The Iuternnl Revenue MIDDLE.

There will be, no doubt, serious derange-
mcnt and complication in the collection of the
revenue and management of the Internal
Revenue Bureau in consequence of the diff
Guilty between the President, Secretary Of
the Treasury and Commissioner Rollins. There
have been all along most stupendous frauds
upon and in this department., and we may ex-
pect to hear Of still more and greater on &C
count of the disorganization now existing.
The radicals Of Congress, in their bitterness
against the President and determination to
take away his executive power, have left one
of the most important branches of the gov
eminent dsorganized and without any fixed
responsibility. This will cost the country,
probably, many millions Of dollars, through
losses in the revenue. The Presidents hands
are tied; he can do nothing. And 1t Is said
this autocrat, Rollins, placing himself above
the President, declines TO resign unless he can
procure such successor as will be acceptable

voters has already fallen short of the
estimated number In some places. The
city of Glasgow would, it was thought,
have an addition Of seventy thousand to its
constituency, but it is found that the number
will not reach forty-seven thousand, owing to
the poverty of the working classes and default
in the payment of rates. Five thousand per-
sons have been struck off the roll as being
actual paupers themselves, and eighteen thou
sand others said they could not pay within the
time. In Liverpool the rates of the working
classes were being paid, to great extent, from
the funds of political clubs; but in the radical
quarters of the city there were large additions
to the voters roll by voluntary and prompt
payments.
What between the time and trouble required
for attendance in the registration courts, and
the many technicalities to be observed in fur
nishing proof it is very likely that the British
democratic element will not be so largely rein
} forced under the Reform bill at the first regis
tration as was imagined-a matter of great
present consequence to Mr.. Disraeli. 1t is as
serted that the newly registered voters cannot
vote at the next general election should it take
place in November. The former Registration
acts enabled persons whose names were on the
annually revised lists to vote at any elections
which were held after the last day of NOvem-
Der, but one of the sections of the recent Re-
form act provides that the register shall hence
forth take effect from the st Of January in
each year-a ground Of much prospective
hope to the Premier.
In the meantime Mr.. Disraeli, powerful as
David in prayer and dignified as Solomon, will
analyze the social condition of the kingdom
with the keen eye of a political economist.
Beneath the line of enfranchsement he will see
nine hundred and sixty thousand paupers
seething in the warehouses; without vote or
hope, who, like Dickens Mr.. PlOrnish, will
assure him they only "know'd that it wasn't
put right by them that undertook that line of
business and that il didn't come right of itself
He will find two millions more being gradually
dragged down to pauperism and disfranchse-
ment by the pressure of the poor tax and other
drafts on their scanty revenues; he will see
men stand away from tne registration courts
fearing to say they have an income lest they
be taxed and will also behold thousands of
voters so near to pauperism that, as in the
case of the forty shilling freebooter in Ireland,
if donkey owned by one Of them died he
would lose his qualification for want of in
come or non-payment of rent or rates,
and find out, ''by CORA, the poor haste had
the vote. and not me-" After such review Pre-
mer Disraeli will be likely to arrive at the
conviction that it is not ''put right and hasten
to head off his opponents by granting univer-
sal suffrage and inviting the British nation at
large to deliver free opinion as to the destiny

Won Beusf on Austria and Germany.

In his late speech at the great banquet in
Vienna Baron Won Beust took a broad and
comprehensive view Of the question of German
unity-such, indeed, as might be expected
from Minister who has done so much
for Austria in the late war and is at the same
time so thoroughly German in his thoughts and
affiliations. While speaking of recent wars he
used happy sentiment when he said that
Cabinet wars are no longer made at the present
believe with equal propriety that because
storms burst in the sky they are formed in the
upper regions of the atmosphere and are not
due to the corporations rising from the ground.
This is a very polished figure of speech and If
ii is not strictly true just now in its interpreta
to the level of their dignity and comprehend
the majesty of their power. II unfortunately
happens, however, that most wars have here
tOfore been Matched in Cabinets. conceived in
the brains of politicians and conducted in the
interest of dynasties. Let us accept the ass,i-
rance of NJ. Won Beust that European wars are
hencefOrth to be characterized by none of these
features; that if Germany is to be again iu-
volved in conflict it shall be at The will of the
German people rather than of the princes.
Prospect Of n September session of Congress.
The present aspect Of things in the recon
structed Southern States is decidedly demo-
cratic The negroes are rapidly deserving the
radical for the democratic camp. Democratic
barbecues are bringing over the blacks by
thousands, with their convincing arguments of
roast pig, roast lamb, roast beef, roast ears,
corn pone and corn whiskey; for these first
principles are, to great extent, irresistible
with the plantation Niger. The Southern
democratic whites are accordingly making
vigorous campaign of il, because they feel
sure Of the negro balance of power in nearly
every reconstructed State. The Southern
white managing radicals, or ''carpet baggers,"
are correspondingly depressed, from the demo-
cratic drift of large balance of the negro
vote. Accordingly the new radical Senators
and Representatives in Congress from the re-
constructed Southern States are moving heaven
and earth for September session Of Congress,
in view of some assistance to their radical State
authorities from Washington. They say that
reign of terror prevails against the poor,
ignorant blacks; that the Ku Klux Khan will,
ifleft unchecked, show them no mercy; that
all the arms in the Southern States are in the
hands of the disloyal whites, and that the
State authorities will be powerless to protect
the blacks at the polls unless furnished with
arms by Congress. To the applications already
made by Southern Governors for arms the
Secretary of War has responded that under
the existing laws he has no authority to fur
nish arms. II Is probable, therefore, that
these appeals from the Southern ''carpet-bag-
gers" will result in September session of
Congress, and it is probable, too, that some
legislation will follow to strengthen the radi-
Gals in the South. which will weaken them in
the North. Nous cerrons.

TIE OLD QUARANTINE GROUNDS. We un-
derstand that negotiation is at present going
on for the sale of the old Quarantine grounds
by private contract, and two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars has been stated as the
price to be paid by the purchasers. This is a
very curious negotiation. The property has
been valued as high as a million dollars if
Quarantine were entirely removed from the To-
cality. The Governor should look carefully
into this matter. The consummation of such a
lob on the eve Of his retirement from office
would scarcely aid him in his future aspira-
tons.

PAYMENT OF THE RERrL DRBr. Some of
the radical papers aud stump speakers are en-
deavoring to create the impression that the
democrats under the influence of Southern
politicians might assume the payment of the
rebel debt it they get into power again. This
is about as likely us that the clouds will pour
down a shower of gold coins. This sort of
talk and these speculations are all partisan po-
ltical claptrap. The constitutional amend
ment has settled this question. aud If il had

THE EARTHQUAKE IN VIRGISIA.-T
Enterprise of yesterday says Last night
four distinct shocks OF an earthquake oc-
CURED in this CITY between the hours OF 9
and 10 o'clock. The first shock lasted about
three seconds and was very severe indeed
sending everybody into the streets; the Sec
ond was almost if not quite as severe as the
first, while the third and fourth were tolera-
bly, light. The shocks were felt very plainly
by those in the underground works, and there
was terrible rumbling heard. Some Of
the miners say that it sounded as though the
whole upper part Of the mite had caved in
and immense quantities of rock were turl-
bling down the shaft. The big 300-h
power engine Of the Savage works was
stopped by the first shock, and it was with
difficulty started up again. David Bowie,
superintendent of the Gould & Curry mine,
informs us that the earthquake was felt at
the lowest point of the Bonner shaft. The
men thought something was falling down
the shaft and got out Of the way. At the
$50 foot level it was felt very perceptibly.
The earthquake was slightly felt in San
Francisco, was quite severe in Sacramento,
very severe at Fort Churchill, and strongly
shook-up Carson City, Washoe City, Gold
Hill, Silver City, Dayton, Austin, and in
short was felt in every town in this State and
California. The vibrations are thought BY
most persons who observed them to have
been in rortheriy and southerly direction.

EXPRESSIVE OF Our SENTIMENT on THE

Louisville Journal, gets off the following: II
there is anything on earth, in the way Of sta
pie or fancy dry goods. that l absolutely
adore. it is white petticoas-a very white
one Of course and il there is anything in
the same line that 1 absolutely do not adore.
but so far from it on the contrary, quite
the reverse" it is colored one. l have
always thought that snowy petticoat and
pair of snowy stockings, with pretty girl
concealed in them, possesses more gilded
and sugar-coated enchantment for the re-
fined and poetic soul than any other objects
upon which the sun shines, or has ever
shone. OF course this presupposes pretty
foot and ANGLE with gaiter bOots-nOt slip
pers-to match. Not one in a thousand of
Heavens last best gifts can, in the presence
Of artistic or critical taste, wear slippers
with any degree of safety. The foot and
ANGLE must be the perfection of symmetrical
beauty, or the slipper is nuisance, which
should be abated, if it cannot be done other
wise, by Legislative enactment. When my

Of girls and should detect her in the act of

the slightest doubt, especially if we hap |
pened to be living in Chicago, that We would
find ourselves involved in a divorce suit be- |
fore we we're ten years older. A girl who 10 |

CHfNAMAN MuRDERED.-The Trespass OF
last evening has the following account OF the
murder of Chinaman:
Yesterday afternoon the body Of China
man was found on the side-hill, below the
Sugar Loaf, in Six-mie Canon, about two
miles from the Gould & Curry mill. When
found life was extinct, and appearances in
Dictated that his clothes had been rifed of
whatever he had about him of any value-his
countrymen say he had about $50 in gold
coin. He was shot through the head, and
doubtless instantly killed. His body was
brought to X street, and this forenoon Coro-
ner Gartreli held an inquest, at which moth
ing was elected tending to lead to the discov-
cry Of the assassin. 1t is believed BY many
that an Indian committed the murder, but
our conviction is that it was some miserable
wretch of white man, plenty of whom in
this community would murder a fellow crea-
ture for far less than $50.
