrived at tho port OF Now York daring tho
month of July, 1867 from which it appears that
tho to:al number of vessels examined Was ca, of
which 80 wero steamships and 81 sailing vessels.
Tho average length OF the steamships voyage wns
13 lays and 13 hours OF the sailing vessels, "A
dayB and s hours. Tho total number OF passon-
gers brought, 1889, of which 1857 were mnlcs
and 9GS2 females; 20 273 were over eight years Of
age, and 412G under eight years. Totnl number OF
Deaths IS, OF which % were males and % females;
over eight years of ago, IL; under, 3G. Tho follow
ing vessels brought passengers in oxccss of tho
number allowed by law. Anton Gunhcr, from
Bremen, allowed 232 brought 2si Etna, from
Liverpool, allowed Gas, brought T9i, ths
case was reported to tho Collector for prosccu-
tion); tho Ctv Of London, from Liverpool, WAS en-
titled to bring S601, and brought 800; the Guy Of
Paris, from Liverpool alloweI to bring 742, and
brought s51t; bark &ella, from Brnmcn, allowed
3Il, brought 312; bnrk ArislIdcs, from Bremen, nl
10 scd 244, and brought 2i6j. Tho Antworp ship
G. Baccdricck, which lost 18 passengers by bowel
diseases, caused by insufficient food and bad
water, and which had no surgeons Oh board, has
undergone official ecrutiny. The whole course of
immigration returns hns lately been the subject OF
discussion between the Director Of tho Bureau Of
Statistics and tho Castle Garden authorities, and
in future greater light is expected to be thrown
upon this matter from Now York.
IT IS WITH orEN-A1R POLITICS as with opon-ar
sermons, says the Saturday Reuieto, each in its
way is the lullest and npttcst, tho most monoto-
nous and least attractive Of human uttcrances.
We sometimes aro driven to suspect that intellect
and out-of-tloor speaking arc lrrcconcilablc. 1t
would seem to be oniy among the lower creatures
that language is fitted for tho open air. 70 roar
aid below and scream, and hiss, not to talk, is
out-of-tloor language. Tho gift of human speech
is too delicate anil refined i'll its connection with
thought to DO trusted to rude contact with the
natural clements. Even IN accomplished orator,
when obliged to below, can think OF nothing but
his voice and under such circumstances tho only
end and object OF public speaking ID simply un-
attainable. Tho man least accomplished in
mind and thought and tho art OF persuasion,
is the best fitted for Hyde Park ; and both ie-
lgion and politics are too sacred and important to
be thus debnsed. And this is the real and solid
argument against open-air meetings for serious
objects; they lower tho tono of social life and
tend TO obscure its highest aims. II is therefore
for tho public good that we should tako care,
though We cannot prohibit at least not to promote
and encourage, what is really social evil. Among
savages, shorting and yelling for the Nero sake of
noso legitimate, because natural, modes Of
exercising such influence aB barbaroua folk arc
alono capable of apprcciating. Some thinkers
tell us that relapse into barbarian is afcr all,
not European impossibility; and one would think
that i'll Hyde Park We arc but stepping backward
to what Zulus and Maoris may one day bo i'm
proved out OF.
BY 4 CABLE DISPATCH from London, says tho New
York Herald, of Saturday, dated yesterday oven-
ing, We havo report to tho effect that tho treaty
negotiations concluded between NAPOLEON and
FRANCIS JOSEPH ut Salzburg, for tho formation OF
South German Confederation, under tho prcsi-
dency Of Austria, have resulted in ''signsl fail
uro," and that tho Bavarian Government has for
warded positive refusal in reply to the invitation
OF their imperial majesties asking tho King to az
sent to and join tho Bund. Should this intelligence
provo correct, as is worry probable, NAroLEos's
prestige will have received another very damaging
blow before tho peoples and the growing union
Of tho hereditary rulers by ''dyine right" will bo
still moro firmly comented thereby. II will haye
been demonstrated that Bavaria, oven il assured
OF tho support both. Of Franco and Austria, daro
not ally herself rcactionist against tho over
poweriDg yoico Of North Germany, pronounced ID
favor Of national progress as heraldod and con-
ducied by BISMARCK toward united Fathcrland
and TINT BosAPAnTE cannot bend Europe to his
will, even II his vast army should be reinforced by
tho roorganized logions OF reconstructed Hun
gary. Bavaria is placed in dangerous position
from which sho cannot completely eItricato her
self except by hearty endorsement OF the prus-
sian policy. Hor hidden sympathy with Austria
cannot avnil her my, and prolonged hesitation
may ond in converting her territory into great
battle field, from which hor crown may disappear

lowing single example will explain what things
