Up to the time we write the Cabinet crisis
continues. The Russian note is firm and
decided. It does not appear that Gortchakof
has receded in any particular from the ground
he first took. He repeats his demands for
modification of the Treaty of Paris. and
reiterates his charges Of violation of the treaty
by other European Powers A congress is no
longer spoken of. The burden Of resistance
clearly falls upon Great Britain. Italy seems
Indifferent Austria is irritated, but 1t Is not
by any means certain that she Is willing to
fight. Not since the Crimean war has the
British government been in such fix. The
attitude assumed by Russia is no doubt Often
sive to Great Britain. But to prevent the
modification of the Treaty Of Paris it would be
simply absurd to 60 to war. The Queen, ss
wo have seen, is decided against war. Some
of the best men in the Cabinet and in the coun-
try have openly expressed themselves as
opposed to war on the question now at issue.
1t is divided Cabinet, and from all we know.
as yet, it seems divided country. Much will
depend on the course which Mr.. Gladstone
may take. II is hard for Prime Minister to
differ from his sovereign, but it is also dan
gerous thing for a constitutional monarch to
interfere directly with affairs Of State. Mr..
Gladstone is lover Of peace, but his career
has given abundant proof that he is not lacking
in moral courage. If the Cabinet cannot agree
it will be necessary to convene both houses of
Parliament and take the vote Of the nation.
If Mr.. Gladstone takes course opposed to the
houses it will be his privilege to call upon her
Majesty to dissolve Parliament and order a
general election. For the present all is dark
and doubtful. A war between Russia and
Great Britain is not to be desired in the
interests Of humanity. It is more than posi-
BILE, we think, that peace counsels will prevail.
A few hours more and we shall in all likeli-
hood be better able to pierce the gloom.

Tho War Situation in France.

While there are indications sufficient upon
which to base belief that the two opposing
armies in the valley of the Loire have been
engaged, it is impossible from the reports to
ascertain either the extent Of the struggle or
in whose favor the tide Of battle is running.
1t Is true the dispatches bear French COM
plexion and no announcement is made of q
French disaster, but on the contrary, Pala-
dimes, it is said, was leading his army sue
cessfully. Still, these reports must be taken
with good deal of caution. The situation
around Orleans is not very much different
from what 1t was two days ago. The move
ments of the armies concentrating and
preparing for the great battle which must
occur in this locality 60 steadily on, and
when the real tug comes it will be found that
the French will meet with not only determined
opponents, but with foemen who are accus-
Army Of the Loire appears to extend from
Glen, on the Loire, to Chateau de Loire, with
the centre resting on Vendome. The Ger
mans, In all probability, occupied Chateaudun
yesterday. This place is about twenty three
miles in a northeasterly direction from Ven
dome. At MontargIs the Germans are in
heavy force, and as this town is also distant
from Glen, where the right of the French
army rests, about twenty-three miles, 1t will
be seen that the German advance is steadily,
eompactly and solidly advancing down on the
French lines The uhlans have also made
their appearance in the neighborhood of LIE
Mans, and this announcement affords addi-
tional evidence Of the movement southwark Of
the German armies. This is the situation Of
affairs as we regard it to-day.

Raid on Chr ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Of
ssKnockiug Down.

ssKnocking Down.
A thorough Investigation instituted by Mr..
Robert Murray, formerly United States Mar
shall and now President Of the Seventh
Avenue Railroad Company, resulted on Satur-
day in the arrest and Imprisonment of a
number Of car conductors charged with embez-
Element Of portions of the car fares collected
by them. 1t is said that the detectives who for
several days had been secretly watching them
and other conductors, who for some reason
have not yet been arrested, have definitely
ascertained that nearly seven hundred dollars
was each day Withheld from the Golfers of the
company and pocketed by its employees. 1t is
high time that this 'sknocking down." as 1t is
technically called, should be summarily sup
pressed. At the same time it must be remem-
bered that the employees on the city railroads
are proverbially ill-paid. Their compensation
is so inadequate as to excite suspicion that
in fixing it the railroad companies must calcu-
late upon the opportunities and temptations of
the conductors to make up the deficiency by
ssknockiug down." This is a wretchedly mean
and foolish expedient on the part Of the rail-
road companies. 1t would be far wiser and
better to pay the men literally for the discharge
of their trying and laborious duties. The
honest way Of doing anything is always the
best Way,

per annum. That he docs not oyerstate the
case Is apparent from what has actually hap
pened In the lower portion Of the Amazon
valley. These are the facts :-sTn 1853 the
first steamers Of the Navigation and CONNER
cial Company Of the Amazons commenced run
ming. The imports and exports of the Amazon

1t is necessary to mako some deduction for
the reduced value Of the milrei on account
of tho Paraguayan war; The approximative
trade for that financial year was FL, $50, O0O
This represented the commerce OF 100000
people at the most, and gavc Go los. per
head. They occupy a territory not for
moment to be compared in climate, agricul-
tural and mineral wealth to Bolivia and Matto-
Crosse, and therefore should net be expected
to compare in trade with these countries when
they are afforded an outlet by the projected
railway"
II further proof wore needed to strengthen
tho argument in favor of the scheme before
us 1t might be found in the fact that besides
this scheme there are two others which have
for their object the utilizing Of the wealth or
Bolivia. The Argentine republic has pushed
a railroad forward to Cordoba, about two
hundred and fifty miles distant from the port
of Rosario, on the Parana river, and the pre-
sumption Is that 1t will yet be extended to the
northeast and around the spurs of the Andes
to the Bolivian province Of Tarja. A similar
effort Is being made by Peru. A railway Is
actually under construction from the Pacific
to Lake Titicaca. This road, which is to
scale pass Of the Andes fourteen thousand
six hundred feet above the level Of the sea,
will cost when completed not less than ten
million pounds sterling. OF these under
takings Colonel Church says:-'They are bold
and full Of merit. The country is SO rich that
they will all reap large returns; but 1t is by
way Of the Amazon river that Bolivia looks
for her greatest development, and it will be
in connection with the Amazon valley of Brazil
that she will receive IL"

The War Crisis In Europe--A Ponce Consrsss
in London spoken Of.
Europe remains deeply excited over the
Eastern question In the shape In which 1t has
been revived by the Issue Of the Russian cir
cular and the note to England on the subject
pfths revision o. tae treaty 81 Paris. Our cable
kilograms, dated in the different capitals yes
terday report the diplomacy as tending to war,
besides stating again, and still more distinctly,
the many governmental exigencies which inHu-
ence towards the maintenance Of peace.
England has her peace and war parties In the
Cabinet. The existence OF this difference OF
opinion dlstracts the Ministerial council, rem
ders the national policy hesitatlng and in
reality prolongs the crisis. The idea Of q
war with Russia is very distasteful in
high quarters in Great Britain. Prince
Gortchakoff's note lies on the council
table of the Queen threateningIy. The Eng
lish resource Of shifting, evasive action is
recommended to her Majesty. She is advised
in reply to proclaim that England ''cannot act
decisivcly in the Russian note, and that an
overt act must precede the war situation"
After this she may wait for something to turn
up"-mediation, conference, congress, or,
it may be, spontaneous action Of the great
Powers on the Russian demands. General
Ignatieff has had an audience with the
Sultan. The Turkish ruler looks towards his
British ally, and thus canno. reply deci-
sively until he hears from London.
Prussia and Austria appear to incline
towards peaceful mediation, although
we are now told Prince Gertchakoff had
informed Bismarck Of his intentions in the
matter soon after the commencement Of the
Prussian war against France, and that Bis
marck really gained some excellent military
advantages in the concentration of troops
against Napoleon, while he held the eyes
of the Muscovits turned towards the Black Sea
and Constantinople by temporizing. The
division which exists in England is Of serious
consequence to the nation. The British
nation is ''drifting" towards war, but the
course of the current is irregular, II not en-
tirely underlined. The very latest news states
that Bismarck has advised peaceful solu-
ton Of the question. We are assured,
indeed, that the difficulty will be arranged
arranged by European congress to be held
in London-an event which is very probable
and which we have already foreshadowed to
some extent in the pages of the HERALD.

Ts.o Two Great Fairs.

The success of the two great fairs-the Fair
for the Fouaalings and the Fair for the French
Sufferers by the Warts all the more wonder
full from the fact that both have been held at
the same time and while an unusually attrac-
tive variety Of public amusements has been
exhibited. The Founding Fair closed Satur-
day night, after having realized profit of
sixty thousand dollars. 1t cannot take long to
make up by private subscription or in some
other effective way the sum of one hundred
thousand dollars, which will at once insure
the conditionally promised State donation of
one hundred thousand dollars more. Several
parishes were not only represented by richly
laden tables at the Founding Fair, but they
also held simultaneously elsewhere parochial
fairs for local and miscellaneous charities.
The undated enthusiasm which prevails
among all classes in behalf of the French
Fair promises financial success that shall
rival that of the recent German Fair. The
most cynical must be warmed into surprise, if
not sympathy, by such undeniable proofs as
are afforded by these fairs that, If New York is
pleasure and luxury, it is equally generous in
its gifts. New York has large, true heart of
charity. Moreover, the fairs must be counted
among the best and most satisfactory enter
tainments Of the season. Young people meet
at them under the most favorable circum-
stances for revealing to each other their finest
qualities. Ladies find here an agreeable in
terrupuon to the usual monotony Of their
lives, and learn that doing good is at once a
pleasant pastime and laudable employment.
Young men, with plenty Of money In their
pocketbooks, had infinitely better spend 1t and
delightful evening at fair than at any of
the thousand-and-one dcmoralizing resorts
which are open for the unwary in great
metropolis.

Both THE GERMAN AND THE FRENCH ARMIES
near the Loire river seem to be afraid Of each
other, and, as consequence, are indulging in
movements and counter movements, with a
view to taking each other at disadvantage.
The spectacle Of two armies engaged In these
field maneuvres carries one back 10 the PENN
sular campaign between the Duke Of Yelling
ton-then Sir Arthur Wellesley-and the
French generals. However, all military
strategy nust have an end; 80 battle mus
BIO fought within few days or one of the
armies must fall back.
