PATCHING up Differences.

Col. Forney in former years has borne the char-
acter Of bold and defiant political leader " hat-

ney, it is nevertheless changed, and he is nowtand
has been for some months engaged in strenuous
endeavors to patch up the differences among the
leaders Of the Radical party The last effort OF the
kind We see mentioned comes to Us through q cor
respondent Of the World from Washington In
that paper of yesterday it is said the two leaders
Of the two factions in the Republican party Of
Pennsylvania, Col Fornsy and Senator Cameron,
together with q number of leading Republican
Senators have by agreement "buried the hatchet
to save the State if possible for 0rant."
These efforts and the effort which Las been ma
king to place Ex-Governor CURTIN the ticket
for Vice President, show conclusvely the terrible
fear that has overtaken these prominent Radical
leaders.
They have discovered that the voice OF the peo-
pie Is no longer with them. That the corruption
which has been pructicd by the Radical party and
SO long ccnnlved at by Grant. cannot be concealed
any longer Nor will the people be willing TO trust

at Delhi. and the fact bas caused noucb

at Delhi, and the fact has caused much
uneasiness In the mind Of the natives,
who cannot understand that the great
gathering of soldiers at that point,
together with the commander-in-
chief, the viceroy, and other high per-
5onages, Is intended merely for re-
views and paredes. There are now
at Delhi %, 600 British troops, of whom
1900 are Europeans, and fifty guns.
The natives suspect trouble ahead,
and among the Mohomedans some
thing like panic exists-so much so,
indeed, that many families have Lent
the city for a safe place, after buFying
all their valuables.
The leading European powers are
somewhat anxious regarding the pur-
poses of Germany, guided by the
ambitions OF Prussia, upon the sub
bect of the suspected design Of Prussia
to mOnOpolize the Duchy and fortress
OF Luxembourg, which, of late years,
has caused so much dissensiOn in En-.
ropean circles. AS the neutrality of
Luxembourg-Which is a very i'm
portant strategical pOint-has been for
some years guaranteed by congress
OF the great powers, consisting, be-
sides Prussia, of France, Russia Aus
tria, England and Holland, and as
Germany now indicates a desire to
break the treaty on the pretext that
Luxembourg violated her neutrality
in the last war, and take possession
OF the Duchy, the parties to the con-
gress are naturally somewhat agitated
over the issue which she threatens to
make.
A murderer named Lemettre has
been tried and condemned to death in
the Assize court of the Pas de Calais,
France, whose career is perhaps un-
paralleled in the history of modern
crime. Since the wear 1884 he has
perpetrated systematically a series Of
murders, robberies, and ineendiarisms. |
He accumulated wealth from the pro.
ceeds of his robberies, and took to
himself wife on the 11th OF MAY last. |
At the wedding he had the impru.
dence to display valuable ring he had |
stolen from the Bishop Of ROuen. He
was watched by Mr.. Noyelle, whom |
he had questioned concerning the
habits of the priest, and was captured |

knoWledged his crimes,

WASHINGTON, February 11.-There
are no new developements relative
to the Treaty Of Washington, although
as has already been stated our govern
ment is not disposed to modify its
statement of the case. No formal re-
ply can be made to Lord Granville's
note to General Schenck until the ex-
act text is received, which is expected
towards the close of this week. There
has been much interest but no marked
excitement at the position of affairs,
nor apprehension that even should
England recede from the treaty re-
suits would not follow more serious in
their consequences than existed be-
fore it was negotiated. Nothing has
even been hinted in official circles
about strengthening our national de.
fences to meet possible contingency,
and no one has publicly expressed an
opinion that such measures will be-
come necessary. 1t is reported in
executive quarters that our govern
ment is willing to abide by the result
Of the tribunal of arbitration in all
matters submitted to their arbitra.
tion, andWill expect corresponding
degree of good faith on the part Of
the British government.

COLUMBIA, February ia series

trOduced in the legislature, declaring
valid all State bonds of South Caroli-
ma, included in the treasurer'S report
of October 3lst 1871, and pledging anew
the faith and credit Ofthe State for

the house, enforcing the collection
within ninety days Of overdue taxes,
amounting to eleven million dollars,
and a new tax Of four million dollars

Of the passage in the house, OF the am

tor Sumner will again offer his civil

there will be found in the SEN

vote out the amendment as not
german to the bill, or to de-
feat it by a direct party vote. Having
made their record on that question,
which was carried by the casting vote
OF the vice-president, they say its
further consideration is useless, as the
amnesty bill, which requires a two
thirds vote, cannot be passed with
such an encumbrance. Summers
