Washington, November 1.-THE only
report OF any head of department com.
pleted is that of the Secretary of War,
Inc others are in state of forwardness.
Nearly all the reports of the chiefs of
Bureaus have been sent to the public
printer. The President has recently been
arranging the points for his message. but
has not yet commenced writing it.
Some of the contents of the document
can be inferred only from his recent private
utterances, and 1t is safe to say that it will
De more liberal in its tone, especially
towards the South, than his former mes
sages the recent vote in that section being
indicative of q better feeling than hereto
fore toward the general government, while
the press is more moderate in its utter
ances, not taking into account the popular
majority of the entire country.
The recent pardon of Appleton Oaksmith
is regarded by Southern gentlemen as show
ing more friendly policy, and as forshad-
owing the Executive action relative to some
OF the ku-klux prisoners now serving out
their sentences in the Albany peniten-
tiary.
American Patents in Austria.
Washington, November 17.-Many in
ventors of the United States have expressed
their reluctance to contribute to the Vienna
Exposition for the reason that owing to the
stringent character of the patent laws of
Austria, American patentees would have
no remedy against the appropriation of
their improvements by persons of other
nationalities without compensation. In
order to overcome this difficulty orr gov
eminent yesterday prepared the project of
treaty or convention between the United
States and Austria, in order to secure in
that country the right of American inven-
tors to the same extent that Austrian inyen-
tors are protected under our laws in
our own country. 1t is the design to Law
this proposition before the Austrian govern.
ment at the earliest practicable period, and
the telegraph may be used to facilitate the
negotiations. Should this measure be con-
summated our government will propose to
the various nations of Europe that some
international arrangement be made to
secure the rights of inventors of the re-
spective countries, under similar circum-
stances. ..

FRANCE.

Paris, November 1S.-In all the Cathe-
drals of France yesterday, special prayers
were offered for the National Assembly,
and the blessing of God was invoked on
its proceedings. The government officials
attended the services, escorted by detach-
ments of troops as guards of honor. The
congregations in all the churches in this
city were very large.
The several parties into which the AS
sembly is divided had meetings Saturday
night to sum up the events of the past
week, and decide upon their future poll
cies. The monarchists confess that they
have been defeated, and will secure on
honorable retreat by giving their support
to the conservative Republicans. All the
conservative elements have been united in
favor of a motion, which will be intro
duced this week by Deputy Changarnier,
condemning Gambetta's speech at Tours.

should do the business with at least apparent
fairness.
Mr. Boutwell, seems to believe that he can
regulate financial affairs by selling sold and
buying bonds; and though he has not met
with remarkable success thus far, we are in
clined to think that if the business wcra
managed with intelligence and integrity
it would probably succeed. If Mr..
Boutwell, really believes in the efficacy
of his panacoa, why does he not announce a
bold programme and adhere TO it, so that all
who wish TO buy gold or sell bonds may DO
equally informed as to bis inteltions2 Docs
anybody suppose that the merchants who
bought gold on Friday and Saturday last at
ll4i to 1lJ would have purchased tbcn had
they known that the Government would
sell 5J,0OOOOO on MoRday2 And why we're they
not at least rs much entitled 10 know it AZ
were mere speculatOrs WhO knowing what was
to happen, sold gold on those days for future
delivery Mr. Boutwell,, on the first Of tho
present month, announced that he would
sell each week Sl,COOOCO gold and puT-
chase an equal amount Of bonds. Ilo
has already during the first week sold S6OO0Co)
gold and purchased Ss,0OO0o) Of bonds
We do not object t. large sales Of gold Whel
we have it in abundance In fact we hayo
sometimes urged such a cOHrse upon the Sec
retary. We only insist that no shall do tho
business in such manner as to give all an
equal chance. There are people 50 uncharila-
bic as to intimate that the elections to tako
place to-day influenced Mr. BoutwelI5 act!O.,
and that he cares very litdo about tho neces-
sites Of the commercial community. But tIo
Georgia Bond Man and his friends bling to
bear the influences which unlock the Treasury;
and having assurances beforehand Of what is to
be done, they are enabled to make a nice thing
of it by purchasing stocks and selling gold on
Friday and Saturday in advance Of the
public.
The effect of this coup d'6i0t was TO advance
stocks from one to three per cent, and to de-
press gold about one per cent. 1t Is confidently
believed by Intelligent men in the Street
that the profits on the purchase and
sale OF stocks and gold by those who
were in the secret of the Treasury movement
cannot be less than one million of dollars.
1t is confdentially whispered that if the State
elections to-day result adversely TO the Admin
istration, the Government will sell gold and
lock up currency to tighten the money market,
and thus make it appear that the mercantile
world is frightened by the prospects OF Mr..
Greeley's election.
New-York tribune., 1872-10-08

country. The Mobile RcgiSter exposes a fabri-
cation by three cOlored men' Of Mobile, who
have issued an address to tho rural districts
complaining that the privilege of free speech
is denied them, because there was a slight
fracas the other night at public meeting IN
their city. The truth is that these men them
selves, with an organization to which they
have given the name Of the National Guard,
attacked meeting and for a few minutes broke
it up; that the only persons injured were
whites that some colOred men who attempted
to magnify the affair into political riot have
been committed for trial on a charge or per-
Jury and that the orator whose speech was
interrupted and the Radical paper of the city
both acknowledged that it was not disturb
ance for which white men were in any way
responsible. Nay, more, tho very signers OF
this circular have publicly confessed the same
thing.
We might afford TO laugh at the prepos-
terous efforts of the Grant organs and orators
to explain the Liberal strength by such tales
MS these but behind the desire to soften the
effect of the majOritics against them, there is
fear of q purpose, should tO-day's elections
result in favor of Mr.. Greeley, to seize the
Southern States by military force. Ono oil
John Thomas's roorbacks viii do as well as
any other lie as an excuse for proclalming
martial law and we shall not be surprised ii
tomorrow the tales of The N. ]. Times become
more horrible than ever, and John Thomas
send up cry for troops. Certainly Grant
cannot be reelected by a fair vote OF the peo-
pie; and we have too much reason to appre-
hend that his friends viii stop at no rascality
to keep him in Office by some other means.
New-York tribune., 1872-10-08
MILE WAN1LD.

There is a mysterious and sphinx-like COM
mercial gentleman doing business OF some
kind here in New-York, of whom we only
know so much that we ardenty desire to
know more. He is frequently mentioned in
the Southern and Western newspapers as
"tbe eminent merchant of New-York who
"says, IF Grant is beaten l will shut up my
"sbop at once.,n Now who is this far-seeng
and sagaciOus person Can it be the Georgia
Bond Mani Can it be Pig-lron Pope 7
What kind of a shop does the gentleman
kcep2 What does he deal in which it will be
impossible for him to deal in if DR.. Grant
should be forced to retire from the national
chair 2 That's what we want to know.
We can imagine the contempt with which
real men of business read or listen to silly
threats of stopping business which now and
then man who mixes politics with his
private affairs permits himself to utter. Those
who depend upon the help of President to
keep them from insolvency may stop business
when MI. Greeley is elected, and for a very
good reason but no good, sound, solid mer-
chant gets himself into such hObble that the
defeat of this or that candidate can prevent
him from paying his notes, and when parti-
san commercial man allows his tongue to talk
of suspending business, it is not improbable
that he may be looking out for some good
excuse for suspending; and his creditors on
their side had better look out for him.
We should be willing to make small
wager that there is not merchant in
New-York who has contemplated a suspension
of his business in case of Mr.. Greeley's elec-
ton. We do not believe that such can be
found; or, if found, we do not believe that
he will turn out to be respectable man in
good credit now. And if any man shall be
heard talking in such silly style, our advice
to those unfortunate enough to hold his paper
is to get it shaved at once, and at any rate of
discount, however awful.
