The Vintage in Europe.

According to a circular Of AIcssrs. Groves
& Co., the vintage in most Of the winc-prO-
ducinS countries has this year been very
unsatisfactory. OF Bordeaux wines the
Department Of the Gironde will, il is csti-
mated, produce barely onc-half az ordinary
yield, and the quality will undoubtedly be
quite mediocre, the best that can be said of
them being that they are not SO bad as those
of 1850 OF 1866. The champagne vintage
has been most disastrous, and the wines are
the worst that have been made since 1866.
The burgundy wines are exceedingly info
rjor aud the quantity is very deficient. OF
those IF Koussilton the report is simIar,and
from the Rhine and MoSellc the accounts
are equally urfavorable.-L0ndOH Times.

To war-worn abolitiOnists it must be re-
freshening to read this message, wherein

with recommendations that our citizens
be forbidden to hold slaves in countries
where human bondage is stilllegal, cOngrat-
ulations on the initiation of enfranchise-
ment in Brazil, hopes that the process may
be fastened, complaints that Spain's SEM
blance of emancipation in Cuba and Porto
Rico is mOckery, &C., are SO prominent.
We judge that our relations with Spain
are more critical than the Presidents
guarded language would indicate
otherwise, we should strenuOusly OBJ
ject to his endorsement of Secretary
RobeSon's suggestion as to the necessity
for increasing and improving the material
of the navy" We protest against such any
increase. The Presidents recommendations
that the internal taxes be swept away, eN-
cept those known as stamps, and those
levied on liquors and tobacco, will meet
with general approval. May we not hope
that Congress will act promptly and Edecid-
edly on this recommendation AS to tariff
revision, the President reflects very nearly
tie average sentiment Of the people. But
We guess his true friends in Congress will
make haste slowly i'll reducing the revenue
from this source. With regard to the Kll-
KluX OutrageS, we wish the Presi-
dent had seen fit, moreover, to indicate his
adherence Of the caTpet-bag villainies
whereby several Southern States have been
! impoverished and their credit broken down
! -villainies which partially explain but i'll
no manner excuse the crimes of the kll-
KluX providers.

this, for we warned him of it personally Il
year ago, and then advised him that the
people would not stand it.
We have some plain structures to offer on
civil service reform, but thes" can wait.
