of the stockholders, the President declared
that France would stand by it's grant of twenty
years monopoly, aud that Erlanger verified
the assertion.
Now, rs it is alleged that the company
claims that 1t can lobby through Congress
itself confirmation of this monopoly, it is
well for our people to keep sharp lookout
on the proceedings of this body. Everybody
will remember how public indignation was
stirred when, Just before the new wire touched
the ssnd at Duxbury il was made known that
the permission applied for by certain of our
citizens to land an American cable on the
French shore had been peremptoriy refused.
The prospect of O new submarine cable was
grateful; the thought of connecting the Old
World with the New by wire one of whose
ends should touch our own soil, was welcome
thought, md stirred an emotion which even
the Valentia and Hearts Content cable did
not excite. But all this pleasure was instantly
turned to indignation, and the outcry OF the
people was unanimous, when the nature of the
French concession was thus practically aud
pungently made known.
We repeat that it only remains for the
French cORcessi0nHdiTes to disarm the storm
in season, and for the French Government TO
repair its errors. The arrangement effected
hitherto for reciprocity in privilege is
opposed to the spirit of modern commerce by
barring out competition. There was not for
it even the excuse Of new experiment, de-
serving patent or exclusive rights, since the
cable from Ireland TO Newfoundland had
already been successfully laid, and thereafter
success for similar enterprises was assured.
Until this proper modification is made, new
enterprises like the Belgo-American cable
will start with the popular sentiment in their
favor, and the fate of the French cable will
remain uncertain.

THE FRENCH CABLE MONOPOLY.
From fbe ~ Y 7y9upa


The famous ''cable" paragraph in Presi-
dent Grants Message has at least found re-
sponsive echo in the sympathies of our coun-
trymen and countrywomen in Paris, however
it may affect the Parisians in general, and
outrage the sensbilities of the French au-
thorities in particular.
1t is clear that the illiberal policy of the
French Government, so far as the Franco
American cable is concerned, is reacting not
against the Government only, but against the
company itself, whose stock is twenty -tvo per
cent. below par, solely in consequence of
trouble with the United States authorities,
whereby its tenure upon American shores is
made so uncertain. 1t is not impossible that
this process of bearing is resorted to. less
in consequence of political vagaries in the
brain of that ''sound Confederate" Mr.. En-
langer, than as a shrewd business device for
getting hold of the stock at depressed rates,
and before it shall bounce up again on the
adjustment of difficulties by reasonable con-
cessions. That these concessions must come,
we hold to be beyond question. Our Gov
ernment never will submit to the humilia-
ton Of seeing SO unnatural and Just
monopoly permanently established
as the present arrangements confer, especially
while it is publicly believed and claimed that
Erlanger and Reuter-, as our Paris correspon-
dent says, 'agreed, when the difficulty
arose about landing the cable on our shores,
to obtain from the French Government the
annulment of the twenty years exclusive
privilege granted to that company" But how,
on the contrary, are these accredited agents
of the company, and how are tho company
themselves, going on? Our correspondent
tells us that the French stockholders are ar
ranging either for q fusion with the English
Cable Company, or the maintenance of the
present rate of messages. He tells us tha
on its thirteenth week of operation, the
French cable yielded over eleven Thousand
dollars in gold, which. if the published ex
penses be correct, would make about clever
per cent. even then, on the actual first cost

There are at least three vital questions

Tho Foreign Policy Of the Government

The imbecility Of the Administration
of General Grant in relation to foreign
affairs-its disgraceful subscrvience to
European powers-is acknowledged by
the leading Republican members of Con-
gress. Mr.. VOORHEES,, Democrat from
Indiana, in alluding to the case of Con-
sui Phillips, of Santiago de Cuba, who
was subjected to a great outrage by the
Spanish authorities, said that he :" implor.
ed the members of the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, Who had access to the
fossil or dead man who presided over the
State Department, to tell him the blood
of American citizens was crying from the
ground for action against his imbecility,
sloth and want Of regard for the honor,
glory and safety of this once great and
honored Republic"
To this Mr.. Banks, of Massachusetts,
Chairman of that Committee, formerly
Republican Speaker of the House, said
that he indorsed the correctness of Mr.
Phillips statements, and that they were
only waiting an opportunity to report on
the subject"
General Logan, (Republcan), of Hi
nois, stated that he had /" felt for long
time that the American Government was
not doing its duty, and that its hesitancy
was almost criminal" He further re-
marked that the country demanded ac-
ton on Cuban affairs, and that outrages
had been perpetrated in Cuba until the
blood of American citizens cried out
from the ground."~
Mr.. Sargent, Republican member, in
order to excuse the Administration, at
tributed it to the refusal of Congress to
put the navy on an efficient footing to
vindicate the honor of the flag.
This requires little comment. The Ad-
ministration is denounced, is we have
said, for its inefficiency and its want of
protection to American citizens. 1t is
so denounced by its own leading friends.
The fact is patent to all, without distinc-
ton of party, that, abroad as we'll as at
home, weakness, if not wickedness. char
