1t is curious to note in the recent dispatches
from London the evidence of the alarm of the
English lest they may be overreached by "the
Yankees" at Geneva. They have become con-
WINGED that the American counsel at Geneva
are every able men, aud at the same time they
distrust the capacity of their own representa-
tives. though one of them Is Sir Rounded
Palmer. the undisputed head OF the English
bar. Nor have Englishmen much confidence in
the arbitrators-that :, the three neutral MEM
bers of the tribunal. They seem to be divided
in their apprehensors that the treaty will be
carried out, or that 10 will fail. In the first
case they fear to be cheated, and in the second,
they dread to have the unsettled claims hang
ing over their heads to be pressed at some
inConvenient time.
The troubles of our British cousins over the
privateer business will be apt to teach them a
salutary lesson. They will not be likely here
after TO undertake to speculate upon our mis-
fortunes, or to rush too speedily to the conclu-
sion that the American Union Is going TO smash
because OF a little domestic difficulty

There is great deal of talk among saobbish
and discontented Americans Of the superior
ity of certain British institutions over similar
tues on this side of the Atlantic, aud we often
hear illusions TO the independence of the Eng
lish press and the subservience of American
journals. Like good many other statements
which are accepted as true because people won't
take the trouble 10 inquire into their accuracy
this one won't bear investigation. The fact is
American newspapers dare 70, and often do, go
directly against public sentiment, while English
journals decline to print even bare statements
Of facts which may be distastet al ID the princi-
pies of their readers. Thus, in London, Unita-
rian proceedings are always ignored. Robert
Collyer, last year, and Athanese Coquerel, ibis
year, failed to get line Of notice in any daily
On Trinity Sunday, twelve Unitarian clergy
men attacked the Athanasian creed with might
and nam. In any American city the combined
assault woulG have attracted editorial CONNIE ut
and the sermons would, probably, have been re
ported at some length. In London not q word
OF comment or Of report appeared

A morning ectemporsry says that the com
laints against the Board of Health for alleged
neglect in removing the manure piles on the
river front are grossly unjust, as they "haye
already been condemned and the health officer
instructed to require their removal" Glad to
hear IL; but we fail to see the gross injustice"
More than year ago the attention of DIR. Verdi
was called in these columns to this nuisance,
and II il little wonder that the complaints
should begin TO take a sharp turn by this time.

"Is Greeley an old fool?'' This is the ques-
ton the San Francisco papers are discussing
with heat. No, he is not an old fool, though
his notion of running for the White House
does give some color to that idea. Greeley is
well meaning old gentleman, good writer but
rather profane, an Indifferent farmer, a tenth
rate woodcutter, and about the most unprom-
sinF subject for President that the world has
ever seen.

was held in the Town Hall on Tuesday
evening, April 80, in the interest Of the

meeting organized by calling Mr.. H..
W. Smith to the chair and appointing
A. A. Allison Secretary. The Presi-
dent of the road being present, he was

not expected that much could be done
this evening, except to make arrange
ments to accomplish that end.
On motion, committee was ap-
pointed, consisting of Messrs. loci

James Kerr, to solicit stock.
A motion was made and adopted TO

WEST VIRGINIA PRESS ASSOCIATION
The meeting Of the West Virginia
Press Association yesterday drew the
editors OF the papers of this State to
our city. A brief report Of their pro-
ceedings will be found in another
column. The members Of the Asso-
citation seemed to enjoy themselves
Hugely, and especially the trip out the
National road to Elm Grove. They
designed visiting Major G. w. Franz
helm, and several OF the nail mills and
glass houses, but it was so late when
they returned from their ride that they
had to iorego the pleasure these visits
would have given them. The majority
of them returned to their homes by the
emily train.
