The Dean Richmond Explosion.

It is understood that the report Of the off,
cial investigation was completed yesterday and
forwarded to Washington. What its conclu-
sions are was not divulged but from the tenor
of the evidence elected on Friday, there can
be little reason to doubt that the inspectors
who conducted the inquiry will censuro the
use Of boilers so defective as to imperil the
lives of passengers by the hundred. That
one of the large fues should only have had
the thickness of one-sixteenth of an inch of
iron, weakened by the rusting Of months of
disuse readily enough explains the rupture.
Indeed, 1t suggests the wonder that even twenty
pounds Of steam could have been raised with
out bursting the weak tubes Public senti-
ment demands that every precaution should
be used to promote the safety of passengers.
Now the inspectors, If practical men, know
that when boat has been lying still for
months her iron is apt to be eaten by rust.
Then they owe it 10 the public and to their
sworn duty 10 insist that all boats shall have

THE RUSSIAN MARCH AGAINST KHrvA.-By
advices from Calcutta we are informed that
Russian troops were advancing on Khiva and
Kandar on the 9th of August, and that the
soldiers of the Gar had previously occupied
Urgenj and razed it to the ground. There are
two towns named Urgenj in the dominion OF
the Khan Of Khva. One is situated on the
banks of canal near the Oxus; the other
some miles northwest of Khiva. The first
enjoyed great commercial importance at one
period, and is, no doubt, the objective point
of the present march Of the soldiers of the
northern Emperor. The movement is Of very
great importance. Russia wishes, it may be,
TO seize the great Eastern hive of manufac-
ture for silk, cotton and yarn, and thus be-
come, to very great extent, independent Of
the looms Of France and England, besides
obtaining a good strategic foothold for her
armies in the event Of q war clash with the
power Of Britain in the East
The New York herald., 1872-10-06
spain-The Attitude or sagasta.

Sefior Sagasta, according to one of our
latest kilograms, has decided, with the full
consent of his party, to abstain from active
participation in political affairs 1t is only
few weeks since CASTELAR,, the acknowledged
chief of the republican party, announced a
similar intention. The Carlists and the
Montpensierists are also resolved to follow
out policy of indifference in the Cortes. To
those who know nothing of the internal con-
dition Of Spain and the workings of Spanish
politics these may seem serious and somewhat
troublous truths, but to those who know how
things are in Spain this fresh intelligence
will bring no surprise and little disappoint-
ment In view of the great fact that Zorrilla,
the present head of the Spanish Cabinet. can
confidently count on faithful two-thirds
of the Cortes, what does it matter how Sagasta
decides, whether CASTELAR, rebels, or what Don
Carlos intends? A more than two-thirds
majority makes Zorrilla master of the situa-
ton, while it justifes the judgment and
choice of the young stranger King. 1t is not
to be denied that the present Spanish govern
ment is strong. Since the attempted assassi-
nation the King has been popular, and Zorrilla
has, it must be admitted, caught the popular
sentiment of the hour. While, however, we
admit the popularity of the King and the sue
cess of his chosen Minister, we cannot say
that we are satisfied that Spain has seen the
end of her troubles. In Spain officials are
numerous and elections can be manipu-
lated This is always bad fact
against the government of the day in Spain.
The Church, we know, is against the present
government; and the Church is, in reality,
the greatest unit of power in Spain. The
Church detests the Savoyard; it little likes the
republicans, but it is the great power behind
Don Carlos. When The Cortes meets we shall
look for sharp fighting. Our best hopes may
be blasted Amadeus may find Zorrilla as
weak as he found Sagasta; change of
Ministry may be the fruit of the first week;
and it will not be wonderful if the first month
gives us a change of Ministry and possibly a
fresh election. We look forward anxiously to
the reassembling of the Cortes If Amadeus
can weather another Winter in Spain his
dynasty is secure.
The New York herald., 1872-10-06
Imperial Russia and Republican
France.

France.
The Russian Ambassador in the French capt.
tai has, it is said, received Cabinet note from
draw the congratulations which he lately pre-
sented to President Theirs in the name of the
Gar, and also to assure the chief of the
French executive of s'the dissatisfaction of His
Majesty Alexander at the aggressive attitude
of the radical party in France" This news is
really important if it be exactly correct as
stated. It goes to show that the impe-
rialist assemblage in Berlin was not,
after all, mere affair of pomp
and vanity, but deliberate coalition of the
great military monarchies undertaken with
the intent Of pitting the governmental system
by ''divine right" against that of the democ-
racy as established in France under the proc
lamation that the vor p0puR is the UoI
Del, and superior, consequently, to the tradi-
tional assumption of heavenly authority to
the Crowns. President Theirs cannot control
the tendency of the political will of the people
of France. He is himself merely venerable
embodiment of the revolutionary principle vim
dicaisi to grand public triumph after the en-
durance of years of fearful battle and of intense
sorrow by the people. The Gar would ap-
pear rude in the eyes of the world to despatch
such message couched in language such as
we quote from the cable telegram. But even
monarchs can be rude at times. Witness Ma
poleons sudden rebuff to the Austrian Minister
at the Tuileries, and on New Years Day, too,
when the French ruler had decided on the war
which was terminated at Villafrnnca. We can
scarcely believe, Notwithstanding, that the
Emperor of Russia has been chosen for the
hazardous duty of throwing down the gauntlet
of monarchical insult and defiance to the dem
ocracies of Europe in the moment Of their new
inspiration from Paris. Still less can we be-
lieve that His Majesty has accomplished the
fact in such deliberately pointed manner.

Trade Marks-ImpOrtan Decision or
the Subject.

A st. Louis miller sought to register as his
trade mark q brand in which the familiar
Masonic symbols of the square and compass
are combined with the name of the streets in
which his mills are located On appeal from
the decision of the Examiner of Trade Marks
the case went before Acting Commissioner
Thacher who has just affirmed the judgment
against the applicant. In support of his posi-
ton he states that the words of the brand do
not come within the legal definition as con-
stituting trade mark, being ueither the name
of any person, firm or corporation, nor de-
is placed. With reference to the Masonic en-
blems used the Commissioner suggests that
the antiquity and widespread existence of the
fraternity and its flourishing condition might
be considered to Withdraw its universally rec
ognized symbols from the category of devices,
whose use could be appropriated as exclusive
property of individuals and endowed with the
sanctions and privileges OF registered trade
mark. In the craft these figures are under
stood 10 have certain mystic Specification. To
connect the commodities of manufacture there
with might be held by some to give them a
certain qualification or endorsement, while by
others it might be held to establish an unde-
srable suggestion of matters repulsively occult
and forbidding. To use such recognized sym
bols as trade marks would constantly work de-
sanctioned they would defeat the object of the
merchant, which is to enlarge and advance his
trade.
The New York herald., 1872-10-06

which promise such grand results for our
commerce with other nations and our trade at
home. The work ON the parks and streets
and boulevards must not be stopped, and it
must not lack the oversight of an active and
efficient Mayor. In hundred ways is the
Mayoralty more important than ever and
rich and poor are alike interested in it, be-
cause our whole population is equally in
terested in the progress and prosperity of
New York
In this connection we do not urge the
'claims" of any man for Mayor. The interests
of the people are too nearly allied to the
peoples choice to make the ''claims' Of any
man worthy of a moments consideration. But
the Mayoralty has claims upon the citizen if
the citizen has no claims upon the Mayoralty.
We want the best man for the place at this
particular time, and we ask all the rest to
stand aside. Many good men have been sug-
gested, but Mr.. Duncan fills the whole bill
more nearly than any of the others For this
reason, and for the additional one that he is
generally acceptable to the earnest, working
progressive men of the city. we have
supported ana urged nlS nOmlnhtlOn.
The other day we printed the opinions Of o
number of the leading members of the Com
mittee of Seventy, generally acquiescing in the
choice of Mr. Duncan for Mayor. To-day we
publish the views of some of our principal
bankers and presidents of banks, and these it
will be found accord with the opinions of the
more active politicians among our business
men. On every hand it is conceded that no bet
ter selection can be made, and it is unmstak-
ably the true interests of the city that men of
all parties who are the true friends of reform,
and at the same time of wise and progressive
policy, should unite upon him. Politics are
out Of the canvass and reform and progress
are the watchwords Wemust go forward and
not backward, that our city may fulfil its des-
tiny and not fall short of its greatness and
glory. The election for Mayor this year is
crisis in the history of New York, and its re-
suit will be signal for narrowness and parsi-
mony or for renewed progress and prosperity

Coal FIELDS IN AsA.-From Calcutta we
are informed that coal has been found in Tur-
kistan, near the Yusaf Pass, and that three
hundred camel loads of the fuel had just been
delivered at Kabul for use in the Ameer s
foundries. This fact will have a very i'm
portant effect, not only on the progress of the
work of developing the industrial resources of
the far East, but also in abating the current
exigency which prevails in the law Of supply
and demand as regards the article of coal all
over the world.

'THE EYES OF DELAWARE. The repubG-
can organs are boasting that in their ''little
election" in Delaware the other day they re-
duced the democratic majority of 1000 in
1870 down to 50. Can it be possible that the
'eyes of Delaware are closed and that she is
sleeping with the Bourbons?
