An emigrant to these shores from those of
the Mediterranean might doubt the Horatian
proverb, aud conclude that he had crossed the
sea without changing either sky or mind.
The phenomenon called mirage was recently
observed in Dunbarton, N. H., where it caused
an old house in a distant valley to appear
near at hand above the surrounding hills; in
Corinth, Miss, where view of the outskirts
of the city. including portion of railroad
track and foolhardy people walking thereon,
was presented in the clouds; and also within
O few days off the coast of New Hampshire,
where it occasioned the wreck of a schooner
by misleading the crew as to the position of o
lighthouse There is another locality where
the presence of some such unsubstantial fabric
must be inferred. A fata morgdna probably
influences appearances in Cuba. To the
Spaniards, viewing matters from the outside,
it brings the pacifcation of the island and the
extinction of the rebellion; for the insurgents,
on the inner side, it unrolls pleasing pros
pect of immediate success; while each per-
ceives some part of the picture that the other
sees, but with its figures entirely reversed
after the fashion of that optical illusion.

as we'll as being the most striking indication
of an official purpose to hasten, even moro
than has been popularity expected, the long
desired return to specie payments. We hail
these letters, particularly that of Judge Hoar, as
suspicious of good and we do not need to say
that they point to a consummation which we
have long believed speedily possible, and which
we believe might now, by rigid determination,
be obtained much more speedily than even our
most sanguine financiers have accustomed them
selves to believe

trasts; for while the magnificent Pasha is pinch
ing his poor Sheks to give all the world
dinner, his master, the Padshah, is cutting
down the salaries Of all the Government en-
rloyes in Constantinople to make up for his
gorgeous losses during the visit of the Empress.

Fortunately for the human race, Lopez has only
one mother, certain number of brothers, and
"A limited quantity of relations, or there is no
knowing-to follow present repOrts-the extent
of the manifold murders with which he might
shock the domestic world. If there be any
truth in current history, this man is the very
Troppman of Dlctators. AS it is now reported
that he has killed his mother, one of his
brothers, and several other persons, for a re-
cent conspiracy, he has probably lost every
relation he had in the world.

We print elsewhere letters from Little Rock,
giving a graphic account of the political stu
alton in Arkansas, which will repay careful
reading. Making all due allowance for personal
feeling and partisan bias on the part Of our
correspondent, the condition of af-
fairs In Arkansas is lamentable. Gov.
Clayton's highhanded movements clearly
indicate disposition to rule absolutely the
Republican party of that State for his personal
ends. or to ruin it; but it is TO be hoped that
the intelligence, energy, and patriotism of the
neople of Arkansas will be equal to the emer-
Rency. DO =

Our correspondent at the Georgia State Fair
does not give us reason to think that the great
promise of that undertaking is likely to be

COUNTRY OF THE PLATE.
. fts Trade wlth ,he United stntes.

The Buenos Ayres Tri6aaa has just pub
lished some interesting statistics on the COM
merce of the United States with the countries
of the Plate. 1t appears from the 1rjbun0's
figures that the trade in flour, which was at one
time very considerable, is now almost extinct.
Thus in 1889 the United States sent us 27,000
barrels, and in 1854 the importation reached
"a, 900 barrels, while in 1868 it was not more
than 200 barrels This decline is attributable
to the extension of wheat cultivation in the
Plate, nearly all the flour now consumed in
these regions being obtained from indigenous
sources. The trade in the article of refined
sugar is in nearly the same position, with this
difference however, that it is the product of
the French refneries which has superseded
that of the United States The imports of
this article from the States have fallen from
IA. 600 barrels in 1860 to 1900 barrels in 1868.
Petroleum figures very high in the list, the
importation being about 750,O 900 gallons a
year. Lumber shows large increase, the
figures having risen from l4,OOo,OOO feet
in 1859 to $4,000, 600 feet in 1868.
For the last six years the importation OF
Carolina rice has ceased altogether but corn

Butler Wants War.

General Butler said that he is in
favor OF an Immediate war with En-.
gland, and that such step was dcsira
bic at this time, as Il measure Of econ
omv, inasmurh rs it would stop our
excessive impurtatioms. and compel us
to der0ur our own resources. lie also
said it would discontinue the twaddlc
abou: the Alabama claims and the en-
pcusivc cable kilograms Of the State
Department.. lie said that such war
would be purely naval. and that with
our experience Of the past eight years.
we would be able to sweep tho entire
ENGLISH navy and commerce from the
seas. and that wO would bring back
with us enough booty to pay the whole
cost OF the enterprise, and for ihc in
Jury done our own commerce by En-
.ii> rebel pirates, during the war, be-
sides.
The above sounds very Eutlcrish.
No doubt lie spoke the sentiments Of
Butler. Booty! aye, no doubt he
thinks that has charming sound in
the ears Of the American people. Ben
will find. however, that the American
people would rather have square up
fight than any such privatccrins ras.
ralitv rs is here suggested. The
genius not only Of the American pco-
pie is opposed to privatcrring. rs i
means of redress for national Sricvan-
.cs, but the whole civilized world has
declared against such practice. The
dra Of priyatccring, tilIibustcring cx-
petitions is obsolete, and no one 1T
his age Of the world con,rmplatcS
holding private property responsible
for National crimes.

the Alabama Claims.

Although there j. no prospect that
there will be immediate action on the
part of this Government looking to II
settlement OF the dinbnm0 claims, the
question nevertheless engages the at
tcntion Of tho President and Cabinet
more than any other foreign topic. In
fact il i almost the only subject con-
ucctcd with our foreign affairs which
calls for consideration. One of the diff
iicult points about the whole matter in
dealing with it automatically, Is that
our own Supreme Court recognized the
hc!ligrrcmcv OF the South seventeen
days before the Queens proclamation
WIS issued. and. 50 far 1T least rs
Spain j. concerned, We arc OH record
in our diplomatic correspondence rs
thaukin" that country for not having
given more substantial aid and coun-
irnanrr To HE rebellion. 1t may tcml

be- told on the very best authority that

Intention OF rrHorin. To Immediate

brlii.rrrnl attitude without the Sravcst
pr"vUralion. The President and. his
Cabinet arc entirely in accord OH the
point that u foreign war would be cN'

Although We arc not by amy means sc
