Tho Financial Probabilities or the War
1t is said in London that news of French
victory at present would cause panic in the
stock market there. The stock and money
market is the most sensitive barometer Of
events and the drift Of public sentiment on
questions of disturbing character. We
should see, probably, similar effect, though
not to the extent of a panic, produced in
Wall street as in London should there be q
French victory. Apart from the sympathy
that exists between the two great financial
centres of New York and London, the
same cause would operate here as there. A
French victory-that is, really great success
in the war-would have very disturbing
effect throughout Europe, which would bear
upon the market value Of gold and stocks in this
country. Each success of Prussia has had the
contrary effect. Stocks have gone up abroad
and gold has gone down in New York. II is
natural to infer, then that stocks would 90
down in London and gold up here with
French victory. Why? Because, as
was said, of the apprehension of a pro-
longed war and general disturbance. This
might or might not be the result of French
victory; still it is evident this is the impress
sion made upon that sensitive barometer the
money and stock markets of the world. Ger
many is fighting to secure guarantees of peace,
and when they are obtained she will, we have
no doubt, cheerfully lay down her arms.
Should France gain a victory at present she
would probably endeavor to avenge the
invasion Of her soil and disasters of the war
by invading Germany. This would not only
prolong the war, but might involve Europe
generally in the terrible conflict. This, we
suppose, is the meaning Of the telegram from
London and the reason OF the fluctuations in
stocks and gold

The dispatches Published this morning over
throw ell the nne hopes for the French based
on the dispatches published yesterday.
bAxAnc, II appears. IL still bottled up at
MefE. ~ Butler was at bermuda Hundred,
unable 10 get away and incapacitated from
doing any good with his army. MacMahon
has not formed junction with Basainc nor
dc~s u seem probable that 80 good soldier
would attempt 10 do 80. He has probably sent
large portion Of bis army TO attack tho forces
holding BaxAine In check, but 10 join Bazaine
himself in Metz would be no more sensible
Jchnstos 10 have joined Pemberton inside of
besieged vicksburg. The forces Of Frederick
Charles and General Steiumets are westward
cfMstx. and the Grown Prince is at st. Dlzier,
all resting. reinvigcrsting themselves and
awaiting reinforcsments. This seems to be
the best thing they can do. BazAine will Ger
tainiy keep. for hacMshon hardly seems able
10 cope very successfully with his single force
against the Grown Prince, much less the com
bined forces Of Sscinnetz and Prince Frede-
rick Charles. although he still faces them
bravely, inierposng between them and Paris.
h 10 stated from French sources that he

aud this may have occasioned the report that
he had made q junction with him. but daily
communication may be had between two
armies without ono being able to help the
other. and 10 very different matter
from junction. But the statement that he
holds daily communication with Bazaine
seems very doubtful la view Of the fact that
the Prussian armies lie between them, and
that the same despatch says communication be-
tween Thionville, Monmcdy and Metz Is cut of.
The report that the Prussian armies had
been reinforced las not been denied or con-
hrrucd, bat we must conclude, II we are TO
believe all the dispatches, that IL il true. II is
probable, therefore, that the three Prussian
columns, rested and reinvigorated, will soon
resume their march towards tho gay capital OF
France, with only the brave MacMahon and
his army and the fortincstious about the city
10 resist them.

Coal MonspoIists as Their Old Game.
The following delectable piece Of informa-
ton comes to us through the Pottsvllle (Pa. J
Min-rs' Journal -
From private letter received here from New
York we learo that the prices OF the Pennsylvania
Coal Company for September have been advanced
thir'T ocuts per ton over the prices for August
When 1t is understood that this intelligence
comes from an organ of the Pennsylvania coal
monopolists proper weight will be placed upon
1t. But taken 10 connection with the following
paragraph, which appears in the Same column
Of the same paper, 1t is plain that the whole
scheme Is simply an excuse to raise the price
Of coal:-
Scranton coal Will take place In New York on
wednesday Of next week. August 81.
1t Is in this way the bulls in the coal market
prepare the way for rise in the price Of the
article, and compel consumers to submit to
the advance. Now, it is well known that
there is no real necessity or excuse for this
advance, except to crafty the avarice of the
coal operators and monopolists. The fact that
there was already large stock on hand at
places of shipment prior to the resumption Of
work by the striking miners is sufficient to
disprove that the enhanced price is warranted
by lack Of supply. On the contrary. the
various wholesale coal marts have been
overstocked all summer; so much 30
that II has been difficult to obtain transporta-
tion to Eastern markets, aud now that all the
mines are again doing full work, with several
months to spare before navigation closes, it is
apparent that the whole plot for bulling up
prices is but narrow and sordid one. The
advancement in the price of coal at the mines
is always taken advantage Of by the local
retailers to pinch the poor consumers. For
instances If the price is advanced by the COM
panies thirty cents per ton the retailer
improves on this at the rate OF fifty or hun
dred per cent, and thus the poor become even
tually the greatest sufferers.

appearance 10 that Prussia may win, Prim
