CUBA-A FAIR OPENING FOR INDRpEN-
DENoE.-Captain General De Rodas has just
returned to Havana, and the campaign against
the Cubans may fairly be considered as at an
end, for the present, at least. Looking at the
late campaign from an unprejudiced stand
point we cannot help coming to the conclusion
that while the Spaniards have accomplished
little with well equipped and well disciplined
soldiers, the Cubans, lacking these, have been
able not only to hold their own, but to gain
little. Lately the Cubans in the Eastern
Department have been active. So much 30, In

the Spanish generals. Where the reinforce

to say. 1t is out Of the question to think that

can forward them. Now Is the time fef The

ported that he will to-day, at the meeting OF the

Will state that inasmuch he failed to receive the
sympathy and support Of his subordinates, many Of
whom have endeavored in various ways to render
more onerous the arduous duties Of his ONCE since
his appointment as superintendent he cannot longer
remain In chief command. He will also complain
of general apathy and lack Of discipline, which
he has been endeavoring to remedy, but with
out effect, owing to the envy and Jealousy
OF some OF the police captains, who have bit
tery opposed him since his promotion to the office
OF superintendent Of Police. Another for the
resignation Is that he is not consulted by the Board
In the selection OF captains and sergeants and off,

tho Work or the Session.

C0ugrcss-Tho Cl0sing ecencs-Reviow Of
tho Work or tho Session.
The Forty-nrst Congress, which has through
out its two sessions led life of laundering,
closed Its career yesterday In series Of blum
ders betting its whole course. It was to have
adjourned at twelve o'clock, but it extended
the session until two and then again until Eve,
when it succeeded in dissolving Its too solid
flesh. Its members are now on the way home
to present the record of their doings to their
constituents, and upon that record seek . re-
election. The chief business concocted yes
terday was q compromise between the two
Houses on the Indian question, the lower
House consenting to the six million dollars
appropriation, provided the Senate will not
take its acquiescence as an affirmation Of the
justice or expediency Of Indian treaties. The
most Of the time, however, was consumed In
discussing the Presidents message regarding
the war In Europe and the increase Of our
mercantile marine and, to cap the climax Of
blunders, both Houses adjourned without legis-
lating on the subject.
A review of the session shows very few
broad measures completed. The bill to en-
force the Fifteenth amendment is the only one
of enough interest in 1t to call for any popular
demonstrations, and it was almost exclusively
bill, excellent in its provisions when first pre-
sented, was shorn Of Its strength by modifying
amendments, and as q law Is almost useless
The Georgia bill has finally been passed, but no
credit can be due to Congress for passing it SO
long after it should have been passed. The
bill reducing taxation serves that specific pur-
pose very well so far as the quantity of taxa
ton reduced is concerned; but as the income
tax, although in modified form, is retained,
it is not very choice as to the quality Of taxes
reduced. The Currency bill, mere measure
Of contraction, is highly Objectionable, while
the Funding bill, which should have prepared
q well defined way for funding the debt, is
merely a nullity. The Appropriation bills,
being routine legislation, should have been
prepared with care; but instead of that as
passed, they are crowded with jobbery; and
one of the most important-the Indian Appro-
priation bill-has been delayed so long over q
mere theoretical difference that it Is now the
merest makeshift, passed in hurry to secure
an adjournment.
There are other important bills which the
Congress has not succeeded in passing. The
Pension bill for Mrs. Lincoln is one of these,
and not the least. Tho rejection Of the St.
Domingo treaty, the suubbing Of Denmark in
regard to st. Thomas, are serious blunders,
while the imprisonment Of Pat Woods and the
cadetship Investigations are matters which
would be serious il they were not ridiculous.
Altogether, the Forty-6rst Congress has Stun
bled and blundered blindly through its two
sessions to an adjournment sine die, and we
hope the coming elections will SO far change
the personnel Of the Forty-second Congress as
to greatly improve the character of the pro-
ceedings.

ITALY AND THE PoPE.-The war situation in
Europe raises the question about Italy and the
Pope. If France wins, France remains the
undisputed head of the Latin races. Italy,
Spain, Portugal, so long at least as Napoleon
lives, must look to France for orders; and
Rome will continue to be the property of the
Pope. If Prussia wins, Italy will rise as o
unit and make Rome once more It's capital
city. In the latter case what is to become of
the Pope? VIII he go to Malta or come
to Fort Washington? The generous English
people have offered him Malta. We have
offered him Fort Washington. The govern
ment house at Malta would not DO bad
exchange for the Vatican, nor would st. Johns
Cathedral be bad substitute for st. Peters
1t is our opinion that Fort Washington and our
magnificent new st. Patricks Cathedral would
be more to his taste than anything that Malta
offers. But he can make his choice.

Tho European War in Wall Street.

The union established between the money
centres of the world bythe agency of the cleo
trio telegraph has brought them in such close
relations that disturbance of one is felt by
sympathy throughout them all. Hence when
Europe is agitated by war Wall street is quick
to reflect the effect. Our growing tendency to
greater independence Of such influences has
had signal illustration, however, in the last
few days. The European war of 1866 sent
gold dancing up from 1875 to 1879. News
just as startling and more important, for the
reason that two greater countries are at war,
meets with more obstinate gold premium
in these days. Since 1865 the United
States have taken position among the leading
nations of the world. Our trade and COM
merce are on q gigantic scale. The national
credit has so wonderfully appreciated that
gold Is not so sensitive as it was few years
ago. As we increase the period since the war
we grow strong in geometrical progression.
Gold is the measure of our financial relations
with other countries It Is evident to every
one that with war abroad. and with the pros
tration Of the Industries Of the two greatest
nations Of Europe, our credit advances
by comparison. Hence the slow re-
suits which follow the efforts of the gold
gamblers In Wall street to get up sensation.
As compared with ordinary times the Gold
Room is just now busy places but the most
interested must confess that there Is lethargy
in gold, and that the advance has been at
tanned only by prodigious efforts and by i'm
mense speculative purchases. It is contrary
to all logic that gold should be dearer and that
our national credit should depreciate with the
Franco-P russian war. The present furry over
we shall behold the working of the inevitable
laws that govern the questions of finance.
