Ii must make the frugal and decently disposed
stockholders in the Washington and Georgetown
railroad company feel very sick to see the man
ner in which their money Is wasted by the present
management in continuing to lay down the for.

sooner or later. Meantime the company is sink

The LATE FIGHTING IN FRANCE-Elsewhere
will be found An important cable telegram from
london summing up the results Of the recent
Fighting in France, from which it appears that
the army of the Loire was successful in
piercing the Prussian line in several places, but
that Gen. Ducrotwas repulsed in his sortie from
Paris, hence no junction OF the French forces
was Effected The situation in Europe is such
that great anxiety is felt here to learn further
particulars of recent and contemporaneous
events; and the announce ment from New York
that the accumulation of dispatches there for
Europe is TO be cleared on, before we can re-
ceive any kilograms from the other side is Az
srsvsting, and gives rise in some quarters TO
the belief that the delay is from some causes
rot speciiied.

The Senatorial question in New Jersey bids

Ingly; but recently he has improved in strength,

The silly story Of GOODNESS between the gov
erBrnents of Europe and this country, which we
had occasion to deny a day OF two since, is
repeated in a modified form in one of the New
York papers Of yesterday. The whole thing is
the merest mooDshine, and had its origin In a
heated imagination or troubled conscience. 1t
is not impossible that there have been times
when the intercourse between the representa-
tive OF the Car and the Appropriate branches
OF this government was not as frequent or cor
dial as at Others; but If so, 1t will be found, we
apprehend, that such state facts was in no wise
connected with the Eastern question or the
International relations Of the two countries, but
was based entirely on considerations of per-
sonal character. Indeed, the gossips had it ct
one time that there was likely to be reor gaui-
zation Of the Muscovite embassy here, but had
1t occurred no political significance would have
been attached to 1t.
