STILL ANOTHER WAR CLoUD-If peace is ever
restored again in Europe it is to be feared there viii
arise of individuals almost as fierce as the
OF nations now progressing. What with the private
correspondence that has been made public, and the
indscreet observations made by individuals respect
ing each other to newspaper correspondents who
have had interviews with them, there is every rea-
son to anticipate small unpeasantness when
everybody meets again in peace. For instance, If
Changarnier, Bourbaki, BazaiRe come together next
year in Paris at small dinner party, 1t Will require
much brilliant conversation on the part OF their
hostess to prevent an awkwardHess between her
guests BourbsN certainly shrugged His shoulders
the other day when BazaiRe's name was mentioned
by NJ Gambetta at Tours, and the shrug imme-
diately telegraphed all over Europe, and by the
Atlantic cable to America; and now Changarnier
has told a newspaper correspondent that Bazaine
was incompetent and selfish. Everybody who was
shut up in Metz seems to be quite agreed upon the
point of BaZaine's selshness: whether he insisted
on taking more than his share OF horseaesh
at dinner scOoped out the remaius OF the
salt-celar is not stated, ana probab
never will be known; but that he was horribly ell
fish there can be little doubt Still it shows what
brave men Cnangarnier ana BOurbaki are to shrug
their shoulders ana speak with this GOODNESS OF a
re-eating marshal, who, unless he is very good ma
ture6 with all his selGshness, may possibly be rush
ing all over France in few months with a drawn
sword ready to cut OF the head OF every one who
has abused lim Then, again, how disagreeable 1t
must be for the late Minister OF Marine to hear that
a long report OF his has been found describing
! General Prim as an intriguing adyenturer, who,
with the help OF his wies relations played all pos
sible tricks on the French Government respecting
the Mexican war. II this does not lead to duel
Prm is not the man he is generally taken for Alto
! gether the prospects OF peace are not reassurng,
! but when we consider how everybody has c0mpro-
missed everybody, and that it is six of one and ALI
| dozen OF the other, we must hope that the great
men OF the present time will be satisfied with the
blood that Bas been shed in the war, and not take
to shedding little more on their private account
! when IL is over.

THE SPANISH THRONE

TR1BULATIoN is in store for unhappy Spain.
The account published by us recently of the
proceedings in the Cortes on the 10th of No
vember, the day on which the Duke of Aosta
was elected to the throne, showed that the
attempt to force the young italian prince
upon the Spanish nation by Prim and his
followers was stubbornly resisted large
number of the deputies. All the regular and
irregular parliamentary tricks and devices
were resorted to in order to prevent vote
being taken, and both before and after the
vote the uproar and confusion in the Cham
Der were terrible. The minority made show
of acquiescing in the result, but it was evil
dent that by very large party the election
of Prince Amadeus is regarded with in
difference, while by still larger party it
will be antagonized to the very last
recent mail from Europe brings letter
from Madrid in which it is stated
that Senior Zorrilla, the President
of the Cortes, before starting for Florence
to lay the crown at the feet of the King-elect,
sent circular letter to the 191 deputieo who
cast their votes for Prince Amadeus, in
which he stated that the new dynasty will be
fiercely assaulted by those hostile to it, and
that they were already preparing for the
coming struggle Senior Zorrilla therefore ap-
peals to the deputies who voted for the Prince
for an effort on their part to get up little
enthusiasm. He demands that they shall
exercise their influence among their consti-
tuents in the provinces, get up demonstra-
tions by the people, and not return to Madrid
without bringing with them long lists of
names indorsing the action of the Cortes, and
welcoming the new King to the vacant
throne.
What with the Bourbonists, the
Carlists, the Montpensierists, and,
above all, the Republicans, to oppose him
at every turn and thwart him at every step,
King Amadeus / is likely to encounter a most
unwelcome and undesirable task. 1t will
require the possession of many statesmanlike
qualities and great deal of enthusiasm to
keep his heart in his work and his feet on
the throne. If he succeeds, he will deserve
well of Spain and the world; if he fails, he
will have good cause to regret that he did not
study more closely the history of Macmillan
of Mexico.

HAINEs BROS P1ANOs.-Of the ten hundred piano
manufacturers in the United States, none enjoy
better reputation for turning out first class stock
than do the Messrs. Haines Bros, OF New York.
They have not made such extraordinary efforts as
some have TO get their instruments before the
public, but their experience In business has taught
them that The pianos they manufacture, by heir
superior tone and excellence speak, as it were, for
themselves and those who purchase and use the
instruments understandingly, do not hesitate to
commend them to their friends and thus the pianos
gain an envable notoriety. These gentlemen have
been in the piano business for twenty years, both
being practical piano makers, end understand every
department OF their trade, and every instrument
sent from their factory be the price high or low, is
thoroughly examined and pronounced perfect before
1t is sold.
The instruments are made in every style Of finish,
and for tone cannot be surpassed in tSis country.
We have sold over 2OOO, and each with guarantee
OF five years Hundreds of buyers purchase from
us who start out reluctantly to look, feeling they
must spend $780, or 5000, s7O0, but find splendid
piano can be bought at about twothirds these sums
or less. Come ana see

THE SAN DOMINGO QUESTION.

Il LII CAV W AShOL AOAfs
TIE San Domingo annexation question came
up yesterday in the Senate, and it was de-
bated, we regret to say, by some of the Sena-
tors in anything but proper spirit. Messrs.
Sumner, Sehurz, and some others appear to
have taken issue with the President upon this
subject purely upon personal grounds, and
their opposition to any steps towards the an
nexation of one of the most valuable islands
in the West Indies seems to be based more
upon desire to snub th9 Executive than to
serve the country. II is an indisputable fact
that We greatly need just uch station in
the West Indies, if we are to be able at all
times to maintain our supremacy in the Gulf
Of Mexico, as the possession of San Domingo
will give us. If we can obtain this island
in proper manner and without paying for
it an exorbitant price, or involving ourselves
in serious DIFFICULTIES that will make the ac-

PIGEONS sold last week at So per dozen-not
on the wing, but dressed, and in good shape
for market.-Bangor Wig.
That is very high price to what they were
in this city many years ago, when wild pigeo ms
were SO extremely plenty that people were
glutted with them. They sold for so cents per
dozen. One day there were standing in the
market place, on Fore street, dozen wagons
from the country, all of which contained more
or less pigeons. One of the countrymen find
ing no sale for them, left his wagon hoping
some one would steal his fowls of the air. He
was gone some time, and on returning to his
wagon found that all the other wagons had
cleared out, but they had transferred all their
pigeons into his wagon! His wrath was ex-
treme and he dumped the whole cargo on the
street aud left the place. There were but few
pigeons brought here that year afterwards.
