Our special Letter. FROM Europe.


Our special European correspondence, pub
lshed in another column to-day, supplies Old
World matter Of much interest furnished by
our writers in London and Paris The letters
are dated to the 7th of May.
Mr.. DsraeIi's book, ''Lothar' is again
noticed, and the stealthy political and party
effort which is just now being made to revive
the spirit Of religious feud in England still
further unveiled. The anmus of the author
and of his Parliamentary adherents and advis-
ers in this direction were almost certain to fail,
however, particularly after the open and
pointed declaration OF the Prince of Wales to
the effect that in the matter of religious tole-
ration and freedom of worship the English
people should initiate the American practice.
This Christian avowal was accepted as highly
creditable both to the tone of mind and per-
sonal bearing of his Royal Highness. From
Paris we have continuation Of our special
history of the regicide conspiracy plot against
the life of Napoleon, with details of its excit-
ing causes, as set forth by its more active pro-
movants, its sweep of idea and possible means
of effecting revolutionary purpose.

THR GOLDEN AGE, if not of literature, OF
the literary profession, is the golden age we
live ill., Time was when the highest literary
men were little better than beggars. Now we
might name host Of them on both sides OF
the Atlantic who, in their estates, incomes and
expenditures, are among the nabobs OF the
land. Dickens, for instance. makes pleasure
excursion to and through part Of the United
States, and from series of evening readings
of his own fancy sketches he returns to Eng
land richer than he was by two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars. And now Disraeli, as
diversion from the cares Of State, writes a
novel, and for the English copyright pockets
ten thousand pounds, or fifty thousand dollars.
s'What's in name?" asks the simple-hearted
Juliet. Why, Sgnorina, if it is popular lite
ary name there is California gold mine in 1t
in this golden age Of light reading.

Too MUoH INsANITY.-The city has been
aroused by fresh deed Of blood. Broad
well bids fair to become second McFar-
land. IF the unfortunate woman whom he
calls his wife dies Of the wound she
has received from her husbands hand there
can be no doubt that an attempt will be made
to save his life on the ground that he was in
sane when he committed the fatal act. There
are many who will regard this outrage as the
first fruit of the Mcfarland acquittal. We
cannot wholly agree with them; but neither
can we say they are wholly wrong. We do
not as yet know the merits Of the case. But
whatever shape this case may ultimately
assume we must protest against this insanity
cry. We must also protest against the idea
that man is master of his wife, as the
Southern planter was wont to be Of his slave
that he can starve her and strike her and in a
thousand ways make her life miserable, and
that when she fees from him in despair he can
then follow and shoot her with impunity. We
have had already too much insanity. We
must now have some justice.

SERRANo AND TIE SPANISH THRONE.

that Espartero was in favor. To-day we learn
that having given up all hope OF a prince,
Spain is divided between Espartero and Ser
rano. Espartero, as he himself has SAID, Il
too old. Serrano has done so well as regen
that we cannot refuse him our vote. Ii klni
must be had let it be Serrano.

TnE CATHOLIC POWERS AND INFALLIBILITY. -
There seems TO be no doubt that if the Pope
and those who act with him push in the
Ecumenicai Council the dogma of infallibility,
the dogma will be carried, and carried easily.
At the same time It becomes more and more
apparent that the Catholic Powers are bitterly
opposed. The Council of the Vatican may
represent the Church, but most assuredly it
does not represent the State. In recent
sitting of tho Council the Archbishop
of Paris, who is in the confidence
of the Emperor, spoke strongly against
the dogma IL appears, too, that
Austria wakes more and more hot against
IT, Chancellor Beust and the Hungarian
Premier Andrassy, who, together, really
rule the Austro-IIungarian empire, have
agreed to forbid the promulgation of any
decree of the Ecumenical Council de-
claring the infallibilty Of the Pope. If the
proclamation Of the dogma of Papal infall-
bi!ity alienates, as it threatens to do, the
Catholic governments of Europe from the
Church, the Church will not have any
good reason to bless the Council, although
the world may.

The ln,ernn,,onaI channel Race.

The international Channel tSace'
The splendid victory Of the Sappho is not
palatable TO all on the other side. The Lon
don Times comedies that there is probably no
schooner in England that 'can sail with the
American yacht Sappho;" and this, whether
or no 1t be correct, is at least a remarkable
admission; but aside from this, all
the expressions of tue English journals
seem distinguished for mistaken views
of the snbject and questionable spirit. The
Sappho, further says the Times, was 'handled
by an English captain and crew under his
personal direction" This gratditous misstate-
ment Is corrected in our special despatch,
given elsewhere; but the putting forth ofsuch
a statement, az if iu mitigation Of the disgrace
OF defeat is pitifully characteristic of spirit
that has not the manliness TO face its fortune
fairly. What poor little grain of comfort
will sometimes satisfy our bur!y cousin! Ex-
actly how much better would he feel IL this
our hardy lads some Of the glory Of this VIC
tory by showing that Englishmen are better
sailors than shipbuders-t an American
boat is SO good that even Englishmen can win
in one though they cannot win in those they
build themselves 1t viii be observed that the
last Of the three races was much the tairest Tor
the Sappho in its conditions, inaslnuch as 1t
was race that within distance OF sixty
miles gave the wind on several different
points; and 80 clearly acknowledged Is the
= 4 fl,.tr anIa
yachting world of England, aud even urcon-
scIousy by the press which disparages
her success, that the raco is given
up to her by common consent when
she has won only that third of it in
which the wind was dead against her. This
is as if all the yachtmen Of England should
say the Cambria may try the Sappho pretty
close on one point of the wind, but with the
wind anywhere else than at that one point
the Cambria il nowhere. Some OF the state
ments Of news we get are scarcely intelllg.ble,
from their obscurity. It is reported, for
instance, that the steamer posted for turning
point had TO take the Cambria in tow, from
which we should infer that she did not finish
the race. Yet one of the dispatches implies
that she did finish the race and had claim
for victory by time allowance. This we take
TO be altogether blunder. As the terms of
the race were settled in the published cores
pondence, there was to be no allowance for
size, and we cannot believe that this agree
ment had been in any way modified. Alto
gether, this is splendid triumph for the
Sappho--cor an American boat for the
american model and for American yacht
men---a triumph complete in all its parts, and
we are sorry that John Bull does not hand
soInely acknowledge it, rather than chatter on
small points and disparage the gallantry
against which he could not successfully
contend.

THE GEORGIA INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE
have made a report which discloscs most in
famous attempts on the part of Governor Bull
lock and others interested in the passage Of
the stringent Georgia bill to influence legisla-
ton. The intention to bribe Senators Carpen-
ter and Upton was fairly developed, but the
parties called upon by Bullocks adherents to
do the dirty work refused to approach those
Senators for any such purpose. The result Of
the investigation puts the Senate in high po-
stion as contrasted with the result of the cades-
ship selling investigation in the House, and it
remains to be seen if General Butler, whose
committee is trying to tack the Bullock clause
to the bill, will proceed further in that busi-
ness

River expedition, to pass through the canal. He
saws his instructions are positive on this point
Thus we see that in heading off the Fenians
on the one side and the Canadian troops on
the other, General Grant is bound to have
peace in Winnipeg. 1t strikes us, however,
that Mr.. Secretary Fish Is getting slightly
muddled in this business In the refusal to let
this British Canadian troop ship pass through
our cana, does he not recognize Riel and his
Red River insurgents as belgerents4 And
does not such recognition spoil to some
