The Doubtful Condition of Europe.

Our latest news from Europe Is Of q singu-
lar and IN some respects doubtful character.
Spain Is still unsettled, although 1t may be
taken for granted that reconstructed Spain,
in the first instance, IS 10 be limited or, as
some would put il, constitutional monarchy
This of course viii be a triumph OF liberalism,
and will on all hands be 80 regarded We
should have been glad to see Spain making
the experiment Of republic; but IL such an
experiment is as yet dangerous we shall rejoice
TO fud that Spain has made some substantial
progress and that she has not encountered all
The risks Of a revolution for nothing. We are,
as we ought to be, grateful TO sec the popular
cause progressing.
IL Is manifest from our latest dispatches and
letters from Europe that the success OF The
Spanish revolution is already producing its
natural fruit in France The French govern
ment is VIGOROUSLY i'll at ease. The prosecu-
tons Of the press, of which we gave 80 full an
account yesterday, indicate at once the state Of
tile popular pulse and the sengihveness OF the
French government. If these prosecutions
mean anything they mean that large section OF
the French people are dissatisfied and that the
government is afraid. II the prosecutions
do not mean SO much they mean nothing at
all. Napoleon is not the man to apply the
screw unless he considered it necessity. A
few days ago We were told that conspiracy
hal been discovered and that the object Of
this conspiracy was to overthrow the existing
government Either there was some such dis
covery or there was not. Tfthcre was, France

Scientific Lectures.

We must call special attention to the an
nouncement that course Of scientific lectures
of unsurpassed interest and value win begin
on Wednesday evening, November 25, at Stein
way Hall. The trustees Of the American In
stitute have secured for this laudable purpose
the services of twelve distinguished scientists.
President Barnard, of Columbia College, will
lecture on the microscope and its revelations;
Professor Alexander, of Princeton College, on
the telescope; Professor Guyot, also Of Prince
ton College, on the barometer; Professor Sill
linan, of Yale College, on the philosophy Of the
teakette; President Dawson, of McGill College,
Montreal, on the primeval fora; Mr.. James
Hall, of Albany, State geologist, on the evolu-
ton of the North American Continent; Pro-
fessor Horsford of Cambridge, on the philo-
sophy of the oven; Dr. t. Sterry Hunt, of
Montreal, on primeval chemistry; Professor
Deremus, Of the College of the City of New
York, on the photometer; Mr.. Waterhouse
Hawkins, of London, on comparative zoology;
Professor Cooke, OF Harvard University, on
the spectroscopc, and Mr.. William j. Nc
Alpine, President OF the American Society Of
Canada East, on modern engineering. These
lectures will appear excessively on the 18th
OF November; the 4tb, 18th, 10th, 23d and Goth
of December; the 9Th, 18th, 22d and 9th Of
January, and the Sd and 10th of February. 1t
is an suspicious sign of the times when our
most thoughtful and learned college presidents
and professors thus present in popular form
the results Of their studies and experiments.
We have often alverted TO radical changes
requisite in our system of education, and par
ticularly to the increasing and desirable pre-
ponderance of the scientific element In tho
culture demanded by modern life. We are
glad that the movement in this direction is
headed by the very men most capable OF wisely
directing it,

Another Erie War in the Courts.

Wall street is an interesting locality these
days. The great fight between the financial
giants has been renewed, and the object in
dispute Is the oft-litigated Erie. Unusual pro-
portions arc given to the present struggle by
the presence of the fabulously wealthy August
Belmont, the champion of a number, Of foreign
banking houses, who, with Daniel Drew, was
caught 'short" in an Erie speculation. The
clique OF Erie directors who produced the
recent stringency in money, broke the stock
market and then made raid on gold and sent
il up to 1877 have been suddenly arrested in
their career by an injunction Of the Supreme
Court, issued by Judge Sutherland. The ale
cations on which the injunction was issued
embrace an affidavit Of Mr.. Drew confessing
his connection with the breaking Of the Erie
''corner" last winter and with the clique in
making money tight to accomplish the recent
break in the stock market Msmanagement
on the part of these directors is charged in all
the afidavits and the secret Of the purchase or
Pixies Opera House at eight hundred and fifty
thousand dollars and like real estate transac-
lions unravelled. The injunction was served
during the day and there was the widest
excitement over the eventual effect in the
value OF Erie stock. The price of the latter
nuctuated from 80 to AZ, and closed between
10 and 90. The clique are said, however, to
have got the start of their opponents by oh
tanning an order for the appointment Of q re-
ccivcr out Of their own number, which order
was granted four days ago. Nothing is known
definitely Of this order; but, If received, il is
probably held TO await further movements by
the Belmont-Drew party. TO guard against
any trouble from the injunction it Is further
stated that the clique sold all the gold with
which they made the Corner deposited the
greenbacks in the banks, used certified checks
with which to purchase seven millions more Of
gold, aud then transferred the precious metal
to Jersey City yesterday to place 1t beyond
the reach of the New York courts. Such are
the reports and rumors concerning The great
mudde, out of which IL will be impossible to
extract The truth until the courts get under
way with the legal proceedings which are 10

stands, and will lose nothing as Il develops

Opera Bouae and Opera Italian.

OpCra 0Ouu0 ana Optru AboaiAus
II any one supposed that the many signal
failures to give Italian opera permanence
mere were to deprive us of our usual musical
enjoyments they were mistaken, for the magic
power OF Ofenbach and opera 5oufe have
created an enchantment which seems to have
spellbound the community. For many years
Italian opera was regarded as a necessity. and
the decline of the old Academy was bemoaned
by many as a misfortune. But it would an
pear that this notion has becn dispelled by
''La Grande Duchesse," ''Genevieve de Bra
bant," and that musical Mormon, ssBarbe
Bleue," each of whom, under the influence Of
Bateman and Grau, has fully supplied the
place of the heavier works of the Italian com
posers. AS long as the people are willing to
crowd the Theatre Francois and Pixies mag
nificent Opera House, to enjoy the sparkling
music and delightful absurdities OF Offenbach
and his librettists they have no reason to com
plain that the few late attempts at establishing
a spasmodic Italian opera have proved such
dismal failures. 1t is evident now that we
have educated ourselves into doing without it.
VhCtACi cAos oS 6oou " OIL cVll ouuCaClOu
we presume not to say. The votaries of OPERA
6oute are perhaps the best judges of that.
We know, however, that the latter class OF
amusements has taken immensely; that
although the sGrand Duchess" when repro
duced at both theatres, at the beginning of
this season, halted little for few
nights, it was not because the public
had tired of opera bou1e so much as
that the work had for q time been
hackneyed. But we see now 'sGeneyieve de
Brabant" refreshing the public taste in this
direction and filing the French theatre every
night in spite of the trenchant attacks made
upon that opera by the very straightlaced and
very, very moral critics. We observe also
that the ssBarbe Bleue"-hideous wretch as he
is, but done up to such charming musc-has
his thousands of admirers at Pixies Opera
House. No doubt when people begin to tire
Of him Bateman is quite prepared to substi-
tute Ogenbach's last wild ebullition, 'sPeri-
ch6le," which is a late sensation in Paris, and
J. Grau, always on the QaS oige, will follow
''Genevieve" with something fresher still.
OGenhach's busy brain can furnish enough
new operas to keep both of our 50ute theatres
employed for the whole winter season, and VIC
may therefore manage TO survive the loss Of
italian opera, for time at least.

General Grant in New York.

Like ''all the world and the rest of man
and cosmopolitan attractions of this city, Gen
eral Grant seems to like it. 1t is subject for
study to him, we suspect, hardly less interest
ing, though less exciting, than the movements
of great army in a grand battle; for here 1t
is the battle of life, in all its combinations and
complications and ever-changing phases, fast
horses and all. Moreover, the General, no
doubt, enjoys here welcome respite from the
pertnacious and never firing office-seeking,
new President worshippers, who await him at
every door and every street corner in Wash
ington. But how long this exemption will last
here is another question. We fear that at the
end of week, with the General still here, we
shall have an exodus from Washington this
way equal to that which went out to the Penn
sylvania October election. But the man who
danked out Buckner, and Beauregard, and
Pemperton, and Bragg, and Lee, and JEFF
Davis WILL perhaps, be equal to the task of
thanking the ofice-seekers. He may have
good deal of travelling to do, at the rate of
two-forty, but the General has Bonners Dexter
at his service, and when Dexter fails he can
try vanderbilts Mountain Boy-''a rum un to
look at, but good TN to co. Meantime, who
is to. pay the travelling expenses Of all these
pilgrims in pursuit of the great hero Of the
war, the chosen champion Of peace, and the
man who is soon to be made master of the
whiskey ringsG 'Let us have peace
THE MAYoRALTY QUESTION. republic
cans are anxious that their party shall make
no nomination from their own ranks for Mayor
in the approaching charter election, but shall
disregard mere partisan considerations for the
public good, and elect to that Office the best
man they can find on the democratic side.
This ia o very commendable and timely sug-
gestion. Grant is about to take control Of the
general government, and 1t Is well TO show
him that in making selections FOR Office the re-
publicans ignore mere party considerations,
and are willing to 60 outside the narrow
limits Of political organization in their sclcc-
ton Of the most fitting man to Gil public
position.
