THE GUARD and Inman lines of
steamers, between New York and Liv
erpool have been racing for some
months past, and now it is reported
from New York that another race, is
soon to come off. Some morning we
shall read that one of these magnificent
ocean palaces has blown up her boilers,
burned to the water's edge. and that
two or three hundred lives have been
lost. 1t would be of more utility to
prevent a calamity by forbidding this
ocean racing than TO waste idle regrets
after the mischief is done.

WASHINGTON gossip says Mrs, Ben.
Butler was the recipient last Friday of
a formal call from Gen. Grant and wife.
AT the time of the call General Butler
was in the House. speaking on the
Army bill, and replying Eyes" to the
query, Ibid he mean TO nominate Ger.
Grant for the Presidency in 1S722" A
singular coincidence, but not at all
significant. Jenkins learns from good
authority that overtures for social
peace and recognition have been per
sistently made by Butler for some
weeks past, and SO approximately that
Gen. and Mrs. Grant have been COM
PEELED, for the sake of etiquette, 10 re.
spond, and hence the visit.

GENERAL GRANTS emphatic declara-
ton that he should not appoint a Demo-
crat to bis Cabinet, and that If Repub.
licHn President should do so the Senate
ought to refuse confirmation, will give
light only to those stupid people who
fancy that the President elect is as
short sighted as themselves. He has
never given any shadow of reason for
believing that he would go outside the

SO far, the anticipatons induged in of a return of
inst. have been completely at fault, and the result
can scarcely be accounted for on any other theory
than that some gigantic conspiracy exists in New
York, with probably ramifcations in most OF the
terest of stock gambling. But whatever the cause
the power OF absorption Is wonderful and mysterious
at the present time, and If the result OF a "bear"
movement, they WELD a power which the sooner
broken up the better for all the great interests OF the
country. ....... ..... ..... .... q q

universal sufrage on the eve OF the meeting OF the

spec6ed, the country might msunderstand the anti
the soldery and the vulgar passions Of the vulgar II
yesterdays speech had political meaning 1t would
be nothing short of threat or challenge
The Gazette de FTdnce:-It is difficult to view THIS
"reminiscences of SoferinO as a friendly demOnstra-
ton for Austria. II might be inferred that POtsdam
and the Tuileries may have hit on combination Tor
a temporary alliance.
The Opiiiior Nationale:-The public is wrong In
viewing this speech as warllke The public did not
bear in mind the fact that questions OF peace and
in the Corps Legisatif which meets on Monday, and
that the $500 900 votes recorded against Otical can
ddates have rendered impossible cOps dc theatre and
unforeseen resolutions.
The Lib7te:-This spetch does not appear to us

The Moniteur:-We hear people about us asking

ther peace nor war; A soldier speaking TO soldiers,
nothing more. II it means anything else we had
rather not inquire.
The Fays-So long as Prussia shall continue, i'm
defiance OF her solemn engagements, to prosecute
the absorption OF Germany, we shall be justified in
cherishing the memory of former wars, until an
other war wipes out their memory
The Pdtrie Independent of the intrinsic charac-
ter OF the speech, we must bear in mind several
reasons which induce us not to interpret IL in war
like sense. Those reasons may be reduced thus -
First that public opinion is very far at present from
inclining to war; second, that on the eve of the
meeting of the Chamber IL is impossible to believe
that the Government nOurishes projects and plans
relative TO which it would not previously be con-
the Government has accepted, without the arriere-
PcnSee, the words emanating from the throne what
ever their Importance in eyes, could not fail to
be one of the elements of that discussion.

THE CONTESTED ELECTIONS.
This morning Colonel Mann, representing the con-
testans in these cases, came into Court and asked
that an order should be made fixing a day certain
for the closing OF the testimony the part the
respondents, and a day for the argument of the
cases, saying that the respondents had begun their
examination about the first Monday of Nav and on
various occasions had promised speedy termina-
an early day in September for the hearing of the
argument, so that this matter involving ali the i'm
pOltant offices in the city, should he set at rest
On behalf OF the respondents Mr. Sellers said that
the diligence exercised by them would compare most
favorably with that the part of the respondents
the latter in 80 weeks had taken 935 pages of printed
testimony, while the former in 81 weeks had taken
1921 pages. He thought the testimony would be
closed in six or seven meetings from this; and he
considered such an order as Mr.. Mann asked for
would be arbitrary and hard.
Moreover, a number OF the senior counsel in the
case were out OF the city for the summer and he had
through and consideration Of two thousand pages OF
testimony, presenting the most complicated questions
OF Iacts ana newest questions of law day so early
as would ind majority of the respondents in court
without counsel.
The Judges said they would consider the matter
and announce their decision on Monday.

The Governmental Crisis i'm France Demands
of the Opposition -ROuhcr's POsitiOn-NuDo-
leon on the Qui Vive.
By Atlantic Cable
PARIS, July 10.-The governmental crisis in
France increases in intensity. The members of
the constitutional opposition in the Corps
Legislatif declare as their ultimatum that no.
thing short of the retirement of M. Rouher will
satisfy them. The Emperor desires his retire
ment, but hesitates to dismiss him on account of
the Minister'S devotion and ability in dscharging
the duties of his position. NJ. Rouher's failure
to comply with the evident wish of the Emperor
is severely criticized. Yesterday the proprietor of
one of the leading journals said:-"M. Rouher,
your time has come-leave-decamp- clear out"
al know it." answered the Minister, ''but my
wife won't resign" which is literally true as
Madame objects to give up palace honors. The
Emperor will wait, meantime, until this little
domestic trouble is settled. The majority of the
Assembly are opposed to the propositions of the
left centre, which in the first instance demands
a responsible ministry, and, secondly, the au-
tonomy of the Assembly. The Emperor is,
therefore, obliged to parley with the opposition,
the maj ajority of whom do not wish to defy him
openly, and hence the legislative deadlock
which must be brought to an end in the course
of next week.
