We are pleased to see that the new Sub
Treasurer has begun his duties in such con-
scientous manner, and that, after being intro
duced to his place yesterday, he insisted
upon a thorough counting of all the funds in
the vaults of the Treasury, not only as an act
of justice to himself and his predecessor, bu;
also as a guarantee to his own sureties, who
are more or less responsible. 1t is we'll that
Mr.. Folger has shown himself 90 careful in
this matter, and if, in like way, be shall give
constant and faithful personal supervision 10 all

after to blame subdrdinates for negligence er-
rors, or culpable mistakes ~

A most frightful incident occurred at the
French Opera House in New-0rleans a few
nights since. All was going Gas merry as q

when in walked gentleman of color with his
family. The excitement was DREADFUL but, as
the management has determined to know no
White, no Black, in the box office, the 'phobists
were compelled (by self-respect. &c.) to flee
from the house, and demand their money back
again. Those who liked music, however. better
than they hated persons of color, remained,
and so did the Black gentleman, who was
perfectly respectable man, holding the re-
sponsible office of Inspector of Weights and

The nsurgent President of Cuba (Cespedes)
recently issued an order directing the destruc-
ton of all the cane-felds and plantations
lying in the regions in which his troops were
operating. He announced his determination
to destroy if necessary, all the estates in
Cuba and he justified himself in this des-
perate measure by saying that it was the pro-
ductive wealth of the island that made it so
desirable to the Spaniards, and that, with the
disappearance of this, the Spanish motive for
holding it, at its present heavy cost, would
cease. 1t now appears that the work of de-
stroying the plantations is proceeding rapidly
in many parts of the island. Our Havana
dispatch of yesterday announced the burning
of seven plantations in one locality and the
firing of O settlement in another; and our
last Havana letter told how the sugar estates
were being fired in all directions, greatly to
the alarm of the Havana merchants. The
effect of this incendary policy of Cespedes
upon the Spanish party has already begun to
show itself Our correspondent mentions that
a large meeting has been held in Havana, at
which leading men gravely urged project of
conference with the Cubans as to how the
questions at issue might best be arranged ;
and he added as fact beyond doubt that a
great part of the Spanish population of Cuba
now desire to have the war ended on almost
any terms. If things go on as they have
lately done, it is not improbable that Spain
herself will yet be very glad to have our Gov
eminent tender its good Offices in the way
of settling the Cuban difficulties.

The Pope has intimated to Archbishop Man
ming that, although Protestants cannot be
allowed, of course to take part in the ecu
menical Council, it might be possible to mako
arrangements outside of the Council by which
their questions may be answered. This is alto
gether as liberal as one body of strict church
men could expect from another. and the actual
verifcatiOn of the Pope's pleasure may, perhaps,
prove one of the most striking religious
phenomena of the age. Other facts
indicate a far moro liberal disposition
on the part of Romo than has been
supposed. Bishop Dupanloup, according to
our present dispatches. deprecates as inconsld-
erately hasty the discussion of Papal infallibil-
ity by such journals as the CiutltG Cattotlca
Cardinal Cullen repels the statement that the
Council will be anti-progressive Archbishop
Manning declares that "all the influence OF
" the Holy Father could not coerce one poor
"Carmelite friar" Archbishop Darboy OF
Paris, instead of protesting against the sitting
of discussion at the Council, as has been re-
ported is now represented as repelling the alb
surdity of the rumor that the majority of the
Bishops will smother the free expression of
opinion, and vote by reclamation the dogma
of the personal infallibility of the Roman Pom

Mr.. Washburn, ex-Minister of the United
States, returns in our columns to-day to his
old ground of hostility to the Paraguayan die
tator. Congress and the public cannot know
too well what that ground is, and now that
Gen. Mcmahon has come back from the diplo-
matte wilderness of Paraguay, let us hope that
further occasion will be offered to compare
notes. Mr.. Washburn denounces certain mis-
representations, which he charges upon Gen.
Mcmahon. and it is upon these, apparently,
that his reputation for efficiency and infexi-
biity as an officer hinges His retouching of
the portrait of Lopez must make the defense
of that probable monster q laborious task.

The work of NJ Lesseps will be magnifcently

the Canal of Suez will have place In geogra-
ply as important in one sense as the greatest
natural water-cOurses of the world. Royal
Dcrsonages of various kinds and de-

Empress, have been properly sum-
moned to pay their respects to the genius OF
NJ. Lesseps. Much ground has been dug, much

all this is only drop in the bucket compared

Mr.. Charles Sumner, whose benevolent heart
sympathizes with all living creatures, speaks,
in the lecture on "Caste" of "the Dogs in
the highest terms. Dogs" he says, are AS
cosmopolitan as man, and their instinct makes
"no discrimination of condition or complexion
in his fidelity" But Mr.. Albert Smith, in
his amusing book about Constantinople, in
forms us that the vagrant dogs of that vicin-
age-there are herds of them-have bad
habit of biting Christians and Jews In the
tenderer parts of their physical constitutions
Too many dogs in this country have a way OF
paying the like amiable attention to sheep, and
show "no discrimination between Cotswoldf
and South Downs, Merinoes and Leicesters

Bureau, they will give him some facts about
dogs which he may find edifying
