Fort AKRON has been occupied by the Ger
mans This important success establishes the
besieging force within the outer works of the
French at one of the weakest points along
theirline of defense. Fort De Rosny, Immediately
in front Of the captured work, and hardly more
than a mile distant, stands on an elevation no
highertban that of the position just taken. Forts
Nogent and Noisy on it's right and left are
located on lesser elevations and not more diff
cult ground, and with Fort De Rosny captured
are indefensible. The Germans were able to
throw shells from the guns which reduced
Fort AKRON Ito the suburbs of Paris at Bell
Vile From AKRON the same guns will be able
to reach points in the city within the walls.

The letter of Mr. Medill which we publish
this morning, on the feasibility of carrying
the Darien Ship Canal over the Cordilleras,
invites and will doubtless receive wide dis
cussion. The scheme Is ono the Importance
of which can scarcely be exaggerated. A
feeling of partial discouragement has taken
possession Of the public mind on account of
the unfavorablo reports sent in from sue
cessive exploring expeditions. There arc so
many obstacles in the way OF trenching or
tunneing the Isthmus, that it may we'll be
doubted whether private or public enterprise
will not be deferred from the attempt 20
overcome them. The plan which Dir. Medill
suggests, Of surmounting the divide by o
series OF locks, to be filed by steam pumps,
will certainly fall under the suspicion Of con-
servative engineers through its very boldness
aud simplicity. But there seems no more in
berent difficulty in filling locks by steam
power from lower to higher levels, and thus
floating vessels over elevations than there Is
in pushing trains Of cars over similar nights
by the application of the same power. II has
been recently demonstrated that steam can

France refuses to engage in the Conference
on the Eastern Question, and it has conse-
quently been postponed until one of the chief
signatOry Powers which formed the treaty can
freely engage in it. France doubtless hoped
by this refusal to compel the recognition OF
the Republic, but England and Austria are not
likely to commit themselves hastily while
Prussia remains so strong and France so weak.
The interesting question which nov comes mp
is, will Russia postpone her designs until
France is free from her enemy and i'll q
condition to take part in the Conference
and the struggle with which it may possibly
end7 Russia has not chosen the moment of
the French embarrassment 70 threaten war in
order to await the recovery of that Power
before precipitating it. We should do Prince
GortschakoH injustice to credit him with so
little sagacity. Russian preparations have con-
tinued pending the negotiations for confer
ence land demonstrations will undoubtedly
follow the refusal of France to enter the Con-
gress. Indeed. the action of Roumania in
declaring her independence and forming new
government appears to be but part of the
programme Of further action

This Tariff must render the collection OF
the Revenue from Imports less difficult and
costly than it has been. 1t proceeds, in the
main, on the true principle of reducing the
number of articles taxed rather than the per-
centagc of duties charged thereon-a rule
which we wish had been consistently adhered
to throughout. On the whele, this Tariff Is
an improvement on its predecessor, whether
regarded from the standpoint of Protection
or that of Free Trade. But the correspondent
who asks why it reduces the duty on Pig Iron
should address his inquiries to some one
who favored that reduction, not to Us who
opposed it.

There were two newspapers OF this city
which yesterday announced the murderOus as
sault upon Gen. Prm in Madrid in tones of
positive approval of the dastardly crime. 1t
seems difficult to believe in the possibility of such
stupidity and such depravity. The crime COM
mitted is morally the worst conceivable, and
the blunder is too dense for comment Yet
two American papers, which never sympathize
with any genuine movement Of liberal thought
in the world, have the folly and the eifrontery
to applaud this wicked and indecent felony.
We trust it is not necessary to add that both
these sheets are controlled by that gang of
shameless law.breakers, the Tammany Ring.

On Thursday night last ten or twelve

and Immediately opened on them with
Spencer rifles. The thieves returned

were fired at them, and it is believed
that one Of them Is MORALLY wounded,

CHILDREN BEATEN BY A FEMALE
FuRY.-The Oakland Transcript of
May 18th relates this. horrible incident:
Mary -, servant in the family
of Goldstein, of the firm of Block Il
Co., was arrested last evening for in
flicting a brutal beating upon two chill
dren Of the family in which she was
employed. 1t appears that Goldstein
and his wife were absent at San Fran
cisco yesterday, and left the children,
who are three and five years Of age
respectively, in charge Of the servant.
During the day the woman got intoxi-
Gated, and fell to beating the helpless
little ones in her are The children's
cries brought some of the neighbors to
the house, where 4 horrible sight met
their gaze. One of the girls had es-
capped IRON the house, and was running
from the place In an almost nude con,
dition, and covered with blood from
the wounds she had received from the
heartless monster who had been given
charge of her. The other child was
found lying upon the floor in the house
in an almost lifeless condition. The
police were sent for, and physicians
called to attend. the wounded children.
The eldest remained almost uncon-
scious for many hours, and at u late
hour last evening we were informed
that both children were in q very low
condition. The weapons used by the
woman in her Internal work were 4
heavy hickory cane and another stick,
about one and one-half inches thick at
the heaviest end, and five or six feet in
length. This latter weapon was broken
in three pieces over the bodies OF the
unfortunate victims. The woman was
locked up in a cell last night, and will
be taken before Judge Jayne for eXam-
nation to-day.
