A Coal SwINDLE--People have long ago
abandoned the expectation of receiving the
legal two thousand four hundred pounds Of
coal to the ton, and are obliged to be content
with the round two thousand when they can
get it, which is very seldom, except from very
honest dealers. But to be shaved down to
sixteen hundred pounds is, to use vnlgarism,
little too steep. A coal dealer was detected
the other day playing this trick through tho
vigilance of the purchaser, who weighed the
article on the city weighers scales and dis
covered that he had bsen cheated out of four
hundred pounds of coal. This happened in
Jersey City, where justice is supposed to keep
one eye open ana to use her sword pretty
vigorously. In consequence the coal dealer
was arrested and held in five thousand dollars
bail to appear for trial. There are, no doubt,

Napoleon as wilhelmshoho.

BY special telegram, dated at Wilhelmshohe
ana forwarded through the Atlantic cable yes
terday, we are enabled to present to our
readers most interesting account Of the con-
dition o. his Majesty the Emperor Napoleoa
In his castle prison. The ex-monarch appears
10 ENJOY most excellent health. He looks
twenty years younger than he really is, and is
sprightly, active and again in business
routine He is indeed engaged In more
than onhclal routine for our correspon-
dent states that he himself enioved am
opportunity Of observing the manner Of Nano.
Icons parting with Prussian secret courier
who had just delivered to him MESSAGE !,
the very highest import from King william
and Bismarck. This despatch, If we are COR
rectly informed, looked 10 nothing less than
the restoration of Bonaparte to the TuiIeries.
Should his intelligence prove correct in its en-
tirety, and we have no reason to doubt the
sources Of information of our correspondent,
we may hear of the occurrence Of
some very startling events in tho
Old World at an early moment
Many distinguished visitors were received
at Wilhelmsh1he. The Orleanist Princes were
active through their agents on the Continent,
but it is alleged that they have not the slightest
chance Of a return to power in France. The
Emperor referred to the Russo Eastern COM
plication, which, he says, viii yet be the
s'Nemesis of England" His Majesty re-
manned still anxious relative to the opinion Of
the American people in his case and tho
French situation generally.
Care came around him, notwithstanding his
aspirations anxious and corroding. Eu-
genie had visited her husband; but even with
her, in her expressions Of the most tender
affection, was brought his greatest alarm
alarm for the health Of his son. The Prince
Imperial is in very delicate state of health.
He was told, indeed, that his mother regards
it as melancholy" This would be real
blow to the Emperor. Defeat, dethronement,
exile and Imprisonment, all could be borne
with the hope of the perpetuation Of the dy-
nasty. Should his son be taken away then
would his earthly prospects be gloomy almost
beyond the hope of consolation on this side Of
the grave.

IMPORTANT IF TRuE.-King Victor En-
manuel is reported to have said that
The late vote in the Spanish Cortes
was not decisive enough to justify his sons ac-
ceptance of the throne. Ii this be true Spain
may yet have to go on another begging tour
among the princes of Europe. The presump-
tion is that this is an idle and unfounded
rumor, and that the throne question in Spain,
for the present at least, is settled. At the same

ThanksSiving-The Great National Festival
Ferty millions Of people, all free and In
most respects equal, yesterday combined In
what is termed thanksgiving, which act Is
popularity believed to be the rendering Of
manifestations Of gratitude to the Creator for
the blessings vouchsafed during the year
which has just terminated with the close OF
the harvesting season. Whether the observ-
ance, viewed as o collective demonstration,
may be accepted as pure and religious
homage Of thanks to the Deity, is, after all,
a question about which there is much
room for debate. That it was intended to be
such, by the stanch and fervently devout
sword and cross-bearing Puritans who or
dained the custom there Is every reason to
believe; and that the festival is eminentIy
beautiful, poetic and appropriate as tribute of
man to his Maker and Preserver will be gene
rally admitted. The celebration OF the day
was, indeed, spontaneous, and, as an American
rite, was universal-as universal in the manner
Of its observance as in the extent. In the
churches, in the theatres, on the racing grounds,
in the bathrooms, in the streets, the highways,
the byways and at the firesides, and even in
the baser resorts Of humanity, the spirit Of the
day was manifest, and II all passed for and
was called Thanksgiving. AT least it may
be called rejoicing, and certainly that is
tribute, but not the tribute which was in
tended. The myriads rejoced for the pros
perity of the year; the few gave deep and
earnest thanks to the Source whence
emanated all the manifold blessings which
united made up the great national sum of
prosperity. 1t was gratitude for continued
freedom, for internal peace and good will
toward all peoples without, for abundant har-
vests, for increased traffic and accumulated
wealth, and as such only was it generally
rejoiced in.
The ample reports which we publish else
where show with the fidelity Of photograph
the multifarious ways in which these feelings
welled forth from tho popular heart,
and it is only from the reports
of the services in the churches and other sa-
cred and charitable societies that the true
intent of the feast is apparent. The pastors
exhcrted their congregations to gratitude, to
humiliation, to thanksgiving in spirit, and
pointed with fervent exultation to the privi-
leges granted and enjoyed. All the ''signs of
the times" were translated as auguries Of
great, glorious, and prosperous future for the
nation as sovereignty, and fer Americans as
people, and thereby was implied brilliant
hope for the nation in its aspect of multitude
of individuals. The theme was America,
and well 1t might be on an occasion so truly
and originally American as the great observ-
ance in which the whole people rejoiced yes
terday.

The War siraatlon in Francc-surreudcr
or ThiOuvllle.

| The War situatlon in Francc-surrender
or ThionviIle.
But one item of late news reaches us this
morning frsm the seat of war in France. II is
that the Grand Duke Of Mecklenburg is ad-
vancing-we infer upon the Army OF the Loire,
although the despatch does not say 50. Be-
yond this intelligence and statement that
the fortress of Thionville surrendered on
yesterday morning, an event which was
inevitable, all the kilograms are devoted
to reports of past operations and nego-
tiations. Letters from Paris confirm the re-
ported falling of the food supply. Neverthe-
less the Parisians seem to take their gloomy
prospects with good grace, their journals going
so far as to crack jokes over the situation. We
are told that at but two points is sortie at
all possible, and that these are heavily forti-
fed and defended by large bodies Of German
troops. This is manifestly absurd; sortie is
possible from nearly every point surrounding
Paris At the same time it is undeniable that
successful sortie can only be attained at the
most frightful sacrifice of life known to war
fare. 1t is indeed doubtful if Trochu will
make one. Were his troops veterans he pro-
badly would; but two months Of drilling is in
sufficient TO bring the French Gardes Mobiles
into that perfect state of discipline necessary
for 80 gigantic an enterprise. If Paris is to
be saved at all De Paladines army must be It's
savior. Should it be defeated by the COM
bined forces of the Duke of Mecklenburg and
Prince Frederick Charles the fate of the French
capital and of the French cause will be prac-
tically sealed. Such is the war situation in
France as we understand it this morning.

The PROTEST OF THE HOLY FATHER. The
Pope will not yield. He has just issued an
encyclical and bull concerning the spoliation
of the temporalities The Pope takes high
ground. The temporalities, he says, are not
his, bat Gods. He is simply trustee. What
Is not his own he cannot surrender. This is
sound logic. We are afraid, however, that, in
spite of the ''major accommodation against
the spoliators and all who are its aiders and
abettors," the temporal power is gone Tor
good. The Holy Father will do well to make
up his mind to bow to the inevitable with as
good grace as possible

QUEEN VICTORIA IN LoNDoN.--NOw that
Queen Victoria has returned from her High
land home in Scotland the presumption is
that her known love of peace will tell power
fully in the Cabinet councils. 1t will be
less difficult for her to hold communication
with her Ministers, and the probability Is thas
her womanly common sense which has so
often been so conspicuoasly revealed will pre-
vent Cabinet rupture and keep her people
out Of war.

his joys. Edmunds was insane, of course,
but had sense enough left to make good his
escape.

Racing Prospects Of the Coming Year.
The Monmouth Park Iong Branch) man
agement have issued their programme for
racing events for next summer, embracing two
meetings-one in July and the other in Au-
gust-and, judging from the judicious ar
rangement of the races to take place,
the running must be Of a superior
quality. In the July meeting there will
be seven sweepstakes, besides purses for
heats, steeple chases and hurdles. We would,
however, remind the management that post
stake in each meeting would be . great attrac-
ton. This time-honored race always found
favor with turfmen, and it should be
interest in the fact that no one can
tell what horses are to start for the
stake until the last moment, and the doubt
occasioned in this way lends great charm to
the contest. Another reason why we urge
this description Of race is that it would be
almost certain to bring a large field of horses
to the post, no matter what might be the dis
tance decided upon to be run. What adds the
most interest to this race is that nominator
Of one or more horses, should his horses not
be in condition TO run at the time specified,
can borrow from the stables Of friends to make
his nominations good, and thus insure strong
field. As we said before, we would recon-
mend a few post stakes by all the various
racing associations in the country.
The seven sweepstakes for the July meeting
are named the Jersey Derby, one mile and
half, for three -year-old colts and fillies; the
Hopeful, half mile, for two-year-olds; the
Monmouth Cup, two miles and a halt, for all
ages; the Monmouth Oaks, for three-year-old
fllies; the Long Branch, for all ages, to carry
a hundred pounds, two miles; the July, for
two-year-old colts and 6llies, three quarters Of
a mile, and the Monmouth Sequel, for colts
and FLIES three years old. This meeting will
commence on the Fourth of July and continue
five days. The August meeting will commence
on the 1st day of that month and finish on the
5th There will also be seven sweepstakes run
for at the latter meeting, comprising the Con-
tinental Hotel, for three-year-old colts and
6llies, mile heats; the Thespian, fer two-year-
old colts and FLIES, three-quarters
OF mile the MANSION house, ZOE
four-year-old colts and fllies, two mile
heats the West End Hotel, exclusively for
three-year-old FLIES, two, miles; the Au-
gust, for colts and FLIES two years old, and
the Robins, for colts and fllies three years
old. Besides the above stakes purses will be
given for races at all distances, for all ages,
dashes, heats, hurdles and steeple chases.
The added money to the sweepstakes alone
will be $4,000. All the above stakes close
ON the 1st Of February next.
The programmes Of the American Jockey
Club, the Saratoga Association, and the Mary
land Jockey Club will soon be made out, when
the owners of the high-mettled racers OF
America will be able to make selections for tbs
entries Of their colts and fillies. brilliant
racing year is predicted for 1871.

furnishes our readers with very full account
of the treatment Of the free zone in the Mexi-

abolition. The bill as amended is not yet a
law, and as President Juarez is opposed to
the continuance Of privilege which is an in

The War Cloud in Enrope-The Agitation
of the Eastern Question.

oA tnO GueSIfOns
Europe remains deeply agitated on the
Eastern question. Turkey endeavors to
maintain the equilibrium Of the Porte
Cabinet. Russia continues firm. The
Czar looks to the Treaty of Paris,
to his interests in the East, to his friends and
his enemies, their power and diplomatic dis
fractions Count Bismarck disclaims having
had any previous knowledge of the
Gortchakoff circular or its intent, and
from st. Petersburg we are told that
this blood-stirring missive was written by
the Russian Chancellor merely as a grand
ministerial bid for the retainment of
office against General Ignatieff, who
is looming up rapidly as con-
trolling mind in Russian affairs of
state. M. Theirs went to St. Petersburg, and
exercised potent influence on the policy Of
the Russian Cabinet. The consequences are. as
may be seen from our dispatches alluding to
the peace Of Europe, England is moving her
great naval force, Russia is concentrating her
troops in the Northeast. Austria presents war
budget, and in Prussia, in Berlin alone, do we
recognize either the disposition or the power,
perhaps, for a successful mediation for peace.
The solid interests Of the governments which
are likely to contend in war may cause them to
hearken to the voice of North Germany, but
should they refuse to do so it is very probable
that our cable telegram assertion that war i
imminent will prove too surely correct

AMATEUR CONCEPTS, in aid Of the sufferers
by the war in France, are multiplying.
Among those announced for this week the
concert at Chickering's Rooms, in Fourteenth
street, this evening (November 25), merits
special attention. inasmuch as it will be given
under the direction Of Signor Albites, assisted
by other eminent artists az well as by anna
teurs. A purely amateur concert, even for the
most benevolent and praiseworthy purpose,
often itself requires SO great an expenditure of
charity on the part Of the audience as to, o,leave
but little to spare for the ostensible objects of
the entertainment, so called.
