larger than that of the preceding year.
Over one million six hundred thousand
orders have been issued. transferring
$34, 054, 1874, for which $225..235 was paid
in fees. The cost of the purchaser was
therefore seven tenths of one per cent.
while the cost of the government was
only half that.

THE CLERroAL PARTY in France are said to
have refused to fight under Garibaldi. This
would seem to involve no great harmS to
France. Garibaldi was always snowy fell
low, making much sentiment and romance out
of his red shirt and slouched hat, and making
also good deal Of mischief wherever he went,
but he never accomplished anything practical.
An agitator without party-a floating waif
upon the tide of revolution wherever it rose
without purpose, guidance or direction, 1t is
very hard to see how he can do much good to
the cause of France by enistng in her armies.
France would be better without him.

How TO IMPROVE THE PoLI0g. Under the
proposed change in the superin.endency of
police, by creating three distinct divisions,
with responsible head in each, would ii not
be well for the Police Commissioners to select
men now outside Of the Police Department. |?
For example, take some good army officers of
tried ability, discretion and trmness, and place
them at the head of the several divisions.
General Mcclellan has been made Chief Engi-
neer in the important Department Of Public
Docks, aud, we believe, performs his duties-ac-
ceptably to the Commissioners and the public.
Why not, therefore, have military men in the
more important positions of chiefs of police !?
We don't want any military martinets selected
for the positions, but good, sound, resolute
men, who, having been trained and disciplined
in proper school, are capable of managing
what are called the dangerous classes" as well
as preserving the peace and protecting the
lives and property Of our citizens.

THE INDIANA ELECTIONS Later dispatches
from Indiana indicate that the vote through
Morton himself says the State has gone demo-
cratic by about 1000 majority, but that the
Legislature is still in doubt. Upon that question
ofthe Legislature, it must be bersmembered, hangs
Morton's mission to England, for he some time
ago announced his determination to keep
democratic Legislature out of the privilege Of
e!ecting United States Senator to succeed
him. Thus local State election away out in
the wilds of Hoosierdom affects the national
governments choice of an ambassador, the
personnel Of the foreign diplomats at the Court
Of St. James, aud may in consequence affect
the final settlement of the Alabama claims.

r Presidential Warning 60 Fenians and
Cubaus.

CuSaus.
President Grant has issued proclamation,
which will be found in our columns this mora
ing, the contents of which 1t will be well for
the members OF the Fenian Brotherhood and Of
the Cuban Junta to ponder carefully. II is
hard to say at which OF those bodies the pro-
clamation is more directly aimed. for 1t applies
to both with equal force, describing them as
bodies pretending to have powers Of govern
ment over portions Of the territories or dinin-
ions Of Powers with which the United States
are at peace" We believe that both the Irish
aud Cuban republics have their govern
ment organizations In the city of New York.
and thus far the proclamation applies to both
OF them. They are both also included In the
recital that they collect money for the pur-
pose or alleged purpose Of carrying on military
enterprises and of equpping armed vessels for
hostile purposes f4g
The President notifies them that all such
acts are in violation OF law and are condemned
BY all rlght-minded and law-abiding citizens,
and he gives them fair warning that hereafter
all persons found so violating tho neutrality Of
the United States shall be vigorously prose-
cuted and need not expect any clemency from
the Executive. It may be that the proclama-
tion, coming out simultaneously with the re-
ported pardon Of O'Neill and the other Fenian
officers who have been undergoing imprison-
ment for the late ridiculous raid on Canada, is
intended to assure the Canadian authorities
and people that such an exercise of Executive
clemency Is not to be taken as evidence Of any
sympathy on the part Of our government with
that absurd enterprise or it may be that It
has some connection with negotiations in re-
ference to the purchase Of Cuba. But what
ever be the secret motive for it, it will be
generally recognized BY the American people
- timely and proper warning to all who
would violate our neutrality laws.

The Coolio Ia.urrection in Pers.

The coolie insurrecton in Peru on the 4th Of
September of which we yesterday published
thrilling account by our Lima cqrrespend-
ent-was quelled by two brave men. The
atrocities committed by the coolies and their
destruction OF millions worth Of property
illustrate fearfully the cruel nature Of the
degraded class Of semi -barbarians who have
emigrated from China to Peru Not a few Of
this same degraded class will, perhaps, form
part Of the increasing Chinese immigration to
the United States. But here large number
of representatives Of higher classes-the
class Of bankers and merchants, and especially
the class of skilled laborers---has already and
will hereafter come. Here also the Chinese
immigrants Of all classes are far from being
exposed-except on the part OF certain rude
follows and political demagogues of the baser
sort, in Caiiornia-to anything like the harsh
treatment to which they have been subjected
in Peru. We have the testimony OF our Lima
correspondent to the fact that slavery in its
most revolving form is certainly preferable to
the manner in which the Chinese ere treated
on some of the sugar haciendas in Peru
Moreover, in the United States the rest
Of the population is so overwhelmingly dispro-
portionate TO any number Of Chinese immi-
grants that ara likely to arrive here during
long period of time, that if two thousand rebel
lious coolies can be put to flight by two brave
men in Peru very little danger is 10 be appre
hended at any point whatever within our
men. Our police forces would quickly put an
end to whytover insurrectionary movements
they might attempt, without being Obliged to
invoke the aid either Of the militia or Of the
regular army.

The War News from Franc..

The military situation presents no change OF
material Importance to-day, though it teens
with accounts of skirmishes and minor en-
counters, which will never serve to subjugate
France on the one hand nor to rid her OF the
Prussians on the other. The bombardment Of
Paris is likely to commence at any moment,
many Of the siege guns being already in posi-
ton. Inside the city all remains orderly and
vigilant, the troops expressing themselves
anxious TO have the Prussians attack The
opposing forces at Orleans remain as
they were reported in the dispatches
in yesterdays paper, and heavy rein
forcemeuts are being continually for
warded from Tours. General Paladine has
been placed in command Of the French forces
but it Is intimated that Garibaldi win super
sede him. General Bourbaki has been
restored to the confidence Of the gov
ernmens, he having shown that so
far from encouraging the Empress in her
hopes Of establishing her son ON the throne
he had informed her bluntly that no ono In
France would tolerate even his presence.
These are the most important changes In the
situation. Otherwise the record is filed with
the achievements Of uhlan raiders, the deeds
Of franc-tireurs, detached engagements be-
tween small bodies, the presence Of grim
epidemic produced by dead and decaying
animals around Metz, and one or two barba-
rous reprisals, which show US how rapidly the
warts verging towards organized assassination.
