The Financial Outlook.

The New York Tribune, which leans to
the cheerful side in discussing financial
questions, suggests that If the Franco-Ger-
man war last much longer, almost every
government in Europe will come into the
market as q borrower at high rates Of inter-
est. This would, at once bring the new
loans into active competition with American
government and railroad securities. On the
other hand, when the war ends, be it sooner
or later, France and Germany will immedi-
atey absorb an immense volume of capital.
Hundreds of millions will be required in
France alone for building roads and bridges,
and for repairing, in general, the losses Of
war. The very first effect, then, of the ces-
sation of hostilities will be q call for the
capital which during the war has been cent
to London on deposit, or has been allured
to the United States by the high rates of in
terest which rule on this side OF the Atlantic.
Another highly unfavorable element in the
calculation is the adverse course OF our for
eign trade. From July 1st to the latest dates
the imports of merchandise at New York
are Sl6.200,00O higher than for the same
period OF last year, while the exports of pro-
duce are $780, 900 lower. Nor do the cot
ton exports help to offset this increased
debt 1t is true that the quantity of cotton
exported exceeds that OF last year, having
reached since September l, 629, ,37l bales,
against 403, ,91S bales in 1863; but this in
crease in the shipments is fully set of by the
decrease in the price, 1t is another impor-
tant feature in the exchanges that for
some months past The amount OF Sc
curities sent to Europe has been quite
nominal compared with the export for
the same period Of lust year. Then, again,
the amount of gold actually on the mar
ket is very light. The associated banks
OF New York, on the 81 instant, held only
SIT, 100000, against $50, 6OO,OO at the same
time in 1869. The requirements for export
and for the payment of custom duties are
likely to reduce the supply materially during
the month.
Itis evident, therefore, that, as Europe calls
for the capital now lying at our disposal,
aud requires the payment OF the balances
due upon the foreign trade, the stringency
of the American market will increase.
Europe, moreover, holds S1,5OO, 900, 600 Of
United States promises-to-pay Of all kinds,
and if demand for capital, or apprehen-
sions of long continued trouble, cause any
considerable quantity OF them to be precipi-
tated upon our market, the effect must he
serious in the extreme. Putting this and
that together, it is most likely that a pro-
traction OF the war will embarrass the Amer
ican market, while the advent of peace will
certainly make gold high and money dear.

The Hew Use for Babies

Why alittle pug-nosed, red-faced, bandy-
legged, microscopic edition, of Father Adam
is, according to the most reliable figures,
permitted to be born into this mundane
sphere, at the rate of one per second; why
the chief accomplishment with which the
diminutive he she, or it, is Immediately en-
dowed, consists OF an insane desire to cele-
brate the most alarming stomach-aches with
vocal chords that drive men mad, catch the
measles, break forth in rash, and run the
entire gauntlet OF infantile diseases without
regard to squills or consequences; why, in
later months, you have upon your hands a
young Arab who subsists on dirt pies, adores
squirt guns, and gets up small gunpowder
plots in its fathers shaving cup-the incar-
nation of young steam engine in breeches-
these are riddles which have remained un-
solved from time immemorial, until this year
of our Lord, 1870 Mrs. Julia Ward Howe,
of Boston, who is evidently one of the most
transcendently prolific OF her sex-in sug-
gestions-lays down the broad platform
that babies are bern for the ballot, and de-
serve representation as much as any other
human corporosity, in whose behalf philan-
thropists are to-day at war. In other words,
that the mothers of the nation are entitled
to carry to the polls the contents OF every
cradle in the house, and vote according to
the numerical strength OF her family census.
The theme is calculated to touch any but
spinsters heart Mrs. Howe has struck the
keynote of domestic felicity, and laid the
foundation for a sublime step forward, in
which children in short clothes will lead the
procession Of the newly enfranchised mass to-
wards millennium of universal liberty. By
all means, then, bring out the babies. Mul-
tiply and increase. Let everybody paddle
his own canoe. Give the picaninnies a
chance. Let infant digts clutch the ballot
that will abolish their present degrading de-
pendence on tyrannical mothers and cruel
nurses; annihilate doctors and doctor stuff;
make holidays diurnal institution, and
soothing syrup supreme.

luton on Monday which will meet with the
cordial approval of the people Of every State
of the Union. That resolution requires the
repeal, at the earliest practicable moment
of all stamps and internal revenue taxes; an
excise duty on tobacco, spirits and mali
liquors being retained, so long as the legiti'
mate expenses OF the government require
the collection of any sum from internal
taxes.
The multitIdinous stamps of the internal
revenue system have been worry and veX-
alton to the American lieges these many
years Whether the article in request was o
machine-made shoe, box of matches or q
bottle of hair-oil, the inevitable stamp came
in, harassing buyer and seller to the verge
of mild-mannered lunacy. The engraving
and printing of the stamps exercised the
bad taste and ingenuity of cohort of work
men. and the enforcement OF the law gave
congenial work to an army OF spies and tell
tales; but the profit to the government was
never in proportion TO the annoyance and
irritation which thousand tormenting for
malities caused to the whole people. A leaf
may fairly he taken out Of the good hooks OF
one Of the monarchical countries which we
most abuse. We can afford to dispense
with all stamps except those upon deeds,
promissory notes, receipts for money exceed
ing fixed amount and their like. A whiskey
tax, beer tax and tobacco tax may be
retained for the present Beyond these we
cannot comfortably go, and from all the rest
we pray that Congress may deliver us. At
least, that President Grant may know the
beginning Of! !the meaning OF these two
potent words-Revenue Reform.
