The regularity and rapldity with
which our government is diminish.
ing the national debt is a subject of
wonder to intelligent Englishmen.
The Birmingham (Eng.) Post, re-
ferring to the new loan, says: "All
the advices from London speak of
the success Of the seventy five mill
ion United States loan as already
secured. A Government which has
within five years redeemed nearly
five hundred millions of the obliga.
tons created in the conduct of a
great war, and which has at the
same time largely cut down the tis.
cal burdens of the people, stands in
position which investors know
hew to appreciate.

An important smuggling case was
lately decided in the United States
Court for the Northe. riot of
New York. Certain parties coming
from Canada had refused to allow
their baggage to be inspected by
the Customs officer. whercupon the
pieces were seized, opened, and
found to contain some dutiable ar
ticles, besides $1,000 in coin and
bills. Suit was brought for the for
fixture of ali the contents of the
bags, under the act of June y, 1864,
which provides, that if any person
refuses to allow any package to be
inspected, it shall be opened, and
if found to contain dutiabIe goods,
the whole contents shall be forfeited.
In this case the attempt to smuggle
into the United States one shawl
and one silk dress cost the defend
ants over o. 200.

At the close of the afternoon per
formances of Grandy'S circus in Co
lumbus, Ohio, Mr.. Charles Fisher,
made an ascent in a huge hot-a
balloon, or rather the balloon went
up with Fisher dangling to couple
of ropes suspended from below
Immediately blue smoke was seen
to issue from point on the side of
the balloon, about one third of the
way up from the mouth to the top.
Experienced eyes at once detected
that the balloon was on fire, but the
9ronaut, all unconscious of his dan.
ger, went on with his frightful per.
Torrance on the trapeze. When the
balloon was | 800 feet in the air, the
flames were seen to burst suddenly
from its side, and simultaneously a
cry of horror went up from the crowd
below. Many turned away Their
eyes, and one woman tainted, all
expecting that Fisher would at once
Inject a horrible death. But whe,h
er it was t.Iat the material of the
balloon WAS not very intiamable, OF
that the hot air near the fame was
not favorable to C. mhustiOn, certain
it is that the balloon did not burn
rapidly, and the aronaut landed
safely vi Oh the top Of slaughter
house, near the end of Hooking Val
ley bridge over the Scioto, while the
burning balloon Lit in the river, the
waters of which speedily extin-
guished the flames.

GUNS VERSUS TARGETS.-Sail0rS
may well feel uncomfortable. The
II inch muzzlc. loading riiled gun of
% tons, at range of 200 yards, has
sont a Palliser shell straight through
the side of "a target considerably
stronger than the broadSide of any
iron clad now afloat. On this Oc.
casion, moreover, tie gun used a
reduced charge of IS lbs, its full
charge being 50 lbs. 1t may fairly
he expected, therefore, that the en-
ployment of the full charge would
ensure the same result at a range of
over 1000 yards. The target in
question consists of solid wrought
iron plate Of eight inches in thickas
ness, backed by double layer of 6
inch balks of teak timber, a solid
wrOught.iron plate of five inches in
thickness being worked between the
layers Of timber. There is also an
inner skin of 9 inch iron, and
the usual iron ribs. This amounts
to a total OF Is inches Of armor and
- inches Of backing, exclusive of
the skin. The confusion caused be.
tween decks by the bursting of
53Olb. shell, in addition to the show.
er of fragments from the gaping
hole in the vessels side may well
be imagined.

The Albany, N. Y, Evening
Journal closes a long article review
ing General Buffers speech at
Springfield, in these cutting terms !:
"Ben. Butler complains that he,
a Republican, should be condemned
by Republicans. With what grace
does this complaint come from him?
Does he show any regard for the
party? Does he scrupic to strike at
honored Republicans through any
concern for its welfare9 COarsely
and vindictively assailing repre-
sentative leaders, whenever it suits
his malice, what claim has he to eX.
rmption +! CONTEMPORARY splitting
upon the principles of the party.
and utterly oblivious to its moral
character, how can he shield him
self under an invocation of The par.
tvs welfare i? He who is bound by
no code of politica! fidelity, and 10
creed of political principles-how
shall he escape from the Just rebuke
of his lawless and shameless coll
duet under the mantle of party in
tcrest! We trust the Republicans
of Massachusetts will neither be
bulIied by his threats nor deceived

BRADFORD, FRIDAY, SEPT. 8. 1871.
No Democratic I'OiicU Yet.

We had really supposed that the
Democratic party, at least of the
North, had come to an agreement
upon one feature Of policy, namely,
that known as the "new departure"
When men like the late Mr.. Vallan.
disham, Mr.. Pendlcton and Mr..
Seymour appeared to unite in TAX
ing a certain direction, in company
with Chief Justice Chase, Mr. Hen
bricks and john Quincy Adams
to say nothing about the Young
Mems Democratic Club of Boston -
we supposed that the decision of the
party was foreshadowed, and it was
to be henceiorth all plain sailing
Senator Blair, indeed, soon said 9th
crwise, but as he is constitutonally
fractions, little account was made of
his remonstrance. Now, however,
we have the fierce dissent of Sena-
tor Thurman Of Ohio, generally con
sidered the ablcst representative of
his party in the United States Sen
ate. In recent speech he wanted
to know if no should see man
strike another in an unlawful and
brutal manner in the street, throttle
him and knock him down, and tres
pass upon his rights, and he, (Thur-
man), should say that the man was
down and bleeding, "who," he asked,
"would call that a confession that
the villain who had outraged him
had done what was right !" This
indign't question, strangely enough,
was greeted with "IaughteI,' which
ought to have been reserved for the
Senator's application of his high
wayman illustration to the case OF
the Republicans, who, lie declared,
had "throttled the Constitution and
ruined the peace of the cOuntryw
Senator Thurman then went on to
record his objections in detail to the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments. The entranchisement of the
negroes under the latter he regard
ed as ''perfectly monstrOus." 1t is
of minor consequence, however, why
this leading Democrat refuses to &C.
IuieSce in these cOnstitU tiOnal
amendments; the significant thing
is, that he openly bolts the "new
departure" in the very home of its
origin. AS another distinguished
Democrat has said A.: the new scheme
