France and European Disarmament.

Two Of our latest cable dispatches are sug-
gest1ve as to the immediate international
policy of Europe. One is to the effect that
Great Britain and Russia have agreed to pro-
pose a general disarmament to the Prussan
government Another is that so soon as the
g,ye5iscate is voted on by the French people the
Duke of Persigny will proceed to Berlin to
propose a European Congress. A European
Congress has long been desired by Napoleon,
and within the last two years he has more than
once expressed his anxiety for general dis
armament Prussia has been the main hin
drance to the carrying out of this scheme.
Prussia knows we'll that Napoleon is not salts
fed with the results Of 1866. Prussia will
never consent to disarm unless France accepts
things as they are. Bismarck is still the mas
ter of North Germany, and Bismarck will have
no parley with Napoleon about the treaty of
Prague and the other fruits Of Sadowa. II,
however, European Congress could agree
about disarmament the peoples OF Europe would
not be without good reason to bless it, 1t is
not at all improbable that Congress of the
great Powers may be the next European sem
sation.

With all these admitted the number Of States
will be forty-six. Then from Texas, with her
two hundred and thirty-seven thousand square
miles of territory, at least two new States must
be cut out which will give us forty-eight States.
Then leaving Alaska-about five hundred

CORNER GROCERIES AND THE EXCISE Il

CORNER GROCERIES AND THE EXCISE LAW
According to the Excise law, as amended, per-
sons are allowed to sell wine, spirituous liquors,
beer, &C., in quantities less than five gallons,
upon the payment of license fee that shall not
be less than thirty nor more than one hundred
dollars. This of course includes the corner
groceries, at which places some have inter-
preted the law to mean thas they shall be
exempt from the imposition of the license tax.
There are obscure points in the law which
will require time and the decision Of the courts
to determine the exact meaning of. In any
case, however, under the present democratic
regime, the law will no doubt be interpreted in
favor Of the liquor seller and the liquor con-
eumer.

1t Is announced in the papers that the North
German government have sent frigate, as
schooship for their midshipmen, to witness
our improvements! What will be their sur
prise when they find that their port of Kiel,
although but few years in their possession,
has larger and better navy yard than any in
this country, and that they outnumber us In
ships Of all kinds, although they were never
considered naval Power until within two
years This is the first North German ship
of-war that ever visited our hemisphere, and
deficient as they may find our navy now it IS
bound to outstrip all others when the people OF
the country will it.
The navy must advance, for it is as much
necessity that we should have guardians OF
the seas as that New York city should have
its guardians of the night. We remember the
time when only one sleepy old sentinel OF the
night could be found within dozen squares
on Broadway. Now they exist in the ratio OF
the wants of the community. SO it will be
with the navy if Messrs. Dawes, Washburn *
Co. will rise to the occasion, and II Mr..
Stevens will cease his attempts TO abolish all
that is good in the service.

The European Mails.

Our European news budget, supplies au
illustration of our cable dispatches to the 9Th

important character, some of the most salient
points of the Old World history of the day
being elucidated. AS proof of this fact it is
sufIi lent to call attention to Premier Olliviers.
official exposition of the constitutional reforms
which have been inangura.ed in France by
Bonaparte, and of the oral definition of the
position of the Roman Catholic Church deliv-
cred by Pope Plus the Ninth, as well as, his
description of its enemies. The Jesuits' in
Rome tell of citizen allegiance and
tho duty of subjects towards the crown
in Austria, as they understand these matters
in the Order-an action on their part which
becomes of the very highest Importance, as
one fraught with the most serious consequences,
both to the thrones and peoples, in the present
situation of European affairs. Russia appear )
inclined to shape her Cabinet policy so as o
turn her eyes from France to England al i'd
thus seek still more intimate relation w ith
the Court of st. james, to look, as it we re,
from the Malakoff into the Redan. Spain had
some new candidates for her vacant thr me.
Austria had Just experienced the incepti IN of
the late cabinet crisis, so that it may bt, said
with much truth that the then existing situa-
ton in Europe was being rapidly hurrY I'd to-
wards q solution-perhaps startling one
when our mail dispatches were forwarded
THE EXPECTED NEWS FROM RosfE.-We
NAV hear before our next issue of the adOp-
ton by the Ecumenical Council to-day of the
dogma of Papal infallibility. We say let the
Holy Father have his dogma, and all the
dogmas he may desire; we have not the
slightest apprehension that they will turn the
world upside down. In Europe, however,
there seems to be considerable alarm among
kings, potentates and politicians that this
dogma of infallibility is Trojan horse, full Of
armed men; and il the Pope can thus frighten
them they confess in their fears that he is still
power in the earth.
